Someone Around You Might Be Dying Without Your Knowledge

Sometimes I wonder if you understand what it means for people around you to really be lonely. If you do, you’d possibly judge them less than you do.

Some people have found themselves in relationships they know are killing them gradually, yet they have difficulty walking away simply because the ‘relationships’ are meeting a need (though it’s at the expense of other needs).
People (not just girls) want to feel loved, wanted and also have a sense of belonging in a moving world. While there may be several reasons for this social vulnerability in people, I am quite particular that family has a huge role to play. Admittedly, not all parents of the current generation were basically educated on personality development and formation of growing children, and the bond-fostering impact of ‘family-hood’ (pardon that word). Hence, most parents have little contact with the true needs of their children. But I get confused when even siblings create gullies between themselves. These gullies create siblings fragmentation leaving some lonely, yet within families. Why?
The ‘bird of prey’ would come in the form of succour to a deep-seated need that often eludes the daily companions of the target person. The ‘hawk’ comes and makes a ‘kill’, and the society and family calls him either a paedophile of gold digger of some sort. You wonder why in some cases, the victims were willing to play along and keep it secret for as long as the emotional opium is offered by the predator of the conscience who first came with ‘good intentions’ (at least to the poor judgement of the minor).
Later we read of suicide, and rapes, and murders, and hyper-sexuality, and a lot more, yet these lived with us. The only problem being that communication doors were either shut or narrowed. The explosive desires burning in the young gets harvested by a beast out there looking for whom to devour.
Please permit people (both around you & strangers) be free to open up to you and pour out their hearts with assurance their information is safe. We’ll save far more people in 2020 whom the enemy has desired to take away through suicide if we show our willingness to be involved in some more lives. Sometime what they need is just someone patient enough to listen. In such cases, never be in a rush; allow them to ‘take your time’.
You can save someone by being a listener; a good listener, not necessarily a good speaker

The New Year; The Prophecy and You

Random image. Not related to characters in the writing

At the beginning of 2019, while preachers were prophesying to their diverse audience, one pastor’s prophecy wasn’t welcomed with excitement by his audience.
Grabbing the mic he screamed

“in 2019, you shall reap what you sow…!”
The place was quiet. He said
“I know you heard me. You shall reap what you sow…!”

The congregation was uncomfortable with the ‘prophecy’.
They wanted something else; something more appealing to the ears. But that man was only quoting scriptures (Gal. 6:7).

People don’t even want to know if what was proclaimed the previous year came to pass or not. They don’t want to ask themselves questions regarding ‘failed prophecies’. They just love the forceful sound of
‘…this year, you shall …’
without paying close attention to what roles they have to play.
Furthermore, if your love for the ‘AMENs’ is greater than your willingness to take responsibility for yourself, you’re likely trapped in a circle of December-January disappointment and ambitions.

Adults ask questions; children’s gullibility questions nothing. This is a sign a majority is not ‘grown up’ in spiritual matters. It takes more than feeling good to have a great year. Someone, somewhere has to be responsible for something, if someone must have a great year.
