Food for thought, Naija we hail thee

Copied as received [8/24,*The writer is quite blunt and equally right to a great extent*. The Nigerian Pastor won't talk about Usain Bolt or Serena Williams. They won't talk about late Dora Akunyili or Tony Elumelu. The Nigerian pastor wont talk about Steve Jobs or the young people in Silicon Valley reshaping our world. They won't talk about young American scientists spending endless hours in search of a cure to a disease that's predominantly in the Tropical African region. The Nigerian pastor won't talk about Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie or Ben Okri. In every corner of the world, there exist young men and women who has defiled all odds and became successful through hardwork, creativity and dedication... The Nigerian pastor won't talk about them......neither will he ask his members to emulate the spirit of these individuals. He would rather talk about sister Agatha who got a job she WAS NOT THE MOST QUALIFIED because she prayed and fasted in line with their church program. *Or* Brother John who became a millionaire because he used all his salary as a seed in the church. Or Papa Miracle who he laid his hands on and 3 of his children got admission in the university *Or* Mama Esther paid her tithe and her business started growing everywhere across the nation......no business plan, just boom, everywhere. This has led to a new breed of mentally lazy young people who now see God as a rewarder of mediocrity. To the Nigeria Pastor, the only way to prosper is by paying your tithe and sowing seeds in the church. So they will never talk about those who has through hardwork and dedication placed theirselves in the world map. No......the Nigeria God only blesses the first 30 people that rush to the altar to drop 100,000 as seed. The Nigeria God abhors hardwork and creative thinking, He only gives to those who sow seeds and offerings......and those who shout "I am a millionaire" every morning and do nothing the rest of the day. Continue.... You want God to come down and help you use the talent He gave you and bless you because you are going to church to shout "Daddy, I receive it" You all jokers. Can someone tell these jokers that irrespective of your creed, faith or religion, blessings and favours follows you once you start using your talent and become useful to your society. God doesn't owe you 1kobo. (Afterthought : There is still the place of *grace* but grace provokes action. The Holy Spirit is a creative Spirit, you can't be in Him and be lazy, remember He hovered over the waters releasing dunamis immediately the Father spoke the Word. Hard Work is a principle and God honours it, remember that while the earth remainth seed time and harvest shall not cease). God bless you. I believe the writer is right and I decide to share it with you... *God cannot be mocked, whatsoever a man sow, he shall reap*. [8/24, 11:39]. The free fall of Naira did not happen overnight.
