We are all aware of the fact that every thing we come in contact with, serves a
purpose. Newer things are created and designed each day probably to
increase the efficiency and benefit us to the maximum. The same
is true when it comes to human lives. We train ourselves in a particular
skill and competency to perform a specific job that may help us in our
survival. But then, what are we known for as a person?
It is a known fact that the
Lion, the king of the jungle is known for never feeding on a dead carcass.
It is only known to hunt a live animal and tear the flesh with its
fangs. The eagle too is known for soaring 10, 000 feet above sea level.
And the eagle (especially bald eagle) is known to mate and remain
with that same partner all its life.
What are you known for? What
are your convictions? What are your beliefs? What are you known for
that will determine your impact in life? And that has a larger impact on
your belief system on God.
This example is stated by
Paul Enenche, MD, which makes so much of sense. “When you are flying in an airplane and you look down
from the window you will see the river crooked. Do you know why? It is because
it wants to take the path of least resistance. So, it gives this way and that;
always shifting direction. If you are not a person of conviction, your life
will be crooked.”. Your conviction is primarily sourced from a God
who adds value to mankind and impacts harmony and peace and not confusion at
all cost.
A man with a strong
conviction makes up his mind on what to do, and once he is convinced that it is
the right thing to do, he does not change his mind about it, even if he gets
hurt doing it. The Bible poses a question in a passage this way, “Who shall
dwell with God? “He that walketh uprightly, and practices righteousness,
speaking the truth from sincere heart, who keeps his word whatever the cost.”.
May we be known for living a
just life, impact love, influence peace and promote brotherhood.
