“By
faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had
received the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son” Hebrews
11:17.
Every human being has limitations, but you
can remove your limitations, perpetuate your remembrance and keep living in the
minds of men. First, through your record breaking exploits and second, by
reproducing yourself in others. Nothing
is worse than coming to this world and leaving no trace behind. Life
is all about impact, which means making the desired mark or leaving it better
than you met it.
There are many walking corpses – those who, though alive, have no
impact on humanity. And there are many though dead, but still speaking through
the work they did while alive. The lives they lived and the changes they
effected during their life time are loud voices speaking on their behalf. Who
can forget William
Shakespeare, a renowned and veteran
author? Who can pretend not to have read or heard about Christopher Columbus, the man who through his voyage and expedition discovered America?
Rahab’s name became prominent in Jewish history, and was referred to in
the scriptures till today by her simple act of offering protection to the spies
sent by Moses. “By faith the
prostitute Rahab, because she welcomed the spies was not killed with those who
were disobedient” (Hebrews
11:31).
You may not be an author or inventor but you can do things worth
writing about. When you make a major discovery, make an invention or establish
institutions that bless generation, then you have become a pillar of reference.
These you can do irrespective of your sex, age, tribe or education. You can
become a hero from zero level. Whenever possible, document your exploits.
Record keeping is very crucial. Whatever you know or has must be passed on to
others. This is how to work beyond your times.
God will put you in the middle of a major breakthrough. Your
generation will read your history. Wake up now, think and do something. Welcome
to another new day.
