Do you know most of the things we see today in the nations of the world are harvests of the decisions that were made in years gone by? The state of a nation today is, more often than not, a product of the choices, decisions, and actions of past governments.
For many, their national anniversary has become a time to reflect on the past and wish for “the good old days.” Many wonder how the state of their economies remains comatose after so many years of self-determination. Well, it may be a fact that your nation has been dominated by governments that have been indifferent to the needs of its people, but you have to make a personal choice to move forward from that. Rather than join the band of critics, naysayers, and rabble-rousers blaming and fighting their governments over the state of affairs in the country, I challenge you to be a solution-provider.
Create around you a joyful atmosphere for change, as you celebrate the hope of the glorious future that lies ahead. Be glad about the opportunities you have to make a change, and take advantage of them. If we all make the right and proper investments with the time we have today, we will reap the harvest of a more prosperous tomorrow. That hope of a better future is in itself worth celebrating.
Prayer
Blessed heavenly Father, I thank you for anointing my eyes to see great opportunities of service around me. Through me, my nation is positioned for success and greatness as I recognize the human needs around me, and reach out to meet those needs, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
