IN ALL THINGS, GIVE THANKS TO GOD
Let me tell you a story about two intimate friends namely Agya and Kofi. They went for hunting in a very deep forest in Africa.
In the course of their hunting activities, Agya regrettably gunned down Kofi in
a sultry afternoon. Although Kofi did not die, he suffered a severe injury. As
traditions demands in their locality (land), Agya was prosecuted and jailed for
five (5) good years with hard labour. Had I
know- they say, is always not first.
Few months after the incidence, Kofi's wounds and broken femur got healed. Kofi
started hunting alone in the forest since Agya was still serving his sentence
in prison.
Kofi at the forest
One day Kofi went for hunting and unfortunately pursued a stubborn
delicacy till it ended him in an evil forest within which are full of Monsters
who feeds on human flesh
Kofi was taking captive by the ugly Monsters and was tied up in their cage
waiting for his death. During Kofi's four (4) days at the Monsters place, He
witnessed that every night, one of three (3) people who were tied up by
the Monsters before Kofi went were used as meat to their teeth.
They will set fire under a large silver pot half filled with water until it starts
boiling. Then the Chief Monster will come around the boiled water and will
order an uglier Monster to bring who is next for inspection. During their
inspection, what they did not want to see on their delicacy was a scar. Anyone
who fortunately happens to have scars on his or her body was freed to go to his
or her humble abode; though Kofi did not know that until it got to his turn for
inspection.
Lo and behold! the gun short scar was beautifully designed on his thigh. Even
though Kofi was their last meat, they could not afford to devour a meat
with a scar.
Kofi on His way home
This means that, everything happens for a reason. If Kofi was not shot
on his earlier hunting with Agya, he wouldn’t have had his head after the
Monsters captured him.
In the same way if Agya was also not imprisoned, he would have gone for the
hunting with Kofi and since Agya had no scars on his body, he wouldn’t
have been spared.
The bible also says that "ALL things work together for good for those
that trust and believe in the lord”.
So my brothers and sisters in Christ and in the world, I entreat all of you to
join me trust and believe in the lord and ALL things will work together for
good for us...it doesn't matter whether you have unmentionable situation, I want
you to know that it will work together for your good.
God bless us all....
