Youth With A P…

Posted

I had the privilege to speak to hundreds of crazy people last weekend(yeah, they are really crazy).It was the national YWAP campmeeting in the city of Kaduna.People came in from different parts of the country.There were also a couple of attendees from abroad.

It wasn’t my first time in Kaduna.I had been in Kaduna before but that was about eight years ago.I was really inspired by the visible difference between what I had seen on my first visit and what I experienced on this trip-Passionate young people…great atmosphere…peaceful ambience…warm hospitality…broad clean roads…but what i found most inspiring was the “purpose-orientation” of the young people who had come from different parts of the world to seek the face of God, rub minds with other great people and receive new strategies to help them transform their communities.

You could see it in their eyes.You could hear it in their voices.You could feel it in their pulse.You could sense it in their attitude.

These were not YOUTH WITH A PROBLEM…

These were not YOUTH WITH A PREDICAMENT…

These were YOUTH WITH A PURPOSE!

I was very comfortable.It was my kind of atmosphere.I love spending time with people who are going somewhere…people who have a dream and a sense of destiny…people who have a sense of purpose.They get my juices flowing.

Purpose is key to every noble accomplishment.

Your purpose is the reason you were born and if you don’t fulfill it, you’ve missed the whole point of being alive

Every thing has a specific purpose.Similarly every person on earth has a purpose…a unique assignment…

I hope you have discovered yours.

If you haven’t or if you are still in the process, i encourage you to stick close to this blog.One of my greatest joys is empowering people to live life at it’s peak.A good place to start is helping them to find and fulfill their purpose.

I was very excited that I was fulfilling my purpose by empowering them to find and fulfill theirs.It’s one experience I will never forget.My body still aches from the pains of speaking for almost four hours within twelve hours(between friday night and saturday morning) but my heart swells with joy because those people will become effective leaders, great fathers, emulatable entrepreneurs, scandal-free ministers because of one or two of the points I shared.

I’M FULFILLING MY PURPOSE.

THEY ARE FULFILLING THEIRS.

WHAT ARE YOU DOING WITH YOURS?

Last Weekend…in Abuja.

Posted

I had the privilege of traveling with my spiritual father and life coach Pastor Paul Adefarasin over the last weekend.It was a mission trip to Abuja, the capital city of Nigeria.

It was a great way for me to renew my spiritual commitment and prepare myself for the second half of this year.I can still remember almost every one of those life-changing words my coach spoke to me.I can still feel the warmth of the ambiance, the joy of networking with some really cool people who are doing great stuff and the taste of those delicious delicacies still linger on my taste buds.I still remember the thrill of navigating the broad road network without the typical traffic hassles of Lagos but beyond all that I can never forget the privilege I had to learn-just by observation.

I can confidently say I learnt a lot more than I could share in this post.

By and large, that’s one trip I won’t forget in along time and I just couldn’t think of a better way to begin the second half of the year.
