THE VALUE of FURNACE.

Posted on by

Here we talking about the furnace of affliction, from the fact that fire is used to purify or try metals, afflictions have the same effect / or is meant to have the same effect in people.

We are not sent to the furnace to be consumed, not at all. The problems and situations we face are there to bring out the best in us.

How does this happen?

Through the furnace is where we discover who we really are. What are we made of; as orange gives orange juice once it’s squeezed.

Afflictions have a way of bringing us to a turning point. The moment where we make up our minds to focus in life. The awakening! In this, we finally realise that time too short to be wasted on things non-sense. Silver gets to be to be moulded again in the hands of its potter. So it is in us. The fire not only brings out purity within us, but also gives a another moment in the hands of our potter so that we can be shaped and reshaped for that specific purpose we here for.

Purification is destiny. The only way to get to that destiny is through the furnace. It is in this that our value is realised and we step into our destiny.

We all look the same until gold is discovered in us. Furnace in afflictions brings out the value. Then upon that discover is where we build our success in life; and the lasting legacy we would leave behind to our children.

After you have gone through the furnace, now you have a story to tell. A powerful story that will transform / inspire / encourage / or teach someone else. For we now have been build on a true foundation in establishing ourselves in wisdom and understanding. We therefore becomes a perfect tool to mentor someone else.

Gold is what comes out when the process through the furnace is complete. So is creativity coming out of a person who have gone through hard times.

Lastly, the furnace makes us human again; once our egos has been puffed up by earthly gratifications, afflictions are there to remind us that there is Elohim. He is the God who sees (EL ROI).

Next time you going through the furnace *’consider it all joy.’*

– Bon Vissage.

Africa Needs TrueLeaders

Posted on by

Africa is rich, beautiful and potent with brave and hard working people.

It is degraded and defamed by greedy, selfish and bad leadership. Bad leadership in the sense that it is always busy looting and accumulate wealth to enrich itself while impoverish the general public.

The leaders have huge bank accounts in Enrope, America, Australia and wherever full of dollars, Euros and pounds while a local person is dying of starvation and no drugs in hospitals, no fuel in ambulances, low education standards, poor road network etc.

Africa needs true leadership that long for positions to serve; honesty trustworthy, accountable and visionary. Leadership that has heart full of grace, generated by love to serve and save lives that can not afford to fly and seek medical treatment in Germany, USA, Israel even Canada.

Africa needs leadership that has not day dreams but that of foresight that can use the resources minerals we have in our soils to develop and make Africa a better place to live large.

It is the only true leadership that can sacrifice to take risks in fighting against corruption, terrorism, poverty, diseases, unemployment, tribalism, illiterancy, ignorance and all that have put Africa in a mass can raise up a flag of victory.

Yours faithfully,
