OUR DAILY MANNA 11TH AUGUST 2020 – LORD, MAKE ME A SHOULDER!

An old man once told me the story of how as a young man, his mother used to ask him: “ WHAT IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF YOUR BODY?” Through the years, he would take a guess at what he thought was the correct answer. First time, his answer was: “ THE EARS.” The mother replied : “No many people are deaf. But you keep it and I will ask you soon again. “Several years passed before she asked him again. His second answer was: “MY EYES”. The mother told him: “You are learning fast, but the answer is not correct there are many people who are blind.” THE HAVOC THE PANDEMIC(COVID19) CAUSED SINCE FROM START

Then one year, his father died. Everybody was hurt. Everybody was crying. Then the mother looked at the graveside and when it was their turn to say their final goodbye to their father, she asked him, “Do you know the most important body part yet, my son? He was shocked when she asked him by the graveside. The mother said to him: “Don’t be confused or shocked. This question is very important now and it shows you have really lived in your life. For every body part you gave me in the past, I have told you that you were wrong and I have given you an example why. But today is the day you need to learn this important lesson.” Then the mother looked down at him and threw her head to his shoulder and hugged him. With tears in her eyes, she said “My son, the most important part of your body is you shoulder.” God the controller of destiny

Wow! This young man was forced to ask: “Mum, it is because it holds up my head?” She replied, “No, it is because it can hold the head of a friend or a loved one when they cry. Everybody needs a shoulder to cry on sometimes in life. I only hope that you have enough love and friends that you will always have a shoulder to cry on when you need it.” There and then this young man knew the most important body part is not a selfish one. It is made for other not for yourself. It is sympathetic to the pain of others. Oh glory! What a lesson as you go out today! The Holy Ghost is reminding you that: People will forget what you said.

People will forget what you did. But people will NEVER forget how you made them feel in their crises times. Good friends are like stars, you don’t always see them, but you always know them when they around you. No wonder a wise man said “IF YOU WANT TO BE WISELY SELFISH, CARE FOR OTHERS.” Yes! It will come back for you because Hosea 6:11 says: “… there is a harvest appointed for you “Be a Shoulder daily! ODM Daily 11 August 2020 – LORD, MAKE ME A SHOULDER!
