STAY CALM

STAY CALM

I was reading a bedtime story to my kids tonight and decided to stop at a point and told them we'd continue tomorrow.

Dreading the suspense, "Continue Daddy", they protested.

"No! You will know how the story ends tomorrow", I responded with a cheeky grin.

------

See, there are times in life you wish to know what tomorrow holds.


Anxious,

Eager,

Expectant,

Sometimes bewildered.

How will the interview go?

Will I get the job?

Will I get the contract?

Will they approve my visa?

Will my salary be paid or will it last me for the month?

Will I ever get out of debt?

Will I get the promotion?

Will my future husband/wife ever show up?

Am I going to be rich or will just be comfortable?


Questions over questions...


The good news is... like for my kids, you can be rest assured, Daddy has got the rest of the story in the palm of His hands.


In fact, He wrote the story so He knows what tomorrow holds.


And because He is your Daddy, you can be sure, "all things work together for your good..."

Stay calm.

Don't be anxious.

Worry less.

Be Still.

And know... that He is God!

He's in control,

Even in the storm.

Be encouraged.


Amen, somebody?


I believe in you!

Are you an eagle in a cage?

September 8, 2025
Picture an eagle in a cage. No matter how beautiful the cage is, the eagle was not designed to live in a cage. It was designed to soar on the highest heights and mountains with courage and flair. No matter the lure of the cage, it can never surpass the freedom of the eagle soaring in all expanse of the skies in all of its glories and strength. Like the eagle trapped, too many brilliant, gifted, called individuals are trapped in the cage of careers they were not designed for. They can never command their true worth and value, they can only eat the crumbs they are being fed by their captors. The lure of salaries and pennies that will never satisfy keeps them in such cages. They would rather remain in the rat race than take the risks for their freedom and glory. The Bible says, "If the Son (Jesus) sets you free, you will be free indeed." - John 8:36 As a child of God, you can break free! You were not designed to be caged! Any job that does not give you the freedom to express your gifts, talents and calling is a cage. One of the biggest graveyards of purpose I see is this graveyard of unfulfilling careers. People get jobs only for the sake of earning, rather than fulfilling their life's calling and pursuing what matters to them. But here's the truth: The careers you were not designed for will not satisfy you. They will leave you with voids and emptiness. At the end of your career, you would lack true legacy, influence and impact. Your time to break free is now. I believe in you. Dr Samuel Ekundayo
