DON'T RUN FROM YOUR GIANT
Giant as we know is a very large or strong person or thing.
Now, am talking about the giant in front of you, that mountain, that obstacle, that stumbling stone etc.

Your giant in life can be poverty, it can be sickness,it can be childlessness,or it can be Religion/wrong beliefs.

It is only when you face your challenges/giant, that you become a winner, else you keep being a looser.

Sometimes in life, what Mr A faces as a challenge, cannot be what Me B will face as a challenge.
EXAMPLE There are people in life whom their parents bought plots of land and built houses when they were still living. Now their children will no longer face land challenge or house challenge. That mountain was removed by their parents when they were still alive.

There is no one without a giant, starting from the president to the least person in the country, everyone faces challenge no matter your level in life.

Some people's giant could be belief/religion. They have this "someone is after me" belief. Whatever little thing that happens in their life is subjected to someone is after me.

Some women while pregnant, goes to the ministry/church for check ups. Why not go to the hospital and check your body. Your mummy in church will tell you not to go to the hospital, that she has delivered about 20 women here successfully, that going to the hospital is waisting of money.

Why not waist that money and be safe.

Engaging yourself in what you cannot handle is a giant. Why not join at least 2 meetings/club so as to enable you meet up with other family problems. But instead,you choose to join several meetings,and then create problems for yourself.

Ist Samuel 17 story about Goliaths and David, I know you remember that story.

Try facing your challenges, stop running away from it. Try to make a difference from what others in your family did or are doing.

For instance, If in your family, no one has ever been married in the right manner, It is a challenge, tell yourself that your case is different.

Maybe in your family, no one has ever driven a car, what they drive is motor; you know what I mean. There is a clear difference between a car and motor.
Now you have to tell yourself that you will not join the trail, that you will make a difference by getting your own car. That is facing your giant...

saying is one thing and working towards it (Action) is another

You don't say something and relax, waiting for heaven miracle to manifest.

Faith without work, is dead. When you say you want to make a difference, you have to work towards it, you don't stay at the comfort of your zone and expect magic from nowhere.

Thanks for your efforts to present your write up in order to motivate your fellow Steemians. Yes obstacles can seem as a great mountain or a big elephant, but with determination couple with prayer and assistance from friends, one can surmount the seeming obstacles.
Thanks.

Assistance from friends I don't believe is a way of facing your giant in life.
The more you wait for those"friends" the more you become a looser. So I guess it's better one depends on himself, than hopefully waiting for friends....

You've got a very good content here

Thank you @ninapenda for educating us.One has to stand tall and face his/her challenges.

Doing the right thing and not being too reliant on others or pseudo-miracle is also important.

Thank you once again for the motivation.
