The adventure

THE ADVENTURE

I was waiting for someone in the sun on an afternoon and then i saw a shed covering a drainage so i said to myself “let me sit under the shed”. So i sat at the edge of the drainage and my legs were inside. Right infront of me was a hip of granite. I decided to take some granite and throw it one after the other to see how far it could reach. Doing this, i observed some didn’t go far because it hits sachet water nylons and that reduced the speed while some hit weeds and couldn’t go any further.
I continued my adventure of killing time by throwing more granite. At the long run, most of the granite i threw got to a particular place. like 70% of the granites i threw. But compared to the length of the gutter, the distance was not that great. Some went out of the gutter and fell back on the road. Even small ones i looked down on went far than i expected. Only a few went far but compared to the length of the drainage it wasn’t even close to ¼. At this point, something struck my mind.
Let’s say i am God. The granites are humans/living souls/you and i. The drainage is Earth or lets say our lives. Now my intension was to throw those granites to the extreme end of the drainage but they didn’t even reach the middle. The plan of God for you and i, for everyone is for we all to go far in life, to be prosperous but obstacles of life got some stocked on the way. These people are the granite that hit nylon, weeds on the way which stopped them from going further.
The 70% that think they got far are those that are living for themselves. They didn’t go far but they are not beneath. The “me and my family” You can also call them the average. 

The ones that fell off the drainage back on the road are those that life caught up with and gave up the ghost without achieving anything in life.
The tiny ones i looked down on but still went far ahead are those, that men looked down on, those without hope but miraculously did great in life but compared to God’s plan for their lives, they didn’t go far.
The few that went far ahead but still didn’t reach the ¼ of the gutter are the few in life. The spectacular ones, those we call wealthy but compared to God’s plan for them, they are just at the starting point.
My point... know this fact. God’s plan for your life is not limited. God already did His part by putting you on earth. I already did my part by throwing the granites inside the gutter. Its now left for you and i to stay firm in the Lord, listen to His teachings and abide by His rules and regulations so that even though you meet obstacles on your journey in life, He will miraculously see you through and by that you will go far in life....
