A rich man had only one daughter. Wen d daughter was of marriage, d father sent news around town dat all eligible young men should come to compete in a test which would determin who was fit 2 marry his beautiful daughter. On dat set day, all d able-bodied young men came out. Some came out wit papers & biro & odas wit cutlasses & swords. The rich man took dem to his swimming pool & addressed de men, "Any of you who can swim from one end of dis swimming pool 2 oda would marry my daughter. In addition, I will give him 15 million dollars, a car, & a house so dat dey can start life well. I shall be waiting 2 meet my son-in-law at d oda side. GOODLUCK!" As de young men, all very excited at de prospect of winning,started taking their shirts off, a helicopter came over de pool & dropped giant snakes & crocodiles into de pool. Immediately, all de men turned back & started wearing their shirts again. Disappointed, some of dem said, "that's crazy, let's know who will marry dat girl, no one will" All of a sudden,they heard a splash in de pool. Evrybody watched in amazement as one gentle man struggled his way across,avoiding de snakes & crocodiles. Finally he made it 2 oda side. The rich man could not believe it. He asked de young man 2 name anytin he wanted, but de young man was stiil panting uncontrollably. Finally, he got himself & made a request sayin, "SHOW ME DE PERSON WHO PUSHED ME INSIDE THIS POOL". MORAL: You don't know wot you are capable of doing, until you are PUSHED!!! Some times it takes going tru bad moments 2 bring out de BEST in us. We should understand dat Trials are raw materials for Triumphant Testimonies.. The PUSH might take different dimensions. Some pple needed 2 be sacked b/4 realizing their potential & their goals in life. Some are needed 2 be PUSHED by POVERTY, while some INJUSTICE, etc. I PRAY SOMEONE OR SOMETHING WILL PUSH YOU, US INTO A GREAtER HEIGHT TODAY!!! GoodLuck. |
