| Bible Reading: Psalm 78.4, 2 Tim.2:2, Joshua 4.21-22, Luke 12:15 – 21 Memory Verse: One generation shall commend your works to another, and shall declare your mighty acts. Psalm145.4 (ESV) ] A young man who had a lot of money met an old man and told him, ”Accept that I’m richer than you”. And the old man replied, “That’s not true.” The young man said, “Okay, let’s go to my house and I will prove it to you.” So they went to the young man’s house in one of his luxurious cars and got there within 5 minutes. What welcomed them was all kinds of choice cars – Rolls Royce, Aston Martin, Bugatti, etc. Then the old man said, “Now, let’s go to my house”. So they went in the old man’s car, and the journey which was meant to last for 10 minutes lasted about 40 minutes. They were delayed on the way by all calibers of rich people wanting to greet and pay homage to the old man. Many had the same cars and infarct more expensive cars than those of this young man. They all thanked the old man for helping them get rich. Then an often-ignored truth dawned on the young man: The wealth of a man is in the quality of the people in his life, not the material things he has. It was Peter Strople who opined, “ Legacy is not leaving something for people. It’s leaving something in people”. This is the power of being there for people. The reason some people will not harm you is because they know the power of those who will come against them if they touch you. This is the power of being there for people! When you help people achieve their dreams, the reward is always higher than the help. Here’s a truth you should never forget: Achievement is what you can get by yourself. Success is what people can be when you’re still with them. Legacy is what people can do when you are no longer with them. At the back of your mind, leaving a legacy should be what drives your actions. Focus on building people and institutions. Every business, workplace, and company is an incubation place to raise people. Never forget that. 1 COR. 9:11(NIV) SAYS, “IF WE HAVE SOWN SPIRITUAL SEED AMONG YOU, IS IT TOO MUCH IF WE REAP A MATERIAL HARVEST FROM YOU?” SUPPORT THE VISION OF DWOJ IN CASH AND IN KIND. 70 GRAMS NEXUS PAPER AND OTHER PUBLISHING MATERIALS WILL BE HIGHLY APPRECIATED.
