Do you know why a Lion is called King the jungle? it's because lion is strong, it's fast and it agile. If you watch wildlife videos about Lion you'll come to know the special characteristics that makes a lion unique.

At the same time, I read one statement which convinced me about life. I come to realize that even though the Lion is strong, mighty and fast, there's a point whereby it is considered as the useless animal, to the point that a common pet as dog is better than it . Here is the statement from the holy book.

Imagine a fight with dog and a Lion, we already know that lion will win. That statement mentioned a Dead Lion that's to show us that if we're alive to see today, we have to be grateful to our Creator and he deserves it.

Like I said, Being alive is the most thing am grateful to the Almighty because no matter how strong we are, how intelligent and wealthy we're, with no life we're nothing. So the first thing I will like to thank my creator is keeping me alive.

The second thing am so grateful about is my family. Believe me when I said my family because in this world if you have a supportive and lovely family, you're the greatest person ever, your friend may abandon you, they may reject you, but family, it's our blood, blood is thicker that water. Am grateful to the Almighty for the lovely family.

Lastly I also want to thank the Almighty for providing my basic needs. A place to lay my head, a food to eat everyday, and something to cover my nakedness. People are really suffering, some couldn't afford a place to sleep at night, to have even a 1 square meal is a problem, but look at me🤣

A full load tray of rice, who am I, Am so grateful. Am not rich neither poor but I must say God has done a lot to me and my family.

Do you still remember the dead Lion in the introduction? I wish a lion could read, atleast that statement would have teach them a lesson to be humble. In anything I do, I remember that there's someone behind me, someone who keep me alive, someone who cares for me by giving me a lovely family, someone who provides my basics need;food, clothing and a dwelling place. This things impact my life in a way that I tried as much as possible to live a life that will please my creator, a faithful life, living a good lifestyle to show that am really grateful to the Almighty.

I believe, the Holy book say; if we wish anything with faith, our lovely and Almighty is willing and eager to fulfill it. This is where a faith comes in as a Christian.

When we wish for something with Faith even without speaking it out, our lovely Father knows it all. He is the one that created us , we are in his image, He Knows what we have been passing through everyday, he knows our grief, our pain and everything happening around us.

Mind you this wishes is not like saying; I want a car and a car will appear, or I want to a house in America and in a blick of eye, it appears, this is different from magic.

When we draw close to the Almighty, he will be with us everywhere and we can be free to pour our heart to him at any time.

Now let share a little you with all, when I first move to lagos, I joined one congregation(Christian meeting) in my neighborhood. within that week, they have a congregation in another state which is Lagos to Ogun state and provision were made for those who want to use public transport. As a new person in the congregation, I was thinking of how am going to pay the transport fair because that day was actually the last day to conclude the payment and it was the last meeting for the week. So I went to the person responsible for the transportation to include my name among people using public transport and I promise to do transfer to him the next day after I explained to him my condition.

But something shocking and something amazing happened, One brother, I don't know him before, he went and pay the money, and the only thing is said to me was; Don't worry about the money for transport, prepare for the convention. I was surprised because it's was like a dream, "no it not true, let me confirmed" i said to myself. I went to confirmed from the person who wrote my name and he said someone had paid it for me. How did he know what I wanted at that time? Are you thinking what am thinking?

So my friends, the Almighty is always there for us, and ready to fulfill our wishes. Though sometimes what we wished may not happened directly or as fast as we expected, remember that even before we ask, he knows our heart and what we want. So let's put our hope in him and he'll fulfilled our wishes in an unexpected way.

In conclusion, my life is so precious to me because it's only the living that praises God not the dead, am grateful about my life, my family, and been able to afford the basic needs. As such my daily lifestyle show how grateful I am to the one who watches over me. Anything we wishes, as far as it's in God's will, will definitely fulfilled it.
