CREATIVE WRITING CONTEST: Be appreciative and never give up, it's not the end of the world

Hello steemians. Am very delighted for being part of this contest if not for any other thing but to encourage someone out there going through difficult times, and fill like the whole world is over your shoulders. But i come to tell you that your worst moments might be the best moments someone out there has experienced in life.

You cry daily for not having shoes to wear but forgetting to knowing there are some people who were never opportuned to have feets like you do.

Come to think of it what about those who have never been abled to know what light looks like yet they are still appreciative to God, making their best out of life and still keep striving for the best life can offer yet they don't complain.
Each time you feel like giving up think of the wonderful privileges you have around you such as joy, love, peace, above all the air you breathe.

Let me share with you a short story.
My aunt once told me this story that they went out for evangelisation and passed by this neighborhood in Yaounde and came across a baby crying and behold when we called him close to ask, he said they haven't eaten in their house for four days. When they got to their house we found his siblings and mother sleeping on the floor very weak and their mum was pregnant.
She had to rush by the road get them something sweet for them to eat and regain some strength. And they went to the church budget and got some money, bought a bag of rice, garri, sugar, and some other necessary stuffs. The woman was very happy and used some ot the things to start selling food at a small joint by the road.

This woman and her family were at the point of giving up in life and they're had loose hope but the God who knows the future turn things around for them, and gave them hope again for they're had lost it.

What matters in life is the end and not beginning. You might not know how the future looks like but you know who holds the future and that his plans for you are wildest than your imaginations.

Thanks for reading.
