Purpose And Destiny

There was a time in my life when it looked as though all I'd be in this life was a teacher. My mum particularly was already trying to map out my moving to college of education at Ijanikin or maybe doing an Education course in the university.

I am really going to brag about this, I was a good teacher. I still am.
I started off as a novice but going on it was as though that was all I was meant to do. I had kids who knew nothing stay under me for a session and began doing well.

Students in my class were formidable. Just like David's men they were mighty. I had the best. Simply because I had strategies to bring out the best in Any student that sits under my tutelage. I was really young when my school then gave me an award for teacher of the year. I was really kind of popular in my area. I was doing house-to-house teaching, too.

I also worked in a secondary school after my Diploma. That was another feat for me in teaching. I would jump from class to class dispensing knowledge. As a matter of fact based on recommendation I worked in three sec schools at once. I had a way of capturing the attention of my students and compelling seriousness.

Honestly, those who know me personally would know that i was good. Then there was me shining as light. I can give you a list of students who gave their lives to Jesus after talks with me. Not that I reached out, but they did. Somehow they saw the light and it attracted them.

At some point I thought that was all. I thought that was it - My destiny - To be a teacher.

Filling for JAMB the third time, I wanted to do Accounting Education. I spoke to the man at the Cafe and he tried to convince me to do the main Accounting or something relatively equivalent. Somehow I settled for Banking. And not education.
I am enjoying my course now and it's looking like something. It's looking like maybe it is lecturing and not teaching.

Now there's me writing. I have a book I released last year, more like a draft, a shadow of things to come. I had over a thousand downloads and the reach was wide. As a matter of fact the places the book has reached beat my imagination.

I have also been writing. Both on social media, submitting my write-ups for publications and my book in the oven is 79% ready.

Believe me for some people all they know about me now is that I'm a writer. True. And sometimes I ask the Lord, is this it? Is this the future? Is this the destiny or do I wait for another? Cos I really want a tag, I need to be known for one thing and not sound confused.

Oh wow! How did I skip music. Music ministry is there. Very much there. I have two songs in two different studios. I wake up some days with songs and at different intervals they drop in my spirit. Very deep sounds.
I have churches who invite me for ministration (some I attend and many I decline, cos of the Holy Spirit). I don't have such a sonorous voice but I have the breath of God on it. That's one thing I am sure of.

For some people, all they know is that this is another Mercy Chinwo or maybe Sinach. And sometimes I ask the Lord, is this it? Is this the future? Is this the destiny Abi do I wait for another?
When people say "Kaylee may your sound be heard round the world", I go home and ask myself if they had seen the future that's blurry to me.
Let's not talk about teachings or rather preaching in church.

It's looking like this destiny thing sef want to tire girls. Lately, God has been speaking to me on this matter. And my eyes has been opened to so much.

Destiny is simple. It is being aligned to God's will per season. It's not too much. Just make sure when the cloud moves, you move. That's destiny. It doesn't have to be the same thing. The track record doesn't have to be the same, as far it is the Lord guiding you, move. The wind goes where it listeth remember? And like my Pastor, Tolu rightly said, Your destiny is in Christ. If you're in Him, you can't be off destiny. NEVER.

It's the story Of David that explains this better. While He was a shepherd, one would have thought that would be all about the young man. He was really a good shepherd at the time, he saved every sheep even at the expense of his life. He handled the task at hand diligently as though that was all for him. But that wasn't all.

There was being a king.
Even before the throne, he was in a cave mentoring men. Bringing out the best from nobodies. Till they became mighty men. One would have thought that was all. That that was the kingship God talked about. But no. There's a place. There's a kingdom. An everlasting Kingdom .

If there's one thing this has thought me is that my destiny is everyday. It is not necessarily Tomorrow. It is today. I must tackle each day like it's my last.
My friend, Tolu would say "If the Lord does not meet me fulfilling purpose, He should meet me trying". I think that how she put it.

Because the truth is, not all of us will get to 90 years. Not all of us will live till the year we propose to actually take life serious.

What's am I trying to say? Live everyday . Let this prayer be a constant for you daily as it is for me - Father help me every moment to be aligned to your will for my life and destiny. Let me not be too late or too early. May I not think things for YOU. Just following.
If you say it is tailoring, I will go. Then you say it's Missions, I will go. The goal is to be in God's will for your life, and not have permanent tags.

When you get to this point, people might see you as confused but truth is, you're not. Just stay aligned.

It's always my prayer that when I leave this phase one of my life here on Earth that I die empty. I am praying for you too, that you would die empty. Releasing all that the Lord has deposited ok your inside. Amen!
