When people throw the above questions at me? I just smile in my heart.
Dear Friend,
Perhaps there is a striking packaging God has wrapped you in. It might be your gestures, Queen's English, youthful appearance or unclassified height of brilliance.Never forget that it is what it is- PACKAGING.
Since RELEVANCE, is more a function of the Content than a package; do not allow the fascination provoked by the packaging make you forget to maintain your relationship with the author of your destiny.
I wont always be young nor look young. Some day i shall grow old. However, when the lustre of my youth no longer intrigue my hearers, may the GRACE on my life never fail to EFFECTIVELY EXECUTE THE MANDATE ON THEIR LIVES....
I encourage you to stay with the God who called you. Don't you dare think that it is the "package" that compels the people to believe. IT IS THE GRACE ON YOUR LIFE THAT DOES.
Don't lose your substance..The intriguing package is a phase....
#Selah
Committed to your Fulfilment
Anne Atulaegwu
