GREAT LESSON FROM JAPAN Vs AUSTRALIA MATCH

I am not such a sport freak, but thank God, that from some proddings and jests from my friends, I was encouraged to watch the Germany 2006 FIFA World Cup tournament. The football match was between Japan and Australia. The date was Monday 12th June 2006. (That was the anniversary of the MKO Abiola and Babangida June 12 annulment saga).

Like every other football match, everything was in place, and the match kicked off. By the time they came to half time, Japan was leading with a loan goal.

But by the time the second half began, and they are playing into the 84th minute, the table turned, and Australia equalized.

When it was 89th minute, Australia scored the second goal, and it was unbelievable. As if that was not enough, by the time it was 92nd minute, Australia scored the third goal.

Hurray! Australia won the race. The ovation in the stadium was so loud that it took the grace of God and the strong pillars of the magnificent stadium to sustain it from collapsing. What a great bounce back you will say.
No wonder, one wise man said; "the most unreasonable award of score is at half time". So, what is the lesson that I want us to leave from this story? The lesson is this, nobody is a write off, secondly anyone can bounce back, thirdly, no situation is hopeless, and fourthly, whenever you win, the world will celebrate you.

Let me tell you, tremendous success awaits you in the near future if you will not allow the petty failures of today to kill your morale to move forward.

As I am communicating with you now, I have good numbers of friends who were complete write offs in their family but who are a point to reckon with in their family today.

Even myself, I am a living proof. I am not saying that I have all the money in the bank, but God has helped me to break a lot records among my brethren.

My dear reader, my admonition to you is this, don't give up no matter what the world is saying or thinking about you. The only thing that should dominate your mind all the time is; "What are you going to do to I improve the lives of people around you and how are you going to make legitimate income marketing such thing?"
And let me remind you, some people, when God wants to bless them in Ibadan, they may have to be disgraced out of Lagos, Nigeria.

Let me tell you some practical examples, when God wanted to bless Joseph in Egypt, he was disgraced out of his father's domain.

When God wanted to bless Jesus with an unbeatable fame, he was publicly disgraced on the cross. When God wanted to bless Mandela with wealth and fame, he was unjustifiably thrown into jail.
And when God wanted to bless me as a person in his own business, I resigned out of frustration from my previous place of employment.

My dear friend and fan, please don't allow what you are going through to affect where you are going to. The prize of life is not always given to people at the beginning of the race; it is always awarded at the end of the race.

I would have loved to tell you more on this, but the space is small, but notwithstanding, let's manage it so. Let us use what we have to get what we want. Although, for those who can afford to go the extra mile to better their lives, I have put some helpful resources together in my website which is always at the end of this write up, visit it. See you at the top.
