Don’t make the same Mistake!

It’s a Sunday morning, after a few worship songs, my thought flipped back to some of the activities that happened during the week. One of the most significant if not the most significant was that which occurred on Wednesday.

Setting my eyes on a 16 year old cousin of mine- for the first time ever.

I thought about many things at the same time as different questions kept seeking for answers. Out of all these, the question which got my attention is, “why did it take this long”?

One area of your life you must not joke with is your relationship/marital-the consequences are more than you can predict or handle. Most of our grandparents and great-grand parents were polygamist and this has caused a lot of problems for their descendants many of which are unresolved. For some people, that is the genesis of most of their problems and challenges- unnecessary/unhealthy rivalry, bitterness, strife etc 

I thought for a moment and was forced to voice out some of my thoughts. What would have been the story if we had capitalized on the advantage of “numbers”? Perhaps some of the challenges we are facing now would have been easily averted and things would have been easier for many people.

The lessons I learnt include:
 

1.      Your decision will not only affect you.

2.      The consequence of your actions outweighs your action itself.

3.      Population/number does not equal advantage except you do something.

4.      Don’t create more problems than you can solve

5.      Add yours…thanks
