Today's Youth
I did some little diggings on some
MEN who had graced this planet earth, let’s check out these facts and stats so
we can draw our conclusion..
ADOLF HITLER : A German dictator who killed about 18 million
jews.He was also a talented public speaker. He joined the army @ AGE 25.This
was said of him “Hitler combined manipulative talent with great cunning; he was
simultaneously obsessed with fantastic visions and blinded to reality by them.
The result was an outburst of destruction that consumed millions and
transformed the world…WHAT A MAN…..WHAT A TOOL…
JOSEF STALIN: Started his journey from d seminary before joining
the “bolshevicks”(a revolutionary group) @ AGE 25..These was said of him”he
found russia working with wooden plows and left it equipped with atomic piles”….
AUGUSTO PINNOCHET:A chilean dictator who graduated with a second
lieutenant @ AGE 20
BENNITO MUSSOLINI: An Italian dictator who started his sojourn @
AGE 20
BILLY GRAHAM was ordained as minister @ AGE 21
BILL GATES founded Microsoft @ AGE 20
NAPOLEON BONAPARTE became a lieutenant colonel @ AGE 22 and a
brigadier general @ AGE 24.These was said of him”Napoleon was a driven man,his
life was work centered and even his social activities has a purpose”
CHARLES WESLEY was ordained into the church of england which serve
as a springboard to the exploits he made @ AGE 28
SANNI ABACHA became a captain in the Nigerian army @ AGE 24
IDI AMIN joined the British colonel army in Buganda @ AGE 21
GEORGE WASINGTON was elected into virginia house of assembly @ AGE
26
YAKUBU GOWON was 32 years when he became Nigeria’s millitary head
of state.
Time and space would fail me to
mention the Wigglesworth’s, the luther kings, the john knoxs, the shakespears, the ………..
What do you observe about these men?
They were men who shook their generation for either God or Devil. They were mighty tools in the hands of either of the
two parties. They weren’t mediocre and they were ready to lay their lives for the
cause they were fighting for. AND THEY
STARTED THE JOURNEY IN THEIR YOUTH. They were first class candidate of
either heaven or hell....they were dependable tools…
But coming to our generation,
both God and Devil are “unhappy” because they are not getting able and
dependable tools like before. All they see are mediocres who relishes and
discuss the exploits of past generation, men who are not ready to take the bull
by the horn. They see men who stand for nothing and fall for everything.They
see men who swerve side with both heaven and hell at will and forget that ‘twas
the future carved by these men that now forms our today…which future are we
carving for the coming generation(if there would be any)?? (Facebook, 2go,
twitter, nimbuzz, instagram)? These are all interesting platforms (if not
abused as it is the case now)
A saying goes that “you can’t
feature in the future you don’t
picture”, it’s quite an incomplete saying without adequate preparation.Show me
a man who goes to sleep after getting the architectural design of his new house
and I will show you a man whose house would remain virtual till he dies…….
Before heaping curses and hurling
abuses on our leaders, first go and check out what they were doing when they
were your age and you would realize that they were busy and “hardworkingly”
laying some foundations that eventually got them to the pinnacle of their
“successes”. Which one are you laying?
GOD IS DEPENDING ON YOU, SO ALSO
IS THE DEVIL ( BECAUSE YOU ARE A POTENTIAL
ARROW TO A TARGET)….THE CHOICE IS YOURS TO MAKE AND DON’T FORGET THAT YOU WOULD
RECEIVE ITS CONSEQUENCES THREAFTER ……..
REMEMBER, SITTING DOWN AND DAY
DREAMING MAKES NO MAN GREAT, THE GOOD LORD SENDS THE FISHES,BUT YOU MUST DIG
THE BAIT…..#seeu@dtop
