The Graph Of Life

Life comes with its daily ups and downs, the French people will say, “Il y a les jours sans et les jours avec.”
Life is a slope of a reality, it doesn’t keep going down or up for si longtemps, it winds down and after a moment it thrusts up.

As I was waking up this morning, I saw a graph placed in front of me, the graph of life.
Interpreting the figures, it says success isn’t when we are at the top, success isn’t when things are all good at the top, success is a time between the top and the bottom, in that middle range you’ll find success.

No one is successful at the top, the top is always a level of distribution, when it seems we have gotten to zenith or our endeavour, that is when life teaches us we are but humans, and nothing is ever perfect in the world of man.

The wind could be heartbreak, sickness, failure, loss etc., it in a way reminds us there’s no evergreen-top, all we have is the middle, I call this middle success, I call the top a plain of life’s lessons.

Success is a moment in our lives when things are between bad(bottom) and good(top).
At the top, it’s a reminder to make preparations, something must come and take us down, no one, nothing has ever remained at the top, and nothing ever remains at the bottom forever, there’s always a phase of migration.

But I have a message for you, even when the wind of life blows to take you down, you shall not drop to the bottom, the mercy of the Lord shall keep you at a desirable level, your feet shall not touch the bottom phase of life.

It doesn’t matter how wealthy or famous one is, haven’t you seen billionaires begging for bread? Haven’t you seen world’s strongest men cry and haven’t you seen the most beautiful girl begging for relevance and husband? It’s the graph of life.

If you look at the my video clip, I made markings, the good news is this, when a child of God drops off from the top, he can’t get to the bottom(the bad phase), the Lord keeps him at the phase of success, the phase far from the bottom, I call it the phase of success because it’s desirably stable.

Don’t you ever imagine it’s by your strength and whatever, it’s just His mercy and grace that sustain all our endeavours, the moment God withdraws His mercy from anyone, it doesn’t matter the level or top, the person falls to the dust.

Nebuchadnezzar was the king of kings over all the earth at that time, God placed him at that top, but when the wind of life came, he fell to the dust and ate grass for 7 years in the bush, winds do come, but the mercy of the Lord keeps His children from falling to the dust.
