Life tips with Charles Mushinga
If you start your day with a prayer, you feel good inside.
If you have a bath after that prayer, you feel good outside.
This is the recipe for a good day and if you repeat this daily, you are likely to have a good life.
There is God out there.
Otherwise, most of the things in life would not be so perfect.
That God is all-powerful and all-loving. If you want the best life, make Him your friend.
Imagine being friends with the president of whatever country you live in.
Imagine being so close to them that you can call them anytime and they always drop whatever they are doing to attend to you.
You can ask for almost anything from them and they will give you, as long as it is good for you.
And when you’re sad or having a bad day, imagine your best friend president consoling you and hugging you and making sure they are with you until your smile returns.
No such president exists, they are all so busy sometimes they can’t even be there for their children but when you imagined being best friends with them, you felt privileged didn’t you?
You felt like you could do anything!
Now imagine being best friends with God, the creator of everything!
Unlike presidents, you do not need an appointment to be with God.
He is always available for you.
You can tell Him all your heart’s desires.
Contacting Him is free of charge.
You can talk to God on a bus, in an exam, while playing sport, in an interview, before you sleep, and when you wake up.
When life feels unfair, it is God you must ask to bring justice.
When you are in the deepest depths of despair, maybe you have lost a loved one failed your exams made a regrettable but irreversible mistake, or been diagnosed with a disease that mankind has no solution to – talk to God about it.
Knowing that there is an all-powerful, all-knowing being looking over us all day every day is the greatest wisdom.
Even the man behind the theory of evolution, Charles Darwin once said, “The extreme difficulty or impossibility of conceiving this immense and wonderful universe should have come from something or someone so great.”
The sun wouldn’t be a perfect distance away from the earth to ensure it doesn’t scorch us to death while at the same time making sure we don’t freeze to death.
Our eyes would not be so perfectly positioned in front of our countenance, our brain wouldn’t be this powerful organ . . .
So God exists and if you want an advantage over the rest of your peers and humans in general, be his friend.
If you become God’s friend, everything else falls into place.
You stay away from bad influences when you become God’s friend.
He guides you to the right friends who are not drunkards or druggies.
He will make you more patient and more mature about material possessions.
You will not feel at a loss nor will you do anything illegal to acquire wealth or what it buys you when you’re God’s friend because you know good things will come in the future as long as He is watching over you.
When you’re God’s friend, you walk with happiness in a world filled with misery.
This happiness is a preserve of the few that befriend God and the rest of the world wonders where you find this joy.
Explain it to them.
Do your best to make them understand your secret to happiness.
However, know that most of them will not believe in God and you must leave them alone as long as you have done your best.
If your words don’t change them, your character will.
Stay humble, smile to everyone, love them all, bathe, and look good – be happy.
And your Mighty friend will smile back and bless you and more ways than you can imagine.
Remember, it’s the little things that count. – [email protected]
