God is willing to help you with the rain if only you can sow your crops.

Do something purposeful and wise so that when God sent his blessings, they will fall on it.

There is no medal for the best beggar of the world. Nobody celebrates beggars.

No amount of blessings can benefit you if you don’t take the first step

If you don’t fight for your dreams, you won’t earn anything. If you don’t anything, you will beg for everything.

When you receive what you begged for, it only lasts for a short time. But what you build day after day will stay on for posterity to meet. Be a world changer and work out your dreams.

Success if yours. Ask for it, stand for it, fight for it and go for it. After you are done, give thanks for it.

There is no excuse to give for being a beggar. We all have imaginations to work out our dreams. Work yours out.
