This mystery called greatness


What is greatness all about? Why do some leaders behave funny in order to be seen as great? Is greatness a concept, a reality or simply a catchword for continous improvement? Greatness is  essentially a mystery. This is because; a truly great person is made by God. In other words, it is the Lord Almighty who can empower an individual to become outstanding. When God makes someone great, he gives him the dynamic force to be a blessing to others. Moreover, it is only God who can bless without strings attached.

While it lies within divine purview to make one great, there is also the part of responsibility on the side of the individual.The leader who wants to be great must follow the principles. . In the college of greatness, only the obedient, focused, hardworking, spirit-filled, prayerful and faithful ones get to the top. You don’t do it as you feel; you do it as it is instructed. Those who do not have goals never score any in the affairs of life. Hard work does not kill, it only refines. All the covenant fathers of greatness, ancient and modern were hard workers, who will you resemble, being pathologically lazy? .

However, at the zenith of greatness- propellers is grace. And the reason for this is not far to seek. It is not your strength that does it, neither is it your skill. It is God. It is grace that lubricates your efforts and turns them into outstanding success. It is grace that makes the results of a day’s labour supersede that of a decade. It is grace that makes you glow in glory instead of being a professional story-teller. It is grace that makes the difference. See you on the platform of true greatness
