Earlier this morning, I wrote an article asking everyone what their name was. I was advising everyone to keep up with their good name and never trade it for material things. We shouldn't spoil the good name we have because of our love of money and flashing things.

A good name is better than gold and silver, don't forget this, it's very important and essential that we know this. Let me tell us a short story about a guy.

A short story;

There's this guy who lost his dad while at the university studying. He finished university not quite long when his dad died and he started looking for work. He searched for more than 4 years and he was unable to find one but on this special day, he received a call to come for an interview with one of the companies he has submitted his CV to.

He got dressed up the next day and left for the company. On getting there, he was already feeling intimidated because of the calibre of people he met there. He was far lower than them because he attended a public university while they attended a private university.

When it was his turn for the interview he was called upon and he entered. The head of the company was one who his late dad raised secretly with his hard-earned money. His late dad sponsored the man up to the university level till he graduated. It was after the man graduated he lost contact with his late dad and ever since then, he has been trying to look out for him or any of his children.

The man that head the interview asked for his surname and he mentioned it. Immediately, the name rang a bell in his ear and he questioned him about his late dad and the man knew he was the true son of the man. The man was happy to meet the man's son and was sad at the same time that his helper has died without him seeing him for the last time.

He was told to go and that they will call him whenever to resume. The guy left in sad mood cos he was not properly interviewed and assumed that he has lost the job again. It was after two days he was called to resume immediately, he was so happy and give God the glory.

After he resumes to work was when the Head of the company told him how his dad has helped him with his education and that his dad was the one who allow him to be in the position he was today. The guy was surprised, he couldn't believe his ears but he was thankful for the type of his dad he has.

The end.

What to derive from the story;

It was the good things his dad has done to the head of the company that allow him to remember the man's name for good. The man has a good name while alive and when he was no more, his good name speaks for him and paves way for his son too. If it was only gold and silver that the father left behind, the son must have lavished it and spent the money anyhow but with the good name he left behind, he was able to cater for his son's future.

This is what a good name can do for you. It will speak for you wherever you find yourself and it will open doors of a miracles for you when you least expect it.

Remember to retain your good name cos it can't be replaced with gold or silver.
