Hello people!🖐️
How was your Sunday? Mine went well, I had a wonderful time in the presence of God, we danced and danced to the Glory of God. Today was a busy day for me as well, I moved down to office from church which I closed around 9:30pm. I wasn't chanced at all to compose an article during the work time and when I got home, I met light so I left everything to iron customers clothes. I finished around 11:25pm(the time of writing this).
Big thanks to my generous sponsors
There are some common things in life we just have to master or rather adapt to, not that are going to add money to your account or going to add value to you, they are just there to keep you far from shame. I'll be taking my time to give scenarios;
Talking in the midst of crowd
This has to do with talking in a gathering of multitudes, either in a local or high standard form. It's a thing of must to get grounded in this aspect because in one way or the way, you'll be faced with this challenge one day and if you're not prepared, shame will definitely step in to cover for you.
Even in the local or low settings, like your home town gathering, or gathering of friends, it's very good to get along with socializing because that's the grassroot of where such trait could easily be picked. If you find it difficult to talk in the midst of your close friends, you'd find it challenging to talk when faced with large crowd. Getting along with talks in school class helps to boost this trait. It's not a matter of being introvert, adapt to a little socialism!
Back then at home My father used to put a test on his children so much that whenever his elderly extended family members are around, he always call us to step into their midst to offer the custom greetings and if we fail, they laugh at us and as well get us corrected. What am I saying? In my home Villa, there's a way we greet crowded erldey people, you can't go and be saying hello hello with a handshake, no, there's an approach to that. I remember also when it was a festive period like this, one of my cousins wanted to come over to our compound but immediately he learnt that the elders are gathered in the compound, he had to postponed his visit because he was scared of being intimated, but that awkward moment caught him one day and he proudly disgraced himself 🤦.
Praying in public
First of all, know how to pray in your dialect and official language too in the midst of crowd. I know prayer is a person talk between you and your God but have you considered if peradventure someone gives you a microphone to lead prayer in public?
I read a story about a young man that was intimidated yesterday by his pastor, he went to church with his babe, everything was going on well untill towards the last phase of the service, the pastor was led to hand over the microphone to him for Benediction, he had not prayed in public before, he wanted to reject the microphone but no, he mustn't fall his hand too before his babe, he did it anyhow with too many off languages and everyone could not hold their laughter... According to what he narrated, he said he became so ashamed of himself, even his babe made that the topic of the day when they got home. He said he doesn't know what he did to the pastor that made him do such to him that he'd be going to meet the pastor for a chat to ask for the reason why he did so. That was an awkward moment for that young man.
How about you? Have you lead a prayer onc in an open scene? If you haven't, please avail yourself because one day you'd be called out.
I had personally experienced this awkward moment too, i did a lot of rubbish on my first day I was called out to lead a prayer, I tried to dodge it but the pastor said No I must be the one. Only God helped me that day.
There's one thing we must know when it comes to prayer, prayer is not speaking Grammer as people have succeeded to paint it, it's just a normal communication between you and God and if you are asked to say it openly, you shouldn't be running heater sketia looking for big Grammer No! Say it the way you feel from your heart, with this you'll feel ease.
Should I talk about dancing? Lol
How good are you in dancing? Do you know that if you don't know how to dance at all or shy when it comes to dancing, there's every probability that you'd be embarrassed one day with your Inability to dance?
I remember a certain man that doesn't know how to dance, when it got to his wedding day he had to hire a dance instructor to coach him before that day. Even a night before his wedding day, he locked himself in a room to rehearse on his steps hahah🤣.
Some people may say, it's not a must to dance on a good step on their wedding day so no need to learn, that's very okay but have you thought of going to a friend's birthday party and you are called out by the MC to the dance floor? I've experienced this often times, I've been called out several times on birthday parties and I made sure I embarrassed myself with some odd dance steps,.......I was giving them a church dance step while a hot hip hop song was played 🤣🤣🤣. It's just good to open up oneself to flexibility of our current system, flow with it and enjoy your life.
My thoughts
Just like I stated at the beginning of this article, these attribute won't add money to your account but they're there to spark up your living and also avoid shame. If you haven't talked in a public before, please avail yourself, get along with friends and try to lead arguments 👍🤣. If you haven't prayed in public before, should I say you can rehearse? Lol. I'd choose "practicing", yeah started practising it.
If you can't dance or shy to dance, please start with church gathering...with that you'd be dancing for God and not looking at who's watching you. Also, you could play videos on YouTube in your closet to practice some steps.
Happy birthday to @GarrethGrey07 , I wish you many more years! Dance! dance! dance!
This is my hilarious blog for the day.
