There's a giant within and he's so scary. Conquer him and live or become his slave
Michaelo
At each point in life, there's always an obstacle, hurdle, challenge or crucible which we must overcome to move on to the next level of our lives.
I call them the giants. They are of different sizes and shapes.
But there's an eternal obstacle which we apparently face all through the days of our lives. It is the obstacle of the self. I call him the
GIANT WITHIN.
This giant is genuinely the hardest, roughest and toughest challenge one can face.
Most people end up not defeating it till they die. Some become its slave eternally while the others willfully aid it to grow up more bigger.
Little wonder the great philosopher Plato rightly said
" The first and greatest success is that of conquering one's self"
Our model ,Our Lord Jesus Christ conquered it so as to give himself to death on the cross.
So a pertinent question I ask once more
Have you defeated that giant within?
Or are you breeding it in ego?
