Who Do We Give Honor To?

Who Do We Give Honor To

There are many people we do honour in life. When you honour means you give reverence to some set of people or someone. There is a saying that gives honour to those whose honour is. Many people today are celebrated just because of their records, while something is honoured just because of what they are doing right now or presently.

Let's go

The first person and being I have in mind to give honour to is our Creator, who is our God almighty. He has given us reasons to honour him. He made us who we are today and gave us life. Many are in the hospital spending lots of money on oxygen, but here we are enjoying the gift of nature which is the surrounding air. He gave us oxygen, through which we breathe in and out. Talking about your enemies, he devises a means through which your enemies will be chased away and very far away from you. Don't you think he is worthy to be honoured? Now, let's try our best to give him honour and praise him by singing songs of praise to him. This alone can awaken him to send down his blessings to you. Honour him at all costs. Also, tell people what he has done for you.

Heroes and Heroines: Yes... We truly need to honour our past heroes and Heroines, for they have given us the lead to follow. They have given us every reason to be great and tried certainly to make names in other for us to follow their leads. They have taught us all about their successful lives and how to follow those guidelines. The truth remains that, successful people are always successful because they are following the way and road to success. We have many of whom we can learn from because they have learned from some past heroes as well. Do you know that by following their leads, we can make headway to success? Although many people are not ready to rise to make success, we should always ignore those kinds of people and fight hard to make success a reality.

There is one woman whom I can always live to remember. She has taught our women how to inculcate the spirit of not relenting, but having the mind to push further. She has taught the women around them that their duties are not just to end in the kitchen in moving their careers to a point of reality. Likewise, she taught them to remain strong by fighting hard to without relenting. This is the kind of woman we all needed to push other relenting women forward. She is by name Dr Nngozi Okonjo well. She needs to be celebrated and honoured. Furthermore, she has single-handedly given the women strength to forge ahead and also made them understand that they have a future.

How then would she not be honoured?

- Parents: Your parents are to be honoured because they have made you who you are today. Your mother carried you from her womb up till your present status. Our mothers carried us for nine months in her womb and then take special care of us until we are men and women that is the adult stage. This is the major reason why no one would joke with his or her mother. Our father on the other hand will always go out to work for daily bread and how the family will live a better life. He gives out even when there is rain or sun. He doesn't care, but to be sure that his families are well-fed and taken care of. Our parents are our pride and the greatest and biggest ones to be celebrated and honoured. Remember that, it has been written in the Bible that we should honour our parents so that our days will belong.

- Pastor: Our pastors are the ones through which God speak to us. They are the servants of God, and they are trying their best to bring God to our doorsteps. Pastors are to be celebrated and honoured. They have made us understand the Bible to some extent and also have made us draw close to God. Knowing the good and the bad and whom to follow have been their priorities. Pastors are God's way of reaching the masses. So, they should be honoured because when you abuse them meaning you are abusing God. The fact remains that, we do not know the mind of men and so, we are not in the right place to judge people.
