#FootstepsofGREATNESS [5a]
Abraham took his wife, brother's son and all the people that were with him to Canaan. Genesis 12:5
Great people help people.
Contrary to common belief, great people do not help people because they are great. Great people became great because they helped people.
Ruth -a poor immigrant lady from Moab became a great ancestor in the Messiah's earthly lineage because she helped Naomi succeed
David - a little shepherd boy in the field became one of the greatest kings Israel ever had because he helped Israel defeat Goliath
Rebecca, an originally no-name young woman became the Princess of "Prince Isaac" because she helped Eliezer water his camel
Naaman's Maid - a no-name little girl with aprons as garment became a trans-generational hero of super intervention and rescue because she helped her master get cure for leprosy
A poor widow with her last meal became an oil-merchant because she shared her humble meal with a man of God.
Martin Luther King Jr. became a world hero because he helped black people in America
The list goes on....
But millions of people have missed great opportunities to rise because they are searching for help from "big people" and have ignored small opportunities to help people.
The path to GREATNESS is walked by people carrying people on their shoulders.
Unfortunately many more will continue to miss these opportunities until they learn that LIFE is governed by the law of MUTUAL EXCHANGE or what my bible calls SEED and HARVEST.
The reward we get from our endeavours are often in exchange for the problems we solved for others or the value we add to people.
What we do for others is our seed. What we get in return is our harvest.
