HIDING YOUR PILLOW! (Extracted from OPEN HEAVEN; by Pastor E. A Adeboye of Redeem Christain Church of God) A philosopher told a story sometime in 1952 or 1953. He said everyone coming into the world comes with a pillow of suffering and until the pillow is worn out, you wont die. Some will engage their pillow very early in life, struggle and work hard so that before middle age, their pillow is worn out, leaving them to spend the rest part of their lives in pleasure. But some will hide their pillows in the ceiling without getting the pillow worn, they will fetch it from the ceiling and start to work at old age. When you see some old men working as gate keepers, some selling firewood, some pushing trucks, while some are engaging in hard-labour jobs, its likely because they hid their pillows while they were youths. While some people who started working hard early in life are retiring at 40 or 45 years, others are just starting work at 60 years of age. Are you young? Engage your hands in something legitimate and God-glorifying. Dont fold your hands! If there is no job, you can create one for yourself. ASK GOD FOR INSPIRATION! NOTE: If you will not work until you get your dream job, you are lazy and operating outside of faith. But if you excel in little jobs, they will pave way for the dream job to come. LESSON: Learn to maximise your energy to achieve greatness for yourself while you are still young, for time is coming that you will not have the opportunity to do those things that you still have the privilege to do today. DONT BE LAZY. HAVE A GLORIOUS DAY!
