A pattern is like a way people do things and it
keeps going on and on for years. Before now, I used to write down my beautiful
ideas and in most cases, I would file the ideas and that ended it. Execution
never happened. I thought about everything and I realized that my father used
to do same thing. When I was growing up, I discovered so many bright ideas
written down but filed away in his drawer. Those ideas never saw the light of
day and I tell you, they are obsolete now.
Sir, whether you believe it or not, there are some
things (good or bad) that you are doing that you unconsciously inherited from
your either your father or mother or both of them. In my own case, the bad one
I inherited was fear of what if it doesn’t work. I was always scared of doing
what needed to be done because I didn’t want to be tagged a failure. Maybe
Solomon might not have become a lover of too many strange women but looking at
his parental pattern, you will discover that his father loved women.
Seeing his father’s lifestyle, Solomon took it to
the highest level. Bible records it that Solomon had 700 wives and 300
concubines. This eventually led to his destruction despite the colorful future
he had. Sir, if you will not break that deadly and dangerous pattern, it will
not allow you become the best God created you to be. Maybe yours is the wrong
mindset of resources are scarce or money is only found in the mouth of the lion
or whatever wrong pattern it is.
The scriptures says, “Be ye transformed by the
renewing of your mind.” To shock you, since I broke this pattern, I can’t
remember failing, I can only remember learning and progressing. If the pattern
or lifestyle didn’t make your father or mother a better person, please break it
before it breaks you.
Enjoy!
