THE POWER OF A POSITIVE CHARACTER
SCRIPTURE: And he left all that he
had in Joseph's hand; and he knew not ought he had, save the bread
which he did eat. And Joseph was a goodly person, and well favoured. Genesis 39:5-7
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: One of the greatest determinants of a person’s destiny is character.
I once heard the story of a young man who went to an airport to
board a flight. While entering the aircraft, he saw an old man who was
struggling with his luggage and opted to assist the man carry the
luggage.
The old man was amazed that there were still such humble young men
in our world. While they were conversing, the young man mentioned a
company in Lagos, Nigeria, as one of his clients that he made supplies
to. Unknown to him, the old man’s son was the Managing Director (MD) of
that company. The company owed him some money in millions of Naira.
After their conversation, the old man gave him his complimentary card.
When the young man met with the MD of the company, he showed him
the complimentary card. The MD was excited that the young man met his
father. Immediately, his money was released and more business
opportunities were given to him, all on the frequency of good character.
Beloved, one of the greatest determinants of a person’s destiny is
character. There is a character that multiplies opportunities and there
is a character that diminishes opportunities. Always uphold a good
character.
Remember this: One of the greatest determinants of a person’s destiny is character.
