DO NOT DOUBT YOUR ABILITIES
Doubt is
a symptom of fear; and this could bury a dream before it’s born; that was the
only enemy or barrier that could have weighed Vasco Da Gamma down when
he was discovering the sea route to India, but he bound such fears before time.
Despite all the troubled waters from the stormy sea weather to the deadly
animals (creatures) inside the waters, he didn’t wished God to dry up the
turbulent seas or reduce the volatility of the situations; hence prayed for a
divine powers and enablement for him to sail through (over) the waters.
As a
matter of fact, Abraham Lincoln of the United States was a faithful believer of
dreams; who, after all attempts and efforts to become a notable figure in the
American political history; which almost ended up fruitlessly as a result of
one failure to another (from the senatorial to the gubernatorial, presidential
etc) which later saw the light of the day when it was almost over (as the
president of God’s own country – the United States of America at the age of 52
(fifty two).
Abraham
Lincoln was a true servant of patience; and a true believer of himself, he knew
his dreams wouldn’t die prematurely; hence he took the best medicine that cured
his fears, denial of breaking from the bondage of stopping his desires and
killing his dreams before birth – that medicine was “DETERMINATION” which made him one of the most respected American
president ever.
Standing
tall in the face of obstacles depends on our ability to know whom we are and
where we are going to, irrespective of situations surrounding the motives;
because, if we do not know whom we are; people may tend to mistake us for whom
we are not, and when we do not know where we are going to, someone else might
take us to another destination (where we may not even know or wished to go)
(i.e. ignorance).
Moreover,
doubting is a barrier to growth; or breaking through from any form of
enslavement – it could be financial, social or religious, which was exactly why
Abraham and Sarah of the Holy bible were able to produce children when their
child-bearing times were over – but having known that nothing is impossible
before God, as long as they believed; and at last it came to pass– that was faith
of the highest order without doubts.
