What Will You Gain By Oppressing Others?

in #life5 years ago

The image above is a screenshot I took of a friend's WhatsApp status update yesterday. It passed a great message to me and I wish to share too.

Life can not be fair at the same time to everyone. There are those that will be opportune to meet great opportunities while others will not. So you that is opportune in life to meet great things, don't use what you have to oppress others but rather use it to help others.

This morning I was watching a video on Facebook about a preacher [Apostle Johnson Suleiman]: where in the course of preaching one Sunday he sighted one of his old time friend who assisted him while things were bad for him, he embraced him and recounted the experience they had together about 20 years ago. Now this friend came with public transport but then Apostle Johnson promised giving him a car and other things right there in the church.

The above was possible because the other man was good to his friend [Apostle] and when the table turned around after many years, he met Apostle Johnson and things were made right for him.

My friend, you will gain nothing by being wicked and oppressing those you are better off than. Don't use the good things that God has blessed you with to oppress those who don't have because you don't know what tomorrow may bring and what it has in store.

Be good to people so that tomorrow you will not regret why you refused helping others to move ahead in life. Never look down on people because tomorrow you may need to look up to them to help your life.
