The Moment Of Tear

Source
Life is tough to some people, life is easy to some people- Life is unfair. There are times that your wish may be hard to achieve, while your wish may come easily.
There were three friends that made a wish while they were children.

“I wish to become Pele, one of the greatest footballers in the history of football.- George
Innocent replied, “hmm! Pele never won the world Cup, why can't you take another footballer as your role model?”
“If Pele was a European, he would have won the Ballon D'or seven times but the prestigious award was restricted to American players at that time.” - George

“I don't like Football: our brothers were very good in their prime but they didn't reach any height in football. They were playing local ball until they were 30 years old. Once, one is 30 years old, his football career is about to end. For me, my wish is to become a politician. Politicians enjoy till death because they switched from politicians to God's father where they receive returns.” - Innocent

The name of the third person was Joshua, he said, “Whatever one becomes in life, he/she will die. It Is very important to have consciousness of Almighty God in our hearts. What is the profit of gaining the whole world and ending up in hell fire? We just have temporary times to spend on Earth, or how many people have spent more than 300 years on Earth except the one we read in the Bible? We will surely die but our time to die may difference because we didn't come to this world the same time. Therefore, my wish is to become a preacher. Not because of money but because there's nothing as profit as to become a genuine preacher. You will have confidence that anytime you die you are going to God's kingdom, and you are bringing people to the Kingdom. No matter how hard it is, I won't backslide.”
“The least thing I could wish for myself is to become preacher; how could you wish yourself to become a preacher? you have to rethink your wish because if you need my help I will not help because pastor doesn't have money, they depends on tithe and offering, lying that it is God’s money. I hate them” - Innocent
Joshua Replied, You can serve God genuinely and be begging. God will not allow his people to beg.”

Joshua studied Petroleum engineering, but throughout his 4 years in school, he was preaching gospel to students. Despite of his work schedule, he was never absent in evangelism, hours of prayer, night virgin and several Christian meetings. He graduated with first class and got scholarship to study master in United Kingdom. he was also one of the best graduating students while he was doing his master in United Kingdom.

Innocent studied political science, he graduated with second class upper. innocent lifestyle in the school wasn't portrait his name. He was a dirty innocent, attending night party, having multiple sexual partners, and joined secret society.

Joshua did not give up on winning souls to God's kingdom. Wherever he was, He made sure to join a church and participating in everything.
He meet a man while he was in United Kingdom, “Hello Joshua, you might be Wonder how I know your name but believe there is no church members that doesn't know your name. You are vibrant and consistent! what is your Job here?"
" Sir, I just finished my Master in petroleum engeering, I'm traveling back to my country to start up something”
The man replied “that is good, I have been thinking to expand my business to Africa countries and one of the country is Nigeria. where are you from Joshua?"

"I'm from Nigeria sir” Joshua
“That is good, I export cars to different countries in the world, I want to expand by business to Nigeria. are you interested?”
With happiness and joy in his heart, Joshua Replied," very well sir.”

That was how Joshua ended up of becoming car dealer in Nigeria. He was relent on only business, he was also searching for job in oil company since he had sales boy and girl. Joshua was given an appointment by Chevron, one of the oil company in Nigeria.

Joshua’s business was growing, He began to expand the car business to another state and neighboring countries- Nigeria, Benin Republic, Cameron, Ghana, Togo, Burkinafaso, etc.
Joshua Built 20,000 capacity church in Lagos adjacent to his own house. He finished the building, and decorated it.
someone asked Joshua, Why are you building big church instead of investing in real estate?”
He replied, "Without God, I cannot become what I become today. My family was very poor, and among three of us that made wish, my family wasthe poorest. MY parents could not afford to sponsor me to higher institution, it was God that sent me to my life. God is everything to me, and there's nothing I can do without him. It is in my heart to build house to our God.”

Joshua was becoming great and wealthy, but he wasn't never back down on church. He was more consistent than ever! With his job and business, he was never skip a church in a day, going to evangelism every Saturday, preaching in the church every service day and night, helping needy in church, sponsoring more than 50 students in higher institutions in and out of the country.
Some people were thinking that as wealthy he was, he should send men to evangelism and not him. Joshua didn't listen to them, he was going with his crew and soul were brought to the church.

Joshua resigned from oil company because he was exceedingly great and wealthy. He focused on his business and work of God.

Joshua's First Miracle
The first miracle was during Sunday service, a lame man from his birth came to church and walked home with his feet.
The fame of his church was everywhere! Three days Crusade was organized in the church. Within 48 hours of crusade, more than 100 miracles had taken places- blind saw, deaf heard, dump spoke, cancers disappeared, kidney restored, just to mention a few.

life was tough for innocent who was aiming to become a politician. He finally became a private school teacher; he got married two children. He was attending party meeting but wasn't recognized because he had nothing and was struggling for survival. He cannot contest for the lowest political post which is councilor in his home town.
One day, the secret court he joined while he was in the school came to his home and killed two of his children because he killed people while he was in the school. At this time, Innocent ran away from home.

Innocent and his wife ran to George to hide. George was working with state government and the bills he paid every month swallowed George's salary. He was living in penury but far better than innocent.

The made a plan to visit Joshua, the called him “Hello Joshua, innocent and I want to visit you in you house?”

He replied, "What a good news, we haven't seen each other after NYSC service. Bring your families along so that we can dine together.”

The First Time Joshua Saw Them
The moment he saw the, he was very happy and hugged them. “My friends how are you doing, why are you like this, I was expecting to see you big; Tell me what is happening? where are you working now?"

The moment of Tear
When innocent and George told Joshua their live ordeal, The three friends were in TEAR. Joshua prayed for them, built house and bought car for both of them; established them in the business of their choices.

When innocent remember the words he spoke to Joshua when he said he wanted to become a preacher.
"You have to rethink your wish because if you need my help I will not help because pastor doesn't have money, they depends on tithe and offering, lying that it is God’s money. I hate them”. - Innocent
he cried bitterly, and asked for forgiveness.

We don't know who will help who, that is the reason we just have to be good to everyone in words and actions. We shouldn't look down on someone because of his present status; We shouldn't speak against one’s career or passion, One it is a good career, we just need to advise and push them to achieve it. The same goes to our children.
