2018, I moved to Ogun state and had to seek employment in a school within my vicinity. As a Lagos teacher, I was used to a vibrant class, swift answers and mushy acts by my students. So I resumed at my new work place with that fully charged energy. The first day got me confused. I was to teach the primary classes, I started my class and it was obvious these children were not following. They could neither understand what I was saying nor did they show any bit of interest. It was then I knew I had to start from the scratch. First, I had to create a connection. I wanted them to understand that I am first their friend. I needed to set the foundation that they can have both a friend and teacher in one. After that, I came down to their level. I made them feel and appreciate every little progress they made. I built up their interest in education. We worked together, applying several strategies I discovered and created, and within some month the growth was evident. Eureka is a book that ...
i wrote about the Oprah type of decision last time which is a decision which doesn't have a strong foundation. Today we would be studying the other decision which i named the Ruth decision.
Ruth's decision: After Oprah decided to yield to Naomi by going to her fatherland there was one person who was still determined to go with Naomi and that was RUTH. Now i wondered why Ruth still held onto her decision even after Oprah decided to go home.
i came up with the following reasons as to why she still stood her grounds:
1) her decision wasn't based on Oprah's own
2) she has put several things into consideration before making the decision
3) she was seeing beyond the present
her decision was able to stand the test of time because it wasn't a decision based on the situation at that time.
it wasn't a decision based on someone else's decision
it was a decision that saw beyond the present situation
it was a decision that is rooted deep into the ground
it was a decision based on GOD.
when making decision you shouldn't be in a haste least you be destroyed by that same decision.
your decision should involve God because him alone can see beyond the present.
we can see how Ruth decision changed her life positively. though getting to Naomi hometown things didn't look too good but because her decision saw beyond the present she had a glorious end and her generation begot JESUS CHRIST all because of a solid decision she took.
whats foundation is your decision built on?
