Good day ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada back on script and we about to grow today because this piece has certain truths that has to be told. Maybe you need to tell it to yourself or someone has to tell it to you but then either way we about to grow everybody, so let’s get to it.

So I’ve titled today’s piece acceptance. In a simple dictionary meaning acceptance means: taking something that somebody offers you or asks you to have … well that definition was not what or made neither of the point or points I was trying to get to make here. The acceptance I’m talking about is when you get to the point of gratitude and have all your responses be like  “yes Lord , thank you Lord, your way lord , your word Lord” or the popular saying these days is “it is what it is” . Now with that being said I’m not encouraging the type of acceptance where you’d stick around to be taken advantage of. Sadly so in life at times when we put others first – when we altruistic then we taken advantage of.

The point I’m trying to make or type of acceptance I’m trying to explain is that when you come to a reality check and reflection enough to realize that “hey I’m actually getting wasted here” . Now once again when I say wasted I’m not speaking of drinking yourself beyond control to get away from your reality for as long as you’ll be under the influence. Guys  I’m talking about sticking around and getting wasted by people you know are purposefully wasting literally anything and everything you offering and this is because you around, available and reliable.

Not everyone we picture ourselves together with will actually end up part of our lives . Allow that to sink in because it is a tough pill to swallow and I know so. We might say I don’t care infront of others but at times we cannot come to terms with reality from within. You know it is true as lighting ones mind is a very powerful weapon because at times we meet people and or situations and we already picture and project how everything will turn out and when it does we shatter.

Well that is why we are encouraged to love everyone on earth and yet trust absolutely NOBODY. Only God deserves our trust because He is not a man to lie and or fail us if only you’d avail yourself for Him.

So I wrote today’s post because I know at times if not every day and in every situation we choose to overlook the truth because it hurts us. Well then unfortunately sulking will help NOBODY because it hasn’t done so before and it certainly won’t start now.

My encouragement today is that we accept ourselves and our lives as is. Accept your family as is – not everyone was fortunate to be born in a family where money is a member of the family. Not everyone can live in the same societal status because we won’t know ourselves. Accept your standout points for what they are. Accept that you won’t be like everyone else. Accept that even as a family you won’t always be at peace and ease with one another yet they the exact same people you wouldn’t exchange in this world. Accept that not everyone will understand your logic , not even your own mother but then that’s why you are related and not exactly in the same body 😁.

Quick testimony on behalf of a friend : her dad left them because the mom had two daughters and he so badly wanted a son, that thing damaged the entire household’s relationship with the dad. I mean like it’s the male organism that actually determines the gender of a child but then that is the sad and disgusting reality of many of our African homes. So the dad left the family  and left the mom to single handedly care for the girls on her own. This caused the mother’s family to label her all sorts of common names along with the husband’s family too because she couldn’t save her marriage. My friend battled with so much insecurities growing up because at first they would force themselves to be in the dad’s life, or have him in their lives but it didn’t work until they were encouraged by who I cannot remember to prayer to God for acceptance and slowly but surely the void still had it’s effects but yoh we move and they moved for the better because they can now come to terms with reality and just be grateful to God because it is His will to be done and not theirs. I witnessed her grow and change for the better once she had accepted this prayer and actually did t just pray it no more for the sake of prayer but she changed for the better because she trusted God to fill this having a father figure in her life ambition for her and hey He did and does. I mean imagine knowing the area your parent lives in but you go there praying to not see him because it ends in on one insult or the other. We human you know and eventually we put our foot down and be like that’s it I’m done then that’s it.

Guys the world and the life we live on these grounds are nowhere compared to those we would love with Christ one day but it can be if you ensure every moment of yours is lived in peace , gratitude and acceptance towards what you cannot control.

Today I encourage you to pray to God to be able to remain going when nothing is working out for you, Tru dat that maybe you’ll loose some and have to start at the very beginning to build up again but what else would you do that go back to the source and often when you go check out your source you’d realize there is an innocent lack of acceptance there. Pray to God that you can do your best in all situations. Pray that you can accept reality without always asking why because then you’ll be able to hear God say “ENOUGH” as response to all you battle with , because” the battle is the Lords’* beloved.

Last but not least if you are in South Africa or just know about it then *Happy Youth Day*. I say celebrate your youth because with the blink of an eye it might all be over and with that being sad be wise how you celebrate 💋.

Ladies and gentlemen I’ve spoken quite a lot but hope that I’ve gotten a message across if not 02 on acceptance. It’s a very sensitive topic for many others and forgive me if I came across unsympathetic at all in any of my lines but then hey somebody has to be the bad guy in order for us all to genuinely and fully grow and keep at that feel(s) and ambiance.
