You are human. There is always something that makes you weary and something you may be wary of. We must live in acceptance because it is the access to accomplishments.

Our weaknesses we must accept. Our fears we must explore. Our emotions we must put to the service of our discovered mission as we seek to attain our vision.

Everyone, every creature does have a blind spot. The Author wanted us where we would always have to seek and rely on Him.

If you do not hunger, you do not get filled. If you do not crave, you do not seek, and if you do not seek, you do not find.

We must all get to the practical realization that the Author is the only portion we seek and should have.

It is the reason we have and own NOTHING. Tell me ONE thing you own.

Flesh is man's burden. It is a vehicle of pain ruled by the carnal spirit. When we sow to the flesh, we reap weariness.

Each of us is wired differently. It is the only reason that no two persons have the same fingerprints.

Things never happen for many persons at the same time. We do not all mature at the same time. Nature is not patterned that way.

Go into any field sown of the same crop on the same day, transplanted from the nursery sown the same day.

Some would bring forth fruit before the others. It is not a deficiency. It is natural selection.

Sometimes it cannot be explained. If you seek to know why it is so, you may linger forever.

There are things we will find after we exit this space. We will understand it by and by.

The only thing we can do now is to accept. This is the signature of faith. It is the supersense that gives us the balance we seek. It helps us to dwell in the unseen from where all things proceed.

You are dearly beloved being made human by the Author. By your humanity you share divinity with the Maker.

Ponder on that a moment and imagine the almost limitless power at your behest.

Do not worry about being weary. Worry when you cannot find a reason to express gratitude for whatever happens to you.

Showing gratitude is sending out rare energy. Energy multiplies and grows where energy goes.

Men have ceased to use gratitude. Thus, the Gratitude Account is in the red.

The majority show gratitude only when their bread is buttered. They do not connect to the reality that when they are denied some pleasures, it is for their preservation.

What a misuse of divinity in human flesh. Is flesh not man's great burden?

Albeit, gratitude is uncanny power. When we use it, we multiply that which we express thanks for.

It is the mysterious power of faith, the supersense.

The things we fail to accept are the same we reject. The gifts we undermine are the things we undervalue. Our understanding is unfruitful for we are blinded to our divinity.

Life is made of more. Life is in the unseen. The natural man seeth not beyond his flesh, which came only after his spirit, formed in the likeness of his Author.

What a miserable existence of the creature who knoweth not what he has received but running after what he has not!

What does man nurture then when he denies or is in ignorance of what he has? To what does he sow?

How do you claim a promise you are ignorant of? How do you activate a provision you are oblivious of?

Man must live in the acceptance of what he has been given. This is the only way he can find it if he seeks it.

You can only mine the mine that you know. You cannot be otherwise. Your mind is your mine. It is your treasure. It is your consciousness. It is your goldmine.

How can he seek it in the distractions that cause him confusion in the countless spaces he is lost in?

The answers you seek outside of you begin within you. This is your greatest treasure yet.

"Mr Joseph Ayeni's book is a well researched compendium that addresses several, but salient subjects that can significantly enhance human dignity, success and fulfilment."
