GIVE YOUR TALENT A ROOM FOR GERMINATION AND FRUITING!

“I didn't have to stumble and grope stealthily in the darkness, stride recklessly on the rocky paths or swim nonchalantly in the murky waters.
Neither did I gamble with the hypothetical cards, nor stroll through life at ease with no aim and subjected to all whims and caprice.”


By Olajumoke Hadassah


It wasn't a submission to hobby, desires and ambitions!
The story of my talent is a reality settled before my existence. It was one predestined from the foundation of the world.

Am I a born writer? I think so. But more importantly, I am made, and still in the making.
I started writing at a young age. I was an ardent writer of 'story books.' And I finished my first 'complete' book at the age of thirteen. My writing has an history, one which began right in my home.
With my Father as a writer, my first experience in the literary world was inside his 'Room-Library'. At a point I felt my head was going to explode from too much Shakespeare and several other authors.
I remember I spent three year awaiting admission inside that library, it was a super-encounter for life! And really, I am a 'wolf' when it comes to books.

And the journey started! With over 200 articles and expositories, a completed (unpublished) book, an almost completed #SoonToBeReleased# book and magazine, journals, editorials duties and a Word-based ministry, the journey into fulfillment has only began!

Discovering talent is relatively easy, establishing it is difficult and sustaining it is even more grilling.
The room we give talent therefore encompasses the discovery and most importantly sustainability and continuity. These ingredients sets the one who pursues apart from the one who just seeks and stop there.

Does everyone have a talent?
There is nothing like shortchanging in the creation stable, every man has been endowed with a gift to make way for him.

Give your talent a room for germination and fruiting!
Protect it from 'You' and the world, both are ready to choke it!
Then, you will get your maximum fulfillment- the very essence of life.
I remember sometimes ago I stopped writing for some reasons and I suddenly became old and miserable. I mean I felt wrinkles on my face like an 80 year old woman. And I went about looking old and asking 'Do I look old?' So someone close to me asked 'When last did you write?' It was a jolting note.
Then I got back to it, and spontaneously I experienced the vibes of being young again. The desire for life came back, I am young all over!
It was not an age palaver, it was a matter of the heart seeking loyalties to where its fulfillment is.
Give your talent a room!

Continuity- the key to the room of talent manifestation!
The only step to sustainable achievement is an importune attitude, that rare kind of mindset when the world gives up on you.

Finally, Myles Munroe said 'for you to get the design of a product, you must contact the manufacturer.' (Paraphrased)
This is the simple reason why the talents we so much celebrate sometimes do not still give peace, they are being used out of context! When we neglect the Giver and seek to find joy in His gift, then the intensity of misery and emptiness is exponentially increased.

For you to give your talent a room, you must give your Maker the whole house.
Let Him start with the foundation and watch as your talents begin to grow beyond the rooms into the chambers and high places of the world!
You cannot operate the Divine Gift in a Divine Way unless you encounter the Divine Giver!

I choose to give my talent a room! That is the surest way to get announced to the whole world.
It is the simplest and most fulfilling kind of life I can live!



Hope to hear soon from you with the decision to give your talent a room...

FROM AN INSECURE HOUSEWIFE TO AN INTERNATIONAL CELEBRATED MAKEUP ARTIST By Love Olaleye As an undergraduate in the university, I engaged in different business like buying and selling clothes, making zobo, just to earn some money to augment the pocket money that never seemed enough. None of these businesses brought me the kind of joy I experienced when I decided to pursue my passion in makeup. First I became a Mary Kay rep; I would sell and show students how to use the products they bought. The joy that beams on their faces was fulfilling, despite the frustration of running after debtors. I remember my first bride who happened to have been my friend who was kind enough to allow me experiment on her face. As I drove out early hours of the morning around 6am, my car brakes suddenly failed, I ran into a tree off the road but God saved me, no scratch, I came out and the car was badly damaged. As the car was being towed home, it was a decisive moment, I had to decide w...
