Nigeria On Fire! Who Will Quench The Fires by honeybunch83: 2:30pm On Aug 29, 2014 |
Pastor Eruke Tasoos Wanted! Once upon a time,a small bird named Tasoo lived in a vast jungle. One hot summer day,a terrible wildfire erupted and the flames devoured many trees& animals living in the jungle. Other birds flew high into the and silver house this was a little bit hey sky& far away to safety,but Tasoo couldn't bear to leave her precious jungle home to burn. Day &nite, she flew with all might back &forth to the river, filling her tiny beak wit water to drop on the raging fires. Tasoo's rare heart of courage& unshakable determination moved the heavenly God to shed tears& a great rain poured down upon the jungle, extinguishing the flames. And so it is that even the smallest actions of a determined spirit can change the world-- yes, can better our. country, Nigeria. Looking around, it is possible there are some issues and challenges that are like fires. These fires seems to be threatening to burn our country down and it seems your efforts are just like the little water in Tasoo's beak. I beseech you, even when others seem not to be giving a helping hand, DON'T QUIT on your good efforts. Keep pouring the waters of Prayers, Counsel, Labor, Actions etc on that fire. Keep going back and forth, night and day. Even though it seems your efforts are so minute and making no difference, I know in just a little while some of these fires will be quenched. Will You be a Tasoo for Nigeria? Note: Tasoos Needed for Nigeria. With past and recent occurences in Nigeria, I hope our Country,Nigeria isn't degenerating into a jungle being consumed by wildfires? Last time I checked,wildfires of Corruption,Bad Governance, Planless Policies,Inefficiencies& Deceitfulness of our leaders,Greed & Unbridled Pursuit of Mammon, were consuming a part of Nigerian "forest of flowers" (Apologies to Ken Saro-Wiwa) A look through my window reveals billows of smoke caused by raging flaming fires of Boko Haram, Labor and workers strike, Ethno-Religious wars, Ethnic Jingoism, Political Chicanery, Capital & even Intellectual flight to western world, Unimaginable Brain Drain etc. Oh! Strange fires of moribund infrastructures, Moral Decadence, Systemic &Institutional corruption are fast consuming every tree in sight. Oh! I weep for the ashes of Poverty, Half-baked Graduates, Low-Life Expectancy level, Maternal & Infant Mortality that I saw somewhere around this jungle called Nigeria. Oh!! I smell the badly burnt flesh of Mr Security, Mrs Peace, Mr& Mrs Religious Tolerance. Just beyond the River lies Mr Ethnic Harmony, Bro Development& Mrs. Unity (nee Progress)-- it seems they will survive this high degree burns if quickly taken to the hospital--but I think our Government hospitals got burnt by the raging twin fires of poor-funding& under-staffing! Friends, the water in your beak may be to little to fully stop these raging fires,but it can provoke rains of other people's efforts to quench these fires! Whether your efforts will be physical or spiritual, in any way you can, please be a Tasoo for Nigeria. Be a Tasoo for Nigeria TODAY.
