Retelling Old Tales Anew by Nobody: 3:19pm On Aug 14, 2015
Let's retell this old tale and see if you remember it.
Two good friends lived together, ate together, went to school together, prayed together and went everywhere together. There was hardly anything they never did together.
They finished school at the same time; they were both 25years old. Now they were done with youth service and wanted to get on with their life but didn't know what to do. After much thought they both decided to go and see their pastor, so they could know what their future had in store for them.
Their pastor told them that they had made the right decision in seeking for guidance from God. He prayed with them and told them what he saw.
Tunde the dark one was destined to be a very great man, rich and powerful.
Tolu the fair one was destined to be ok, not poor but not rich. Just moderately ok to get by.
They thanked their pastor and went their way.
Now Tunde was just too excited about his future that he didn't bother making any plans to achieve it.
Tolu on the other hand was busy thinking of ways to achieve his future since he wasn't going to be a rich man like Tunde.
Ten years later down the line Tolu is a powerful Business Mongul and Tunde is a teller at a local Bank.
Now I ask who decides his Future?
God has great plans for everyone but really who decides it?
