Do Your Part

"Let me go, take off this lock!" Kunle aggressively said to Kehinde. Kehinde who was expressively confused looked at him with his mouth ajar. He was more confused about the fierce look on Kunle's face as much as he was getting offended by the abuses and accusations Kunle was laying on him. Not minding him, he stepped out of the house. Few days later he came back and to his surprise Kunle repeated what he did the last time, ignoring him, he left without saying a word.
A week later, he decided to come back to see if Kunle had gotten over whatever had been eaten him up. He was wowed to see Kunle in the same position he left him the last few times but this time he had had it up to his neck. He had to speak before Kunle would start calling him names. 
Kehinde simply told Kunle to put his hands out the protector and take off the padlock holding the gate against him cause it was opened. Kunle, trying out what Kehinde said to his utmost surprise realized all this while he had been free but he caged himself without knowing. He foolishly stayed there blaming Kunle without even trying to reach out to the lock on the gate. He was ignorant of the fact that the gate was open.
Kunle feeling discomfited, apologised to Kehinde and thanked him for opening his eyes to the truth.

******************

The message is simple. 
Most of us are like Kunle, always putting the blame of what is not working for us on people, things, witches from our village, government, economy, the system, church, etc not knowing that we are the ones who chose to be ignorant on taking those steps to release us.
Our problem usually is us. 
Get your hands out there and unlock those fears keeping you from moving forward. When you have God, you need not fear. 
Do your part and He will do the rest.

I rest my case.
