Breaking Point?

Breaking point?

BY MILLISA NWOKOLO

In the past, I would just throw myself on the floor deeply concerned about how I was going to pay the rent, the gas bill, and the electricity. Sometimes all 3 of them looming over my head at disconnect level.

I felt like I was the debt collector juggler every week; which one can I live without?, which one do I need to sort out immediately?

The seasons of winter and summer determine which one, most of the time. Yet, here I am, a woman whom God has helped, the bills get paid as when due, with much more ease than in the past. God in His time makes everything better. Amen!

It was in those painful breaking points, that I felt hopeless and no vision to see a way out of the circle that I knew. This hamster wheel of life kept me from really seeing my start-up business for the future it could have.

Recently, I asked a BIG freight brokerage firm, "What was your turning point when you could see your business for what it really is?".

In the bible, Abram lost Lot, his supporter whom he loved. He might have felt alone, unsure of the future. Yet, God says, "After Lot had gone, the LORD said to Abram, "Look as far as you can see in every direction- north and south, east and west. I am giving all this land, as far as you can see, to you and your descendants as a permanent possession. And I will give you so many descendants that, like the dust of the earth, they cannot be counted! Go and walk through the land in every direction, for I am giving it to you." Genesis 13:14-17 NLT

Deep inside of me, I already knew the answer to what kept me captive for so many years, captive to only seeing failure, where others go through breaking pain points of growth and see Vision and Purpose.

I want you to fight the blindness of your circumstances. I will share with you some of the turning points, that helped me to develop Vision and Purpose.
