Travelling across the globe exposes the stark contrast in how nations treat their currency, and by proxy, their sovereignty. In Canada, exchanging US dollars wasn’t always seamless. The UK revolves around pounds, rarely quoting in euros. In India, foreign currency holds little value in their commerce, and converting dollars to rupees is difficult—almost impossible in reverse. South Africa is no different. Meanwhile, in Sierra Leone, Zimbabwe, Nigeria, and Ghana, even governments price projects in dollars. Whilst citizens of some nations fiercely protect their currency, others rather are unhappy when their currency thrives.
My decision to embrace a walk of faith brought a drastic shift in my perspective—a realisation that I am not an accident in creation! And that, I was placed in Ghana for a purpose and equipped to thrive within the resources available.
Introspection
1. Why do some abandon their roots after finding faith, then wonder why we remain underdeveloped?
2. Shouldn’t we question any change that separates us from our heritage if we truly worship the Master Creator?
Reflection
🥊 Throughout history, faith has been a driving force behind transformation, innovation, and societal progress.
🥊Yet, when faith is misunderstood or misapplied, it can lead to disconnection—sometimes from culture, responsibility, and the very foundation that makes a person unique.
🥊Isn’t it a tragicomic crime scene to observe how those who create their own problems often turn around and complain about life’s unfairness?
🥊Indeed, time and again, the same individuals who weaken systems, strain marriages, disrupt family unity, or hinder collective progress are the very ones who turn around and claim to be victims.
🧯 Why must we continue to sabotage the bridge and complain about the river’s depth?
🧯A shaky foundation can never support the weight of our frustrations.
🧯The consequences of our own missteps often come back amplified—we must remain vigilant to avoid creating our own downfall.
🧯 Why not elect to be a quality building block from now on?
⏳ Serenity ⌛
☦️The fire we light will not pity us when it burns.
🛐May wisdom guide us so we never pave the way to our own downfall. Amen.
