Time is neither late nor early
You either start now or not
Space is neither full nor empty
You either register presence or not
Direction is neither right nor wrong
You either realise bearing or not
Magnitude is neither big nor small
You either own it or not
Life is neither this nor that
You either make it so or not
– Osasu Oviawe
Matthew 10:17-22
Beware of men; for they will deliver you up to councils, and flog you in their synagogues, and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them and the Gentiles. When they deliver you up, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour; for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.
Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death; and you will be hated by all for my name’s sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.
Homily
Salvation is not a power race. It is an endurance race.
There is no known finish line. You will know when it is finished.
You cannot prepare for all that will come. All that will come will work for your good.
Salvation is a journey of one. One is never alone.
