COLORS IN MY WORLD (sequel to EPITOME)

Anchor Scripture:

Ecclesiastes 4:12 GNB

Two people can resist an attack that would defeat one person alone. A rope made of three cords is hard to break.

The statement "You color my world" is quite popular, it might mean different things to different people but the generally it means "You make me a better person"

That means, when you say or tell someone, you color my world, or you are the colors in my world, you are saying:

Thank you for making me a better person in life.

You color my world with love, with hope, with happiness, with your powerful words.

You inspire me.

You make my life Beautiful.

You are saying, whatever it is you are doing is making me a better person.

It has been established in the prequel article "EPITOME" that you will always need people, people who can be depended on, people who have crossed similar rivers as yours, people ahead in your industry, people who will be your extra eyes, people who have more experience than you, who will give an honest feedback and bring out your uniqueness.

As much as we all have personalities ready to do all above-mentioned and more, experiencing the required result lies in your hands as an individual, sustaining the colors in your world is your responsibility, maintaining the relationships in your life and the level of 'being a better person' is your responsibility.

We live in a world where things are bound to change, I think the phrase we used most often is 'Life happens’, circumstances that changes our reactions and thinking, just like an artist while painting, the right mixture of colors gives the expected result, but a slight change in the measure will definitely produce a different result. Things change with us as humans based on the happening within us, physically, spiritually, mentally and emotionally. Which is why we need to align our lives with God’s desires, we need to mirror His desires for, so as to remain on track when those changes occur.

Our lives are full of possibilities through the relationships we are in, but before we can experience the beauteousness, we need to do and consider the following.

Acknowledge your place in your Life.

Do not depend on people to love you the way you should love yourself. It’s easier to focus on loving God and loving your neighbor and not loving yourself enough. You need to understand that who ever comes to your life or whatever they bring as an addition to you is still dependent on what you reflect - your thoughts, your facts, even what you understand as your purpose, if you are not at peace with yourself, you will misinterpret every act of kindness.

To love yourself is to acknowledge God’s love and confess the truth of His love.

If God sees you as a champion, then you need to see yourself as one, acknowledge what He has spoken about you. When you do all these, you will not only reflect them, you will become them, your colors pops out beautiful and the impact of others in your life become evident.

2. The Level of your attention to each Individual.

Discern where the individuals in your life stand - their position on the spectrum, whether they are your acquaintance or they have moved to the close friends stage, whether they are here to stay of just for a season. Ask yourself questions like, what do I want to achieve in life? what do they want to achieve in life, how will they come in, each answers will give a hint of your attention needed and the hold they have on you.

Yes, they are all an addition to your life, they made you a better person, they make you like yourself more, but there is a need for a balance, If color red should take over all the spaces on the spectrum of colors, the rainbow will never be as colorful as it is. You need to discern why they are in your life and what needs to be done.

3. Expectation.

Unmet expectations breeds frustration.

Relationships should flow naturally, stop expecting too much from people.

The atmosphere an acquaintance will create is not the same with that of your mentor, just like the view a white painted room gives is quite different from that of a green painted room.

Don’t put the work of Ten People on a person, Don’t expect your spouse to perform the role of God, enjoy your relationship with yourself and also enjoy the one you have with others, like I mentioned earlier, don’t depend on people to love you the way you should love yourself, don’t depend on men to love you like your Creator would - There are voids only God can fill and we need to rely on Him only for help.

Your life is a Rainbow of possibilities, Identify each colors - person in your life, appreciate them for who they are and then acknowledge their position in making the spectrum - making your life more colorful.

There is a place everyone you have a chance of meeting hold in your destiny, many of them have an assignment to fulfill in your life and many you have an assignment to fulfill in their’s, either ways, the end result is a colorful life, It is your place now to discern their role, the right level of your attention and the expectations you placed on them and yourself. There are many colors in our world, not dimming their light is our responsibility.
