How to help Yourself: Seth Agbeli Kunkpe
Life can be lived to the fullest if and only if we take to heart godly principles that can mold and shape our lives.
I was on a missionary trip in Nkwanta South in the OTI REGION and I had an experience that thought me this lesson again in a very fulfilling way. Sometimes we learn the hard way but this time round the lesson came in a fulfilling way
After finishing my work, I got on a motor bike that I had to personally ride to get to Nkwanta township and then continue to Likpe. Though I knew how to ride, this was the first time I was going to ride on such a road and not only that, for that length of time. To make matters more cumbersome for me, the motor bike was not mine.
So there I was with a motorbike that I was not too conversant with, and a very bad road to navigate. I therefore advised myself that the only way out was to ride slowly and cautiously. I remembered how myself and Reuben Adekplorvi had an accident on that stretch when we came for work the last time. Reuben is far better than me when it comes to many skills of life including riding a motor bike.
With all this in mind, I started my long journey to Likpe which was to last for about 7 hours with few stoppages along the way

I had not yet done 30 mins into my journey when a man begged me with a sign to stop. He was moving in opposite to my direction so I wondered why the request. He begged me to alight him at a particular location close to Nkwanta township
Looking at the nature of the road, helping someone was going to be a difficult thing, adding to the fact that the motorbike in question was new in my hands. With all these odds, I still decided to help but on one condition
I asked him whether he knew how to ride a bike and gave him an option. I told him my challenge and added that if he was willing to ride the bike we were good to go. Fortunately, he knew how to ride so I handed him the motorbike key as I sat at the back
It was a long and tedious journey. I thought his location was closed by but to my surprise, we were just going and going. He told me that if I had not helped him, he would have followed his friends to their destination before coming back to his.
I also took the opportunity to ask him about faith. He said he is a Christian and he fellowships with the Light House Church
When we finally arrived, I thanked him for helping me and he also thanked me for helping me. I did not ride up to 45 minutes before reaching Nkwanta, my first destination.

As I thought about all this, it dawned on me that what happened is a basic principle of life. The way to access help, is helping people. The more people you help to achieve their dreams, God will orchestrate things to work in your favor
Note that in my case it was reciprocal but most times, things may not work out that way. Most times the people you help won’t help you. But keep helping, you may never know and may never tell how God will cause men to be of help to you
Another thing also is that don’t think that the help you render should be in kind to you. Help comes in different shapes, forms and sizes
We all need help in one way or the other and how to access it is to keep helping
Remember that Jesus the helper of men also received Help -Jesus grew in stature and wisdom and had favor with GOD and MAN
