I just needed a little Push.

I just needed a little Push.

“It’s not your fault. I don’t blame you. Because you have a motor bike you think you can come here and tell us what to do.”

Mr. Man, what is my offence now? Can’t I ask for simple assistance?

Emeka was still in a confused state when I approached him.

What’s the matter? Is there any way I can help? I got out of my car and approached him.

I just came from an outreach right in this community. We have just finished, and I am on my way home. Upon getting to this junction, I realized that my bike just stopped without any notice. I did everything I knew, but there was no result.

It was at this point that I overheard this young man saying that all I needed to do was to give them some money, so they assist me. Honestly, I was surprised. They said it so loud so I could hear. I approached them and asked them to just push me a little. Because of the cold weather, my battery might be affected. They started throwing all the tantrums they could throw at me, and you got here.

Brother, no need to worry. I will help you, I assured him.

Without delay, he got on his bike, and in 30 seconds of push, the bike came alive.

I saw the disappointment on their faces and decided not to bother, but I took notice of their faces.

Emeka thanked me profusely and left, but what he said never left me: “I just needed a little push”.

All through my journey home, this phrase kept nudging me…. “I just needed a little push”.

In life, some people only need a little push to become who God wants them to be.

You just needed a little push, which may be you didn’t get. That’s why things have remained this way.

Is it possible that you need to give a brother or a sister a little push? Just a little push for him or her to actualize his or her dream?

As you continue this life, always think of who or what you can give to someone to push him a little forward.

Maybe people might have refused you little bits of push here and there… That’s okay for now. At least be thankful and don’t dwell in the past. Rather think of a little push you can give to someone so you don’t repeat the mistakes of those who couldn’t help you.

Do not be weary in doing good……Gal 6:9a
