RECEIVING MINISTRATION

If we are to learn, we have to get rid of the fear for being wrong.

Everyone can teach us however we do not learn from everybody. I guess that explains why we do not remember everything we were taught in school. The smartest of men is the most prudent of them. One with the ability to humbly take on a mantle handed over to them and even run faster no matter the weight and size it comes with.

 Receiving the mantle is not the issue for we all have hands stretched out to receive. The problem however is how to. Many times the ministration of feedback is done with many underlying factors; anger, personality, experience, attitude and many more. I actually know what it means to take your time writing a research proposal or even preparing a presentation just to get the most negative of feedback without the slightest salt pinch expression of gratitude.

So how do we position our spirits to be teachable and learn from anyone regardless?  Simple; HONOR.

Honor is that spell cast on oneself to humble you into knowing that a person went before you regardless of how much more intelligent and richer you have become overtime. It is the place that acknowledges how important it is to be ministered to and illuminates one’s eyes to the sight of what a blessing it is to be given feedback and take on the ministration in temperance amidst all the attitudes, moods and other disposition that it normally comes with.

 Everyone can teach you but you do not learn from everyone one. Position your spirit to be a teachable one that can learn pretty much everything from anyone. Receive the mantle with honor and humility.
