Trophies of Life
Trophies of Life God gives to mankind the freedom to choose, a free will to do whatever they choose to do, to be whatever they choose to be. So God said to the children on earth: "You are free to choose whatever trophy of life you would like to choose. Choose well because whatever you choose it will be given to you!". So the children of earth choose each their own choice of trophies of life. Some choose to be famous scholar, some others choose to be captain of industry, some choose to be famous celebrity, some others choose to be king of realm. So each one of them picked up the trophies of life of their choosing and lined up before God to be approved. Each one of them believed that their trophies were the best ones for them. And God being a gentle God let the children of earth to have their choice of trophies of life. So God let them as their choosing and approved whatever trophies the children picked. One of the children however found a hidden trophy unlike the others that were picked by the other children. This trophy was hidden inside the earth. And the small boy found it by pure luck because he was not fast enough to grab the other trophies and hence started to dig around in desperation in the hope of finding a trophy. Upon unearthing this trophy an Angel appeared to the small boy and said: "This is no ordinary trophy. This is the most precious one of them all". The boy startled to see the angel then asked: "Why is this one so different?" The angel replied: "Because this is the trophy of everlasting life and everlasting power. Whoever choose this trophy and carry it to the end would be given eternal power and eternal life. "The boy was so excited upon hearing this and said immediately "I want this one!". The angel then said "Are you sure? This is no ordinary trophy". The small boy screamed "Yes of course I want this one" The angel said "Then pick it up". The small boy excitedly tried to pick up the trophy that he had just unearthed. But he failed, the trophy felt heavy, too heavy for him to pick it up and carry it to God. "Why is it so heavy" The boy asked. The angel then replied "Because it is no ordinary trophy". Being persistent the boy then instead of picking it up tried to push it with his own small body and it moved little by little. So the small boy pushed his trophy little by little towards the line-up to be approved by the almighty God but because the trophy was heavy he wasn't able to pick other trophies that he came to see along the way. The other children upon seeing the burden of this small boy started to mock him saying: Hey why do you pick that trophy? It doesn't look good at all. The trophy is smaller than ours and it must be very heavy by the way you push it all the way here, and he's only able to pick only that one trophy. Some other children said to the boy: Look at him and his small trophy. He's all toiling and bearing pains just to get it here. Poor boy he must have lost his mind to pick up that trophy. But still the small boy didn't pay attention to the other children remarks and continued to push it until it was his time to see God. God then said to the small boy: You have picked the best trophy of all. You are now in pains but will no longer be. The trophy that you chose is the trophy of life. You now will be given eternal power and eternal life because that is the trophy of your choosing. The boy was out of words. He knew his struggle was not in vain. He has found and chosen the best trophy of them all. Matthew 13:44 Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.
