MY
TRANSCRIPT
I write from my personal experience while in the
university, hopefully I have a message to pass from my transcript. A transcript
is an inventory of courses taken and grades earned of a student alleged
throughout a course. I schooled at a university of technology, and all courses
studied in my school runs for a period of five year. I started fairly in my
first year and noticed the second year’s was so poor. After the second year’s
result, I sat myself down and said I can’t continue this way. I remembered in the
bible it was promised I am the head and not the tail, and that I shall be above
and not beneath. I asked GOD why I have been running on poor performances, and
He said through your beginning might be small, yet your latter end shall
greatly increase. I fasted and prayed and told GOD I wanted my results
henceforth to show forth his glory, because a fair and poor result doesn’t show
forth GOD’s glory. He said in his words I am for signs and wonders.
However, before fasting and praying I observed my friends in the
department also have been running on a poor performance; I told them it will be
better we go pray about these poor performances of ours, but they all said they
don’t think it’s about praying and fasting, but about putting in more effort. Hmh!
I did my part as a friend telling them what I observed. After my fasting and
prayers, I managed my time more wisely and read persistently and consistently.
Before, I read but don’t read consistently. And I use to be confident in what I
read, expecting good grades; but at the end it will be poor or fair. The third
year, after the exam I acknowledged GOD as my helper and told him I am not
leaning on my understanding, despite all I have written. Lo and behold, when
the result was out I performed excellently; my friend’s result was still poor.
They queried me, how come your result is excellent? I reminded them, I once
told you all we need to go pray about these poor performances of ours. Some
yielded afterwards by praying and their results also changed the next year,
while those that refused keep running on a poor form of performance. I had
excellent results from my third year to my fifth year which was my final year.
And among the few best in my department, I was numbered. There are several
lessons here from my transcript. It is always good to examine yourself. Always
good to ask GOD in any situation you are. He said ask and it shall be given
unto you, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you.
Always be positive no matter how hard your circumstances; what you say with
your mouth, creates what you will see. You must do your own part before GOD can
help you. A saying says heaven helps those who help themselves. Also, always
acknowledge GOD in all things and lean not on your own understanding. Though
your beginning maybe small, but your latter end shall greatly increase. Say and
declare the promises of GOD in his words. His words never fade. It is well with
us all!!!!
