MORE THAN A GOLF CLUB.







This is a story of a golf trainer,it will illustrate the importance of thinking big and expecting big things from your Big God. This trainer was invited by  a wealthy and powerful  king to come and train him on how to play golf. He taught the king for a couple of days and when he was about to leave, the king summoned him to show his appreciation. He asked him, “What can I do to show you how much I appreciate your kind gesture….” “Don’t bother” the trainer replied. “You’ve been a wonderful host; I’ve enjoyed every bit of my stay here. Getting to train you itself is a priviledge I will forever appreciate.” But the king was adamant, He did not want the golfer to leave without receiving something special. When the golfer realised this, he told the king, ‘Okay…you can get me a golf club. He was asking for a stick used to hit golf balls! The king was happy! On his way back home, the golfer began to think and imagine the kind of golf club (stick) that the king was going to send him. Was it going to be gold plated? Would it have diamonds and jewelleries all over it? He was not sure. By the time he arrived home, there was a mail waiting for him. It was a certified mail from the king. He was wondering; is this my golf club(stick)? When he opened it, he was shocked: it was the deed (legal papers) to a 500-acre 18 hole golf club(a golf field). He almost passed out! The man was thinking about a golf club(a stick for hitting golf balls), but the king was thinking about a golf club (a large expanse of land where you can play golf). Just as the king exceeded the golfer’s expectation. He is the King of Kings and His dreams  are so much bigger than you can imagine. Remember, you cannot be the child of a great God and remain small all your life. Stretch yourself and reach out for something new. Think Big! Pray Big! Ask Big! Plan Big! and Talk Big! This world will hear your story!
