  Today service was awesome and powerful because is a graduation and thanksgiving service for the students of college of education Akwanga Nasarawa State Nigeria. The guest speaker spoke so powerful and inspiring. Telling the students as they are graduating going into the labour market, things will be difficult and tough for some people while other people will finds things very easy and at their planter of gold.  Not anyone that graduated from school will have a job , yes that's the truth. The pastor said some of them will never see themselves ever in life again after this graduation. Some of them will travel to a far and unknown place, some will achieve their dreams and other will battle from one thing to another. That's life and part of what has been designed for each of them.  The guest speaker urged them to be serious with their life after they graduated from school. He said they should find something worth doing with their lives, not totally depends on their certificates for survival.   He encouraged them to learn skills, handwork and even engage in entrepreneur and expand their life circles beyond their academic excellency only. He also said, in this life we all have our different ways of finishing or fulfilling our destinies. Don't compete your life with someone else's life.  Some of the graduates will lose focus on their dreams and visions due to pressure of life, frustration from family and friends due to their inability to afford some certain things or lack of jobs. And some of them will finds themselves in a different way or places they never thought of they will be someday. That's how the world and life is, most of the times people doesn't fulfilled or achieve exactly what they planned or wants to have in life. You could be planning your life and destinies and you can find yourself in a different place or direction.  The guest speaker told the students graduating no matter the circumstances, sufferings and challenges of life they should never give up. They should strive and stay focused and been purposely driven by their determination and one-day they will get to the top of where they want to have aquired.  After the thanksgiving and graduation service, we hag out outside the premises and gist with one another. We talked, laughed and wishes them success in their lives and every areas of their endeavors.  We went to a nearby empty hall and sat down with friends and family together, eating food and drinking drinks and celebrating the graduates by wishing them flying colors in their exams and more grace for achieving their heart desires as they enter into the labour market to finds favour both with God and people they might have come across in life.   It's indeed a good and joyful thing to see your friends and family celebrating you and wishing you success in life.  I could see the joy in the eyes of the students graduating when they saw us coming out of the car and saw the kind of food and drinks and gifts we brought for their thanksgiving service graduation today. They were so happy and excited.  In life, you might not have exactly and precisely what you want or prayed for, but with what you have be thankful and grateful to God Almighty in heaven. There are some people that doesn't even have that thing you have . You will think you are suffering or struggling with what you are passing through in life and thinks you will not amount to anything good in life. But when you see someone predicaments, pained, tears and struggles more than your own, you will appreciate God for your own.  We thought that difficulties and challenges we are facing and passing through in life, we are the only people passing through it. But no, we are not the only people passing through such challenges and difficult situations, a lot of people are going through the same challenges and difficulties and even worse than ours.   As you're graduating today, don't waste your certificates and misuse it in a wrong way. Make use of it well and in a good way that will not later cause you a problem in life.
