My Counsel: BE CAREFUL HOW YOU TREAT PEOPLE
My dear friend, I want to remind you of a simple but powerful truth: how you treat people, especially those who seem “ordinary” or unimportant, can shape your future in ways you may not expect.
Life has a way of turning tables. The person you look down on today may be the one you need tomorrow. Never underestimate the value of kindness and respect. Even the Bible warns us in Proverbs 14:31 that mistreating others is an offense to God Himself. When you disregard people, thinking they have nothing to offer, you might be closing doors you don’t even know exist.
Success in life is not just about talent or hard work—it’s also about relationships. The way you treat a driver, a cleaner, a junior colleague, or even a stranger can determine whether favor or trouble finds you down the road. Stories abound of people who were helped by those they once treated well—and others who suffered because they despised the wrong person.
So, I urge you, choose humility. Choose kindness. Treat everyone with honor, regardless of their position. You never know whose hand God will use to bless you. Let your actions today sow seeds of goodness that will return as a harvest of favor in your life.
Sincerely,
Pst. Wale-Rich Oladunjoye
