TOPIC: MAXIMIZING THE PHASES OF YOUR LIFE

TEXT : "To everything there us a season" (Ecclesiastes 3:1)

Life happens in phases. There is a pattern that God has ordained that our life should follow. There are three basic seasons, let's look at each of them:

1) The learning stage. When you are young your focus should be on exploring your talents, discovering God's purpose for your life, and sharpening your skill. For most of us this occurs during our early teens and into our twenties. The exact timing is not really important. What's important is knowing that there is a season where learning and growth are your primary objectives, and you shouldn't take short cuts to financial gains and miss the big picture of what God has in mind for you.

2)The earning phase. At this stage your profession, the things you've learned over the years and the skill  you've developed begin to impact your earning power. For many of us the season that this mostly occur is in our thirties, forties and well into our fifties. During this time you should endeavour to take care of your family and prepare for the most delicate season of your life--The old age!

3) The Returning phase. If you've lived your life to please God, you've worked hard and you've planned well you enter a phase that is most rewarding. This is when you experience the joy of giving back. More often than not this occurs in your late fifties well into your late seventies and beyond. But dont wait to become prosperous to become generous. Your desire to give and your level of income have little to do with each other. Some of the most generous people I know have little materially, whereas lots of People with plenty to give have no heart to give it. For example it was discovered that 80% of those who earn one million and above a year leave nothing to charity. This a bad legacy! Dr Martin Luther King gave us a word of wisdom when he said " Life most persistent and urgent question is ' what are you doing for others?'.
Life is indeed come in phases and men are in sizes know your status per time and strive to make the best of it.
