Risen From Grass To Glory Poem by Preston Mwiinga

Risen From Grass To Glory



He sat at the entrance of the school always taking note of who was entering that department at the University, failure to which he was going to be fired. Everyday during his shifts, he came early to be on duty. His profession was a guard work for one prominent security companies.
When others saw an ordinary security guard in him, One Lecturer saw a potential Network Security Professional.
And what did I see before I knew he was a potential Guru?
I saw a friend in him, when others said they could not mingle with the low class like the guards, the cleaners and others of the low grade. I still believed that out of him something great was going to be realised.
Through motivation and great talks he could smile once again. Lesson: You can be that great motivation to somebody. Just like the way Jesus Christ touched many like the woman who was bleeding for 12 yrs, you too can touch someone's heart and add a smile to that person lost in a number of things.
My surprise.............
We met in a class of ICT when confirmed he was now a student. New to things he could not understand through asking and trying he learned.
Lesson: No one was born an expert. Climbing a tree is from down to the top. Do not feel discouraged because you can not do it, keep trying and you will find yourself doing the unusual.
From Grass....
He raised from Grass to glory from that security officer I knew at the University to an ICT technician and Radian Stores. From cycling a bicycle to driving a company car. He was raised from Disappointments to Appointments.

Yours is glory.....
You do not have to be content with what you have except for your woman.
Where academic and working hard is concerned, keep pushing because the letters P.U.S.H have a proper meaning which is;
P » Push
U » Until
S » Something
H » Happens
