You don’t speak err about your country
We should understand that we are all diaspora here on earth. And no matter what happens here, we do not have another planet to dwell in. Instead in all ramifications we will find a way to make it right and more livable place for us. No matter how bad things are, the earth remains our planet of habitation. No other planet will be comfortable for human habitation. There are beautiful planets all over and if we were to weigh the worth, they might be more valuable than the earth but they can’t accommodate humans.
“He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.” (Ecclesiastes chapter 3 verses 11).
It might be horrible, yet we have to accept it in good faith that we don’t have any other planet than this. It is God Almighty that made it so. We get to understand that whatever God made is beautiful. It pleases God to create the earth for man’s habitation. Why God decided to make the earth a dwelling place to mankind, is still a mystery. All we need to do is to appreciate the fact that the earth was given to humanity.
“The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fulness thereof, thou hast founded them.” (Psalm chapter 89 verses 11)
“For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.” (Isaiah chapter 45 verses 18)
You see that God did not create the earth in vain. God created the earth for a purpose. God is never a waster and He will never be one. We have to come to the full knowledge that God created and everything created by God is beautiful. You see, it does not matter how terrible the state of your nation might be, remember God said it is beautiful. If God said it is beautiful, who are we to condemn what God has not condemned? That is ridiculous on the part of the individual who is best at criticising the land of his or her native.
If God said it is beautiful, who are we to condemn what God has not condemned?
God did and is still doing everything on purpose. Nothing happens to Him accidentally. God knew where you can best fit in to fulfill purpose and that is why He made you and placed you in your country. Never you assume you wish you were born an American. If you do not appreciate the fate that God made and created you by purpose for purpose, you might miss it in the race of life.
The earth was at its perfect shape before the fall of man. The fall of man brought everything under question. The earth that used to be perfect is not perfect. Every nation in the earth is in the earth. If the earth is not experiencing its state of perfection, no nation is at its perfect state. Stop expecting much from the land of your nativity. You were created to bring change and innovations and change things around you.

Many people have left the country and any we engaged in a conversation, all they keep saying is how bad and messed up the country may seem to be, it is never apparent to speak err about it. You hear them say ‘That una country sef’ It is no longer his or her country. It is now our country. Yes it is our country and we will live to see the goodness of God. Whatever happens here, God will be glorified.
The fact remains that it is man that made the earth the way it is. And it is man that will get it fixed. This is one of the reasons you and I were created. Not can be among the foes that will be speaking err about their country but those that will stand the test of time to trust for a transformed nation where peace and justice will be the order of the day.
Let everyone be among the team that will be speaking good about their nation. It is in speaking good about our nation that we anticipate good things to begin to happen. You have to assist to help make the earth a better place for all and that will start with how much you love your nation. Irrespective of where you find yourself is never the reason you should speak err about your nation.
Conclusion:
You need to understand that it is a privilege you that found yourself in beautiful nation where you think everything is sufficient. You still have to understand that it was just a privilege from God Almighty. You can’t continue to speak err about your nation. Words are powerful. Speak good about your nation always and that will do more good.
