Shifting her attention from her academics to the world is all it took for the young Katlego’s performance to plummet from A’s all the way to C’s and D’s, news to the child who was accustomed to obtaining first class.
Katlego was acknowledged as a high-flyer one whom was well known for maintaining good grades but on progressing to Junior School, academia for her became the last thing to consider. Enthralled by the world and all it had to offer; secular music, movies and friends, all attention devoted to her school work was diverted to the enemy of the academe. Precious time would be whiled away on watching movies and rocking to the tunes of the world- but that bore no fruit whatsoever but instead brought unto her the inevitable; failure.
Her performance took a narrow dive to the pit of disappointment- an occurrence that caught the attention of her weary parents. Consequently, she obtained a low grade B for her JCE examination, well below her potential. Perturbed and utterly disturbed by the abrupt drop in the academics of their child, Mr. and Mrs. Ntutunyane brought their child to the Gospel of God’s Grace Ministries where on arrival was privileged to be part of the PPS initiative.
As she heard the Life-filled word of the prophet, “Divert your attention, Sacrifice your present for the sake of your future” she was brought down to absolute repentance and was propelled to change her ways for the sake of her future, hence she gave up all the bad- habits that derailed her. Surely, as an instruction given in righteousness and obeyed never fails, Katlego’s good academic performance was restored to the glory of God!
Throughout her first year in senior school, she was consistent in attaining 46 points and above. Even with a challenge here and there, the young lady still forged ahead as everyone with a great destiny is bound to be challenged. As she reached the finish line, she was surprised to have scooped 47 points with an improvement in subjects like Chemistry, Physics, Biology and Mathematics. God has done it for her and verily her obedience has yielded results of excellence.
