Going green means living with eternity in view in whatever one does. This is exactly what our Founding Fathers did. They lived their lives so well that they were able to divide everything by "FOREVER"; the world couldn't confuse or distract them. They actually had a single eye on the life that knows no end - they were looking for a city that had foundations, whose Builder and Maker is God. They were headed for heaven, to be at home with the Savior that bought them with the price of His blood. They actually matched the word "GREEN" with "ETERNITY" - the eternal past and the unending future - forever backward, and forever forward. They understood that the glory of heaven is eternal and so decided to fashion a glorious country for us.

This knowledge of a clean and a GREEN nation is the answer Nigeria has for her so many needs in life. It is the ticket out of poverty - the passport into prosperity. Because the color green does not mean acquisition but creativity, your true prosperity will come if you are not bent on acquiring wealth instead of creating wealth. As we celebrate 50th Independence Anniversary, my prayer for Nigeria and Nigerians is that they should learn today how to tap into the knowledge of God and release their creativity. To be truly great, Nigeria and indeed Nigerians must look GREEN as the country's color depicts - always ready at all times to divide everything they do by "FOREVER" to determine its real value or worth.
