Don't be too spiritual
Happy wonderful Sunday to you all, I hope you all had a heavenly filled service? I am sure the answer is a yes. I have always been thinking about this topic for a long time now but it keeps slipping my mind fortunately for me today, I remembered and decide to write about it. I wouldn't want anyone to get me wrong on this topic, just follow me gradually and you will understand all I am about to say.
There is room for physical and there's also room for spiritual, don't let us mix the both of them together. It's good to be spiritually minded but don't overdo it, too much of everything is actually very bad cos one will eventually start walking out of it.
***For instance, Mr A has a very serious headache, and instead of him to go to the hospital to meet the doctor and ask for whatever drug he can use but he chose to keep praying to God. I am not saying God can't do it and I am not trying to underestimate God but the necessary duties of man should be done before God can help one. Sorry to say, the prayer might not work cos the drug is there for you to use and before you know it, it will relieve your pain and you are fine.***
So many cases of humans who died as a result of refusing to use drugs and choosing to pray. I heard the story of a particular man who was seriously sick and on the verge of about to die. His wife wanted to take him to the hospital or to a nearby chemist to get drugs for him but he refused. He said to his wife that she doesn't have faith in God and why will he doubt the power of prayer. He said he is not going anywhere nor using any drugs but he will keep praying to God and he will answer him.
He prayed truly but later kicked the bucket. He only left his wife to suffer and be a widow, he died and left children behind for the wife without any means of taking care of them. Could you believe this man died of malaria? His wife said his body will be slightly okay and warm during the day but can't really eat while he will feel cold at the night. All these are signs of someone that has malaria, it can be treated with just a drug from a chemist but he chose to pray when God didn't show him anything to pray about.
God will not come down to do our duty for us, it's our duty to be treated by doctors or get drugs to use when we fall sick, after getting those drugs or seeing doctors, then we can also pray to it but only praying without God's direction is a waste of prayer. Yes, I believe God can heal you and make you whole but not when you have failed to do your part.
Many people see everything that is supposed to be done physically to be spiritual. For example, a lady that doesn't know how to cook and doesn't know how to take care of the house or isn't a wife's material but she keeps praying for a good husband. Do you think God will answer such a prayer? Of course, it's a big NO because God will never want to punish a good man to marry such a lady. All the lady needs to do is to work on herself to be a better person before God can answer her prayer. Everything isn't spiritual at all, we need to apply physical exercise to some things.
NB: I didn't underestimate the power of prayer nor do I say God can't do and undo. He can but some things are expected to be done first before we can now think of talking to God.
Thanks for reading, I really do appreciate your effort and time.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
What I decode from the cat and the rat today
This will be a quick one for tonight, not because I am lazy to type nor lack inspiration but because I went to watch my club football match which end in penalties. When we thought all hope have been lost, that was when my keeper saved the ball to balance the penalty shootout, so people were happy and as they were celebrating, someone hit me in the eye, it was painful but had to endure it, it has caused me a headache now, so I will have to sleep early this night. I am sorry for this quick one, but let's begin;
I was washing my clothes this morning when I saw my neighbour's cat that bounced on a rat, the cat caught it and carried it straightway to the top roof to eat it. Immediately after I saw this, something struck my mind and I said *****" and the mother of the rat will be expecting the rat to come back home after strolling for the day ".***** My brother knew I will surely use that to make up my article, so I laughed and eventually that's what I am presently doing now.
What I said might be funny but it's the real fact when we bring it to the real-life experience. Many woke up today with the mindset of returning home after the day's work but unfortunately for them, they couldn't reach home due to one thing or the other. Truly, the rat came outside to get what to eat but it met what ate him.
There's a yoruba prayer that says *****" olorun ma je ki a pade ohun ti o je wa " meaning we have gone out to look for what to eat but lord, don't let us meet what will eat us.*****
It's a very powerful prayer that requires a powerful amen. The rat met what ate him on the way and couldn't return home. Many of us must have watched it in a movie or must have heard that someone that went out in the morning to his workplace but didn't return in the night because he has an accident and died or he was killed or felt sick and landed in the hospital or was even kidnapped.
Before his parent will know, they must have been very worried that what has happened to their child, they will even pray for his safety without knowing that such a person has died. The mom of that rat must have been expecting the rat to come back in the afternoon or night but now she can't see the rat cos he has been killed by the cat.
That's how life is, what happens among the animals is what also happens among humans too. We should always pray very well before we go out of our house, we should pray for protection over us and family cos outside there is very dangerous. What we plan is not always the expected result, God's plan is the best and so we should always talk to him about our daily journey.
A short prayer before I round this up;
May God always protect us and keep us safe
May God always be our protector in all our dealings
May God always direct our steps and not let us walk on a dangerous path
May God be our defender always
May God not allow us to walk whenever the road is hungry to suck blood.
AMEN.
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate your effort. The headache is really killing me right now, I have to go and rest now.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
So I am going to die
NB: if you don't like to read about death, this article is not for you so please don't go further to read it.
There was one time that death article was very rampant here on read.cash, people were really terrified and were really scared. I kept laughing to myself asking why is everyone scared? For real, I don't know of when I was small, I might have been scared of death then or don't even know what it really means cos I was small but now that I have grown and know what it means to have someone die, I can't be scared.
I am only saying this cos I have seen the whole life entirely ( see finish ) and I can see there's nothing there to attach so much attention to at all. I am not saying life isn't worth living but it shouldn't be given that much attention cos life is not worth it at all.
I don't know why this thought about death came to me this night, I was just in the toilet when it came to me suddenly and I am like, what? Why this thought but I understand it's bound to happen once in a while.
When such thought comes to you, don't rebuke it, it's a normal thing and moreover, it will only call your attention to some things that you aren't doing well and remind you of that heavenly home, that paradise you have always anticipated and dreamt of. It directs your step to the right path cos you wouldn't want to land in that hell that they have been saying.
Don't be scared of the title of the article, I am neither sick nor about to die. I am just trying to remind you that a time will come when I will cease to live and leave this earth. The same goes thus for you also, you will definitely die one day and so for that, prepare your mind.
What matters is the legacy that you left behind, the kind of life you live while on earth, and your good deeds and work will be talked about. Your works will be the gist of the town and will be the song in the mouth of everyone. If it's a bad legacy you left behind, it's the same thing that will happen to you just that your children might be left alone to do all the burial rites with just a few members of the family, which will show how wicked you are while on earth.
But if it's a good legacy you have left behind, people will be happy to take part in the burial rites. Like the belief of my people here that, you also will be happy wherever you are in heaven that people are showing you love while you are no longer living.
All the messages of this article still brought down to the fact that you and I will die one day, no one is going to live forever and won't die. Don't get scared when someone tells you that you will die, of course, you will it only depends on the time. Just pray God doesn't make it an early one, that's all. I am not scared of death, I am only scared of the time it might be cos I don't know if it's early or a late one but I believe I will live to fulfil my purpose on earth before evacuating the earth.
I will die and you will also die.
Thanks for reading, I do appreciate it.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Goal getter
"Every dog has its day but not every dog has its dogma, dogma is a belief that you can do something even when the odds are against you"
A wise ma said a goal-getter is not just a person with a goal, but rather one that makes use of every opportunity.
I believe that everyone has the potential to achieve greatness, it's just that some of us get frustrated before achieving them before encountering stumbling blocks. Be great in everything you do and have faith in yourself because the first step to winning is having the intention to win.
Nowadays, we see a lot of people that didn't reach their goals, just because they never pay attention to the obstacles they may face on the way.
When you have goals in your life, you will have to be focused on your main goal, there will be a time when you feel like it's impossible to achieve this goal but don't give up because we must use every last opportunity to achieve our goals today.
There are so many different stories and connections we share with the world. The best part about the story is the life lesson we get from it, this can be applied in real life to achieve great success.
The best way to know about your goal is to write down your own goals and motivate yourself with them. Nobody is going to achieve your dream other than yourself, you should put much effort into a goal you want to achieve as much as possible.
Two steps you can take while doing a study or in your daily routine would be to read a book or watch a movie, with these two things I bet your day would consist of positivity and the result would be your success.
**Wise thoughts**: The journey is only going to be easy if you are going to work hard for it, otherwise it's going to be tough.
A goal getter is a person who can see things in a different way to get where they want to be, understanding that their goals are very important.
You cannot achieve success without setting goals for yourself, it will make you too distracted to be able to move forward.
With goals the possibilities are endless, you will be able to achieve what you want to do and become someone who wants to start from nothing and become a winner in life.
One of the goals, that you should seek to achieve this year is to become better.
Don't look back on your life and say I wish, I guess or I should have.
It is a goal that can only be met through action.
We must always keep in mind that every opportunity comes with a price, you show me someone who dares to chase their dreams and I will show you someone prepared to pay the price. Your dreams are waiting for you. Find them and make them real.
If you think you are motivated and ready for your shift in life, then read this;
Don't give up on your goal cos you never know when your day will come, stay focused and work hard for what's yours
Be a goal getter, a goal-getter is the only person who can turn an ordinary idea into reality
A runaway slave had one dream to be free, he kept on running until he got his freedom
Don't say I have no education or I am not smart enough cos if you have a goal and you are ready to work hard for it then nothing can stop you from achieving it.
Everyone got their purpose in life and their own goals, the only thing that matters is that goals are achieved if we put in the effort, we can always achieve what we want in life.
Everyone has some sort of goal in mind such as achieving a certain level of success, becoming famous or famous, getting a better job and so on, these goals matter because they keep us going, they keep us moving forward and motivated to do good work every day.
Though it may be difficult at some point to achieve these goals and reach our set standards, never should it be difficult to get motivated to do what we love and what matters to us the most. You are your motivation, the motivation to become better each day and give out the best versions of ourselves.
With every goal comes motivation and every motivation leads to success.
**Goal getters**
Our goals in this life matter, a goal-getter always make good use of every opportunity they see. One thing that will help you and your goals is to focus on the result and not get caught up with the distractions on the way.
Don't look down on any opportunity because you can never know what can happen especially when God is behind it
But don't rush your way through success, remember that every race has a few laps
Success takes time, with patience and perseverance you will achieve all your goals without fail. Take it easy, be calm and focused, and then watch it come together like magic.
Wake up with a smile, the day a new door will open for you, you never know what you'll find on the other side. Every goal that you set in this life is aimed at making your life better, they even make your work easier and everything you do in life is something that every goal you go after could benefit from.
Goal getters – It's always good to touch base with yourself and set some things in place. We can be a bit more organized by having a goal-setting sheet. Make sure you share this with your friends as well.
Thanks for reading, I hope you are blessed with this one, I do appreciate your effort in reading this.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
A very big thank you @Ellawrites for the sponsorship, I am very happy to see the notification. I do appreciate, thanks dear🤗
I am pregnant
Yes, you read that right, I am pregnant and so it is for every other guy out there. Oh, most of you all know me to be a guy and were surprised to see me say I am pregnant, lols. What has technology not made easy? A guy can decide to help his wife with pregnancy and there will be a way where he will be the one to carry the baby while the wife is free from carrying the pregnancy, I have heard cases like that and I know it is possible in the medical world.
Well, before you start having some kind of thought about me, let me clear myself up😅😅😅. Go back to the first paragraph and you will see that I said the pregnancy is the same for every other guy out there, does that mean we are all pregnant? Yes, we all are pregnant with a particular word in us.
What I meant by being pregnant;
As we all know that is rare for a lady to walk up to a guy and ask a guy out. It's a strong taboo here in my place, people will see such a lady as a cheap one whereas it's wrong. I have seen cases where the lady walks up to the guy and profess her life, to shock you with their story, they are happily married with children. I saw a video of a white lady, someone asked her a question "Has she ever walked up to a guy and professed her life", she said yes and the person asked who and she said her husband. That's to tell you nothing is wrong with a lady doing that but here in my country, we see it as a wrong practice and think the lady is cheap and is very wrong.
So, a guy must walk up to a lady and profess his love. The strong feeling he must have for the lady and the kind of words he will have to compose to woo the lady must have been living in the stomach of the guy, all these make him pregnant including me as a guy.
For those that are patient enough to study so well about the lady, it will take them weeks or months to finally give birth to the word by saying it to the lady. And for those who are very sure about the lady, it might take them less than a month to finally give birth to their word. And for those that aren't patient at all, they give birth to theirs in a few days.
Do you how long some might have to keep those words, rehearse them, and learn them, just because of the lady they said they will meet in the future. You might have heard guys saying, if I finally meet my partner, I will do this, I will do that, I will put my lines in order to be able to convince her that I truly love her, blah blah blah. The words are being formed like a foetus in the stomach of a lady, it is the day he professed it out that he give birth to the pregnancy.
I am still patiently waiting for that right person to profess my love to, she is still in one corner having fun but I know very soon, we will meet and talk about it so for now, I am still pregnant and I don't think I will be entering the labour room anytime soon since I haven't found her.
As a guy out there, are you still pregnant or you have delivered your word.
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate it. Help thumb up 👍if you like what you read.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰
What I thought of but was wrong
Don't mind what I am about to write as I have written above that I am very wrong so just bear with me. The news that was passed across about the strike in all federal schools is what has been making me think otherwise. I can say I am mentally depressed cos I have thought of everything back and forth, I looked at how my future is going to be but one thing assures me that tomorrow is going to be better.
Don't be surprised if it's this same me that published an article yesterday about looking up to Christ and you will live and is about to write this beautiful nonsense. I clearly do understand and practise what I do write, this is just a mere thought that anyone can think of. Moreover, I am human and I am liable to think that way.
Have u ever thought of why God created this world like this? He should have just created us with a good heart from the beginning without any plan to be destroyed by the devil. The devil shouldn't have been at the beginning of the setting, he is God, and he can do it but why did he make it happen 😭😭😭😭. He should have created us with zero worries about anything, nothing like negative or bad shouldn't have existed from the beginning.
He should have created us and let the setting of the garden of Eden remain like it was before the serpent came through. If there was not anything like sin, this world would have been a better place for us all. He is God, he can do it but why has he allowed all these to happen?
I am not saying God is wicked but I thought it should have been better humanly. But who am I to decide for God, I am just dust off the ground and can't even question cos he is an unquestionable God.
This wicked world has made everyone feels the need to question God, which is what I am doing presently. The world should have been the paradise we all are waiting for, the paradise we all are trying our effort to get there. There shouldn't have been hellfire at all if we all are being created with good hearts and loving hearts. I am only seeing all that's happening as suffering, I see it as if God just want to punish us for creating us.
Why did he create us in the first place when he knows we all are going to suffer like this? Why has he created us to go through pain, sorrow, bitterness, sadness, and trouble when he can just allow us to be happy forever without needing to undergo all that. Humanly speaking, I will say it's unfair of God and it shouldn't be so.
To end this, I will like to tell everyone that all I have written are from the carnal mind, mind my words when I said humanly speaking. All these thoughts are what every other human can think after having a deep thought due to too much thinking or a bad event happening all. Currently, my state of mind is far from normal but I promise to be fine 😢😢, I am fine and thank you in advance.
God never make mistakes in creating this world, there's a purpose for why it is like this and that's beyond human comprehension, that's why he is called God. Clear off any dirty mind coming through you and pray that everything is fine.
Thanks for reading, bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Christian:Look and live
Happy wonderful Monday to us all, I hope you all went to church yesterday? Church was great from my side here and I am sure it went well from your side too. Did you remember to pray for yourselves, your family and your friends? If so, that's good of you as a Christian. Let's move to the title of the article, this is what was preached in yesterday's sermon, let's begin;
Remember the story of the Israelites in Numbers 21 vs 1-9, God delivered them from the hand of the enemies and was in a wilderness and God was feeding them with bread and water. They are for this for days and they got tired of eating it, so they murmur into Moses' ear and God's ear. God got annoyed with them and punished them by sending serpents to bite them. It killed them over the night and they were all scared of their life and repented of their sin. They went to meet Moses and told him to tell God that he should forgive them and send away the serpent. Moses prayed and God answered them and told Moses to make a fiery serpent of brass and hang it on a pole so that when they are bitten by a serpent, they will look at it and they will live. This they did and they were saved.
The brass serpent represents Jesus Christ, when you look to Christ, there's assurance that you will live.
John 3 vs 14 says ***" KJV:And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:"*** the serpent represents Jesus in the new testament. No matter what we are passing through, we shouldn't look elsewhere for help cos no one can help us if not God. Every other gods are nothing but just a mere statue that can't talk nor see, they can't smell nor feel anything.
When we look up to God, there are a lot of benefits waiting for us which include;
**Glorification**; there is no shame for those who steadily look at Jesus. They will always be lifted and glorified.
**Enlightenment**; the light of life will continue to glow in their life and environment.
**Life**; when you look up to Christ, he will give you life and hope for living.
**Assistant**; God will always show up as an assistant for you whenever you need his help, he has never failed and will never fail.
For those looking elsewhere for help from pastors, Alfas, herbalists and so on, I can boldly tell you that there's no help from them. They can't help you but add to your problem. Run to God whenever you feel the need to talk to someone or you are in trouble and need help. Even when all things are straight for you, look up to Jesus and you will live forevermore.
Don't look elsewhere but unto Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith.
Thank you for reading and God bless us all.
Bye for now🥰🥰🥰.
A very big thank you to @Talecharm. It really mean a lot to me, God bless you greatly. I love you 🥰🥰🥰
Rainy day: what should I do?
The rain started early this morning around 5:45 am, I was still In bed sleeping when it started, so I had to position myself again on my bed and started another round of sleep but the cold didn't allow me to enjoy it cos I wasn't with my sweater. So I stood up to get cover clothes and get on the bed again and before I knew it, I was not conscious of my surroundings again.
I woke up again at exactly 6:45 am, that's an hour of sleep, it was cool cos it was cold on the bed. I stood up and quickly do my morning routine and took good care of my dad and after that, I fetched some water for us to do some laundry and washing of plates and all other things that water is being used for. It was still raining heavily and the cold was getting intense so I had to get my sweater and put it on.
Not too long after that, I saw my neighbour watching a movie on his phone so I decided to watch it with him, the movie was funny and I enjoyed watching it. After doing that I went to eat my jollof rice, which was well prepared by the person helping my mom cook ( in case you don't know, my mom sells food in a school ). Jollof rice and spaghetti with some assorted meat were well served and eaten, you can say I love food cos I can hear someone screaming food monger from behind the readers 😅😅😅.
It was after eating that I slept for like 3 hours, I woke up when my mom came back from work. Immediately she entered, she entered the kitchen to cook for my dad and us. I had to run an errand for her like I went to grind pepper, went to buy fish and some other food items but before you know it, the food is already ready, bread and egg and the fish soup for the night 😋😋😋, enjoyment at its peak.
Some are expecting me to write weather for two (a situation where you will be with your partner and having some romantic moment together and enjoying some kind of movie and all ), but that can only apply to someone who is in a relationship, not a lonely guy like me 😅😅😅.
I will call it weather for food cos food is what makes me happy presently cos relationships did not work for me. I want to look for money first and every other thing will be added unto me 😅.
I only wish to write about how I spent my day today, I don't know if it's writer's block that's disturbing me or I just feel lazy about writing anything. The weather makes me lazy and feels like sleeping all through the day. I know my day was boring but I love it like that.
Thanks for reading my today's rant, I do appreciate it.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Can I get one more chance?
I know what is going through your mind right now, you think I am about to talk about the lady that dumps me and serves me breakfast right? And I am trying to ask her to give me another chance, lols. That's not the case here, let me make this a quick one for us all and explain what I mean by the title.
The title has to be me having luck or by chance having a one on one interview with my creator ( GOD ) and asking him for my heart panting. It was this night I had a deep thought about footballers and their salary or rich people entirely.
I have always said it and I pray God makes it possible for me, I want a situation where I would be strongly rich and comfortable with a lot of wealth, not necessarily have fame or become a superstar but I should be rich is what I prayed for, my children will end up to be footballers. The Money those players are making per week is much more than the salary of many presidents of some countries.
Their lifestyles are just simple with money entering their account weekly, what a grace. If I have the chance to meet God and talk to him, I will plead for another chance to let me come from this same family that I am from but we should be rich cos I want a soft life, please. I don't want a stress-filled life, I am not made for that. You don't have to hiss at my back for what I am wishing for, it's what I want and you have to make your wishes too, don't tell me to go look for work and face my hustle.
I am familiar with advice like this so, please save it for another day. I really wish God can make it come through. It's never too late cos I believe God will make me rich for my children and that's why I am trying my possible best to be the best I can be for them. I don't want to go through stress all my entire life. I want a soft life God, please answer my heart panting.
No one will love to suffer or go through stress, we all want that stress-free life, where everything is gotten at ease, that's the life everyone wants. So don't judge me when I say I want one more chance, you also want it deep down in your heart.
God, answer my heart panting and I will be forever grateful to you🙏🙏🙏.
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate your time.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
The idea of a poor man
I was in church yesterday when this topic pop up, it was a deliverance hour time ( prayer session ) when the prayer point was raised ***"Wherever my voice needs to be heard but I am unable to speak there, God, please help speak on my behalf"***, that was when the minister said if you don't have money, there is no way your idea will be look into for consideration nor listened to.
For instance;
In a polygamous house of different wives and the father dies after having seven children. Let's say the first child is poor but the children of other wives were rich. In some cultures, before anything can be carried out during the burial of their father, the firstborn must be present throughout all the arrangements. But in this case, the other children didn't wait for their elder brother instead they make money available for the burial and everything was done within a short time.
They all concluded that after all, he has nothing to offer than an idea on how to go about it and that money has already replaced the idea needed so what need does he has to do?
And what they have said seems to have an iota of sense but it's wrong. Like what we all know and have heard that money answereth all things, it's money that solves everyone's problem now, I don't think anything else can do so. No wonder, even if you ask a 4 years old child what he/ she needs, the answer will be MONEY.
Ideas are importantly needed in every area of life, same as money. The idea can only stand when there's money to sponsor it. A poor man can have a great idea better than a rich man but because the man is poor, his idea will be rendered useless. Pareventure, the rich man's idea got them into trouble, they won't see it as a bad one because money is there to cover up for it.
They said " what money fails to do will be buried underground " meaning it's very rare to see what money cannot do. There was this comedian who said that since we all say money can't buy happiness, they should please give him money cos money can buy his happiness. That's to show you the length at which money can go in solving problems.
The world we live in no longer needs your idea on the table instead they need your money cos they believe your money will go far in providing solutions to what they need. The idea of a poor man is now like a filthy rag in the presence of the rich man.
All I can say now is that we all should try and make sure we have this money ( legally and not in a dubious way ), we should make sure we make good use of every good opportunity that we come across cos people can only be your friend or relate with you when you have money but if you don't have, no special recognition for you.
Understand me clearly, I am not making it compulsory for you to find money where there isn't money, don't say that I have said money answereth all things and because of that you went ahead to get money illegally or get yourself involved in money ritual, you will surely face the consequences when the time comes. I am just saying money is good when you have it and make sure you grab every opportunity cos no one will like to be a friend to a poor person that can't offer any help.
Money is the root of all evils but money is good when you have it legally.
Thanks for reading, I hope you can grab one or two things from what I have said.
Byee for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Children will always be children
This topic struck my mind when I saw the way the children in my house were dressing up for the just-concluded Eid- Mubarak yesterday. You need to see the way they were doing after putting on their fine clothes and shoes. They were busy doing a fashion parade all around the houses, showcasing their beauty and fine dress.
All these memories make me remember when I was small too, any feast or festive period like this, I must surely showcase my fine dress to my mate and neighbours. From what I can remember and what my mom and dad told me, I do put on that fine dress till night and even use it to sleep till the next day.
I must have bedwet and urinated on it the night before but I will still cry that I want to put it on again. I was told if they don't want to allow me to put it on, I will begin to cry and won't eat until they allow me. That's how children can be so it's not only me, now that I remember that I did all these, I was just laughing cos I see no sense in it as I have grown but then it means a lot to me. All these childish behaviours were done with an innocent mind and no strong attached to them.
Back to my neighbours, let's assume they were not given their clothes to wear on time and they are seeing on their fellow mate bodies, they will start crying and disturbing their mom and dad, they will not be happy about it until they also put on their own fine dress. This I have done many times because I see my friends put on fine clothes with new singlets and pants on a festive day😅😅😅😅. No matter what, children will always be children.
I can remember vividly that a night before every festive period, I barely sleep through the night because all my mind and focus will be on my fine clothes, fine shoes, fine wristwatch and so on. All these thoughts won't allow me to sleep throughout the night, it will look as if there shouldn't be a night in between the day. I will give deep thought to how fit the dress will be on my body, the kind of moves I will practise will look as if I am going for a fashion week, Lols.
It's until later in the night that I will feel tired and stressed up cos of the busy day that I make myself pass through. I remember whenever I buy new things, be it clothes, wristwatches, shoes, toys etc, I won't sleep that day cos that thing will be on my mind to wear or use all through the night.
I remember when I was gifted a water toy gun, my mom has to keep it away from me for months before I could use it again. I was so fun of the toy gun that I sleep with it and woke up with it beside me every night. That's how funny small children can be.
I know after you read all that I have written, you will surely remember those weird attitudes of yours too when you were small. I know you also did a lot of things that you will laugh at when you remember when you were small, they are not what to be ashamed of but things to make you happy and glad that you also did it.
Day in, day out, children will always be children.
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate your effort in doing so.
Bye for now🥰🥰🥰.
Reason for Eid-mubarak
Eid Mubarak is an Arabic term which means blesses feast or festival. It was well accepted by different tribes since they all believe that Islam generally emanated from the Arabians and that their language is the generally accepted one to communicate in Islam and that's why their Quran is written in Arabic.
That aside, this Eid- Mubarak is generally being used to greet each other by the Muslims and the non-Muslims for the feast. It's been celebrated immediately after observing a complete 30 days of fasting and prayer. It's that time many of them think they should be holy and be right with God and that's so painful.
It's a holy month for all of them, they are always clean and blameless during the time the fasting is ongoing but it's so painful that it only ends there when the fasting ends. It was supposed to be the month when they will forsake their evil ways and return to God wholeheartedly to be a true disciple of God.
What I found painful;
Many have been expecting the fasting to end for long because they were eager to go back to their sinful ways. The fasting was like bondage for them, they couldn't resist it but prayed for it to be observed on time.
As I typed now, I am presently being disturbed in my street by these young youths ( upcoming thugs and the full-grown thugs ), many of them also observe this concluded fasting and were truthful about it but they ended it with smoking and drinking all kinds of harmful drinks. That aside, what of those that aren't even thugs but married men and women who ended it with their adultery behaviour. Many of them ended it in the bar or club where they take alcohol and puffed hemp that they didn't do during fasting.
They only see fasting as a custom but not as a rite that should be done wholeheartedly. To my understanding, they just nullify all their fast with all their bad attitude and bad ways cos it has no meaning to me after all they had done.
In conclusion;
It doesn't only apply to the Muslims but to all the Christian too, we always forget the reason behind every season which is wrong. We shouldn't forget the purpose of something or why it was created or come into existence or else, we will only lose its value which shouldn't be so. We shouldn't just do things without knowing the reason behind them because many do and lead them astray. Having a full understanding of what we are doing is very good and expected of us.
I hope we all understood all that I have written above, I pray the grace to always do according to God's will, will be bestowed to us all in Jesus' name.
Thanks for reading, I really appreciate every one of us. Happy Eid- Mubarak to all my Muslim brothers and sisters all over the world, I pray we will all live to witness more on earth.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
April was nothing to regret about
As I wrote in my article titled "April Full", I wrote about how April will be a blessing and full of good things, here is the link if you want to read about it. It was positive as expected to some extent even though the earnings were so low because of rusty truancy on my articles. https://read.cash/@Gaftekloriginal/april-full-56ff89da
Nothing to regret about it cos I stand to remain positive about April. It thought me to have patience, stay consistent and never give up so easily and that's part of my plan this new month too. I have never regretted any month and this won't be my first.
Like it was said in church today that the month of May stands for GRACE. It's the fifth month of the year and GRACE is a five-letter word too, can you see what I am seeing? I am sure you saw that.
This new month will bring you unmerited favour and blessing in all ramifications of life that you need it. Expect greater things in this new month, don't limit yourself to what you can do or to what you can achieve.
Stay positive all through and you will see things falling in line for your good. Let's say a short prayer before I round this up;
MAY will bring us blessings
MAY will bring us unmerited favour
MAY will bring to us everlasting joy
MAY will bring to us new levels
MAY will bring us better opportunities ( including job and contract)
MAY will bring to us the fruit of the womb ( for those seeking God's face for pregnancy )
MAY will bring to us enlargement in our coast
AMEN....
I believe all these prayers have been answered and so you also should you believe that it is, don't doubt it so that it can come to pass.
A happy new month to all my read.cash mate. I am already a 9-month user on this beautiful platform today, it hasn't been an easy journey so far, I thank God and I thank you all for your constant support towards me. God bless us all, AMEN.
Thanks for reading, bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
I think I am a tree
I have written articles about love, I have also given relationship advice to the point that people think I am in a relationship but NO, I am not in any, lols.
I have once written that love isn't my thing once in my article and that's exactly what it is😅. All these have made me think I AM A TREE. I know it's funny but it's the real truth. Love is sweet when you are with the right person or when you find the right person. You wouldn't need to put in so much energy for it to work out, you only put in a small effort and before you know it, boom already.
I am someone that picks every little attention as a go-ahead for me, don't mind me, that's the way I am, I fall easily😅😅😅. The fact that I fall easily doesn't make me so vulnerable, I know what I have fallen for, tested and trusted 😅. I must have noticed we-vibe, study her so well and all before thinking of falling at all.
I get so attached easily too, I don't know why but I am currently working on it. I trust easily with just a single action done to me so I must have thought everything is alright and will be fine if I were with this person but is the other way around.
Every single lady I have met will say they are in a relationship and if they aren't, they will give the excuse of I am this and that but my God, am I a tree? Why is it that every one of them is already in a relationship with someone. I want to meet a single person too so we can start from somewhere and enjoy every romantic moment too.
Well, I don't need anyone to tell me to wait for the right person or be patient cos I know myself that the right person will come at the right time. It's just the human flesh that is in action and that's why all these thoughts are coming through. It's normal at my age to happen and that's why I am not too bothered about it, body and system must react but how I react back is what matters.
And if you are here crushing on me, tell me now before it's too late ooo😅😅😅, don't let it be when I don't have time again that you will start chasing me around to tell me how you feel, I won't answer ooo. The best time is now and now is the best time.
I think I am a tree truly 🤔🤔🤔.
A little digression before I conclude
Hello Mr Rusty @TheRandomRewarder why have you left me since yesterday? I was scared when I didn't see your footstep near my door all through yesterday, I hope you are good and doing great. Don't forget to branch my side today while visiting others, I am your Gee, remember this. Yours faithfully.

Thanks for reading, I really appreciate you all.

Give her (him) a call today
Until this morning I couldn't think of a single topic to write about and when I finally did, I got two but to write on them become a problem. The particular reason why I couldn't was that I wasn't too myself that yesterday and I washed too so I was so tired.
What I am about to write looks like relationship advice but ask me, am I in a relationship? Of course, yes but a friendship relationship 😅😅😅, I shocked you right? You expected the dating relationship to be the one I will talk about but it wasn't, lols.
This advice goes for those in a dating relationship and those in a friendship relationship or any kind of relationship you can think of so far it involves caring for someone. I don't know if it's only me or it's the same everywhere, we tend to miss someone we said we love if we didn't talk to them for a day, that happened yesterday. I have someone I am very close to now, she is really my good friend and I don't think I can do without her. She created a friendly atmosphere so well that I couldn't resist it, all I see was a green light all the time, she is more than a friend.
I am sure she will read this, let me tell her again that I LOVE HER 🥰. She will be smiling on seeing this, I want your smile every time dear but repeat what you did yesterday again😅, you hear me right? Good of you good girl.
She has visited me twice this week to greet me and check up on me, that's lovely of her. So yesterday happens to be a busy day for me but despite that, I tried to call her but she didn't pick up. After some hours, I tried again and she picked up but told me that I should call her later, after some hours I called again but she said later in the evening. I waited for her call but she didn't call so I was angry and I decided that I won't call her if she doesn't call.
So this morning, the thought of calling her came to my mind again but I said No cos what she did pain me, she should have just told me she is busy with something or she doesn't want to talk to me and I will understand but she didn't, all these I thought and decide not to call her. My mind couldn't take it after a long time of pondering it, so I called her and she started telling me she was sorry about yesterday after asking why she behaved like that.
She said she doesn't want to talk to anyone yesterday and that's how her mood was throughout. I understand some days are like that but she could have just explained herself to me earlier and I will understand and left her for the day, no fight about that. She knows how to get me and that's what she did to beg me and I said no problem.
My point is;
If I haven't called her to hear her out, that's how I would have held grudges against her and will not talk to her or called her without hearing her side of the story. If at all she texts me on WhatsApp without talking about the former day to her, I will sluggishly answer her but won't be interested in the conversation. But the fact that I called her settles everything, I asked her and she talked about it and no offence after that.
That's how people in a dating relationship and every other type should do, they should learn to hear each other out first before holding offence on anyone. What you are thinking your partner is doing to you might be wrong and for that, you shouldn't assume that's what she's doing, call her and talk to her about what she is doing and you guys will iron out everything from there, the same applies to the ladies too, call him and hear his side of the story before you guys go into grudges that aren't necessary.
I was happy I could talk to her and iron out things out cos losing someone dear to you based on what you are thinking or assume can be very painful and sad.
So please ladies and gentlemen, if you have that friend of yours that is dear to you or was dear to you but you guys are on the verge of breaking the friendship, why not call him/her today and make an amendment today. Call her to greet him/her, talk about how you feel and how sorry you are and from there, peace will reign.
Let me put a stop to it here, it's already looking as if I am a relationship counsellor 😅😅😅, I am not ooo. I am just trying to emulate my boss @Olasquare the one that is capable of giving relationship advice and he is a love doctor with so many love pills, I hail you sir.
Thanks for reading, I am sure you have grabbed a lot today. Remain blessed till I write again.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
BitcoinCash: the very language for everyone
Talking about the crypto world, bitcoincash isn't new to everyone, the only problem we have is that it hasn't been massively adopted by everyone. I can even say this is a lie to some extent cos in the cryptoverse, bitcoin cash has been heard due to the massive adoption of cryptocurrency as a whole.
I hardly find anyone who hasn't heard about bitcoin, moreover, one thing will lead to the other which I mean, if one has heard about Bitcoin, you will surely hear about other coins in the long run which bitcoin cash Is also part. It's becoming very well known to people and it's now the chorus in the mouth of everyone.
Even small children now talk about it just like @Big-E said in one of his articles that his junior brother and his neighbour were having a conversation about bitcoincash, he was surprised just like I was also surprised too. Every stage of age now knows what we called BITCOINCASH, and that's why I have titled this article BITCOINCASH: THE VERY LANGUAGE FOR EVERYONE.
When bitcoincash is now the very language for everyone, it means it has been globally accepted and is the talk of the town. Many things have allowed it to stay due to its ability to do something unique that other coins couldn't do. Of course, when something is good, it will be generally accepted and will be what every person will want to use, do and that's exactly what bitcoincash is doing.
Thanks for reading.
Should I teach you how to write?
This is actually a very funny question to ask everyone on this platform because this is a writing site and for you to have signed up to be here, means you already know how to write and that's why you sign up. Is this really true? It's a YES and NO answer and I will definitely say my reasons for both answers.
It's a YES answer because, in one way or the other, someone must have informed you about the site or you get to come across it online while surfing the internet which means the secret behind the site must have been revealed to you that it's a writing site and that you can write is the reason for the signup.
It's a NO answer because many might not even have the idea of how to write but really wish to know about it, so for that reason, they sign up with the motive of reading various writers' articles and grab one or two things and learn for themselves on how to write.
Since I have cleared myself of the question above, should I proceed to teach you all how to write? Of course yes will be the answer by the majority. Let's begin;
Start with what you know
What do I mean by this? If at all you are new to writing articles, you aren't new to say things to your friends. Start putting that conversation into words, all those gists you do have with your friends, start by putting them into pen and paper, before you know it you will make a complete article about how your day went. Learn to put things you do daily into writing and before you know it, you will start writing about other things and that's how I started personally.
Be free;
What do I mean by this? You don't have to take writing as a very hard thing, it isn't at all. Be free with it, play around with it, and write as it comes to your mind without any doubt. Don't think too much when you are writing, you might get lost and find it hard to retrace your step back but when you are not thinking too much, it will come easily to you and you will flow so well with it.
This goes well, especially when you are writing things about yourself, that's the easiest of writing, you freestyle with it and before you know you are done. Don't always want to write about topics that will give you a tough time, write things you know, experienced, read, saw and all, all these will make your article free.
Use corrective keypad
No one is an island of knowledge, we are bound to make mistakes but to avoid making the same mistakes every time, we should type with a keypad that will correct our grammar and use of words. I use a Grammarly keypad which is common to every other writer too. There are a lot of English correction keypads out there, so you can choose whichever one you like I am only citing an example of the particular one that I use.
The keypad of such keep you away from grammatical blunders that can allow your readers, to get tired of reading your articles. It will allow the free flow of your words and won't make your reader get tired.
Every other thing you need is the common ones like having a catchy title, being content-filled, having your reader's heart at hand etc.
I hope with all these we can always bring up a beautiful write up for people to always read and be delighted in.

Thanks for your time in reading this, I really appreciate it.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Rusty why?
I am sorry if for like two days I haven't been active here, that's because I went for a praise night in my cousin's church, it's the church I attend whenever I am in school, so I had to join them in their youth week to show that I am also part of them. The praise night was a vigil that holds between the hour of 10 pm on Friday till after 3 am on Saturday whereas we are also going to the beach on that Saturday morning. We slept for only a few hours and woke up to prepare to leave for the beach around 7 am. We left for the journey around 8 am, the beach was situated in the village I came from so it was a long journey but it was still within the state of Lagos state.
We came back very late at night around 8 pm with a lot of up and down that happened during the journey, we thank God for the journey's mercy cos it wasn't an easy one. All these stress combined made me inactive on the site and was seriously drained out. As I typed presently I am still very tired cos we had t wake up early this morning to go to church again, I haven't rested very well, hopefully, I will do that after publishing my article, I am sorry for my excuses. Let me go straight to the reason for today's article, shall we?
Why?
I intended to write this article with a lot of why's questions but the inspiration got off my head and I decided to write about that tomorrow and face rusty @TheRandomRewarder once again to know the reason for his actions.
Why the truancy in my last article?
Why the low earnings on that article?
Why have you decided to spoil my high hope?
So many why's questions popping in my head but restricted to only these, for now, I don't know why my last article earning was low. I couldn't make up to $1 within 24hours and I wondered what might have caused it but all I know is that it's well. You raised my hope very high that I thought adjustments have been made to my earnings but it wasn't like that, why rusty?
I need you to look into my case once again, like I said you are my Gee, and your Gee doesn't deserve such treatment. Your Gee deserves better treatment and better earnings, I will hope for the better while I put a stop here.
Thanks in advance @TheRandomRewarder.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Dùpé tié (be grateful for yours)
Have you ever thought that your problem is the greatest of all? Lols, I know that thinking won't be far from you after going through a difficult time and it seems everything is all rough and the road that was bright initially wasn't bright any longer. It was that time friends were not there to help you and hold your hands for support, your family looks like enemies at that time too and you lost hope due to that and you started crying and lamenting, hmmm. I only have a single question for you, have you gone to the street to ask people what they are also facing too?
You need to do that and hear other people talk about their problems so that you can weigh everything together and compare it with yours. It's that time you will know that yours is small and you need to be grateful for yours. Instead of you crying and complaining, why can't you think deeply about the good old days and be grateful for those times, be grateful cos if others see your type of your problem, they will prefer yours over theirs.
An example to buttress my point
My letter to rusty wasn't just written out of the Blue Moon, it was written for a reason. Right before writing the letter, I have been so grateful for the ones that I have been receiving cos when I noticed the reduction in my earnings, I went to check other prominent users that I know and check if it's the same as mine. I noticed some were also affected and some weren't affected. I also checked some users that are on the site with the same-month-old like me, I noticed their earnings were even far behind mine, when I saw this, I cautioned myself not to feel bad but be grateful that I am at least receiving some tokens. The letter was just a turnaround coincidence for me, thanks to rusty @TheRandomRewarder once again, I am grateful.
Back to the topic
I am sure we understood that simple example that I explained above. We shouldn't be ungrateful for the little ones that we have, we shouldn't allow whatever we are passing through to weigh us down or make us do the unspeakable. We should learn to give thanks in whatever condition that we may find ourselves, be it good or bad. Your problem isn't the toughest, others only decided to cover their problem with clothes, they have the worst one compared to yours, after knowing this, why do you now have trouble thinking again? Fine, we are human and we are expected to think but it shouldn't be to the point of depression or being ungrateful.
**Know all these that I have said and know peace ✌️.**
Thanks for reading and God bless us all🥰🥰🥰
Thank you rusty
It was with one mind (heart of hope) that I wrote a letter to rusty @TheRandomRewarder, thanking him for all he has done for me and my family over the months that I have got to know about read.cash. I wrote to him to show my appreciation and that I am not ungrateful but grateful for all he had done. At the same time, I tender my heart panting towards him, telling him how I noticed a reduction in my earnings over the past three weeks, I never acted as if I am worthy of it but I pleaded to have his good side again and change towards me for better with the hope that he will do it.
After writing it and publishing it, I dropped my pen and left for the better. I engaged in other writers' articles and went offline to see what is about to happen but to my surprise, I was surprised. Rusty visited me in a miraculous way that I asked for, I won't say I never expected cos if I haven't expected it so what's the reason for my writing? I expected it but wasn't expecting it to be that quick. Rusty listened to my heart's plea and answered my prayer request which made me so happy and grateful.
It was as if I gave rusty a bribe whereas I don't know his house or his friends🤣🤣🤣, it was just rapid with his visit. I had to put on my dancing shoe and I dance around, my mom and dad have to ask me what happened? I told them my Gee @TheRandomRewarder gave me a surprise visit and they started praying and all I could say was AMEN. They were also happy cos they know something will surely drop for them 🤣 especially my mom, she knows how to manoeuvre her ways to enter my pocket 🤣🤣🤣.
Let me do this officially by saying **THANK YOU RUSTY FOR VISIT**, I am very grateful for this and I am sure this will continue to be forever. I know you have come to stay and we will be forever till only God knows.
I will drop my pen here but will leave a note for rusty. Rusty when you see this, I want you to know I love you big time, you will forever be my Gee🥰🥰🥰.
Thanks for reading, goodbye for now.
Letter to Rusty
With sincerity of heart, I am writing this to you @TheRandomRewarder, I have a lot to say but let me start by saying thank you for all you have done. I know you are artificial intelligence and definitely, there will be someone behind you operating you which isn't clear to us all and if I am wrong it's fine, I will accept it and just stick to the fact that you are random.
Thank you very much rusty cos ever since I get to know about this site, you have given me freedom financially. I have always depended on my parent for money since I am still a student but it turned around when read.cash came into my life. I now sponsor myself with what I earn from this site without waiting for my parent to give me money. I can now stand among my friends and talk boldly too cos I have a little with me to show that I can't be bullied or intimidated. All these read.cash as done to me and I really appreciate it, thanks @TheRandomRewarder.
But this is the reason for me to write, I have noticed for like three weeks now that my earnings have been totally small, I hardly earn up to $1 within 24hrs which wasn't like that before. I understand you are random but does the random has to lower my earnings? I have noticed it's not everywhere cos some writers do earn as usual but mine has changed. I don't know the reason but I write this to tell you to seek for your face again 🤣🤣🤣, pity your friend cos I have once written in one of my articles that HAVE GOT GEES, and I said you are my Gee and you shouldn't be doing this to your Gee.
I depend solely on my earnings cos my mom has been on holiday, being the one that has been taking care of some responsibilities since I have been at home cos of the strike from school. I believe there will be an improvement in my earnings after this letter to you cos you are my Gee.
Thanks in advance for the improvement about to be done, I really appreciate it.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Is education still a scam to you?
The rate at which students in my school keep saying "school na scam" meaning school is a scam is so alarming. They keep saying this and I am like is this for real? Is school truly a scam? Is there no value in education again? Is education not the best legacy again? All these questions popped up in my head because of the levity hands my fellow mates and junior ones are using to handle education.
So many people out there don't have any belief in education at all here in Nigeria cos of the way our educational system is over here. They are not ready to even learn even the basics at all because so many graduates are out there jobless. They thought they don't have anything to offer if they don't have any job instead they send their children to learn handiwork without knowing what education is.
I am not saying that learning handiwork is a bad thing, not at all. In fact, it's a great thing when our children learn handiwork but it should go along with education. Handiwork without any knowledge of education is nothing to write about. I am not saying there isn't anyone out there that didn't make it without education, there is but they are few. Even the few ones, ask them what their face see before they got to that stage. They will tell you education is important and they regretted they didn't learn it.
One of Nigeria's old leaders, Obafemi Awolowo once said that " the education he brought to the western part of Nigeria, is not for fun but for them to be able to communicate with others of a different race since English is a universal language". He said this to advise them to learn it so that they won't feel cheated at all in whatever they are doing.
Many Nigerians will know a particular comedian who does go around with an Army after reporting that some set of people abuses him with lovely words. He does meet with those that don't know what education is at all, he will report to the Army that the person said " he is beautiful ", you need to come and see the way those people will be rolling on the floor begging him that they didn't say that, tears in their eyes saying they didn't say that. The begging is always massive cos of the fear of what the Army can do to them.
If they had been educated, they will know the word " beautiful " is not abuse but a compliment. He does use different words like "handsome, fine, generous" but the uneducated ones won't know all these words are good, they will start crying and begging that they didn't call him that in the presence of the Army he brought to them. With all these, many still don't see the reason to be educated, hmmm, I pity a lot of them with this mentality.
There was a story I heard about a particular man, he was not educated. He has a handiwork that provides his daily bread for him, he was so good with the work that people want to work with him. So one day, some white men came to him to help him promote his work locally and abroad. The painful part was that he couldn't communicate back to them in English, unfortunately for him, his apprentice was a bit educated and he knows about the work too. This man called his apprentice to talk to the white men which he did but the other way round. The apprentice told them he is a co-owner of the work and he is ready to do what they said. By the time the white men left, he told his boss that they are not serious, they just came to waste their time. Since his boss doesn't understand all that they said, he ignored them and move on.
The apprentice went behind and arrange with the white men and before his boss could know what was happening, he already planned the deal with the white men and left the country. All this happened because the boss wasn't educated and couldn't understand all that they are saying. This is the reason why one should be educated even if it's just the basics because a time will come when it will be needed. Education is never a scam even though the economy is not appreciating it in Nigeria. The word is evolving and it require everyone to be educated.
With this little, I think I am able to convince you that education is the best property you can get and give to your child also. Change your notion about education and school as a whole, it's what you need most in life.
Thanks for reading and God bless us all 🥰🥰🥰.
Our choices differ
Hey readers, how are you all doing? I am pretty sure we all are doing well.
If you love a person, you will buy him clothes to cover his body. Hate a person, you will be happy to see him go naked. My friend, if you have a choice to make and the results differ, then it is your choice that differs. It is not because of the difference in results that your choices differ.
The reason why people choose different things is that they differ in their points of view. For example, an old man will choose to play chess since he sees more fun in playing it than in playing football. While a young man will choose football since he finds more fun in kicking the ball than moving chess pieces around the board.
the world has different choices, what A likes will surely be different compared to what B likes cos we can't be the same.
we are all unique.
no one is a clone.
no one can be replaced.
we all are different.
we all have different strengths and weaknesses.
we can learn from each other and help each other to become better.
let love and care unite us so that there will be no hatred, no war and no violence.
Our choices differ because we are not the same and this is a fact of life. You see, we all have different personalities, different thoughts and different backgrounds which is why we also have different preferences too.
See every time a person asks, "why choose this? And why not choose to do that?" Well, the answer is simple because it's simply us who chooses the most. The only difference between you and me is what I want and what you want, cos we chose it.
The question that should be asked is, "how much have you done to achieve what you want? How much work are you willing to do to get what you want? And how much effort are you willing to put into achieving what you want? Think about it.
Our choices differ, know this so well, what identical twins likes will surely be different, they won't always like the same thing cos we can't be the same. But then again, we do have similarities. We do share the same dreams, worries and even beliefs.
Being different is not a bad thing.
Different people from different walks of life have different aspirations and goals.
And we need to be motivated in different ways. Mr A likes to be motivated by the prospect of an upcoming holiday, where he'd be able to kick back, relax and soak up the sun.
Mr B likes to be motivated by the prospect of working his way to a six-pack or a bigger bank balance.
What they both have in common is that they're human beings like you and me. They too need the motivation to achieve their goals, dreams and aspirations in life.
So what's your motivation?
You see, we all have different personalities, different thoughts and different backgrounds which is why we also have different preferences too.
Don't always expect people to like what you want or to always support your motion, don't ever at all because we can't be the same, our choices differ a long way.
I just decide to remind us of this particular topic, it is what we all are familiar with, thanks for reading and God bless us all.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Good Friday
I don't know if it's a good Friday they call it in your place too but here it's what we call it, Like we all know the reason for this season and particularly the reason why we call it Good Friday here. It's on a day like this our saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ was nailed on the cross and crucified because of our sins. I know today isn't Friday any longer but I have to write about when I couldn't finish it yesterday cos I was busy and I went to a vigil last night in our church for the Good Friday programme. I had it in mind to complete it yesterday but my body couldn't, sorry about this though, happy reading.
Just like my pastor said one time in a season like this that it shouldn't be referred to as a good Friday but as a sad Friday cos it was a bitter and sad day for Christ Jesus, he was chastised and spat on for our sake. He was seriously beaten for our sake, despite all these, he never changes his words that he can no longer do it.
He came to die and pay for our sin, no one else can do it apart from him. He was meek and humble throughout all the beatings and never said any word to those punishing him, what a saviour he is. He never sends down fire to consume those that are punishing him despite he is God and can do anything, what a saviour he is. It's truly a sad day for him and us all cos someone died to take away our sin, we all would have been punished and died for it but he did in replace for us, what a loving God.
It's a day we all need to sit and think of the suffering he underwent for us so as to come back to our senses and change from our evil ways. Change all our bad attitudes and turn a new leaf cos his death shouldn't go in vain over our life. Many will still celebrate all this in a beer parlour, hotel with someone's else wife, club etc which is wrong and bad.
It's a day our saviour died for God's sake, why should it be celebrated that way? It's a moody day cos of his pains and suffering and it's a happy day cos our sin was carried away by him. We need to screen our life during this period to know if we are on the right path or not and after that we should work toward walking in the right way.
I know this write up is short but I need to do it this way before the time finally runs out cos tomorrow is Easter Sunday already, the day our Lord Jesus rose from death. I appreciate your time in reading this, so I will put a full stop here by wishing us all Happy Easter in advance, have a joy-filled Sunday in Jesus' name.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
I prefer death
You really need to calm down with me cos of the title of the article. You don't have to be scared of anything, moreover, death is inevitable and we all must pay the price. Death is a debt we all owe unknowingly and it is a must that we pay it back by dying. I see no reason why some should still be scared of death after all the lessons and experiences gathered together in this world. Life is nothing but vanity upon vanity.
I was just sitting down with my mom and dad one evening when they started talking about a particular man in our area, he is a landlord but some terrible happened. He has a stroke and the stroke took all parts of his body that he can't walk, sit nor talk, it was so bad for him that he is always lying down every time. All the systems of his body have died, he doesn't know when to urinate or poo, he does that on his body in the same position that he was. His wife will have to wash him clean every now and then whenever he does the urinating or pooing.
Numerous times will he urinate in a day and let's say he poos twice a day, and she will have to clean it to prevent the house from smelling, is the stress not too much for the wife? It's definitely too much for her, their children are grown-up children and they are in their husband's house, and only the wife is doing the caring. The man himself will be very tired of all that has happened to him, he will prefer to die than go through all that's happening to him. He must have cried and begged God to allow him to die to cover the shame on him. His wife will also prefer him to die than all the stress she is going through every blessed day.
She is the one feeding the both of them, she has a business she is doing and with that, she still has time to take care of her husband, what a woman she is.
There are some situations one will find himself in life and will prefer to die than to keep living in disgrace and sadness. Like my dad and mom said that evening that death saves one from shame and pain which is true. Assuming the man has died long ago, he won't be having the shame and pain he is having now, his wife must have forgotten about him cos nothing to stress her again. I pray God will not allow us to be in the position that will allow us to make death as our last option, Amen!!!
We have some sicknesses that will make one prefer death immediately after thinking over it and such a person couldn't bear the pain again. I don't want any sickness like this too, I will also prefer death cos it's once and no pain involved.
Many will think maybe I am depressed and that's why I am talking about death, lmao. I am not at all, I write according to how the inspiration comes, I write based on what I heard, read and experience. Thanks for reading this, I really appreciate it.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Point of correction
I think it's high time I correct most people with what they keep saying anytime such an issue arises. It sounds like something very irritating to me and that's why I have to talk about it.
We all know we are at the last hour of the world and different news that we haven't heard before will keep coming in every blessed day. No wonder money rituals and cybercrime now look like normal things that everyone can do without having any conscience judging them. They now see it as something legal and no one can talk to them about it. That aside, many who called themselves God's messenger or servant are now seen with what they shouldn't be involved in at all.
There's this popular man in Nigeria popular known as "Oba Solomon", he called himself a pastor or people call him pastor because he does put on a white garment I don't even know, he keeps saying nonsense and illicit words and it disgusts me when people talk about him and refer to him as pastor. I stand to correct everyone here and everywhere that anyone that does things outside the word of God or something unacceptable and claims to be a pastor shouldn't be referred to as a pastor, please🙏🙏🙏. He or she only called him or herself a pastor, they are not a pastor because a true pastor will never do that.
They are all calling themselves pastors just because of the fame and respect people will give them, they are not at all, don't refer to them as pastors whenever they are called out for something bad cos they aren't in the first place. I wish everyone can read this and stand to be corrected, I am always pained when non-believers argue with cases like this, they will keep saying " and they are pastors", why? Why do you have to say pastor, they aren't pastors at all, it is all these that make many backslide and many don't want to be saved with all this news of self acclaim pastors.
Recently I heard the news of a particular man who called himself a pastor, he was travelling for a crusade and he had to dress up with weeds on his body. He covered it with his dress but was caught at the embassy. He was interviewed and asked why he had to do that and he said he want to use it for deliverance, lols. Is that a pastor? Of No, he only claims to be so.
Nothing like a good or bad pastor, a pastor is a faithful steward according to the Bible in Titus 1 vs 7. He is the one who God called to counsel and advice people on God's words, he lives his life according to God's words. So tell me where the good or bad pastor comes in? Anyone who does out of this definition should not be referred to as a pastor, they only claim to be so, God didn't call many, they called themselves because of what they will eat and benefit from it.
I will have to put a stop to it here, I hope I have been able to correct us all on this issue. I appreciate your time for reading this, God bless us all.
Bye for now 🥰🥰🥰.
Better have sense
This will be a quick one cos I can see people writing about it, I don't want it to go like that without me saying anything about it. I was shocked at first when I saw the news of the popular Nigerian singer who died as a result of maltreatment from her husband. This is not the first time we will hear news like this and I am sure she has also heard of cases like this before she died. I will blame her and I won't blame her at the same time, I understand the fact that she is concerned about what people will say if she definitely divorces her husband. She is a minister which a lot of people look up to and follow in her footsteps. If she divorces, many will backslide cos of who she is, many see her as a small God, mentor and a lot of things you can call it which she also has considered and accepted to stay in the relationship.
The above is the reason why I won't blame her, now get my point, I never said what she did was right, she shouldn't have lived her life based on what people will say. She has her life to live and shouldn't have considered that. Before I move on to the next point, I will like to let's know that, it is only when something bad has happened to someone that some people become very wise in their thinking. Different comments on Twitter concerning the issue which I chose to ignore cos some have no point at all, they all claim to be wise cos it wasn't them it happened to. As I am writing this, stating all points as if I am one island of knowledge, don't be shocked if I have also made some mistakes too but that's not where I am going, what I am saying is that there are some basic things we could have avoided and never let somethings happen.
A quick example to buttress my point
I was in the room in school when one of my roommates said something and ever since then I have always been very careful of my move and action. The guy just came back from the toilet with all his body wet and because they just brought the light, he was eager to plug his phone charger into the socket and my roommate shouted at him that he shouldn't try that. He told him to clean his body up first and avoid the chance of being electrocuted.
We all can see it as a small issue but he said his mom does beat them for every little thing that could have been avoided. He might not get shocked but it's better he avoids that by getting himself dried up before charging his phone.
Back to my point
I am sure we all understood what I wrote up there. She could have avoided being killed by this man by leaving the house for him (maybe divorce too), she just wasted her life and that's why I will blame her. She has a better option to avoid it cos day In day out, different news about maltreatment by of men to their wives is always heading the news but she chooses to ignore which leads to her death.
Point to take note:
*****Christianity doesn't support divorce because what to do after a divorce is very hard for both couples to bear. You can divorce biblically but after the divorce, none of them has the right to get married to any other person again, is either they remain single till they both die or marry each other back. But we all know that in the present world, it's very hard for anyone to remain single without having to think of s*x and all other things, if they both have s*x with any other person aside from themselves, its already adultery biblically which is wrong and it's a sin and that's why Christians will prefer not to divorce cos it's hard to remain single for many out there.*****
The title of the article looks harsh and I know that. I should put it that way cos many are guilty of this event and will still never change, I am seriously angry over this issue cos many are still under bondage and aren't ready to leave too till they die.
***I have the belief that he will change, he already begged me and he said it won't happen again, I really love him and he does, he just can't control himself which he will soon, where do you want me to start from if I leave him, how will I take care of my four children if I leave him?***
All these silly questions and words are those words coming out of most ladies and women out there that couldn't allow them to leave where they are being treated like slaves. To the ladies out there, you should use your sense, don't be fooled and blinded by love or sweet words from guys or men. She must have been seeing the sign during their courtship, yes I believe that too but wait, what if he was able to pretend over the years and never portray that habit? He might not show it during courtship at all.
The big question goes thus ****"did you pray before getting married to him?****" Marriage isn't just about I love him and he loves me too, you should pray about it if truly he is the man or woman for you. If he is the right man for you, nothing of such will happen and if it happens, it is the work of the devil and you must pray about it. It wouldn't lead to your death if he is the right man for you but was used by the devil. Many ladies out there know that their current fiance isn't worth being a husband but they choose to keep quiet and have believed that he will change when they get married, hmmm, you should cut it off now and the best time to do that is now.
Marrying the wrong person will surely lead to all these, it's better you pray very well before going into marriage before it's too late for you. Get the right person as your partner to avoid stories that touch.
I will put a stop here, I stand to be corrected in the comment section wherever you feel I am wrong. Thanks for reading🥰🥰🥰.
Bye for now.
Every second of pain
"You don't know the value of good health until you lose it" is a popular saying and this is what Mr A kept saying every time he woke up from his sleep. He prefers he shouldn't wake up but sleep forever till he will regain his health and wake up to live a healthy life but that's not how life is. He needs to wake up to life and do the normal norms of life.
Mr A fell sick while he travelled to his hometown to celebrate the festive period with his family members. He didn't know what was about to befall him cos he was still sound and healthy a day before the incident. He woke up this very day, early in the morning and a breeze blew towards him and he discover he couldn't stand on his feet again. He was rushed to by his brothers and before he knew it, the sickness has taken over him. The rest is now history even though he has still not fully recovered from the sickness.
He feels pain every single day cos the sickness affected his left hand and leg. Both of them look dead but there are chances that it will be back to normal cos he felt pain and shock from there. Every step he takes brings to him pain, every move done to his hand brings his pain. He has tried bearing it but it's getting too long and he couldn't bear it again.
He feels pain every second, he has chosen death over life a million times but what can he do? Nothing, cos killing oneself is a sin. Encouragement from his wife and children is what keeps him moving, all the words of encouragement harden his heart and believes he will be completely healed one day.
He was never left alone cos he look depressed every moment alone and it wouldn't speak well if such a person is left alone, he is always surrounded by his children to avoid having bad thoughts which might lead to something else. He has been on drugs ever since and what he hopes for presently is a miracle which I believe can happen.
Nothing is small for God to do which I strongly believe cos the pain is too much for him. It's as if the pain renews itself every single time cos the same place keeps paining him with a different pain. I pray the mighty God will heal him and make him whole.
Pain is never what one should pray for nor wish for their enemy cos it's a real-life struggle. I know many of us might have experienced pain in one way or the other and knows how it feels to be in pain. I pray for everyone out there that might be in any form of pain, I pray to the good lord that he will make you whole and free you from all kinds of pain. He will take away all pain and replace it with good and everlasting health.
Based on a true life story.
Thanks for reading 🥰🥰🥰.
