Don't Set That New Goal
It is never too late to start again or to begin something. It is left for you to determine whether you'll start or not. Time is not really a determinant. You are the main determinant. When you determine, every other thing will follow suit.
Happy New Month to everyone. I wish you a great month ahead.
Thank God for this new month. It's a privilege to still witness this month, and we trust in God to bring us into the new year in sound health. I will like to use this opportunity to appreciate some people: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Around this time last year, motivational talks on setting new goals for the new year began. Apart from setting new goals, other topics like cutting off some people, and others were everywhere. I understand that every new year comes with a kind of new feeling. You only have that feeling because you have the calendar and the clock to tell you when a new year is. Therefore, your emotions have adjusted to that way. We get excited about new months and new years unlike a new day because it has become normal to us, because we're used to waking up to a new day. Have you ever imagined of how it felt when there was no calendar and not everyone could read the times and seasons. You could wake up into a new year without knowing until someone tells you that we're already in a new year.
We're already in the last month of this year and people have begun preparations for next year. People have started setting goals for the coming year. This is not bad actually but not everybody finishes their yearly goals. How then do we go about working with the goals that were not achieved?
This is not discourage you from setting yearly goals. It's actually good but it is very easy to set unrealistic and unfeasible goals most especially when it is long duration goal. What makes a goal or aim achievable is the ability to understand and break it down into smaller units. That is why division of labour is one of the strongest part of labour.
Humans have the tendency to be discouraged. Discouragement is one of our weaknesses as humans. Even successful people have had times they taught of giving up. No matter how strong willed and focused you're. There'll be times that you feel like nothing is working.
When you set goals that are unrealistic, and in addition to that you do not have a breakdown of that goal into smaller units, with a plan on how to achieve it, you'll be discouraged on the long run. You can be motivated at the start but what will keep you going is discipline and progress already made.
Yearly goals can be broken down into smaller units like hours. First, you get the goal for the next year, then you break it down into the months realistically. Don't set targets that you know you cannot achieve. When setting your monthly goals, you have to put into consideration your daily schedule, check for the number of hours you can give to achieving that goal per day. By this, you cannot easily predict what kind of goal you can set per month for yourself.
When you set the monthly goals, you can now move to the daily goals. You also need to be realistic here, because sometimes we like we should be able to achieve this but in reality it's impossible because your daily schedule doesn't allow that. So, you have to be realistic. In working with the daily goals, you can use a to-do-list. Using this to-do-list, it makes things easier for you because you can set the number of hours for different activities which at the end enables you to achieve your goals.
The end of everything is not to discourage you from setting goals, but to help you know that you should set realistic goals and not just write what you know you can't achieve.
Thanks for reading through. Bye for now and have a great month. God bless you.
Sound health matters
Hello guys, how are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day.
I'm sorry I've been unable to read any article for a while now. I also have not been able to write any article.
Yesterday, I realized how important sound health is. You won't really appreciate sound health until you fall sick. Nobody prays to fall sick but if you don't monitor your body, one day you'll fall sick.
I was down with fever yesterday. I was having aches all over my body including my head and my joints. It was a very bad experience. I was grounded to the bed. I couldn't do anything tangible yesterday. I couldn't sit, even while on the bed, I still felt serious pains all over.
Although, I'm already on medications, and I'm feeling better, I don't ever wish to fall sick again. I couldn't eat as I should yesterday, every food was just bitter. I was surprised at myself that I couldn't eat. It was unlike me, although I'm not a foodie but it was unlike me not to eat.
Yesterday, I understood that you really can't explain how someone feels except you're put in that condition also. There are times when we'll feel like sick people are just exaggerating, it's not as they portray it to be. Well, yesterday I knew that it is possible to be weak and be in pains. That is why I can't wish sickness for anyone at all even my enemy.
Yesterday's experience taught me some lessons, and I'll be sharing them with you. But before I do that, I'll like to thank some special people here: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

The first lesson I learnt is the importance of rest. Really? Yes, really. Rest is an integral part of a human life. No person can survive without rest. We have created in a way that rest is one of our daily activities. Rest is an activity because you must put yourself to either do it or not. So many people work for days without a set time for rest.
I know we all want to be rich and successful, and that it takes hardwork to achieve that. But if you're not careful, you'll be successful, but the time you're supposed to use in enjoying your wealth, you'll be using it to hop from hospital to hospital because you've exposed your body to consistent work and pain without rest. As much as, it is not good to be lazy, having time for rest doesn't tag you as an unserious fellow.
You deserve rest and should get rest. Everything in this has limit to how long it can last. Now if your body was designed to live for 80 years, what determines whether you'll stay till 80 is if your body can still stay and if 6ou take care of your body.
One observation I had concerning rest is that, it's not only physical work that should make you have rest. You can overwork yourself mentally and this is a common one. You find yourself working everyday of the week without setting a time out for rest. Also, you can sleep with your brain still working. That also is wrong. When you rest, make sure every part of you is resting too.
Second lesson learnt is about you monitoring your body. Before the body breaks down fully, it gives signs that make you know that your body is getting overworked. When you get these signals, do not ignore them. Quickly visit the doctor to prescribe medication for you, because it'll be better then than when you body breaks down entirely.
I ignored those signs multiple times, that is why when it finally came, I couldn't even stand or sit because my body had reached the limit, that it couldn't even bear any more stress again.
Third lesson is the importance of exercise. I was one of the people that downplay exercise. But with just happened I'll never joke with exercise. Even if it's a 30 minutes walk, try to engage in some form of exercise so that your body won't be dormant.
I think these are the lessons for now. Have a nice day. Thanks and God be with you. Amen
Another Sunday again.
Another Sunday again. Happy Sunday to you. I trust that you're having a great day. I also hope you didn't stay back at home today. I hope you went to church. I have always said that Sundays are always great time to fellowship with the brethren and worship with God in spirit. Maybe one of these Sundays, I'll write on what a church provides. That is the advantages and the benefit of a Sunday service.
Unfortunately, I was unable to write any article yesterday because I was tired yesterday and I needed time off any thing screen. Sometimes it is necessary to have time off the screens both PC and phones.
I'll be sharing my sermon today but before I continue I'll like to thank some special people here: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

My sermon today will go in the letters of the day Sunday. Let's go
S- Shout, o ye people to the Lord and praise His Holy name. Our shout to the Lord is not a shout of complain instead, it is shout of praise to our God. It's a proclamation of his wonders and miracles in our lives. In shouting, we make known His greatness for all humans to know. We understand that our shout can perform a great wonder for us. An example is the children of Isreal who through shout had the walls of Jericho fall down flat. Through great shout of praise, great wonders are wrought and we provoke the Majesty of God to doing great things for us.
U- Until He his satisfied, do not stop praising Him. We will not get tired of praising God. For through praise, we stir God up to do great and mighty things. God expects all His creature to worship Him. We should live with a posture of perpetual worship and thanksgiving to God for His mercies.
N- Never be the ungrateful one. It's a very wrong thing to be the one that'll be tagged ungrateful by God. How does it feel like when you do someone a favour without the person saying thank you. It hurts right? It makes you feel like your effort was useless or even was not needed by the way. It's like nobody asked you to do me a favour. I'm sure that the maximum number of time you can do a favour for that person will be three times, that is if you're really patient and kind enough. The sane goes with God. Although, God will still continue to be good unlike we humans. This does not still give us the opportunity to be ungrateful. Something happened during Jesus' lifetime. He healed 10 lepers hut only 1 of them came back to thank Him. Jesus took note of that. Therefore, do not be the one that'll be tagged ungrateful by God.
D- Despite the ups and downs, he has kept you till this time in this year. The year is already coming to an end. I'm sure you know that you being here is not by your efforts or strength. God has been the one there to always keep and protect you. Even in down times, He's still there to uphold you.
A- Allow Him come into your life, He's kept bcos he still has a plan for you. Being alive today as we all agree is by the mercies of God. He still wants to have a personal relationship with you. He wants to be involved in your daily life and activities. He wants you to know Him intimately as you would know a friend. Why not allow Jesus into your heart. There's so much that you have in Jesus. You've lived outside of Him enough. Why not give Jesus a chance in your heart.
Y- You cannot attain your full essence and purpose outside Him. We all want to be fulfilled. We all want to achieve purpose. But what is purpose outside of what the creator created you to be. You cannot know and fulfil the utmost of your purpose on earth outside of the creator. But, how can you now know this purpose? You can only know this purple by enquiring from the creator. The only way to access your creator is by Jesus Christ. Through Him only can you access and live in purpose. Therefore, the bottom line of all is that you come to Jesus because only in Him can you be who you were create to be.
That's all for now. Have a great day. I wish you a great week ahead.
On a Day Like This
Good day guys. How are you doing today? How has your week been? I trust that you had a great day and week.
Today feels like an odd day for me. I've not been able to get what to write on. Or better still, I don't even feel like writing any article for today. This is not the first time I'll be feeling this but this time is actually.
For sometime now, Rusty has decided not to visit me frequently as he used to. Maybe this also contributed to me not having any vibe or drive to write.
Today's article might be very short, because as I write now, there's still no drive to write anything.
This week has been very busy for me, mostly in my thought process. Not like I'm thinking too much, but you know when you're trying to get how and when to do things. This is you tasking your brain to think.
The loads of things to learn has increased for me. I just registered for a course and I have to go through all the materials and understand them, do my assignments also. These past few days, time has suddenly become insufficient to allow me for everything. I'm a kind of person that likes to get things done as soon as possible because I don't like last minute things. I try to ensure that I do my things at the right time, this gives me enough time to go through and review some things again for possible changes.
This is a very good one but also it has its own effect on your mental health. You'll always want to get everything done in one day. In a situation where you're unable to, you become restless.
I hope to finish all that I have to do so that I'll be composed enough to do other things. Every time I feel stressed out because I've actually overworked my brain than my body by thinking of how to finish everything as soon as possible. Whereas, it is practically impossible to do. Most times, I just multitask because of the shortness of time available.
The reason I'm trying to finish this course is that I'm currently on holiday and I'll be resuming in the coming weeks and I'll not want to combine it with my school work, because my school work is usually hectic and is enough to deal with, not to think of adding another course to it, hereby compounding the workload.
Let me just use this opportunity to thank some special people: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

With me not having any drive to write today, a question came to my mind which is my reason for writing. Actually, I'm not a writing person, but in the past years, I've come to realize the importance of writing. When I was in junior secondary school, my notes were not always complete, because I despised writing. But I found out a problem with not writing, and it is that when exams come, there's nothing to serve as revision for you. Although, it did not really affect me because it was junior secondary school.
When I got to senior secondary school, I started doing chemistry, physics and futher maths, I realized that you really needed to write notes, else, you'd fail because those are abstract and you need constant reading and revision to keep them in your brain.
Back to the question which is why you're writing on this platform. To be very frank and candid, I write on this platform because it pays me. The day it folds up, I might stop writing. Because it's not actually to write at least one article per day. It takes a lot of mental work. So I put the question to you now, why do you write on this platform?
Bye and thanks.
Keeping memories
Good day guys, how are you doing today? I'm sure you're having a great day.
I'm having a great day here. My article is coming later than usual. I hope you bear with me. I'm gradually getting busy everyday.
Growing up, one thing I've come to cherish are memories. There are times that we always wish could continue. Moments we wish that never ends. All of us have memories like that.
There are days when I just pick my photo book to check and reminisce on old times. I find pleasure in checking an remembering old times. There are some pictures that are landmarks to some events. Looking at those pictures replay those days in my head like it was yesterday.
There are days where everything will be boring and the only thing that will make you happy are old memories. There are times where things won't feel good and there's nothing to be appreciative for. You just need to recollect times when God has been good.
I personally don't joke with memories. I love memories. That's why every opportunity I get to spend with people, I like to make sure memories are created, because that's the only way you'll remember the person.
There are different ways to you can record memories so that anytime you access them you're feel happy and satisfied. I use these methods and it works so well, such that a wa6 to get out of a bad mood will just to look at them.
Before I list out those methods, I'll like to appreciate some special people here; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
I'll be listing the methods I use I create and keep memories.
1. By Pictures: Pictures are very good ways of keeping memories. I love to take pictures because looking at those pictures is enough to replay every thing that happened that fya in my mind. I have a photo book, that is hardcopy. This photo book contains all my pictures from my childhood up to my university times. I can't imagine loosing this photo book. Losing it is like loosing a part of me. As much as we want to forget the past, we only like to forget the ugly times not the good times.
I'll suggest that you try this out. And if you take pictures, but not frequently. Try to take them more frequently. You can do this with your phone now and even upload them to the cloud so it doesn't get missing.
2. By making videos: Videos are also another beautiful way to keep memories. You can make videos, not too long videos, maybe just. 1 or 2 minutes long, just to keep as a remainder for that day. Snapchat has made it even easier to take short videos and even save on the phone and on cloud. Although, I don't take videos very well. I recommend that's a good one to try.
3. By journalling: You can also try this. By journalling, I mean writing down somethings. There's something we did in secondary school which is that when someone makes a blunder in English, we write it on the wall of the class. This is always fun because, except the class is repainted. Even if you come back in the next five years, you'll still see it and understand how and when it happened. And you'll just smile. You can try this method too.
This is all for today. Thanks and bye for now. Till tomorrow by God's grace.
Am I trustworthy
Good morning guys. How are you doing today? Another Wednesday again. The week is coming to a close very soon as well as the month. I'm not too excited because every day thay passes is you getting older.
Yesterday I wrote on being nice to people, whether we know them or not. I wrote about how you can be a source of encouragement to anybody you meet. It'll be great if everyone of us shows love to another person we come in contact with. Being nice is very good but I'll be writing on another important thing today, which I centered around being trustworthy.
Being trustworthy and loyal are words that seem to have same meaning. They can be used interchangeably although not in all cases,but in some, it can be used. I'll say that a loyal person is trustworthy but a trustworthy person might not be loyal. You see that they can be used interchangeably but not in all cases. You can trust someone but this does not necessarily mean the person is loyal to you. Some people are just trustworthy because it helps them too.
We see different quotes everywhere on trustworthiness and loyalty. Everyone is there saying things like when you find a trustworthy person, never let them go. I'll say that finding a trustworthy person is not that difficult. People tend to act trustworthy as long as they have what to benefit.
I'll continue writing but before I continue, I'll like to thank some special people: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to whether it's hard to find a trustworthy person. I said that it isn't hard. You can get one as long as they have to benefit. But in finding a trustworthy person, why not ask yourself the question ' am I also a trustworthy person' , 'can I be trusted'.
The truth is that you cannot attract who you're not. If you really want a trustworthy person, you too nee to be a trustworthy person first. Take a look at the past conversations, friendships, partnership you've had before, you'll be able to know whether you're trustworthy or not.
If you've not been trustworthy to other people, it won't be easy for you to get people that are trustworthy around you because even if you get one, your heart will not allow you trust them as expected because since you've not been trustworthy, you'll think they're just disguising. Although some are actually disguising. Some are not genuinely trustworthy, they only do it for their benefits.
Let me share a story with you; There was a man that set up a business in his city but got the opportunity to go to another country that he had been desiring to go. He handed over the management of the business both the finances and staff to the man who's like next to him in the business. There was agreements that the manager will be sending reports of the business monthly and the profits made. The manager did this, he was sending reports to the owner. He had even made enough gain that replaced the money the owner used to setup the business.
Unknown to the owner was that the manager had a different plan. The owner stopped receiving reports after about a year. He was surprised but he thought it could be a little glitch. He didn't know the manager had done wonders without his consent. What did the manager do? He had sold the company to another person. Who was this other person? The manager was the other person. You're surprised right. He changed the name of the company, got new legal papers for the company.
After about 3 months, the owner decided to come back to his city in order to visit the company and see what the problem was that reports had stopped coming to him. To his surprise, when he visited the company, he saw a new name on the company. He asked to see the manager. The manager asked that he should not be allowed to come into his office. When he finally got the opportunity to, he was so disappointed to see that he had trusted the wrong person.
What an unfortunate incident right. This story is not to make you think that no one is trustworthy. Rather, it's to make you know that people sometimes are only trustworthy when they have something to benefit. We could see that he made profit and even helped the owner regain the capital because he had another aim in mind.
There are still trustworthy people outside there. You can start by making yourself one, then you pray and trust God to send trustworthy people your way. Also pray for the ability to recognize genuine and trustworthy people.
That's it for today. Thanks for reading through. Bye for now and till tomorrow by God's grace. Have a nice day.
Why harsh? Be nice
Good morning guys. How are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. How was your Monday too?
Yesterday, I wrote on the importance of time management, how bad mismanagement of time has caused and will still cause problems for its victims.
One of the comments on the article was about the idea of African time. This African time idea has really eaten deep into people, such that when an event is slated to start let's say 12pm, we put our additional 1hr30mins. This concept is very common in 90 percent of Nigerian activities.
Even if you say you won't be affected by that mentality and you choose to at the right time, you'll find out that even the organizers are not ready to commence the event because they've not finished setting up.
I'm also guilty of this African time thing and I'm sure 99 percent of Nigerians are also guilty. I just hope that this narrative changes so that people can begin to understand the value of time.
To the subject of today's article. Before I continue on today's article, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

The subject on mind to write about this morning is something that I've seen people guilty of. What is this thing? It is being unnecessarily mean and harsh to people.
This is very rampant now. Everybody has become harsh and hard at everyone without reasons. This is even something very rampant in my country Nigeria, most especially Lagos.
It is understandable that the economy is hard and that everyone is facing one thing or the other. Still, it isn't right to be harsh at anyone you meet. We understand that the country has made everything hard for people. In all this, you can still be nice to people.
Not everyone moving on the road is okay, some are at the verge of giving up on life. As much as it is left for people to decide whether to keep pushing or to give up on life, you can either be a source of inspiration or a channel through which the disappointment and pain in the heart of someone increases.
Someone might be smiling and laughing with you, meanwhile so much is going on that person's mind. That a person dresses well doesn't mean he has everything figured out. Life has not been fair to some people such that they think everyone and everything has been designed to work against them. You should not find yourself contributing to another person's depression.
Some people are also suffering from low self esteem. Some people feel they've been rejected by everyone. If you are harsh against such people, you're adding to the problem they have already.
Although, I've also been guilty of this. I've learnt to be nice to people. You too can be nice to people. You don't have to know them to be nice with them. Try within your possible best to at least put a smile on the next person. You might be the reason someone will keep pushing on.
This is it for today. Thanks for reading through. Bye for now. Till tomorrow by God's grace.
Time In Productivity
Good morning guys. How are you doing today? I trust that you're fine. Happy Monday to you. I wish you a productive week ahead.
As much as Mondays are somehow exciting to me, it is always the beginning of another week filled with work.
Having a productive week is a product of different things. One of which is being time conscious and managing time. Time is a great factor in determining whether you'd have a productive week or not. It starts with the insignificant part like waking up late. Waking up late has already caused a deficit in the time schedule for other activities for the day. If care is not taken, you'd end the day behind schedule because you woke up late.
Being a good manager of time is a skill that must be learnt and practiced over time. Nobody came into this world with the skill of managing time. Everyone had to learn it one point in their life when they realized it was a necessary skill.
Before I continue writing, I'll like to appreciate some people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

I remember now an incident that happened this last Saturday. It was a funny incident and everything that happened is as a result of an habit that was not worked on.
A couple were to get married on Saturday. The marriage was to be done in a Catholic church. There were more than one couple to be joined on that same day at the same time. The wedding was fixed for 9am. There were three couples to be joined in holy matrimony.
Two out of the three couples were present in church at the right time. The priest started the service, in hope that the remaining couple will join them very soon. Lo and behold, they didn't join them. The priest continued with the order of service. They were almost rounding up with the service when the last couple strolled in. Everyone was surprised at the time the couple came in. You can imagine coming late for your own wedding ceremony. A very strange and surprising thing indeed. It is known that the congregation comes in late not the couple. Theirs was an exception. Everyone they invited for their wedding were all seated for the wedding while they came in late.
The priest had to question them, and in another surprising act again, they were smiling as if what they did was right. The priest in disciplining them told them to sit with the congregation and wait for him to finish the ceremony that had stayed before they come back to the latecomers. It was very funny to see the couple come late for their wedding.
What happened is a result of what they had been doing from time to time. They didn't know when it became a habit to go late for meetings.
I know some of us here are guilty of time mismanagement. But it's not too late to start learning to managing time. Because whether you like it or not, one day the rewards will come. And I hope that you won't find the new to learn that skill on the day it matters. I hope you won't have to learn to manage time after it has cost you a lifetime or worthwhile opportunity.
This is my article for today. Thanks for reading through. Have a nice day. Till tomorrow again by God's grace.
Sunday; Christian
Good morning guys. How are you doing today? Happy Sunday to you.
I trust that you went to church today as a Christian. It is very essential for you to go church, because there's a kind of vibe that's always present when people come together to praise and worship God.
Today is Sunday and I have dedicated Sundays to be days for the Lord. Therefore, you'll be getting a sermon from me to you today. There will be no other thing apart from a sermon for today. I trust that as you read through, you'll be blessed, instructed and corrected as it applies to you today. But before I continue, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

I don't know how this article will go, because I've nothing in particular to write about. I trust God for directions.
Who is a Christian? When do you become a Christian?
These questions just popped up in my spirit and it's worthy of discussion. I'll be answering them here but I anticipate your answers in regards to the questions.
To the question of who a Christian is. Whenever we're asked of our religion, maybe in school, at work or whenever we're to fill anything official. Then we say we're Christians. But is this really true and accurate. As we have heard from time to time, Christianity is more of a way of life than a religion. Being a Christian is a culture. You know in cultures, there are things that are unique to them, maybe in things they do or something. They're are always unique. Therefore Christianity is a culture.
In answering who a Christian is, I'll say that a Christian is someone who acts like Jesus. In the bible, Christians were first called Christians in Antioch because of how they believed.
So, anybody that has not been converted or born again is not a Christian because being a Christian is more of a life than just a title. Anybody can bear the title of a Christian. A drunkard when asked his religion might still say that he's a Christian. We can now see that it's more of life than title. Therefore, if you're not yet born again, I can say that you're not a Christian by life, you're just a Christian by title, and a day is coming when being Christian by life will be the entry to eternal rest.
For you that is born again, you do not attain a full Christianhood at the point of salvation because you're not yet in the full stature of the Christ. Jesus Christ has been made by God the one we're to look up to on this journey. Therefore we're to continually look up to Him and learn of Him till we look like Him. This is to say that, no matter how meek an pious we might be, there's still more of Christ to look like. We should continue to pray and strive by the grace of God to look like Jesus.
The main goal is that Christ be formed in us. Because Christ is the model man we have look like, because He obeyed the Father throughout His stay on earth and ultimately fulfilled the reason for His existence on earth. Christ modelled what the new life looked like and how it should be lived.
Christianity is not a static religion with rules and regulations per say. It is a relationship with God such that God is the law giver, the law enforcement agent and the one that helps you to keep the laws. Therefore laws vary from Christians to Christians. Because the laws are now written in the table of our heart.
The peak of the commandment of God is to love. Which is expected of every Christian. Jesus even said that it's by this love that we'll be differentiated from the unbelievers.
I won't be going indepth with love because it's a different ball game entirely.
This is my sermon for today. Have a great Sunday. Thanks for staying through.
Thanks to @BlogHound for the sponsorship renewal. I really appreciate.
Disappointed?
Good day guys. I trust that you're having a great day. How's your weekend going. I hope you're really taking time to rest. Please rest, because it's very important. When you rest, you'll be able perform better at work.
I know today is filled with so many chores. It's everywhere. Saturday is always like the day of chores for everyone. Just make sure you rest when you're done with them.
Almost all of us here have been disappointed, even if you have not been disappointed before, for being on this platform, I'm sure rusty might have disappointed you before either by not visiting your article or not visitjng it as it should. I know you can relate now. It's not always easy to cope with disappointment because sometimes itpains deep inside especially when it comes from the most unexpected person. This is the kind of thing that makes people find it difficult to trust others. For some, the memories of disappointment has never left them, thy keep remembering from time to time, and this makes them sad and hard hearted the more.
Today we'll be discussing on disappointment, but before I go on, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to the subject of today. Disappointment ever remains a thing of to the reciever. The thing about disappointment is that sometimes it's not intentional but you see some people, they do it intentionally. I don't know what breed of people they are.
Why make an agreement with someone even when you know that you won't deliver well and at the right time? This question most applies to Nigerian tailors. Every Nigerian understands this well. Nigerian tailors can disappoint so well. Even if you give them your clothes in the month of January, with the hope of getting it in December, they'll still not deliver. Every Nigerian has had their own fair share of disappointment from tailors.
I believe that if you know that you won't fulfill your promise, why commit yourself to the person. These people are wicked people because they deliberately disappoint without remorse.
Another one is that of you thought that you could deliver but later discovered that you cannot again. Why wait till that day before telling the affected person of your inability to meetup. It has become an habit for some people, definitely, this is a bad habit. Because it won't take long before people start disbelieving the promises you make. If you're unable to meetup with the original promise, inform the individual so that he can find another alternative instead of leaving the person pained and confused.
To the person that has been disappointed even from unexpected people. I know you've lost trust in people. There is a yoruba adage that says that 'if you turn your back for the wicked to pass, you won't know when the good person will pass'. Therefore as much as you need to protect your heart, it'll be nice that you give allowance for some genuine people.
This is all for today. Enjoy your weekend. Thanks

The name
A popular adage goes like this " a good name is more precious than gold or silver"
I know you've heard this before. No one can fully comprehend how a name is more precious than gold or silver until a time when only a name can get you what you want.
Good morning guys, how are you doing today? I trust that you are having a great day. Welcome to another weekend again. It's to take some rest and prepare for another week.
Allow me do a little recap of yesterday's article. Yesterday, I write about how essential it is to always engage in thanking God at all times, because of all He does. If only you can see how much He does daily for you, you'd know and understand how important it is to thank God.
I'll be writing on a good name, I hope to see where it leads us. But before I continue, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted. You know it's funny that you'll read the article and not thumbs up, even though there's nothing to comment. So, try to do that.

Back to the subject, is a good name really more precious than gold or silver? In my perspective, it is but you know gold and silver are part of what makes a name good. Gold and silver figuratively means 'money'.
Why did I say that gold and silver is used to make a good name?
A good name is made by good deeds that is doing good to people. There are some good things that can only be done with money. I'm sure you agree with me. This is to say that there are some good things that broke people can't do.
Left to me, I'll ask that I be given gold and silver, so that I'll use it to build a good name. Another one is that not all rich people have a good name, examples are the Nigerian politicians, none of them has a good name. They are rich but by illegal means.
There's a limitation to the good you can do when you're broke. You can also build a good name like that, but that name won't be as 'good' as the one with riches.
In our society now, people are not interested in having a good name again. People are consumed with the quest for money. This has pushed many to do so many unspeakable things just so that they'll get money. They believe that once they get money and start doing good, a good name is automatically formed.
The society is known to celebrate the rich even those who manipulated their way there, I'm not saying that every rich person is rich by illegal means. Besides, I'll soon be rich too, the distance between me and my riches is just one milliseconds (in Sam Loco's voice).
My final words is to encourage everyone working legitimately. We'll all get there one day. One of my friends said that "legit is hard' and really it's true. If it was easy, everyone would be reach. People drop by the way but you shouldn't. One day we'll gather together with great number of BCH each and we'll be comfortable and still be able to give out. Don't give up friend, we'll see at the top.
Bye for now and have a great day and weekend ahead.
Thursday 🤔🤔
Good afternoon guys. How are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. We're getting to the end of the year and it's a great one.
One thing I've learnt in the past few days is how much God is faithful. Thanking Him isn't actually enough for all He has done and will do. Also, the spiritual realm has become more real to me than it has ever been. I knew the spiritual realm was real but you know experience is the best teacher. When you experience something, there's nothing anybody will tell you that will make you disbelieve what happened was real.
Something happened this morning but I won't be sharing it now, this is why my article is published a bit late today. But in all, thanks to God.
I actually don't know what to write on today, but I'll try to put something down. Before I continue, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

It feels like the rate at which evill things happen increases as the yeary comes to an end. In Nigeria here, people have termed the last four months of the year as the ember months because they all end with ember.
It's most times characterized with kidnappings, accident and others. I don't know of your country, but I'm sure of mine. The last four months are always characterized with some evil things. It seems like the evil people are trying to round up the year with causing evil to happen.
I've heard some over educated people say that all these spiritual jargons are not true. I laugh when I hear them talk, because it takes just one second for you to know that there's something called spiritual.
I've seen over educated people try to use science and mathematics to explain how and why some things occur. The truth is that they end up saying rubbish alm in the bid to explain the unexplainable.
I believe that not everything is explainable. There are some questions you won't get answers for until you get to the other world, and that's if you're given the privilege to ask.
I know I'm sounding so religious today, but until you're faced with unexplainable things, you will keep thinking religious people are just dumb people.
As the year is coming to end, if you're still in the class of people that thinks that things just happen coincidentally, you'll need to reevaluate that thought process because a day will come when your intelligence won't be an advantage.
I'm still a small boy oh, but I've seen enough to tell you that nothing happens by coincidence.
For example, a 21 storey building under construction in Lagos, Nigeria collapsed. According to reports I heard, the owner was on his way to USA but decided to stop by to check the work going on and during the checking the building collapsed and he died. I know we all fault the builders and engineers. Yes, they're at fault for building a wrong structure but my own question is that what prompted the man to go check the building instead of going to the airport.
Really, there's just one minute between life and death. So you that is still alive should be grateful to God for keeping you in the right place at the right time because if you find yourself in the wrong place, you might not be where you are now.
I'm done for today. Just take time and think of times that God had saved you dangers. Bye for now
My heart
Good morning guys. How are you doing today. I trust that you're having a great day.
The subject of today's discussion will be on the heart. I understand we all know the heart but the heart is both a physical and spiritual part of the body. The heart plays a very vital role in our lives both physically and spiritually. We all know that the day the heart stops working that's the day life seizes to function. Also, the heart also plays a very great role in how far and how great you can become whether physically or spiritually.
I've done quite an introduction to the subject of today, but before I continue, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to the subject of today, the heart. The heart is part of the body that pumps blood to different parts of the body. This is to say that without the heart, a body is lifeless. People with heart issues are mostly with 50:50 life. Therefore, every effort should be made to keep the heart in a good and healthy state. Because failure to do that is like endangering your life.
Above all these, the heart is the part of a human life where thoughts, ideas, concepts, innovation are first conceived. Every thing that is in this world started by any of this means I mentioned in the previous statement. Anyone who will succeed will have to be intentional with his heart such that his heart is censored and guarded with all diligence.
The Bible says " keep thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life"
This is both a command and advice that everyone needs to take seriously. From that verse, we can see that the heart is source or origin of the issues of life.
So everything in the world today can be traced back to having its origin from the heart.
All the problems, wickedness and good things we see in the world today started as thoughts. The first man to commit murder had it as a thought before it became a reality. Also, the man that's involved in charity giving did not just start. It was first a thought in his heart before it became a reality.
Now the instruction in that verse can now make sense to you that out of the heart are all the issues of life.
Keep thy heart with all diligence is a command to everyone that's serious with going far both physically and spiritually. There are so many things that go on in the heart of every man you see anywhere. You really don't want to know what is going on there, because if you're allowed to, you'll be surprised at what you'll see there.
How then can I keep my heart?
To keep your heart, you'll ask yourself the question, how does thoughts get to my heart? Thoughts enter your heart because of the things you watch, read, hear and who you listen to.
The first step to guarding your heart is by culturing and censoring what you allow into your heart through your eyes and ears. You must deliberately culture what you hear and see so that your heart won't be polluted with the wrong things and idealogies.
The second step is by intentionally wading off negative thoughts that try to gain roots in your heart. And the way to do that is by having another thing to think on. Something you can think on is the Word of God. If you can take time to read the Word of God, your heart will be made pure and also you'll something to think on when evil thoughts try to come in.
This is it for today. Bye for now and have a great day.
Sugar and your health
Good morning guys, how are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day.
This morning I'll be writing outside what you've seen me write on before. I'll be going the health way today. My article will be around health. Health is wealth. Even if you get all the money you ever wished for without having sound health to enjoy it, it's most likely a waste because you'll either keep spending the money on treating yourself. Good health can't be underrated because no matter how much vision and goals you have, you'll need your body o be sound and healthy to be able to execute and fulfil the vision.
So what I'll be writing today is something of great value and I trust that you'll find it useful.
Before I go on, I'll like to do some appreciation: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to the subject of the day, I'll be talking about diabetes.
I know that we've all heard about diabetes, infact, some of us knows a person, or knows a person that knows a person that has diabetes. But we don't really understand what it's all about. As much as we all pray for good health, it is of utmost importance that we intentionally and deliberately pay attention to things like this. To the definition, Diabetes is when there's increase in the sugar content in your blood. Diabetes can be self- inflicted that is you are the cause due to your ignorance or negligence to paying attention to your body's health. It's can also be caused by a family trait, that is, it is something common in your family, in this case, you're liable to getting diabetes easily. You'll need to monitor it so closely from a very early age so that you can escape it.
There's a misconception about sugary food and diabetes. People believe that sugary foods are the ones that cause diabetes whereas it isn't true. The truth is that all food after being processed produces a particular amount of sugar. The body need sugar because it's through this sugar we get energy to work. So it doesn't matter whether it is protein, carbohydrates or fats and oil, they all produce sugar. The sugar is passed through the blood to different parts of the body for those parts to function properly.
The problem doesn't just lie with the consumption of food, it's also dependent on whether your body produces enough insulin or is the insulin deficient and not effective enough to do what it's supposed to do which can be caused by maybe your lifestyle and the things you engage in. So it's not really about I don't take sugar or sugary drinks.
How can you diagnose diabetes? There are three ways of diagnosing diabetes. There's the fastened blood sugar, random blood sugar and there's the one called glycocelated haemoglobin (HB1C).
The common one that most people have even at home is the fastened blood sugar. In this type, you're to use a Needle to prick your thumb, then you put the thumb with blood on the strip. This will show you the level of the sugar content in your blood. By this you can determine if it's normal, prediabetes or diabetes. If the result shows that it's prediabetes, there's a next test to be carried out which is to check the sugar level after eating since the initial test was done before you ate any food. The blood level is checked again 2 hours after you eat. If the result after then shows that your body can handle it, you'll be advised to engage in exercises in order to burn the sugar. Also, your diet will be censored in order to curb the situation.
Some of the symptoms of diabetes are;
1. You drink enough water but you still feel thirsty as if you didn't drink water.
2. You're losing weight without even trying to
3. You find yourself peeing more than usual
4. You always feel exhausted no matter how long you sleep
5. Your eyesight seems blurry
6. You get more infections like UTIs
7. You feel hungry or starved even after eating.
This is for today. I hope you learnt a thing or two. Bye and have a great day.
World Sexual Purity Day
Your body is the temple of God. Abstain from sexual immorality. Sex is for marriage.
Good morning guys, how are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. Welcome to Monday, another working day.
Yesterday was a very significant day and I was supposed to write something related to what the day stood for. Yesterday was the World Sexual Purity Day. It's a day where we celebrate sexual purity. We also uphold and create awareness on what sexual purity is all about and the significance of sexual purity.
I was unable to write on that yesterday and that is what I'll be doing this morning. So stay with me, but before I proceed, I'll like to appreciate some people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to the topic of the day, Sexual Purity. What is Sexual Purity? What is so special about Sexual Purity? Is it that significant? Why will someone just write on this kind of topic?
As we go on this journey, you'll see why and how important this subject is to a man's life.
We all know what sex is, so there's no need for definition. But there are terms and conditions as regards to sex. The creator of sex, put in within the confines of heterosexual marriage that's between a male and a female, not male and male or female and female. It's strictly between male and female. Anything beyond this, is called perversion and abomination in the sight of God.
Another emphasis is on marriage, sex outside of the marriage between a man and a female is either called fornication or adultery, which is also a sin and abomination before God. This brings us to sexual purity, this is being sexually pure which is only engaging in sexual activities only within the confines of marriage and nothing else.
Sexual Purity is a command of God to everyone. So this is not for a particular group of people. If you engage in sexual activities outside the confines of marriage, you're committing an abomination. And everything done has repercussions. In school, we were taught some of the consequences which might be contracting sexually transmitted diseases or having unwanted pregnancies. These cn be protected by using condoms but above these consequences are the spiritual repercussions which condoms can't prevent. Sex is like a covenant activity because there always transmission of substances between both parties of which blood is part of. If only you know what makes up your blood, you'll think it's only made of white and red blood cells, of which is not true. The blood is made of greater things, the blood is a means of identification that identifies you as a part of a lineage and in being part, you partake both in the blessings and curses attached to that lineage. So people that engage in sexual immorality, do not go empty handed, they go with the curses of their partner because it's done illegally and the devil doesn't bless, he only curses.
The Bible records that we're bought with a price which is the blood of Jesus and that our body is the temple of God that's to say that we were created to house God in us. But God doesn't live in defiled places, therefore, you're not allowed to defile your body. Sexual immorality is one of the ways to defile the temple of God.
Sexual Purity is very essential to your walk with God because He commands it. Sexual Purity starts with your mind. Because a man out of the good treasure of his heart give good things. You can only exhibit the products of the transaction in your heart.
There are mainly two gates to the heart which are the ears and the eyes. Everything that comes into your heart, comes in through any or both of these channels. The Bible says guard your heart with all diligence. The way to guard it is by censoring what you see, hear and read.
To any fallen soldier here that has fallen at one point, it's not too late to stand up and resume the journey of sexual purity. No matter how many times you've fallen, you have to stand up and lean on the grace of God to keep you. Also, do not tempt yourself, do not lean on your strength. Be like Joseph, he had to flee because of how deceptive the wall of man can be in resisting Sexual immorality. Do not give the devil any space at all. Also, keep praying and trust God for grace to remain on track.
Thanks for reading through. I hope you were blessed. Enjoy your day.
Sunday Sermon
Good morning guys and a happy Sunday to you. Welcome to a new week too. I wish you a great day and a great week ahead.
I love Sundays because it's an opportunity to fellowship with the brethren in the church. Such a blissful moment, where we come together to praise, worship and learn at the feet of Jesus. It's such a great thing to come together to hear what God is saying to us at the moment. God speaks, and it's a thing of fulfilment to have the ability and privilege to bear what God is saying at the moment.
With today being Sunday, it's the Lord's day, and I'll love to share the Word of the Lord with you. I pray He inspires me as I go on. But before I continue, I'll like to thank some special people; Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to my sermon, to make things easy for me, I'll be using the letters of the day SUNDAY to draft out the article (sermon) for today. Also just to announce, I'm a Christian and I'm not apologetic in defending my faith in Christ Jesus at anytime or in any place.
S- So great are the mercies of God, He has preserved you since the beginning of the year till this day. For His mercies endureth forever. He has been the one keeping you and your family since the COVID period even up till now. Is He not merciful. He has been there for you even in times you least expected. He always show up, coming through for you so that you'll not b put to shame.
U- Understand that He has been your umbrella, He has covered you and your with His arms. Understanding is very essential because if you don't understand what God has done for you, you won't be able to fully thank God for all He has done for you. Headache as ordinary you think it's has been the cause of some people's death, but in God's mercy, you've had headache and the it went down. This is enough to thank and praise God for.
N- Now as every other time, is always a perfect time to thank Him. There's no need to postpone it till another time. It is good to always thank God. God is not tired of your praises. If you take 7 days out to thank God, it'll still not be enough and God will not be tired of your Thanksgiving. Therefore, I implore you to deliberately give thanks to God at all times.
D- Depression is not, should not and cannot be the reality of anyone that is given to Thanksgiving. Every time you thank God, you remember all that God has done for you. And as you remember, you'll realise that there's hope for the journey ahead, God that has always showed up for you will continue to. It is not in His character to fail.
A- All things are possible to him who believes. It is possible to misinterprete this verse of the bible. Jesus made that statement, but you can't just believe, your believing is dependent on the object. Your believing here is on the Christ, so that for as many that believe in Christ, all things are possible. As long as the things in question, are in alignment with the will of God. So, you must make sure that the things, you wish for are in line with will of God for you.
Y- Your life will only begin to make meaning when your submit to Christ Jesus. The essence and reason for your being in the world can only be discovered and actualized in and through Christ Jesus.
This is it for today. Enjoy your day.

Words for Peace
Good morning friends, how are you doing today? I trust that you had a good night rest. I also hope you enjoy your weekend also. I know I'm not the only one with loads of work to do today.
Yesterday's article was all about peace. In the article yesterday, I emphasized on the importance of peace individually, in the family, in the society, country and at large the world.
I wrote that peace first starts with you, and that it is only if you're at peace with yourself will you be able to enforce peace into your home. I also wrote about how peace in the home affects the emotional life of the children. I stated in the article that your children will only express what they've seen within the four walls of the home. This makes peace an utmost requirement whichust never be overlooked in a family.
We sure know that it's people that make up the society and this people came from a family. Who these people are in the society is dependent on how and what they've learnt form their individual families. With this understanding, we can see now that the concept of peace must be practiced if we hope for a better future.
The people that make up a family which is the father and mother are both different individuals with different preferences, habits, temperament and disposition. I'm sure you that there'll be times when there'll be misunderstanding and clash of interests. How can peace still be expressed during situations like this? How can peace be achieved when the atmosphere is tense?
This will be the subject of our discussion today, but before that, I'll like to thank some special people.
Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to the questions asked previously, How can peace be achieved when the atmosphere is tense?
Have you seen or witness where two people are involved in an argument which resulted in them being apart for some time? Or even when two people living together are unhappy with themselves, so they just keep to themselves, they prefer not to talk about it. They're waiting for the first person to apologize and this cycle keeps going on for as long as they allow it.
You know, when two people argue, they both have different aims or perspective on the issue affected. It takes someone with good emotional intelligence to understand that one person needs to step down for the other to have his/her way. I believe that if you claim to be the mature one, then you'll allow the other person have his/her way. Arguments no matter how little they seem can cause separation. I've heard of how people keep misunderstandings because of little individual differences which could have been resolved if one of them was mature enough to overlook.
Another one again is when the atmosphere is tense, that is one of the parties is angry, it'll be unwise for the other party to increase the infuriation by speaking abusive or degrading words because this can cause the unthinkable to happen.
In situations where one party is angry or tensed, it's best that you find good and soothing words in order to ease the tension, and if you have no words to speak at that moment, it's best that you keep quiet instead of causing more problems instead of solving.
I think this is all for today, I hope you've got value from this. Have a nice day. Don't forget to learn the art of speaking nice words at all times.
Peace At Home
Good day guys, how are you doing this morning? I trust you had a great night? I did. Welcome to another weekend. It feels like this month is moving so fast again.
I hope you read yesterday's article, of not here's the link to the article: https://read.cash/@Jerrysavage00/suffering-emotionally-49cd89c1
Today I'll be writing on peace at home. But before I continue I'll like to thank some special people. Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Back to the topic of today.
Peace at home is something many people wish to have but not everyone really has peace at home. Some homes are like mini-hell. Fight and misunderstanding are also part of the family. They're even used to shouting at themselves. This should not be but unfortunately this is the reality of some families.
The problem of peace at home first of all starts as an individual problem. Inner peace is something that determines who you are in every expression of life. Who you are at home will determine who you'll be at work, church and even with friends in your social circle. When you already have a conflict with your inner self, it becomes inevitable that you become a person that promotes or cause unrest outside.
As a father or mother, what you express within the four walls of your home is what your children will absorb and ultimately express outside the home. Under your family climate, it is very important to have peace. A peaceful father and a peaceful mother will raise up peaceful children.
For example, we live in a society where everyone is angry on a default, everyone is just tensed up and unnecessarilyean at everyone, this is like a report card of what happens at home. The family is a production house to the society. What you do at home is undoubtedly going to reflect in the society at large. Everyone out there causing the society problems, came out from a family.
As much as desire a better society, we must start by raising up emotionally intelligent children that'll be emotionally matured and intelligent enough to relate with others. When we have at least 90 percent of emotionally intelligent people in the society, the society will be peaceful at large.
How do we go about peace in the family especially in family where both partners have different preferences.
You have to be emotionally intelligent. This consists of how you feel, how your partner feels, what to say when your partner is angry, what to do when the atmosphere is tense, how to react to objections from your partner. Things like this must be deliberately considered. When your partner is angry, there are some words that shouldn't be used at that time because it's more like adding fuel to an already burning house. This will cause more havoc. You should also learn how communicate effectively in such a way that your partner doesn't find it offensive. There's a way you can present an issue that'll resolve it in little time. This is where communication comes in. Communication is very necessary to keep the family peaceful.
When you have children, for there to be peace between you and your child, you'll need to be very flexible and diplomatic. That is, you should be very flexible enough to switch from being a parent to being a friend. You should learn to do this as the situation demands. The teenage years of a child are likely the most tumultuous years where there's bound to be clashes of interest. You have to learn to be flexible. You should learn not to attack the child or else he'll become secretive an dwhen this happens, there's little or nothing you can do about this.
I'll stop here because I don't want this article to be too long.
Have a nice day and a great weekend. Bye for now.

Back to the subject of this article;
1. Lack of self mastery skills: Self mastery is the ability to take control of your own life which consists of your thought process, habits and behaviors. It's a choice, that is, the way you choose to be in the world. The path to self mastery begins with you developing your self awareness. There are some skills you need to learn if you really want to stop your emotional life from suffering.
You need to know things like, what you want, what you don't want, what you stand for and do not stand for? If you don't know things like this, you're in to be pushed here and there by everyone else and at the end, your emotional life gets to suffer the consequences. A quick way to know what you like is by first starting with discovering what you don't like, then you narrow it down to what you like.
2. Suppressing your emotions: Most people like to do this. They keep storing and suppressing their emotions till they find it impossible to suppress again, then they find themselves having emotional outburst. They have no choice but explode at the slightest provocation because of how long they've suppressed their emotions. Sometimes when someone does something bad to you, you're likely to bottle it up and cut the person off mentally, meanwhile the said person might no even be aware that what they did pained you, but you've kept it in and went to vent your anger on another person who's not aware of what happened initially. You need to learn to communicate whenever you have a problem or have an issue with someone instead of keeping it all to yourself. But one thing you should not forget in communicating is that you should learn to do that in love not in hate or anger so that the other party doesn't feel like you hate him/her.
3. Having the wrong mindset: The thing is that our emotions respond to our thoughts, so as long as you have a wrong mindset, your thought also will tend to be wrong which will in turn make your emotions react wrongly. You're supposed to have a mindset of growth. When you habour a disposition of 'this is who I am', 'you have to take me as I am', even when who you are is wrong, you still expect people to flow with you that way, that is a very wrong mindset. You should have a mindset that allows change, flexibility and growth. You need to go through a constant process of unlearning and relearning so that you'll become a better you.
Children and discipline
Good day friends. How are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. I wish you a great day ahead.
Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
Here are my amazing sponsors.
Check them out. You'll love them
This morning I'll be writing on how I think correction is to instilled in a child. Alright I know that we're having a lot of people here on this platform with different cultural and societal values. Some people believe in the use of the cane while some see it as something absurd. Some believe so much in punishment which can be in form of physical punishment or depriving the child of some things for a period of time.
Well, we all have different dispositions to this correction issue. But of course, we know that for every thing in life, there are always extremes which should not be explored by anyone because it's always disastrous. I have seen different people who have gone extreme on this correction matter and they eventually became victims of what they were trying to escape.
There's a level that correction can reach that it'll be termed as violence or even child abuse. Oh yes, I've seen parents who have gone as far as hurting their children with harmful things like hot iron, etc just because of the wrongdoings of a child. I have also seen parents who have gone the extreme of pampering their children so much that the child lacks normal moral values that people have. This makes the child wayward and one it backfires on the parents. We can see now that both extremes are obviously not.
Whether we like it or not, discipline remains a virtue that everyone whether young or old needs to have in his/her life, because this forms the basis of how impactful your life will be. And whether you like it or not, life has a way of teaching you discipline except if you don't really want to be impactful, that's when you'll despise how life teaches you discipline.
To how we can correct children, one thing I've come to realise is that child training is something you do not have opportunity to redo. Because you either pass or fail. Once your child is old enough, you can't get to correct them as you would when they were younger.
A part in the bible says that 'train up a child in the way he should go and when he's old he'll not depart from it'. Obviously, all parents learn on the job, no matter how much you've read about child training, when you have one, you'll understand how much of a work it is. This is not to talk down on reading, it's very important to read on issues like this because no matter what you'll still be better than those who haven't read on it at all.
Children have different ways they react to the different types of corrections. Some children work with when they're yelled at while some don't, no matter how much you yell, it doesn't look like anything happened. Some other children are so fine with just eye contact, ohh, they know how to understand eye movement, such that they correct themselves immediately, but there are some that no matter how much you turn your eyes, roll it, they'll still never understand. While some children work with cane, like the extra stubborn ones, if the cane is not used, they'll never correct themselves. I call them the special children. Some also work with punishment etc.
Personally, I'm a fan of punishment. I can use the cane but I'm more of a punishment person. I like to make pay for foolishness. Now I'll only punish when you either disobey or the child is just outrightly foolish.
We all make mistakes, and it'll be unfair to punish the for all mistakes. But some mistakes are just byproduct of foolishness, while some are byproduct of disobedience. For example, a child that has been corrected about a thing but still does the same mistake againbis simply disobedience, he can blame this on forgetfulness, but it's just because he didn't put his heart to the correction made previously. Therefore, he is to pay for that. While some children are prone to doing foolish things. Okay for example, if you have a baby that is just crawling, and you have a lantern in the house. When you see the baby crawl to the lantern, you carry the baby so that he'll not go there, but some babies will withdraw while some will not. If I was the one, I'll allow the baby touch it and when he touches it and discovers that it's hot, he'll not go there again. Foolishness took him there, but consequence sent him back.
The bible said that foolishness abounds in the heart of a child but the rod of correction drives it far. Rod of correction is relative to what can drive that foolishness far as defined by you. You choose what rod you use. Is it the rod of advice, cane, yelling, eye contact or punishment etc.
Another thing is that the mode of correction should change as the child grows up. You can't correct a teenager the same way you correct a younger child.
I hope to see your opinions in the comments section. Have a nice day
Your advice is needed
Good day friends. How are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. Thanks for accepting my apologies yesterday. I've started visiting other articles already and I hope to get to everything as time goes on.
Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
These are the MVP. Please check them out.
What I'll write on today is both surprising and strange to hear of. The picture below is the full story that led to what I'll write. I saw this on Facebook and obviously so many people gave their opinions. I'll give my opinion and I'll want to hear your opinions as well. So here's the picture.
According to the story, this is the story of two adults who have agreed to get married. And they had a date, where they opened up on secret matters they had not discussed about before.
But surprisingly, it looks like the lady is more wealthy than the guy that is after they both opened up to themselves. And the guy is already becoming insecure.
It's surprising that guys like this exist, but unfortunately they exist. How will a guy make that kind of a demand from a lady he hopes to marry. According to him, a woman is to be under a man by allocating all her assets to the man all because of cultural bias. Culture is a good thing because it distinguishes us from other people, but there are some aspects of culture which is very toxic and backward which needs to be abolished as soon as possible. This and many more are so evident in different African cultures.
When a man is to lead his wife, it's more of a partnership than of a dictatorship regime, where rules are just given without the opinions of the party. It takes both the husband and wife to make a family work. But when the husband assumes the post of a dictator, rebellion becomes a thing that becomes common in that family.
One thing I'm happy about is that they aren't married yet if not it'll be a different ball game entirely.
What would you have done if you were the lady and your husband to be tells you something like this?
Well, if i was the lady, I think we'll need to put an end to that relationship. But you know love is blind 😄😄, also it's easier said than done. But either way, I'll advise that the relationship comes to an end. This is because the guy has a very wrong mindset which takes time to change. Even if she manages to get past this one, there might be clash in the marriage as a result of other issues where the guy's mindset has caused problem or differences to be. Someone with that knid of a faulty mindset should be made to know that he has a very faulty mindset which will continually cause havoc in his life.
If you were the guy and your girlfriend yells you has some assets, what would be your reaction?
As for me, na woman wey get money, I wan dey follow now😄😄. My Nigerian folks will under this better. I'll be one of the happiest people on earth because when my girlfriend has this kind of an asset, it'll make life after marriage easier. At least, the finances aspect of the family would be easily sorted out. Also, the burden upon the husband will be lesser than expected since the wife is rich woman. I don't know about you ohh. I'll even love the woman more. If you like call me gold digger. Na you know.
I'll be expecting your opinions in the comments section.
Thanks to @HappyBoy and @FarmGirlthe sponsorship renewal. I appreciate.
Enjoy your day.
Outpouring: What next?
Good day guys, how are you doing today? Happy Monday to you. I trust that you're having a great day already. I wish a very blissful and productive week ahead.
My article is a bit late today because of my body. I'm actually weak because of the event I wrote about. We finished late in the night. I got home by almost 12am this morning. Anyways, the event went glorious. I hope you streamed online. I really thank God for His mighty avalanche of blessing and grace upon us yesterday. Despite the rain that fell, people still stayed and worshipped God in Spirit and in truth, and God really came through for us. I believe that everyone that came to the event has gone back with the touch of God.
I will be writing today on what should happen after the Outpouring of the Spirit of God.
But before that I'll like to apologize for not being able to visit other articles as I should, also I have not being able to comments on articles as I should. It was due to my busy schedule last week. I promise to make it up. From today, I'll be able to start checking your articles out. Thanks for understanding.
Also, special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
Now, to what I was going to write about. This write-up will be a sequel to yesterday's article. So let's go.
After Jesus resurrected, He told His disciples to stay in Jerusalem till they Holy Spirit is poured upon them. In following up with the instructions of Jesus, they stayed and prayed in Jerusalem until the Holy Spirit came upon all of them and after the Holy Spirit came upon all of them, something happened. Some of us know what happened. When the Holy Spirit came upon them, they were filled and they spoke in other tongues. This made the people around the place they were gathered surprised and they concluded that they were all drunk. After this, one of them preached and 5000 people became converted and became born again. This shows that after the outpouring of the Spirit of God, you should carry the convicting power of the Holy Spirit such that when you preach Christ to others, they'll be cut in the heart and convicted and repent from their former ways.
Another thing that happened after the outpouring was that signs and wonders followed the disciples, such that they prayed on handkerchiefs and those handkerchiefs healed the sick, up to the extent that even the shadow of the apostles caused people to be healed and delivered from their afflictions. This is to show us that after the outpouring of the Spirit of God, there should be evident in our lives, signs and wonders. Such that everyone that meets with should not leave the same way they met us. We should leave people with a deposit of God. Yes I said that. It's very possible. Because everyone that encountered Jesus did not leave the same way they came. And this is the will of God for us, which is to be like Jesus.
So every Christian should earnestly ask for a regular outpouring of the Spirit of God in order to be a witness of Jesus.
And for you that has come to Jesus, why wait. Cone to Him now. Life begins when you know Jesus.
This is the end of the article for today.
Have a nice day and week
The Day of the Outpouring
Good morning guys. Happy Sunday to you. I'm so excited this morning. Today is the day I've been anticipating. Today is the Outpouring day. The program I wrote about. I'm really excited and ready for the move of God today in Lekki, Lagos. I hope to see you there, if you're in Lagos sha, although you can also stream on all social media platform, from Facebook, WhatsApp, Instagram and YouTube. The event starts by 4pm(Nigerian time) today.
I'm not going to write much. I'll be writing using the letters of the outpouring.
O- Our God is a great God and His promises are forever. He never forgets His promises. If He has said it, then He'll do it. In His word, He said that His shall not go unfulfilled. There the promise He made that in the last days, He'll pour out His Spirit upon all flesh will find expression today. Glory!!!
U- Unending rain of revival and blessings will pour upon all who connect to the program both online and on-site today, because my God is God that never fails and also He loves to bless all.
T- The avalanche of God's presence will be so evident and will be felt by every living being that connects. And you know something? Nothing is impossible in His presence. Because all things were created for His pleasure, therefore He can do and undo.
P- Praises and worship will be offered unto God as this is His will for all creature to praise and worship His Holy name. In total reverence and honour of His Majesty. We converge together to praise and worship Him. Hallelujah!!
O- Out of babes and sucklings has He ordained the praises of His name. So the promise and blessings are for everyone. Nobody is left out of this move of the Spirit.
U- Until we're all filled with the power, glory and grace of God, we'll not stop. Until the earth is filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, we'll continue to seek His mighty hand to move upon the earth and we trust that God will move ind such way that has not been experienced on the earth before.
R- Rain of revival, blessings, power and grace will fall upon every soul connected to the program. Such that they'll never be the same. And they'll go in the might of God, proclaiming His glory and goodness to every man, until the whole world is won for God.
I- In rain and in sunshine, in pain and in ease, in wealth and poverty, we'll continue to stay with God because only in Him can the essence of living be discovered and expressed fully. In God will everything find meaning, therefore we come together today o seek for His empowerment and mercy in order to be able to fulfill His ultimate will for the earth.
N- Now is the time, not tomorrow, not next week. Now is the time for the Outpouring of the Spirit of God upon us as we converge to recieve from His bountiful storehouse of power and grace in order to be prosecute His counsel even in this time in the history of this age.

UNTIL THE EARTH BE COVERED WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE GLORY OF THE LORD AS THE WATER COVERS THE SEA.
Happy Sunday.
Reality; consistency
Good morning friends, how are you doing today? I trust that you're having a great day. Today being Saturday is meant to be filled with chores but luckily for me, I'm kinda free because I've done some of them already.
I want to use this opportunity to apologize or not being able to read up articles of others, I've been busy this week. I only struggle to write my article and publish. This is because of the program I talked about which will hold tomorrow. I'm already anticipating the program. It promises to be a great program where the presence of God will be very evident.
I don't have something to write about today actually, I trust that as I continue, something worthwhile will be put down.
Now, there's something I've heard different people talk about consistency as a major thing in achieving success. I fully agree that it's, but being consistent is not an easy thing ohh.
I'm sure some of us here can testify that it's not an easy thing to do. Like to be consistent for a whole year. It'll be very unfair for you to tell people to be consistent at something without telling them how much uneasy it can be sometimes. Motivational speakers most times just motivate people to being consistent without telling them o the times when it'll be hard and most likely impossible to do. They should be free to tell people about the days they decided to read or work in the night but couldn't because they slept off instead making people feel bad of themselves whenever they find themselves in the same position.
To be candid, I've been in situations where I wanted to do a thing like reading but couldn't because I was tired and then I started to blame myself for not being able to achieve my goal. I'm sure we can all relate to this. Let m bring it home, for example, times when you'll determine to write the article for the next day, but you forgot or were too tired and before you knew it, you were asleep. I know we can all relate with this.
For me, I really don't appreciate motivational speakers, they only motivate you to start something without telling you the ordeals of the process involved in doing it. But we'll nobody owes you talk of the process. You'll be the one to determine whether you'll be successful or not.
I don't know if this article will be long or not. But this is me just encouraging anyone out there that is discouraged or about giving up on a particular goal because of the pain and stress the process of achieving that goal is involved with.
I'm her to encourage you that though the process might look like it's taking too much time or it's becoming too tough. You can make it, just a little more push and perseverance. And you'll begin to see the rewards of your efforts.
Rome was not built in a day, so you too won't get to where you're going in a minute as you wish. The process might be filled with sleepless nights, days of hunger not because there's no food but you forgot to eat. I'm here to cheer you up to keep on pushing. It'll be worth it one day. It is very certain. SO don't stop working my friend.
We'll meet at the top✌️✌️
Lest I forget, I'll like to greet some people: Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.

Difficult people; How to cope?
Good morning friends. How are you doing today? I trust you had a great week. Welcome to another weekend. It feels like this month is moving fast. Like, calm down, allow me catch my breath. Well, before you know it now, we'll saying another happy new month. This year has been so fast actually, but thank to God for being there for us all through.
What I'll be writing on today will actually need everyone's input, because I know it affects all of us in one way or the other.
I'll be writing on how to cope with difficult older people.
I know from here you can already relate with what I'm about writing on. You know it is very easy to go about difficult people when they're your mates or friends. But when they're older people, oh God! It becomes a tough one to do, because sometimes you're not able to talk or complain, though it depends on the situation.
One funny but bad thing I've noticed with many older people (I said many not all because there are some that not difficult) is that they believe that because they're older already means that they're wiser than everyone younger than them. Some even find it disrespectful when a younger person tries to talk or provide an advice on a matter. They be like, you were not called to this. It's even worse if they're like 3 or 4 with the same mind there, I bet it with you that you'll leave there very embarrassed because they'll so talk down on you that you might likely begin to feel less of yourself.
I personally cannot cope with someone that's not teachable, I really can't. So if it warrants that I work with such person, it'll take God's grace to help me there, because unteachable people are always unteachable, I mean they like to have everything their own way even if that way won't work. They won't even allow another person advice or talk to them on another way to go about things. Even if they listen, they don't use the advice because they think their way is the best. But you know the funny thing is that they're always wrong 90 percent of the time.
One thing those people don't know is that one man can't know everything. And also what you can't see, another person might be seeing that.
Since we've seen what difficult people look like and I'm sure you can relate with what I've said. How do we now cope with them. I'm going to give my own opinions on how to cope with them with the hope that you'll give us your opinions in the comments section.
1. Keeping quiet: One way I cope with people like that is just to keep quiet and watch them do their thing as long as it doesn't affect me. Because you yourself might be wrong, so that I won't be blamed for the mistake.
2. By talking to another older person or their friends who can talk to them can actually help. Because they might listen to them since they're also older and they'll listen to them. This doesn't always work but sometimes it does.
3. Another way is to escape. Lol. I said what I said. I know how to escape unnecessary problems. Another way is just by escaping.
These are my own opinions. I'll be expecting yours too.

God and His Laws
Good morning friends. How are you doing today? I trust that you're doing well. Weekend is approaching again. Thanks to God for keeping us.
I hope I'm able to write all the articles for this week because of my busy schedule. But I trust God for help and grace.
I'll like to thank some people again:
Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
These are the sponsors I talked about,
They're all amazing people.
Please check out their articles.
Today we'll looking at the subject, the laws of God.
We're all familiar with the laws of God, even if we're not familiar with the laws of God, we have heard that phrase in one place or the other.
From the beginning of the world, when God created man, there was a part of man called the conscience. The conscience of man was the part of man God created to guide man on what is good and what is bad so that even if God didn't spell out that doing something is wrong, the conscience will act like a law enforcement agency to make it known to man that what's he's about to do is wrong.
We all know the story of how man disobeyed God. After the disobedience happened and God came in the cool of the day to commune with man, he hid himself because he had sinned against God and his conscience was making it known to him that his act is sinful, although he said they hid because they were naked, notwithstanding, their conscience was making it known to them that they had sinned God, that was one of the reasons they were afraid because their conscience was already judging them.
After the fall, man was subjected to death, that is to say that anything related to man can be affected by death, and that is very obvious in everything on earth now. People die, plants die, ideas die, virtually everything is made subject to death by the fall of man. The conscience of man was also made subject to death. I'll give an example of how the conscience dies.
I'm sure all of us here has in one way committed a sin. Now, the first time you'd commit that sin, there was something in you that was always against you and always causimg uneasiness in your inside. That is your conscience working as the law enforcement agent. You might struggle to commit that sin the first time but as you commit the sin subsequently, the voice of your conscience reduces gradually until it doesn't convict you of that particular sin again. That's the conscience dying to that sin in your heart. You can continue to commit that sin as long as you wish without feeling any remorse. That is because your conscience is dead to that sin and has no power to convict you again.
Apostle Paul said in one of his epistles that where there's no law, there's no sin. This means that wherever there is no law, I mean that place is lawless, there can't be sin because everyone has limits to why they can do. They can choose to go as far as they can in sin without any remorse because there's no law. But the earth has laws, that is to say that every man on default can distinguish between right and wrong. That was put in man by God, but because of constant sin, the conscience looses it potency of convicting you.
Before the coming of Jesus Christ, God gave the popular 10 commandments to the children of Isreal to guide them in their daily lives and to also cultivate a sane environment where everyone can live without harming the other individual. Some kept the law and as expected some didn't keep it, because all through the old testament part of the bible, it's therqe showing the people that both obeyed and disobeyed the laws.
When Jesus came to the earth, He summarized the 10 commandments into just 2 which were; Love the Lord your God with all your heart and might, and love your neighbor as yourself as the second one.
It's very easy to forget the laws of God such that in the old testament, God told the Isrealites to write on the doorposts, they make chains or wristband that will have the commandments written on them, so that they'll not forget the commandments of God. But there's a new order in the new testament which God has made provided for us to find easier and also so that we'll not have the excuse of forgetting. The new way is that He'll write the laws on our hearts. So that it echoes out from within to always keep us on guard. But this new way is only exclusive to those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and have been redeemed by the blood of Jesus, the promise is only for them. This is to say that if you want to live a life well pleasing in the sight of God, you'll have to believe in Jesus and repent from your bad ways, so that God will have his laws written in on your heart.
By this, you won't forget the laws of God and you'll continually please God.
Have a lovely day.
Thanks so much my boss @Ebiz for the sponsorship. I really appreciate boss. I do not take it for granted boss.
Can You Be Corrected
Good morning friends, How are you doing this morning? I trust that you're feeling good. I wish you an amazing day ahead.
Special thanks to my sponsors both old and the ones planning to, subscribers both old and those that will subscribe now, also thanks to those who thumbs up and comment on my post, I really appreciate all of you, I do not take it for granted.
Please check out my amazing sponsors.
Thanks for doing that.
Today I'm writing on the subject of reproof and correction but what is reproof? and what is correction?
Reproof is defined to be an expression of blame or disapproval while Correction refers to the action or process of correcting or making something right.
From the definitions above, you can already have an understanding of what reproof and correction are. I'll give an example for better understanding, reproof is what your mom does (whichever method she chooses) when do the wrong thing or you make a mistake, while correction is your own positive reaction to the reproof that's by acknowledging and making right whatever wrong or mistake you've made with a sense of remorse in you.
You know that after a reproof has happened, you can choose to either despise the reproof or make a correction. Nobody likes reproof, but at the same time we must learn to receive reproof in humility. Now to create a balance, you can't be liked by everyone, some people are just looking for ways to criticize everything you do, so it'll be wise or you to distinguish between those who're doing it genuinely and those who're criticizing you. Apart from that, there should some people in your life that can reproof you, without you thinking they're are criticizing you. It can be your parents, spiritual heads, mentors etc, the aim is for you to have people that can correct you when necessary. When you're able to distinguish between the ones that reproof you and those that just find joy in criticizing you, you'll do best to just ignore the critique so that you won't be too concerned about unnecessary matters.
When you listen to reproof made by people who really matter and make corrections, there are so many benefits. And also if you despise, there are also disadvantages that follow too
1. You make progress in that particular area. Whenever you accept reproof and correct the mistakes made, you move forward and you'll see that you don't make that same mistake again but if you despise the reproof, and you do not make the necessary correction, you'll find yourself making the same mistakes over and over again. There's a saying that goes like this; you shouldn't expect a different result while using the same methods. And this is so true because if you keep on that path of yours, you'll keep on making mistakes and there'll be no progress.
2. The damage the mistake would have caused will be reduced or even escaped. When you accept reproof and make corrections, the damage the mistakes would have caused will be reduced or even escaped just because you made correction. But if you despise the reproof, it's so certain that the damage that should occur will work fully until you accept and make necessary corrections.
3. You encourage them to even correct you more in subsequent times. When you listen to the reproof of people and make corrections, they'll be encouraged and motivated to correct you subsequently whenever need be because they know you'll take the correction. But when they know you'll not take the correction, they keep quiet and can even watch you till you ruin yourself because they know that even if they talk, you'd despise them and not even mind them.
4. The number of mistakes you make will have reduced. You know when you take correction from others, the number of mistakes you make will reduce because, you'll be gaining experience on how to do things, that is the mistakes that would have occured after the first mistake will be averted already. But if you despise the correction, the subsequent mistakes you'll make are innumerable because there'll be no one to even caution or correct you.
5. You'll be able to correct others. It is only someone that takes correction that'll be able to correct others making mistakes. Because you won't even be bold enough to correct others because you too don't listen to others. Besides, you can only correct others when you don't have mistakes and damages you're trying to correct.
Thanks for staying till this moment. Have a wonderful day
