Let's Talk About FWPs.

                       Source:https://images.app.goo.gl/msyNmHPBYtn2P2678 Do you feel frustrated because you can't find your keys? You remember leaving them on the table but it's just not there anymore. Do you think the weather is too hot and too cold and the same time? When you have the blanket on, it's too hot but when you take it away, it's just too cold. Were you gifted a car.. Any type of car - but you are feeling frustrated that it wasn't the benz you asked for? Do you feel like destroying the TV simply because the remote isn't working? Do you feel like it's not fair for apple to keep producing new iPhones when you haven't enjoyed the last one you bought, now you have to get the latest? Are you really angry that the network is soooooo slow that you feel like leaving Earth to Mars? -There could be better network there, who knows. Are you so pissed off because the wire of your ear piece keeps tangling and no matter how many times yo

Aren't You Selfish?

                                    Source: https://images.app.goo.gl/yo41UjzyTPzfNeRS8 That moment when you are contemplating doing something, say for instance buying an article but it's really expensive so you are trying to figure out if it is really worth it and then a friend comes by and tells you that they bought the same material of a lower quality than yours for twice the amount you are considering. Isn't it funny that at that point you quickly buy that material with a slight feeling of happiness because of your friend's misfortune.  Another scenario is when you just bought something for a rather outrageous price but because you know it's very important it didn't hurt so much. The moment your friend tells you she got the same thing for free, it just begins to feel like a big balloon of jealousy mixed with anger and ganished with pain is amount to burst up I'm your heart.  I know it's funny but is that not how witchcraft is identified? 

How Comfortable Would You Want Your Shoes To Be?

I have this habit of buying oversized shoes. This is not because I like them big but because I want to be comfortable walking around in my shoes.  A size below is usually way too tight, the right size is good but it still hurt my toes and a size bigger is just too big. I rarely wear high heeled shoes, only on special occasions and for the same reason -comfort on my feet.  I didn't realize how ugly I looked on my feet till my friends brought my attention to it, they always said my feet looked like they were running away from me because they are way too long or they would say if someone saw me coming from a distance, they would first see my feet before they saw me. The funny thing is that I only buy shoes a size bigger than my original size why would I be looking that ridiculous then?    One day, I bought a shoe exactly my size. I didn't buy it because I felt like turning a new leaf but because I loved the design and they didn't have a bigger size. When I first wo

Are you really Honest?

  The value of honesty can never be over rated.  Often times, we lie and ask God to bless the lie. Some lies are considered small and insignificant, some are called "white ", some are said to save ourselves from a particular situation and some others are said in the form of a joke but often times we tend to ignore who is on the other side of our lies, what does the person's impression of us become, would the person over look it since it's a joke, would the person take it to heart wondering why we had to lie in the first place. Actually, honesty mustn't be reflected in what we say, it can also be in how we say it and in what we do. Sometimes we wonder why exam malpractice is not allowed, this is because it's actually lie on our actually abilities. Honesty can also be reflected in how we take care of things put in our care, do we hoard resources and present a dishonest report, do we exaggerate our actually abilities to make our presentation more appe

Good but not Good for Me

          Source:https://images.app.goo.gl/Tr8DA5gJQtHhKJD27     "He is such a nice person, but I feel like I shouldn't be dating him" .     Sometimes, some of us make this statement or know someone who has made this kind of statement. It could be the other way around, "she is great but I don't feel anything for her".      A lot of people are in relationships with people they consider as being nice, kind or show some interest in them but somehow some people don't know when the line is drawn between being good and being good for someonesomeone, these are entirely two different things. Someone might be so caring but they don't speak your love language, they might be so generous but you keep questioning why you are with them in a relationship, you keep looking for ways to leave the relationship because it doesn't feel right but then you don't know how to leave because the said people are just so good that you can't even come up wi

When in Shanghai

A lot of stories have been said about this place, from being the hub of foreigners in China, with a very beautiful environment, to being one the most expensive places to live in China and so on.  It all made my longing to visit this place really high so when I saw an opportunity to, it was only natural to take it.  From the moment I commenced my trip to the day I got back to my city had me filled with a feeling of ecstasy not because of the city of Shanghai or what I found therein but because of those I travelled with.  Really great people whose ideas are not just interesting but informative, every argument made sense, every moment spent with them just felt like the right thing to do. I laughed so hard at their many jokes, the walks, the complaints, the search for our way around, even the confusion was just incredible.  It doesn't matter where you go to in life or what you get to do, the important thing is who you get to go there with and what you get to do with them th

The Relationship between Marriage and Respect

Hey guys , my friend sent this to me and though I find it really hilarious, it's completely ridiculous. read up and share your thoughts in the comment section, I would like to know what you think.       "Today at school,I went to get my monthly clearance form from the headmaster, it happened that I entered with three other fellow corps members. The headmaster unfortunately has just one form left and asked someone go make photocopies. One was with a child The other has a ring( wedding ring or engagement ring,I didn't bother looking) The last, quite chubby and bigger than me in looks I was busy with my phone,my head down when I heard ' ocha go and make photocopies. I turned with that look like ' Are you talking to me, me? They chorused  yes,you I asked why, like why should I be the one to go make photocopies for you guys. Unbelievably they said' I buro nwunye oga(you ain't married or with a child) I shook!😳 I was like wow! They chorused yes now

Let's talk about EVANGELISM

Source: https://images.app.goo.gl/16C3diyH5WHMsYxb9       I don't know for you all but I've always thought the idea of evangelism is to go into the world,  preach to people, get them to believe in Jesus Christ and then add them into the church. Well, I was taught a better approach to evangelism, which is going into the world and make disciples of all nations but instead of just adding to the church population, train them to also go into the world and make more disciples, this way, the chain of dissemination of the Gospel just like a tree with many branches, is well spread, reaching out to all corners of the world and very fast too.      The essence of this is not because it is a command but a call to help save the lost who in most cases don't know they are lost especially in this our generation.     It would be difficult of course, you would get rejected or laughed at but hey, count it all joy that you suffer persecution for Christ's sake 😉.        It might n

加油!!

                                            加油- pronounced as "Jia you " a Chinese word which translates as "add oil " but literally means "more grease (to your elbow) " , is a word used to give encouragement to people dealing with challenges.       Living in a world where no one really cares about how much effort you put to achieve success but are only concerned with whether or not you were able to be successful, self encouragement is inevitable. When you are the only one that sees that light at the end of the tunnel, though  it seems you aren't even sure if the light is still there because everyday brings new frustrations, heart aches and stress but you are the only one who can really believe in you especially when no one does. You are your only fan.      Some people on the other hand are lucky enough to be surrounded by those who trust in them even more than they trust in themselves, people that see the bigger picture, the hidden potential a

Listen

                                      Source: https://images.app.goo.gl/bCQRQScwwwpThJDw7         Hi people, you remember the saying when you point at someone with your index finger, the three other fingers point back at you.  Well, sometimes we don't actually point with our fingers but with our minds and the other three fingers that point back happen to be our conscience, that still small voice that keeps saying "who are you to judge, do you think you're better?  First remove the plank from your eyes before you tell someone to remove the speck from theirs " and so on .     Listening to that still small voice can reduce so much hate and judging in the world, it could even go as far as making you a better person if you choose to treat your issue first before you begin to treat that of others, so while you are busy picking someone's errors, do well to listen to your heart, not just listen, understand what you need to do and act on it. 😉

The Change Process

An article by my friend Elele, U.A.  Enjoy... 2018 will be better for those that cooperate with God. It is simply one second after 11:59 pm on December 31. A new sun doesn’t appear. No star drops. Rain doesn't fall for a second and go. Some people simply jump because they can now flip their calendar. They believe that because they call it "new" that it will become "new". But just like no star falls, nothing really happens. It is only a continuation of the previous day. If you decided to change somewhere in August, your life would have been better in August; same for September and November. It is the decision/willingness to change that really makes people better. And this decision can be taken anytime. A lot are in church now; others are waiting for "some words" to glue to their bibles, doors, and cars, a lot have oil applied to their faces. I remember how many wishes I got during my Matriculation. Everyone was happy, but few came around
