The Power of Love

Yes they're "sinners" but who gave you the mandate to hate on them? It's funny to me the way so called Christians allow themselves to be filled with so much hatred for people they consider "sinners".  It's only sin God asked us to hate.   I'd share the testimony of a ex-suicidal, gay and crossdressing guy who received the peace of God because 2 Christians refused to HATE him. He was anticipating their hate but they showed him love! And that was it, the turning point. Mr. X was born into a Christian family but unfortunately, he was raped by a pedophile when he was young and that experienced traumatised him for years.  The experience made him feel so worthless, he felt less of a man. He started doing drugs, wearing make up and female clothing because he thought he could find some sort of joy there.  He was empty and desperate for anything that could feel him with a sense of purpose. He was hurting and couldn't enjoy peace. His parents sent him out ...

I have Proof

I have proof that there's no need to worry about anything. I have proof that God has given us everything we need to live a happy life. I have proof that God gives us everything that is essential to the fulfilment of our purpose. Before I show you my proof. Let me ask, why are you sad, worried and depression? I'm sure your answer probably sounds like "because I DON'T HAVE..."  It's the things we don't have that cause us sadness the most. The things "God hasn't given us" that cause most of us to become depressed.  We somehow have this ideology that our happiness, joy and fulfilment in life is dependent on the acquisition of things that we don't already possess.  "Once I get that degree, I'll be happy and get a good job" We get the degree, only to find out that it doesn't guarantee a good job. We are disappointed but we fail to learn, so we begin the cycle all over.  The next phase might be, "once I get a good job, I...

Nothing is worth your peace of mind.

Nothing is worth your peace of mind.  There's a big difference between working hard to achieve God's purpose for your life AND   labouring for things that are of value,  but not to your life.  You know you don't really need it but because everyone is getting that particular thing, you wanna join them. If you can be sincere to yourself, you'll have more peace. It is pursuing God's purpose for our lives that'll give us the strength to carry on in difficult times.  Whatever God's hands is in,  always get accomplished. He's not confused like us, he finishes whatever He starts in a person's life. But if you decide to follow "trend" instead of God, OYO lo wa o!  Trend doesn't last for long, it's finite,  it has an end. It changes. So while getting an IPhone X was the trend at a time, they brought another one, and I Neva even buy IPhone 1 sef for this lifeπŸ˜‚.   You can't live your life based on trends. If you try to, you'll never b...

Rat Race

  Pre-varsity -  I wanted to go to Oxford or Cambridge university πŸ˜‚. I was so naive and obsessed. Well we know how that turned out.    Undergraduate I was still nursing the idea of leaving - but maybe not Oxford again πŸ˜‚. I wrote to schools, got brochures-hard and soft copies.  I wasn't happy with the school I was in, I needed to leave. I was prepared to leave even at my penultimate year. But I stayed. NYSC - I heard you had to get "certifications" from CIPM, NIM, ICAN, HSE, PMP... to be a "perfect candidate". So I got in the race,  I was crazily obsessed. I was in the race to just win, no idea what I really needed the trophy for. There was the other lane for an MSc too. Who was I not to get into that too? Heard it gives you a better advantage in the society, so they said.🀦🏾‍♀️πŸ˜‚ I worked little and obsessed more on that. Spent that period just worrying and gazing at the next phase, barely noticing the beauty of the present. Postgrad I'm barely halfway i...

Update Yourself

Don't get so invested and carried away by 'work' that you forget to invest in yourself. If you are relieved of your present position today, will your present skills be sufficient enough to empower you either as an employer or employee? As a business manager, have you acquired the latest skills in managing your organisation's resources? You might say, "I have experience in this! Do u know how many years I've worked in this position?! I don't need any skill because my experience is enough!" Experience is good, but it is in the past. Your experience with Windows 97 will not make you function well in the era of Windows 10. You need up-to-date skills in order to be relevant in this dynamic age.
