Graced!

By -

Grace is mostly defined or termed as unmerited favour.

We all have experienced God's grace, either directly (personally) or indirectly (testiomonies from other people).

No matter the way or how that experience of grace (unmerited favour) happened. ONE thing was evident; 'It could only be God'

When we are faced with challenges and your faith is dwindling, just remember that grace experience and be assured that if He did it before, He will do it again.

For His thought towards us are that of Good and not of evil to give us an expected end.
Be expentant because He is your father.

Believe!

I Conquered Masturbation, You Can too!

By -

I started masturbating when I was exactly 14 years old. It was such an experience I never believed I could break off from. I grew up in a 'ghetto-like' place, which exposed me to different kinds of persons and experience. I had to run errands for my Grandmother and in the process, stumbled on neighbours watching movies with Adult content and sometimes saw some of them in the act, and because they felt that I was a small boy, the girls either didn't bother to cover themselves leaving their bodies bare as they attended to me, or continued in the act and never cared to pay attention to who it was that was around. Some of the ladies around who were not married would then touch my private part and tell me things they would have done with me if I was older. These were seeds that were being sown in my mind, and unknown to me that it would later lead me into a deep mess. The kind of friends I had both in school and home were those from the privileged class who had access to th...

Why Salt kills earthworms?

By -
Image
A lot of us have become used to using salt to kill earthworms when we encounter any in our houses. I've thought about this for a while now, but I recently decided to check it up and I'll share what I learnt about the science. Before that, I'll share some points about earthworms: - They are in the lumbricus genus, there are various species of earthworms, but the common earthworm's scientific name is lumbricus terrestris - Their digestive system runs through the length of their skin - Earthworms respire through their skin - They are hermaphrodites (each one carries both male and female sex organs) - They lack either an internal skeleton or exoskeleton , but maintain their structure with fluid-filled coelom chambers that function as a hydrostatic skeleton. Okay, let's talk about salt and earthworms: Earthworms respire and secrete mucus through their skins. Salt (sodium chloride) has the ability of absorbing moisture (desiccant). When a large quantity of salt i...

Being Spontaneous

By -
Image
Have you ever sat down, and just suddenly realized that the best moments and memories in life are usually spontaneous and never planned or premeditated? Whatever you do, give space for spontaneousness. Don't just live by the book - rigid, one way street life. In your relationship, be spontaneous; do things for and with your spouse on the spur of the moment, and see true beauty, romance and laughter come to reside with you and your household. Nothing kills relationships like routine, and timetable for everything. I mean, sex by timetable, outings embarked on strictly by timetable, everything predictable, everything mechanical, robotic laidis.. God forbid bad thing for you, my friend. Surprise your spouse very often, let there be that anticipation, excitement, that feeling of waiting for your surprise gift, surprise treat, not knowing what you will come up with next; knowing that with you, anything can happen anytime. Give in to sudden ideas, sudden suggestions as the spirit of th...

The Betrayal – A Short Story

By -

(Part 1) "I think my husband is cheating on me" Eukera informs her baby Sister. "How do you know, or did he confess this himself?" Esther asks as she returns to the sitting room with a tray containing fruits.. She always entertains her Sister this way. "I know it, I'm not a baby you know. I will find that lady who has the guts to go out with my husband, and when I do.. Oh Lord, Oh Jehovah, She will regret ever being born", Eukera answers as she bites into an apple she had just taken off the tray her sister had brought. "I will recommend you do not conclude based on just a hunch. If he is really cheating on you, we will find out one day. I personally will get him arrested and dealt with. As for the lady, let me not even say anything". "Hahahaha, I trust you, but that won't be necessary. I can handle this. Thanks Sis". Just then, Eukera's phone rings. It's a call from her office. She grabs another apple, hurriedly g...

Principle versus Formula

By -
Image
Productivity is better than Activity and Principle is better than formula. Principles will birth productivity whereas Formulas will only produce activity. For example, It is possible to sleep four hours a day and achieve significantly less than someone who sleeps eight hours a day, while claiming anybody that sleeps above four hours is lazy. When it comes to success, there might be principles but not formulas (I mean mindless copying). Some people just copy too much, not seeing that a lot of factors are involved. The most important thing is to learn the principles and tailor it to your unique situation. Make your work time count. I remember students back in school who claimed to be reading all night (and they were) but had little or nothing to show in their result and there were others who never went through that stress and made straight A's. It is good to look out for working formulas but it's more important to know what works for you and so you can manipulate the formula...

Success Story: How I went from a CGPA of 2.29 to 4.00 within a Semester

By -

This is a Success Story shared by Olusola O'sola Fapohunda, a graduate of the Federal University of Technology, Akure. ----- In early 2010, I went with about four other guys in my department - to visit our level registration officer. We wanted to check our result. Each one of us, was with a paper and a pen. The lecturer in charge asked for our matriculation numbers and one after the other, he was reeling off grades, GPA and CGPA. He eventually got to me and I heard a digit that sounded like I've been shot. God! Me! 2.29. I've earned myself Grade E in some three unit courses and my best course was APH301, which I had a B with a score of 69. About six months later, I went to check my 300 level second semester result and I now had a CGPA of 4.00. That was the happiest day of my University education. I was rolling on the floor of the room. The previous semester has been hell, yet the one that followed it yielded this awesome result! What did I do? What did I change? What s...

Everybody Wants, Everybody Needs

Based on Love languages by Gary Chapman, the Love language of Giving and Receiving Gifts; there are Two Types of Spouses; 1. Husbands or Wives who on their way back home or from a Journey will always buy suya, fruits, ice cream, cake, drinks, boiled or roasted corn, sweet mouth, chop chop, the sorts; to give and enjoy with their partners, or flowers, clothing items, stockings, ties, slippers, teddy bears, belts, anything buy-able and give-able to give to their spouse. Basically, this kind of spouse likes to give, and give, and give. They love to shower their beloved with anything and everything they can buy or create. They give irrespective of how much they earn, giving according to their pocket but giving nonetheless. Musa Gift (MG) 2. Spouses who don't have giving in their nature, maybe due to stinginess, ignorance or as I just said, nature. While some husbands believe that after giving madam pocket money or after allocating household funds; or with the fact that...

Should an Employee seek to grow his passion?

By -

This is a question that has generated a lot of conversation and brought diverse responses. Should an employee seek to pursue his or her passion? When is the right time? How do I make time to pursue it and make it profitable? Questions like these have lingered in the hearts of employees. With the uncertainties at some work place, the satisfaction derived from your heart's call and the fear of regret at the twilight of life. These and many more have pushed many out of their comfort zone to run their dreams and same time, the demands have made much more cower and stay in their comfort zone, drained of life - dying daily. Am I saying you quit your job to chase your passion? Of course not a decision to be made in the spur of the moment. You just must start small and take little steps towards them. I don't want to use my experience to explain this but let me share a friend's. I met him at a wedding over three years ago, we were groomsmen to our mutual friend and from the...

Value yourself more, be less dependent on things and other persons

By -
Image
Dear Lady, please be useful in life. Serve God, get busy, improve your talents, acquire a skill, go to school if you get the opportunity to. Don't let yourself be dependent on people or things. What will happen to you when those people or things are no longer there? You will be stuck, frustrated, suicidal and you might decide to wallow in the chaos because your life has been spent dependent on things and people. Learn to be happy, because only a lady who loves herself and is happy can actually spread love and happiness as You can't give what you don't have. Improve on all the God given gifts and talents that you've got. The gift of a man (woman) maketh a room for him (her). Don't let anyone make you dump your life and live a wasted life.
