Looking Inwards

Counseling Session:

ME: So if I got you correctly, you have been in 6 different relationships in the space of 1 year?

HER: Yes.

ME: And ALL the young men you dated had one thing in common, right?

HER: Yes, that's what I said.

ME: And that one thing is?

HER: It's quite amazing and annoying, they ALL turned out to be complete Idiots.

ME: Hmmm, interesting. Do you know something else they all amazingly had in common?

HER: No, Please, do tell.

ME: YOU

Sometimes, the problem begins with the man in the mirror!

Salvation is not based on fear

By -

If you received Salvation because of fear for hell, then that's not Real Salvation. Salvation is not based on fear, but on faith that comes from love for Christ's finished work on the cross. Step up, start loving Jesus Christ to experience the true essence of salvation. Love for Jesus exposes and reveals the real purpose of salvation. You can't walk in certain provisions of salvation if yours is still based on fear. Raphael Donanu

Suffering and Your Life

By -
Image
Many people expect life to be easy. Even as a Christian, there is no crown without a cross. Many people wish they can just wish suffering away, deny it exists or drink it away. Suffering is how the spirit of man grows, how it learns to discipline itself from the incessant demands of the wayward flesh. Suffering people are growing people. But does that mean we should desire suffering? No, we should not desire suffering but neither should we resist it. Because what we resist persists. We should not try to hide from suffering. Like a bully, we stand up to it, pull it in the beard and find out that it was just an attachment meant to scare us. Suffering is not bad in itself and will only cease when you have learned your lesson from it. Adversity is the road map to prosperity just as failure is the step stones to Success. Shakespeare wrote "Sweet are the uses of adversity, which like the toad, ugly and venomous, wears yet a pre-jewel in its head." If you want to increase y...

Should an Employee seek to grow his passion?

By -
Image
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...

Self Righteousness

By -
Image
We're all guilty of it. Most times, the degree in which we manifest it only varies. An unsubmissive wife feels she's better than her unloving husband. God understands. An unloving husband feels he's better than his unsubmissive wife. God understands. The pulpit minister feels he's more into God and the ministry than the marketplace minister. The marketplace minister considers himself more honourable than the pulpit minister. She that wears trousers or uses jewelries feels she's a more enlightened Christian. She that does not considers herself more spiritual. "Well, I'm not saying I'm perfect, but some people are just impossible..." we would say. We're not perfect but would sit in judgement over another who isn't, too... Because our imperfection is of a different kind, we feel justified and fit to be the judge of another... We're so quick to talk about what that pastor said, what that leader did, what that politician said, and wha...

Tithing (by Olulade Ebenezer)

By -
Image
There has been a lot of controversy with regards to tithing, just recently. I happen to come across Olulade Ebenezer's posts on this subject, and I'll be sharing the posts today. ----- I have been reading and seeking to breathe from the cloud of words on the subject of Tithing. My timeline contains no other posts these days...not even on Salvation or Faith. I've come to accept the metamorphosis the Church must compulsorily undergo. It is ugly at this stage. My posts are precious to me and I would like them to contain views I have concretized. And here are a few. Does God really care what particular percentage I give to him? No. The money I divide into ten and drop in a box for the church; is it different from those who don't actually calculate but give a tenth mindlessly on one random Sunday? No. Matthew 23:23 was not Jesus' instruction to Christians to tithe. He was rather making a comparison regarding Kingdom values between Tithing and the ranks of Judgment,...

Love has no logic, it is blind to logic

By -
Image
Love originates from the soul and can only be given, felt, received and appreciated by the soul. Love is our essence, love is wisdom, and love is a spiritual concept. If God is love and God is a spirit, then love must be a spirit and loving must thus be a spiritual activity at its core. We find it impossible to love because we live from the mind. The mind functions on logic and reason but love has no reason or logic to it, that's why true love is inexpiable and most times seems like foolishness to people of the world. The mind is continually seeking for a reason to love and it has criteria for qualifying and disqualifying people for love. True love is blind to such logic because you don't need a reason to love anybody; you love because it is natural to do so. When we use our mind to qualify and quantify love, we will end up in suspicion and mistrust. Unconsciousness is when our mind controls our behaviour but consciousness is when our soul observes and controls our mind. Only p...

We once heard that the Television was the devil's box

By -
Image
Passing by a church over the weekend, my thoughts revolved about a noticeable trend that have stayed in Nigeria, I believe for about a decade or so. You must have observed same. Churches in recent years now use Religious broadcasting (which is broadcasting by religious organizations, usually with a religious message) to conduct LIVE services. So, a head quarter church in any part of the country can easily broadcast to any of their satellite churches, and you see people in this satellite churches agreeing and seeing visible results. Several years ago, people will never try that. They will wonder why you should be looking at somebody in a box, and be dancing, singing and even believe same for miracles. What foolishness? The television was named the devil's box by some sect. Today, the story now is different, even though some people are still holding on to that. In fact, I saw a comic image yesterday which showed some people at heaven's gate and they were told they will have ...

Why do People think that Introverts are Rude or Arrogant?

By -
Image
Myth #1 – Introverts don’t like to talk. This is not true. Introverts just don’t talk unless they have something to say. They hate small talk. Get an introvert talking about something they are interested in, and they won’t shut up for days. Myth #2 – Introverts are shy. Shyness has nothing to do with being an Introvert. Introverts are not necessarily afraid of people. What they need is a reason to interact. They don’t interact for the sake of interacting. If you want to talk to an Introvert, just start talking. Don’t worry about being polite. Myth #3 – Introverts are rude. Introverts often don’t see a reason for beating around the bush with social pleasantries. They want everyone to just be real and honest. Unfortunately, this is not acceptable in most settings, so Introverts can feel a lot of pressure to fit in, which they find exhausting. Myth #4 – Introverts don’t like people. On the contrary, Introverts intensely value the few friends they have. They can count their close fr...

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...
