WORD Quotes for this Week

By -

The WORD Quotes today is credited to a colleague of mine, Jioke Snipes Ekems.

The Quotes:

• If You try to resist the devil before submitting to God, You will lose.

• The walls of satan can be so subtle. You miss one prayer at a time. Your prayer alter dies slowly. When he hits, it looks as if it was sudden. Satan is powerless but not stupid.

• There is no much difference between the one doing the preaching and the one taking the notes. They both face the same challenges.

• God's blessing may not follow protocol. So don't expect God to take a particular route. He can bless you from any angle.

• Everything God put inside of You will not be used in heaven. Use it here on earth. Die empty.

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...

Do not excuse failure for any reason

"Do not Excuse Failure, for any reason on any account" – Cobhams Asuguo. "I was born blind. No one else among my six siblings is blind. There was no cause for my blindness. No explanation. Doctors just said to my parent that I cannot see with my eyes. And since I’ve never experienced sight, and my mum won’t stop sending me on normal errands, I wasn't aware that I was without sight. So, as a young boy, I indulged in everything. I ran everywhere. I ran into walls and furniture. Ran into people. Jumped over gutters. Played hard and fought even harder to the extent that onlookers will shake their head and say in Pidgin English: 'Person wey we dey feel sorry for, e no dey feel sorry for himself.' But I never mind because I didn't understand what the pity was all about. But as I grew older and I gained more understanding of the intricacies of living as a sightless person in a world designed for sighted people, I was faced with the looming possibility of failu...

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...

Your personal health and fitness is essential!

By -

"I am as passionate about personal health and fitness as I am about financial health. I believe your health is your most prized possession. It amazes me how many people pay no attention to their health. ... You know what you’re supposed to eat. We all do. Fresh fruits and vegetables, complex carbs, salads, whole foods, lean meats, more fish and poultry than beef... You know it, I know it, we all know it. So why do so many of us still go out and chow down cheeseburgers and fries every day? I’ll tell you why: because it won’t kill us. Not today. If you ate a cheeseburger and immediately suffered a near-fatal heart attack, would you ever go near a cheeseburger again? I doubt it. It may take twenty or thirty years, but when you add up the compounded interest on all that high-fat, artery-clogging dietary mayhem, eventually your poor overworked heart just quits, stops dead. And so do you. It has been said that we dig our graves with our teeth. It’s easy to ea...

Write to us through our e-mail: plusliferelationship@gmail.com CR7 is a Portuguese and Real Madrid player, born in 1985 (32 years old). He is regarded by many as one of the best players of all time in football. He is currently the world's highest paid athlete. A lot of us knows how popular he is, how much trophies he has won for both clubs and his country, and individual awards he has achieved. One special thing about him is his hunger for scoring and winning, and his great talent in scoring goals. It sometimes makes one feels it's just too natural with him to find the back on net on almost every occasion, even in his current age, when most players would be losing their touch gradually. I won't share his numerous achievements here, I just want to point out the lessons from his Success. One may feel CR7 was just born a Star and he's had...

This Door

By -
Image
This morning (on the day this was originally written), I and mum had a good mom-to-son discussion. I was listening to Tim Godfrey's 'Gbemisoke', with my earpiece tightly clung to my ears. The instrumental portion of the song forced me to dance along the rhythmic steps with a great fervour. Actually, the earpiece was already half-dead, and wouldn't be accepted by a layman even if gifted. I wasn't ready to buy a new one. I danced so passionately that my mum couldn't help but laugh. And suddenly, the song abruptly stopped. I wondered why it stopped. Later, I found out that the earpiece died itself. It was time to have it thrown out. My mum laughed at me. Then she said something that triggered a discussion. "Olorun moomo je ki earpiece yii baje, ki o le ramin" (God has deliberately allowed this earpiece to spoil, so you'd buy a new one." Then she said further, "When God closes a door, He opens another. Go and buy a new earpiece." Th...

Real wealth comes through solving problems

By -

I'm not certain of the actual writer of this, but I think it's worth sharing on this space. Thumbs up to the Writer! ----- The major secret of billionaires is their ability to find solutions to the challenges of humanity. All of them created solutions that brought the billions. Presently, Bill Gates is spending millions of dollars in search of renewable energy. By the time he finds one and become a major player in the electricity industry, we will say he is lucky. But we forget that he didn't pray for financial breakthrough, he only found a solution to a global problem. Wealthy people don't necessarily look for money, they create solutions, and money will follow them! Larry Page and Sergey Brin went all out to help humanity find things faster on the internet, and billions of dollars followed them. Mark Zuckerberg created platforms for socialization, and over $71 billion followed him. Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak went all out to reduce the size of computer. What ...

How You treat people reflects how You treat your soul

By -
Image
The way you treat people is a direct reflection of the way you treat your soul. The way you feel about someone tells more about you than about the person you are judging because the feelings are triggered within you and not from the external person. I am not who you think I am; You are who You think I am. We are all mirror reflections of each other. Everybody we meet along this journey of life has come to teach us some deep lessons. The friends that bring you intense pain are your true spiritual teachers and you should be eternally grateful for them. They expose those parts of you that need healing and growth; without them, we can't evolve. Most of us still have a lot of self loving and internal healing to do. Everyone seems to be severely damaged. You won't appreciate the suffering of others if you are yet to reconcile with your own internal injuries. It is only people who recognise the goodness in themselves that have the audacity to believe that everybody can be good. As wit...
