What do you have in your hands?

By -
Have you ever given someone a gift that they don’t care about or won’t use? You must think they are ungrateful, especially if it's a gift that's expensive and important to the service of others.

Do you think God could "feel" the same way about the talents he has endowed you with?

Do you think you could have been depriving someone out there the privilege of being blessed by your service to humanity?

If you're culpable; you've probably ignored your talent — your God given gift to humanity.

To ignore your talent, is to ignore God in your life and deprive many others the gift of God in you. He made us that way — He has equiped us for what we are suited for with a great calling to serve humanity.

It is never too late to discover what talents you have and develop them. The development of your talent is too important to be left to chance. Invest time, energy, and money to fan your talent into raging flame that transforms the world.

Play that piece, sing and the world will listen, listen and a soul will find peace, organize that group and many will benefit. Share your talent. You, your family, your community and the world will be a better place because you did — the world needs your talents.

Your friend,
SA.

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

Life Lessons from the Clock

Photo credit: Wikipedia Staring at my clock one sunny afternoon at home, I began to notice some unique features of the clock which could also help imbibe in us important life lessons which when practiced will enable us get to the peak of success in our various endeavors. Let us take a look at these features; 1. Each ticking of the second hand offers you another opportunity to start all over again . That is, giving up when you fail should be the last option in your mind. There's always an opportunity to start all over and do things differently. And always remember, for a child of God, this opportunity comes with renewed mercies to help you. Lamentations 3:23. 2. Once a particular set time passes, it cannot be regained anymore. It's gone FOREVER!!.  Therefore make the most of every opportunity. Yes, I know it contradicts the first lesson. But think about this deeply. When you have an opportunity to do something, make sure you make the most of it cause even if you get anot

You do not need to invite the Holy Spirit

By -
Image
I and a friend discussed about this today, and he disagreed wholly, until I showed him the Word. I once used to pray like this whenever we were to go into an 'anointing service.' “We invite the Holy Spirit into this place.” “The Holy Spirit really showed up this morning!” If you have been a Christian for any amount of time, you have no doubt heard these expressions. In fact, you have probably said at least one of them yourself. I know I have! Many believers today often open up church services or worship meetings with prayers like “come, Holy Spirit!” Yet I suspect these prayers may not need to be prayed. Indeed, they may actually cause more harm than good. Allow me to explain. As a Christian, I believe that any person who puts their faith (active trust) in Jesus is given the Holy Spirit. He is described in the Bible as a “seal” we have been given (2 Corinthians 1:22), and as a promised gift from God (Acts 2:38, Acts 10:45). Throughout the New Testament, ever after God

Understanding the Factors that make Children Brilliant

By -

I am sharing this article I came across on Facebook. The Credit goes to The Raise Genius Children Group, a group on Facebook. Here goes the article: This is a long article but you can't raise smart kids if you won't read so lets go lovely parents. Every parent I have met wants a brilliant child and I have also met some that would get enraged if a child comes back with a subpar report card and even go as far as beating a child that isn’t doing fantastic in class. I always wonder why they do that because the truth is there are a lot of factors that make a child brilliant and very few of them depends on the child. In fact I can say the only factor that depends on the child is concentration and seriousness. Every other thing including the ability to think, assimilate, read, memorize, prepare and a host of others fall under the purview of the parents whether consciously or unconsciously. WITH THAT SAID WE WILL LOOK AT THE LONG HELD NATURE VERSUS NURTURE DEBATE: The "Nat

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

Parents, show the Love and be Love

By -

I'm not yet a Father or a Parent, but I'll love to drop this note to all Parents... Give your children the life that no any other man or woman, be it Sugar daddies or Sugar mummies or boyfriend can give to them. Carry them in your expensive cars if affordable by You, such that they won't need to hop-in in the name of lift. Give them the attention that they won't need to crave for. You parents get too busy with church and work to the detriment of your children's attention. Take them through the pleasure; let them go for holidays, if affordable by you as a Parent. Let them use the Business class, sit in the First class – their first time shouldn't be because of a boyfriend or Sugar daddy. Tell them every time how much you love them and it won't tickle their fancies the first time any man tells them that. Most girls who run after Sugar daddies and boyfriends who are even abusing them do so, because they crave for the love, care, attention and material needs

Nothing Good Comes Easy (Dr. Nosa's Success Story)

This is an inspiring Success Story by Dr. Ewere Thompson Nosa, a Medical Doctor and graduate of the University of Port Harcourt (UNIPORT) Dr. Ewere Thompson Nosa ----- After rounding up my Secondary School education, and losing my Dad to the cold hands of death in 2009; I decided to fend for myself, and complement the support I was getting from my wonderful siblings. I had to do this because I don't like depending on anyone wholly, plus the fact that finance was limited and things were not all rossy. So I started off as a phone technician at Third junction in Benin. It wasn't easy for me as I was a bit too young and innocent to hussle in such kind of environment. I faced a lot of reproach, rejections and oppressions. I can remember a day I was beaten up at my work place, by some cultists for not fixing their phones to their specification. I also faced a lot of disappointments even among my loved ones. Well, that's all history. I endured all and passed
