OLD TIME RELIGION

Many embrace a gospel that is not the same as Jesus and the disciples taught. We sometimes wonder, WHAT HAPPENED TO THE OLD TIME RELIGION -the religion in which the “full gospel ” was preached and taught (1 corinthians  15:1-4) which our ancestors believed, taught and walked in. We live in a time where some ministers have thousands of followers whom they do not want to offend with even the mention of sin. Some preach a gospel of how to be healthy, wealthy, wise..etc and omit how to stand victoriously and resist the devil. Some instead seem to focus on self -help and how to be successful in life. The successful Christian today is seen by some as one who drives the best car, has the biggest mansion and pays the most tithes into a church to help support a social type gospel. Yet, love for God first and others, helping,and walking in the spirit of the lord are birthmarks of a believer that is successful in Christ. God expects us to give as we have prospered,yet it is more than giving...

FRIENDSHIP

Have you ever wondered why some people are not getting it right in the aspect of friendship?. This is because they have not been enlightened on what friendship entails OR basically have not defined their stage of friendship One holiday,my younger sister came to tell me that one of my friends asked about me and I was like my friend? I have to ask her again and she said yes. I smiled and asked “Who”...Fortunately, it was one of my class mates in secondary school that have not seen for years. Then I sat her down and I told  her it is not everyone you relate to are your FRIENDS .I made her have that understanding,also I told her I choose my friends because the kind of friends you move with determines your FUTURE.Not because I am proud but I have learnt to identify who are my friends. *WHO IS A FRIEND* I know a lot of people have their own definition but I still want to share my own opinion *A friend is someone you create things together *A friend is a favored compani...

LOW SELF-ESTEEM

With so much tears,smile and love..I urge you to read this article. It is my true life story, I am not writing this to feel sorry but for you all to learn, gain and be blessed from it. I have been carrying this pain in me for years even though I was not able to identify on time and what is the pain? LOW SELF-ESTEEM I was worthless, not good at everything, have no self esteem, nothing to live for. I believed that other girls are perfect with flawless face, perfect eyebrows, perfect weight, they are perfect in everything. I always wish I was someone else, I ask myself why do I have to be who I am, can't I be like them..pretty,e.t.c but all I hear was my inner voice telling me “Stop!You can't do this ”.The only thing I do was to listen to that voice telling me what to do and how to react to situations. I was always shy in class, had stage fright, do not talk unless being talked to that's me and will forever be... I thought . I lost my confidence, I can't talk when ever...

SCARS

I implore you to read through this article, it will enlighten you Tears rolled down my face as I listened to a young lady give her testimony.She had experienced tremendous abuse by pimps, by Jacobs, and even by police officers. She had been physically,emotionally,and verbally abused. She had been rejected and shamed. Basically, she had lived anyone's worst nightmare. Yet she now stood in front of a huge audience, resilient and strong in the lord.She stood there encouraging people to use their pain for God's glory. She encouraged people not to let their scars define them, but to spur them forward in love, forgiveness and humility. It must have been difficult for her to talk about her past. She could have pretended it never happened. But she did share her scars... Over the course of her lifetime  she would undoubtedly impact thousands of lives with the power of the gospel. We all have scars, and those scars have stories. It could be external or internal scars. External scars...
