WHAT DO YOU THINK?


A dear sisters asked me about my opinion on wearing trousers...

Hmmmmmm, this is a discussion I really don't want to get fully involve in because people have different ideologies, mentality, etc about it and trust me, it's draining down some people.

Okay, I told her it's all about your conviction. What do you think about wearing trousers? What's your motive towards wearing trousers? To kill or to look smart, modest, etc?

While growing up I remembered I made a promise to one of my sisters (friends) telling her I won't wear trousers and earrings in my life. Smiles, look at me now.

In fact, I grew up looking at those who were wearing earrings and trousers as sinners because of the church I grew up in. So, it was all that, that made me think wearing trousers was bad but as times goes on, I realized it shouldn't be like that.

So, like I said to the dear sister. What is your conviction about wearing trousers? If you think it's bad,  don't you think wearing the NYSC trouser is bad too? Even if it's mandatory, don't you think wearing it is as if you have broken your believe about it . So such people shouldn't serve abi? No!

For some people, it's like an instruction/leading not to wear it but just because it's your conviction doesn't mean you can enforce it on others or see people that wears it as sinners. 

Stay on your conviction and let others do. Stop beefing and keeping malice just because that sisters is wearing trousers and you are not. I am not saying this because I wear it but because I have been there before. Back then, you can't be my friend if you wear trousers.

Also to those wear trousers,
Let's be modest and represent God well. You shouldn't be wearing any how trousers that doesn't present you well. In as much as you want to look fit and smart. Also, be modest. Let people see you and desire how modest and presentable you look in trousers. Let your motive be right. You shouldn't have the motives of wearing trousers to tempt people. Please, let your motive be right and positive.

So, don't enforce wearing trousers on anyone. Let them be convinced about that personally. Also, because someone who doesn't wear trousers before start wearing trousers doesn't mean you should look down on the person or say "She has blackslided". Bibles, say judge no one. No matter how well you know the person or not. God hasn't given unto us the power to judge but to be our brother's keeper. If you notice or sense anything about a person, walk up to the person or put the person in prayers instead of condemning. 

I pray God help us to walk in love and don't select people based on if she is wearing trousers or not. No! It should be. Bibles instruct us to love everyone without segregation.

God bless us all...Amen!

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

THE JOURNEY

Last 2 year, I started a journey on my health and I'm grateful. Even though I wasn't consistent especially after the coaching session but I had to strive to ensure the journey continues even though I fall, I still get myself back  Imagine being a lover of heels and you can't wear it for too long Having to sweat profusely, Having knee ache pains, Sewing new dresses because you can't wear your favorite dress Imagine lot's more because of weight gain, That was me.. Before you go further and think it's only food that cause weight gain.  Mine wasn't, I could say it was stay at home, free hands and no stress kind of reason (I don't know how best to put it) I know I'm not a slim person but I was already weighing 110kg. Lolz, 2 bags of cement. Then I told myself Temilade, it has to change  I found the solution DIET, It was at the point where I realized I couldn't be myself and also seeing changes, I decided to take my health serious  I subscribed to a di...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
