GO AN EXTRA MILE

The story of Eliezer’s challenge is a familiar one. Abraham sent Eliezer off with a task, “Find a suitable wife for my son Isaac.” How, though, could Eliezer be secure in the knowledge that the woman he chose would indeed measure up to the standards of the saintly Isaac?
To ensure that he would find the young woman, Eliezer came up with a plan. Hence was born the famous “camel test”: After his long travels, Eliezer would ask a young maiden for a sip of water, and if she offered to provide water for his camels as well, she would be the one!
When Eliezer and his men arrived at the well, they had with them many camels, so they’d be able to escort the future bride and all her possessions and servants back to Isaac.
Eliezer had watched her fill a jug of water and place it on her shoulder. He ran over and asked to sip from it. Rebecca told him to drink, but hurriedly removed the jug from her shoulder to her hand and let him drink.
When he finished drinking, the jug was not yet empty, and she offered to give the camels water as well.
"She offered to give the camel water as well"
"She went the extra mile"
The difference between the ordinary person and the extra -ordinary person is the word extra in the "extra ordinary".
Doing more than you are required to do.
Rebecca could as well just lowered the water and give him ,but she was proactive to know that if this man is thirsty his camels too were going to be thirsty too.She went the extra mile to give the camel water.
Do what you have to do and some more, learn to go an extra mile .
Jesus said if someone forces you to go with him one mile, go with him two miles.
Avoid been average if you are average the law of 20/80 percent rule will catch up with you negatively.
That rule explain to us that in every group(100%) ,20% will always be at the top and 80% will be average/beneath . The 20% at the top are those who go the extra mile and always do some MORE.
In your class do a little bit MORE.
In that group you are in do a little bit MORE.
In the church do a little bit MORE.
At work do a little bit MORE.
In your line of Industry do a little bit MORE.
In your Christian race do a little bit MORE.
And the top is sure for you.

MOST IMPORTANT THING IN MARRIAGE

Uncle Etuk grinned when he saw his daughter, Idara and the husband Ime walked into the house. The old man, was on one of his rare visits to his daughter and in-law. He had to succumb after several pleas from his in-law to move from the confines of Mkpat Enin to Uyo to spend the Easter Holidays. This his in-law believed he needed to comfort the old man from loneliness after his wife’s demise three months ago. After dinner that evening, he whispered to his son in law that if they don’t mind, he would love to have a quick word with the couple after the children have gone to bed. By 9pm, the couple was back to the dinner table to hear what the old man had to say. He started by asking them a simple question “What is the most important thing in your life Idara? She replied, “Daddy, it is the kids, they mean everything to me”. He then turned and asked Ime, the son in law the same question, he also beaming with pride said: "it is the kids of course; they are the reason why ...

SHE WOULD LIKELY CHEAT IF SHE LOVES THESE THREE THINGS

Although it is said that men cheat more than women, today the ratio is almost level. Just like men have different justifications for cheating, women too cheat for different reasons. Here are 3 types of women who are likely to cheat:- 1. The money lover: The money or gift lover is the number one on the list because most women cheat because of this 'weakness' in them. We all love money and would wish to have lots of it but for such women, they are capable of getting into other relationships just because of finances. This is the type that sleeps with any man as long as there is monetary payback. 2. The 'party animal': No party passes without her having to attend. I don't mean every woman who goes to a party is a cheat but the 'party animal' is highly likely to cheat. No weekend finds her in the house, instead, she will be out drinking and dancing with other men till morning. The drinks she takes could be sponsored by abled men who would the...

MARRIAGE IS HIGH MAINTENANCE

If you are not ready for the work, perhaps you should take things slow where you are now until you are ready. Just like you maintain and service your car and generators, your marriage needs to be maintained or serviced to avoid a catastrophic breakdown or engine failure. So what are some of the things you can do to service or build your marriage? Here goes; Make your marriage your top priority. Many people, especially women think that their children are number one. Wrong! Your spouse is Your Number One. Your children (believe it or not) are number two. God is everything so don't think I skipped that here. All else comes after family. Remember why you fell in love and agreed to marry your spouse in the first place. Keep these reasons on the front burner and never forget them. When your faith in your marriage fails, when your love seems to be whittling down, some of these will help kick start your relationship again. Keep romance alive, a loving touch here, kind words o...

THE HARD TO GET MANTRA
