TO ALL MY FRIENDS AND ENEMIES


1. Once upon a time I met a man who told me that telling the truth and making someone cry, is better than telling a lie and making someone smile and happy.

2. He said to me your true friends are those who will never avoid you just because they have met new friends.

3. As he kept on speaking to me, he said If some people do not appreciate and value my presence, I should work hard to make them value and appreciate my absence.

4. He said I must not be angry with anyone who is quiet on me because there must be a reason why they are quiet, and that I will get to know the reason later.

5. He told me it is always better to be a blessing to others at all times than to be a burden at all times.

6. He said I must learn to forgive others not because they deserve it but because I deserve the peace that comes with forgiveness.

7. I must know that everyone deserves a second chance and many more chances if they ask for forgiveness, but I must not loose my guard over their intentions.

8. I must not only talk to people in my free time, but I must free my time to talk to people.

9. I must know that the truth may hurt for a little while, but a lie will hurt for a long time.

10. I must learn to value and respect people who tell you the Truth no matter how painful the truth is.

11. I must make my decisions when I am in the right mood, not when I am angry, likewise I must not make promises when I am excited with high emotions.

12. I must know that some people are like candles that burn themselves to give light to others. I should not have regrets if I happen to be one of such candles.

13. I must learn to be a caring friend because it is a thousand times better than a careless lover.

14. I should value and protect my relationships of many years of investments because they are like a book that takes years to write but can get burnt only within few seconds.

15. He specifically said this repeatedly that If I have a problem with someone, I should go tell the person and not go tell the world.

16. He said to me that I should know that nobody is too busy, it is just a matter of their priorities within a day.

17. He said to me that people can trust you when you are consistent with what you say and what you do.

18. He said with a low voice, only God can be totally trusted. Trust God 100%.

19. He then said no matter what, I must not forget those who helped and stood by me in my time of trials and during my difficult times.

20. I must always remember those who turned their backs on me in my difficult times of trials. Not for vengeance, but for the lesson of life.

21. I must be careful with those who put me into difficult times but I must never hate them. It is a lesson of life.

22. He said again I must be grateful at all times to God for this life and for living. It is a previlege and not a right.

23. As he was leaving me, he said, always remember how temporary this world is, I must always be conscious of the reality of eternity with God in heaven or with Satan in hell fire.

24. He smiled and left waving me for a long time. Who must this man be?

25. What he told me may be useful to you.

God bless you more as you meditate upon these words and share with your friends.

A WISE MAN ONCE SAID

1. Don’t call someone more than twice continuously. If they don’t pick up your call, presume they have something important to attend to; 2. Return money that you have borrowed even before the person that borrowed you remember or ask for it. It shows your integrity and character. Same goes with umbrellas, pens and lunch boxes. 3. Never order the expensive dish on the menu when someone is giving you a lunch/dinner. 4. Don’t ask awkward questions like ‘Oh so you aren’t married yet?’ Or ‘Don’t you have kids’ or ‘Why didn’t you buy a house?’ Or why don't you buy a car? For God’s sake it isn’t your problem; 5. Always open the door for the person coming behind you. It doesn’t matter if it is a guy or a girl, senior or junior. You don’t grow small by treating someone well in public; 6. If you take a taxi with a friend and he/she pays now, try paying next time; 7. Respect different shades of opinions. Remember what's 6 to you will appear 9 to someone facing you....

Expecting A Miracle By Typing "AMEN"

I really cannot tell what this Christian generation is turning into; people now believe too much on social media prayers, all they do is type “Amen” and “I receive”, on some else’s car, house or money. Or sometime “it is not my portion” to some Nollywood screen shot. Dangote didn’t become a billionaire by typing AMEN on social media “so my brothers work hard” . FD beat (producer/sound engineer). Come to think of its true, why wasting your time, battery and data? Ok let’s say you use free Wi-Fi or free cheat so the data is not a problem. But in Nigeria where I came from, the power supply company is not your friend, why waste your battery? I am a Christian and I believe so mush in miracles, but sometimes they are things I don’t say Amen to. A pastor’s baby was playing with her dad’s phone and accidentally posted “sdjmhryuiowq kdfshjsvfjj tokoloshika bskklsprfrrrrrrrr” on the pastor’s Facebook wall. Within an hour over 1,500 followers had commented; “Amen”, “I receive it”. And a...

SECRET OF A WOMAN

At one time, a newly married young man was shouting at his 22 years old wife and his father called him aside and said to him, 'We only shout at people our shouts or threats can frighten. But not to your wife. The way you are shouting, you are giving away your power to your wife. Your threats make her stronger. Most men believe that when a woman is threatened, she gets subdued, but women are not changed with fear. A woman may stay quiet when a man is threatening and shouting at her but she is not sitting down inside her. She is evaluating the man's weakness and how to subdue him rather. Cast your mind back to those days men used to beat their wives flippantly at slightest provocations, today most of those men are older and they are facing the consequences. Those women their husband were beating years back are the ones enjoying the marriage with their children today, the mothers have their children's sympathy, the men are at the receiving end. Let it become clear ...

KEY WEAKNESSES OF THE WOMEN

In life generally, women are known as weaker vessel according to the Bible content - 1 Peter 3: 7. And if we look deeply, we can see that it is true. According to my findings, l discovered three weaknesses of the women, which l will properly explain for everyone to know. Here are the weaknesses:- #1. Women don't think deep:  In anything in life, we can never compare the thought of the men with the women. Ask me why? Women normally think low, when it comes to the level of thinking on anything in life, either on situations on ground or otherwise. They think low, and inasmuch men don't understand this, there will be quarreling in the relationship. Therefore, men, understand women as the weaker vessel. #2. Women don't have heart to admit situations:  This is another area whereby women need serious men attention. They don't have the heart to admit circumstances, when problem arise. They will be serious in overflowing weeping. All their system will change, even people around ...

Trump says he only sleeps a few hours each night

President-elect Donald J. Trump reportedly only needs a few hours of sleep every night. While on the campaign trail, he said, "You know, I’m not a big sleeper. I like three hours, four hours, I toss, I turn, I beep-de-beep, I want to find out what’s going on." Trump's not the only one: Corporate executives like PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi and even President Barack Obama rarely — if ever — get what's considered a full night of sleep. While for many of us, getting too little sleep can have some nasty consequences such as headaches and stomach problems, others are able to thrive off of just four-to-six hours of shut-eye, something called "short sleeping." Short sleepers, a group the Wall Street Journal once called the "sleepless elite," need only a short amount of sleep every night instead of the average 7-8 hours. Scientists estimate they make up only about 1% of the population. The reason these leaders seem to thrive in their careers despite their...
