I LOVE YOUR GUT!!!!!!



         Have you ever seen a cow cross the road?
                                 
 I experienced it last week on my way home and I learnt a lot from the Scene. I love sharing thought that inspires me and also stretch me.  Herdsmen were crossing the road with their cattle. The cattle did not stop for the cars to pass, rather the cars on the high way stopped for the cattle.
The cattle were fearless, courageous and were so focused that incoming cars could not stop them.
However, the same scenario happened during my Youth Service but with different animal. A goat was about to cross the road and as soon as the goat heard the horns from cars, he ran fearlessly. The cars never waited rather the goat had to run for his life.
……….#Similar situation, #Different #Animals.
# Lessons learnt
                                        
Ø A lot of things will happen in life to shake you, do not get move. Press on and be Focus.
          
Ø On your way to fulfillment, a lot of distraction may pop-up, it takes a “fearless cow” inside you to ignore the distraction
          


           
Ø When you are convinced about the idea, vision God gave you. Run with it, develop yourself, and do not get intimidated at your present state.
                       
Moreover, have you ever thought about this before?  … Seeds do not germinate the first day you plant it. It takes a whole lot of effort from YOU.
  

Kindly share, publish on your facebook page, blogs if you were really blessed, comment on this post, I really need your feed backs.

LITTLE THINGS COUNT



                                                                                                                                                                              

Happy New month………………… A blank new month, we all need to fill our priorities into each of the days and weeks of this month in other to make it a fulfilling month.

 I am so excited to be sharing this with you, my first post for this month. The title is not new to every one of us. I will be sharing something different.
I enrolled into a music school with the sole aim of learning two musical instruments. I wanted to learn how to play drum and guitar. I wanted to learn how to drum because my church does not have a good drummer; the former drummer was transferred to another parish. I felt the present drummer was not good enough and I could equally learn how to drum.
However, I underestimated the guy that rescued my church from allowing our worship services to be “drum less” whenever the choir ministers.
My first class was Introductory, I needed to know the names of the drums to make it a set, it uses and what each drums does. The next class was an eye-opener to the world of drumming. I must say that it was not easy; I had pains all over my joints after the end of the class.
 Drumming is way more technical than I imagined. It has to do with the mind, body, eye coordination and movement.
Moreover, I am sure someone reading this might be saying it is not only drumming that is technical; we have so many stuffs that are more technical than drumming. That is my point, we under rates some jobs, activities, skills and think it is very easy, some might be anyways.

                             
                                    

I believe that we should respect every one that is skillful in diverse fields,respect people for what they are doing. After my experience, I respected the guy that drums in my church so much in respective of the way he drums. Little drops of water makes a mighty ocean is the way I see every skills, talent we all posses, we can cultivate it to be a river, stream or OCEAN. It depends on what we want.
                                                       
I love YOUTHS, I seek to reach out to every youth under the age group (9-25) in rural communities, to develop, groom and coach them in finding road maps in fulfilling purpose,
 Love you all. Kindly comments, Share with love ones and friends. Gracias.

IT'S NOT REALLY A WASTE

             
                                                         
Hi every one, its a new year promised to be great for every one.

It's another time to Inspire You.

I am sure that what we regard as waste could just be an asset to some on else. I was inspired when  I watched the documentary of the people of Cautera and  I felt that I needed to share it with you. Yes you.
I needed to check Webster definition of waste and it defines waste as a material that is left over or unwanted after something has been made.
However, the resident of Cateura, Paraguay lives in a community that is filled with trash. It's every where.... in its streets, rivers, people's backyard. Garbage is the only crop in Cautera and the harvest last 12 month a year. The occupation in Cautera is trash picking, they sift through the stench 24 hours a day, scrounging for anything they can sell. 10 cents for a pound of plastic, five cents for a pound of cardboard.
                                            
However, the amazing thing about the cauteras' is that they recycled this trash to form several musical instrument . The idea was birthed from an enviromental technician who visited the community and saw kids working and playing on what he called " miserable hill". Favio Chavez , the enviromental technician came up with the idea of starting music school to lift the kids lives out of the trash. He realised that he could not raise money to buy musical instrument rather , he made use of old drain pipes, coins, bottle caps, x-rays plate, dessert tins and many more and he transformed them to musical instrument like saxophones, trumpets,guitars, drums and many more instruments.
In conclusion,. the question for us all including me is the amount our "WASTE WORTH"? let make the best use of every thing we have before we tag it as WASTE. ( attend workshops, conferences and read motivational books this year)
 Thanks for taking out time to read this. Share and repost . Commment below if you enjoyed this write up. You can follow this blog because it promises to Inspire you .

HAPPY NEW YOU/ HAPPY NEW YEAR. Love you alll.

IN SEARCH OF MY IDENTITY

                                          


……There’s a boy sitting at the end of the road, looks worried.
……I don’t ave any one to help me; I came in to this world without knowing who I am.
……My street friends call me dede, is that who I am?
……Nevertheless, I am contended with whatever they call me.
…… (Sobs) Who is willing to help me find my true self?
……I am neglected, abandoned.
……I don’t have any one to care for me except passers-by that gives me penny to survive for each day.
……I really want to know where I came from.
……Why did you bring me to this world mother?
……You care less about me.
……You abandoned me, is this really what happens to everyone in this life?
……Am I the only one experiencing this?
…… ( Sobs) Why me? My Creator?
……I know you can help me.
……Show me the way.
……What if my mother is dead?
……..Oh no!
…….Nevertheless, there is hope for me.
……I can do all things; I will go in search of my true identity.
                               
                                      
                     
                                  

WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT THIS PIECE? WILL APPRECIATE YOUR SINCERE COMMENT.(BOTH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE) ALL GOOD TO ME.

.........DON'T GO TOO FAR


                                           

Good morning great minds! It’s been a while since I posted something. It’s been another phase of my life. I am so excited to share my experience, lessons that I have learnt. NB: we learn each and every day of our life.
Often times, we ask a lot of questions whenever things do not go the way we plan it. We are looking for a way out. Some of us resort to fate while some try to understand why it’s happening and what can be done t enjoy it while it last and some just kill themselves. Which of these categories do you fall in? Are you always scared about negative situation or you see it as a stepping stone to greater height?
However, I would want you to think deeply about the question before you rush to a conclusion.
                          
 My experience……….
At some points in my life, things were not going the way I planned it, I had a lists of goals, ideas that I wanted to accomplish. I really meant good but at a point everything stood still. Aaaarrrrrggghhhh oh my God! Lord why is this happening were thought running through my conscious mind. It was not easy for me at that point, I needed a breakthrough.
                                      
Moreover, I learnt my lesson, I realize that its’ not at the point of planting that the seed is harvested. Everyone needs to wait at some point , while waiting endeavour to make it worthwhile.
To university student on strike, what are you using this period for? Are you sleeping all day long waiting for a MIRACLE, sure miracle will happen but engage yourself while waiting for that MIRACLE. You can work for free, learn a skill and engage yourself, read your books both lecture materials and developmental books till the strike is called- off. A stagnant water is the only water that mosquito breeds on freely. Don’t be a stagnant mind that all sorts of predator will feast on.
                                 
What are you waiting for? ACT NOW. “Education is the beginning of transformation. Dedicate yourself to daily learning via books/audio/seminars and coaching”- Robin Sharma.
I hope reading this article was worthwhile? Kindly comments, like or share it if you really enjoyed it. God bless you all. Love You.

YOU MIGHT THINK HE’S SLOW…



image
“The Lord is not slow in keeping his promise,as some understand slowness. Instead He is patiently with you,not wanting anyone to perish, but everyone to come to repentance”
~2Peter3:9
Some things we desire from Him and we think He is slow in answering us has so many underlying reasons that we do not know and might not be able to fathom, because His ways are soooooooooooooooooo higher than ours and what our human heads can comprehend.
Some things if given to us, no matter how good and genuine or right we think it is, can lead to our destruction if given to us now and because He is not willing for anyone to perish by a gift, He delays it till He considers it the right time!
Now, the question on the minds of Christians today might be how do I know what to fight for in prayer and what to let go (if God does not really want me to have it now)?
Well, this answer cannot be separated from our personal fellowship and communion with the Holy Ghost. He gives you a witness in your spirit to go ahead and fight or He tells you to rejoice because that desire will surely come at His own time because He makes all things beautiful in His time.
Take a look at your desires now. Are they in line with what God has written down?
Well, its Gods desire for us to live good and comfortable lives, be promoted in our careers,enjoy a good marriage, have children, be healthy and allllll good things of life.
However, we must come to realise that the moment a man does not have any challenge or what He’s looking forward to access, he might come to a false thinking that he does not need God.
There is no single person on earth without a challenge (including our Bishops and Pastors)
Challenges vary according to your level and walk with God per time.
Challenges are not meant to swallow us but to perform some works in us which mainly includes to increase our level of faith and trust for him in the face of contrary situations. He also takes us through some challenges because we have a ministry to people in that area. But how can we deliver if we have not really felt the same thing. A message is more powerful and delivered with passion if you have a first hand experience. God uses us as a seed for the harvest in that particular area of challenge.
You are that seed that will bring the harvest for many people in that same situation.
It all depends on the way you see it.
How can you explain a woman that God tells exactly the number of years He wants her to wait before giving her a child? She’s someone well known to me. She simply relaxed even when tongues were wagging and people were asking all manner of questions.
And did it happen when God told her it would??? Yes! It happened exactly that same year!
People! God is not a wicked God and He’s too faithful to fail.
He does it when He will do it and its all in our interest.
The best we can do is to continually draw closer to him in prayer believing that at the appointed time, He will deliver.
Having done all your part…. STAND!!!!
Friends, STAND!!!
Maintain your joy,
Let no devil steal it!
Tell him you know better.
Don’t waste your years in depression.
There’s still sooooooooooooo much more to live for, beyond that desire!
Hold on to the horns of the altar!
He will surprise us all and even “if not….” He is God and has the best in mind.

WHERE IS THE MARRIAGE CERTIFICATE BEFORE YOU SLEPT WITH HIM

                                               


Good afternoon everyone, i wrote this story while i was in school but never published it, just modified the title, I hope you all enjoy it..
Amaka was the only educated person in her family, her father was a carpenter while her mother sells food. Amaka passed her WAEC and JAMB examination at a sitting; she filled University of Lagos as her choice of University to study Pharmacy.
Amaka resumed her new school with a high expectation of graduating with a first class; little did she know that she was in for it.
Amaka was allocated to Moremi hall, with a very nice roommate. However, during registration, amaka met Damilola, a 300level Pharmacy student. Amaka was happy to meet Damilola because she was studying the course of her choice and she was more expose than her. Damilola was mostly called “street dogs” by her mates; she loved clubbing and was also a major in “sugar daddy course”. Poor Amaka thought she had met a mentor.
Amaka spent most of her time with Damilola and like the saying ‘that one cannot run away from ones habit”, Damilola began to show the stuff she was made of. She invited Amaka for a party one day and Amaka accepted the invitation. Little did Amaka know that Damilola had already organized a ‘sugar daddy’ for her.  Amaka got to the partly elegantly dressed, her make up was so perfect, and she actually looked beautiful that day. Amaka was introduced to Chief Ademuyiwa by Damilola; she never understood that Chief Ademuyiwa was her date for that night. After the first and second course meal, Chief became bored and wanted to enjoy every bit of Amaka. Amaka was already drowsy; hence she followed Chief into the room he had booked earlier. Amaka was innocent that she never knew that she was in for it that night. On getting to the room, Chief Ademuyiwa started making some funny moves, which Amaka was not comfortable with , she told him to stop , but he was already aroused. Amaka started crying but couldn’t help her self. Chief Ademuyiwa penetrated into Amaka, and oh , Amaka was still a virgin.
Amaka’s life was not the same after that night; she started attending parties, had several man friends and was just “enjoying herself”
There is a saying that one day is for the thief and another day for the owner. Amaka became ill and was admitted at the Lagos State University Teaching Hospital, several test were conducted on her and Amaka was diagnosed to be HIV reactive, “the owner has caught up with her”, and Amaka the main girl now has to deal with her disease. Who infected her among the men was her first thought, knowing the man doesn’t solve the problem. What will she do now?

                                      
However, its very painful that we’ve neglected our tradition, in the oldern days, when a lady get married, the parent always look forward for a keg of palm wine signifying that the lady is virgin, ladies that were not virgin were taken back to their parent homes.. While this practice was inculcated, we never heard of veneral diseases, can we say that the advent of veneral disease is a way that God is using to punish us.
If you really want to have sex, intend of seeing any person to have sex with, go and marry, you might say that marriage as its ups and down ,I  don’t want to marry, you then have to pick one, is either you abstain from premarital sex or you get married.

                                              
Further more, innocent lives are endangered (unborn babies), if you known that you don’t want to kill an innocent life, don’t venture into sex.
Sexual promiscuity brings harm to every one concerned, one that is sexually promiscuous is endangering his or her life to several veneral diseases and most of them do not have a permanent cure and this can affect the person in various facets if he attributes her failure to others. It pays to keep oneself.
