HOW DO YOU FEEL ABOUT THE 2023 ELECTION?

For some, things are back to normal, for some it has not and for some it will never come to normal. Analysis, theories and prophecies but only few have the desire to admit that they have sentiments. One thing whose usage has been largely abused in this season has been our tongues. Our guts and confidence appear to have improved but our decorum seems to have reduced. Who stopped literary and debating society in our public schools, such a person must be jailed because arguments now have to go the way of abuse.

Jealousy, wickedness, beefs and inconsistencies are camouflaged as patriotism and many are working hard to defend prophecies like final year projects. In the midst of all these some are taking advantage of the many rancours for financial and political gain. These ones are the smartest or the luckiest even if it’s only going to be for a season. Most of us are Jihadist or crusaders. We have proven that over time those who are privileged to be our leaders have successfully taught us what to think and not how to think.

What do you do when people aren’t buying into your concept or idea? Do you call them out, expose their ignorance, try to make them feel ashamed, create a fear factor or just mind your business? Emotional intelligence is on a low if your response is not appropriate.How many false narratives have you propagated all because it aligns with your sentiments.

I sincerely pray and hope Nigeria and her next leaders won’t fail because if they fail, it is a tragedy for the nation. However, hoping they fail so as to validate your point is meaningless, it only suggests that you care more about being right than the nation being great regardless of who leads us.

Are you looking for a place to interact in Dartford?

No matter how hard we try to deny it, the truth is humans were created to interact, socialize, seek love, and ultimately find love. The big challenge is we often get this important aspect of life very very wrong. If you ever have an inner desire to interact closely with believers of Christ, especial...

TIME OUT AT THE HORNIMAN MUSEUM

It's been five months since I last stepped out of Dartford for any reason. However this time I feel I needed a few hours of fresh air and a time when I won't be thinking of anything serious. I wanted to enter the "nothing box" in my brain but guess what I can not do

Dear Friends, It is to your advantage to trust and follow whatever the Holy Spirit suggest to you. No matter how logical and realistic other suggestions are, it will end in pain. Following the Holy Spirit is always cost effective.

WHEN A BELIEVER GETS OBESE

Obesity is one of the top global health challenges. One of many google definitions suggests that obesity is when you're very overweight and It will put anyone at risk of serious health problems. A fundamental treatment for obesity is a reduced-calorie diet and an exercise plan. Less common treatments include weight loss medicines and surgery. It is good to note that obesity is believed to be caused by eating and drinking too much and moving too little.

Just as a man can be physically obese, he can also be spiritually obese. Note that obesity begins with a fun-filled activity of consumption. However, consumption without corresponding productivity turns the consumer into a liability first to himself and thereafter to people around him. Earlier today, I was with my pastor and he talked about how the community of believers is filled with people that know so much about the kingdom but rarely exhibit the kingdom traits.

As the calories consumed via eating food must be burnt in terms of work, the word of faith that a believer consume must be spent on something. Faith must be exercised often so that the knowledge of it won't become a burden. We must regularly challenge ourselves to show our faith also by our works. Showing this faith isn't just limited to when we have the sick around or when we are seeking finance. It must be exercised in our commitment to good systems and processes, it must show in our attitude to life and the people in it. It must show in our regard for the rule of law even if it looks so inconsequential.

Take a moment to reflect on all that you have consumed in terms of faith and kingdom messages and seek to exercise them in your daily life. While you jealousy watch your diet, burn the ones you have consumed and consistently do so. You need to be fit for the masters use. You don't stay fit by consumption alone, you must burn this energy. Don't be scared

Your potbelly of spirituality that is making you feel you are deep will eventually destroy your health. Don't you see how you pant heavily after every little challenge life throws at you? Do your vitals, heed to the word of life and
hit the gym.

I DON'T KNOW HOW TO TITLE THIS.

The invasion from Africa to the rest of the world has gotten to a new height in this cycle. It probably started with the slave trade but it will not end that way. Slavery and colonization came but so also is the gospel, commerce, and education.

Afrobeats is spreading all over the world and though Africans have been blazing the trail before now, the music is making a louder noise. This among other things make me know that our brand of the gospel will blaze the trail all over the world.

I believe the gospel will come with even more compelling power, beyond what logic or reasoning can fathom. Analytics have gotten to a crazy height but I know it will be nothing compared to what a discerning mind backed by the Holy Ghost will be able to do. Landmark innovations will emerge in addition to those we have on the ground. They will be proof of the superiority of God's power.

The best musicians are not often the most popular or successful. Again time and chance happen to us all. However, I believe the most successful are not only skillful or favoured by time and chance, but they are also in alignment with a power behind the scene. Believers must embrace marketplace skills and be excellent in it and be disciplined enough to abide by God's principles even if it looks like they won't win. God's plan is insanely beyond our thoughts. The process is as important as the outcome.

The borders won't be shut, keep coming soldiers. Ultimately we would realize one day that there's a civilization bigger, sweeter, and sharply contrasting to what we have now or aiming to have. It's a cycle and it will be completed. Both sides are not balanced yet, there is something we both lack and that we can learn from each other.

Baby Shower, Baby Snatching & The Baby Girls For Life. 

For more than four weeks I've been planning a baby shower for someone I've not even met before. Pardon my manners, I wasn't planning, I was only indirectly or passively planning. It was my wife who was doing the planning. My involvement was through the fact that the baby shower comes up in our conversation often and I was dragged into joining for shopping on a few occasions. So I was part of it. 

I remembered asking my wife what baby showers are about. Her answer sounded like a shower is like a get-together with a sprinkle of baby vocabularies or register. Finally she said they are celebrating the mother and having a pre-naming ceremony. My final opinion is that the event is just an excuse to mingle and perhaps it's good for those that are single...

Baby Shower, Baby Snatching & The Baby Girls For Life.

For more than four weeks I've been planning a baby shower for someone I've not even met before. Pardon my manners, I wasn't planning, I was only indirectly or passively planning. It was my wife who was doing the planning. My involvement was through the fact that the baby shower comes up in our conversation often and I was dragged into joining for shopping on a few occasions. So I was part of it.

I remembered asking my wife what baby showers are about. Her answer sounded like a shower is like a get-together with a sprinkle of baby vocabularies or register. Finally she said they are celebrating the mother and having a pre-naming ceremony. My final opinion is that the event is just an excuse to mingle and perhaps it's good for those that are single.

Child care is big around here, it is a legitimate excuse to skip work and a fast way to have a police case. While we were preparing for this event, kids who out of curiosity wanted to explore the environment opened the front door. Another neighbor saw them and called the police. The case title will sound like child wandering and the offense will sound like 'child neglect'. This is the same neighborhood where the baby shower was meant to hold and the parent were also meant to be at the event.

It's a different stroke for different folks. Back in Africa, boys brag about their childhood by saying "they are not omo get inside". Aside from this, the weather is calm and every kid wants to play outside. While playing outside they meet others doing the same. Communal life exists in a way that other adults indirectly take responsibility for kids they see around. Till now my boy still disturbs the home because he's unable to play outside. I'm very sure he will grab any opportunity to do so. Long story short, police grabbed the kids. It was a lot of drama but the parents got their kids back.

The dust of the grabbing settled and so the shower began as I was told. Friends travelled down from different parts of England to catch fresh air in Dartford. It was more of a breaking free adventure for everyone, away from hustling life around here. Rice and stew was plenty and also with the special effect of gizdodo from my wife. She has a secret recipe. Largely a girl outing, the event was filled with tales of loan repayment, extra working hours in order to keep up and indulge themselves a little and child minding among other things.

What's a girls outing without shopping? My wife came back with a new shoe. Do they sell shoes at baby showers? Let the rest of my comment on that stay inside me.

Live now that you can.
