*GOOD MORNING LISTENERS..COMING TO YOU IS THE MOTIVATIONAL BOOST FROM OBS OUTDOOR BROADCASTING SERVICE*
I am Goodness Okeke Nwosu with code number 5971

Let me shear briefly with you what I Titled *TRUST*
Trust is the firm belief or confidence in honesty, integrity, reliability and justice of another person.

Answer this, can you trust yourself..? How trustworthy are you?

Hence, we trust another man when we sees enough of our self in them.

Never stop trusting people just because someone has broken your faith, in this journey of trust.

Real human being, never break promises and trust. Do not trust people who tell you other people’s secrets.

Therefore, as one big family whom we are, let us build that level of trust in one another as we raise together..

Being trustworthy is one of the hallmarks of a good friend and a good person.
A life without trust is a life in turmoil.

Hold this with you,..
*who will go to bed thanking God for such a friend like you...*?
