GET HOLD OF THE SPIRITUAL
I’m of the opinion that for everything we see manifested in the physical there is a spiritual incident that had happened to prepare the way for this manifestation. I’d love to say that you be born again and accept

Hi again. It's me and my nation building formula. If you're just enjoying the show, please do catch up by reading up my last post.
Alright, let's roll guys!

GET A SKILL
Yes, I know your career path has nothing to do with vocations… blah blah blah. Take a pause, dear. What you have to contribute to the house you come from, the society you live; something that can be handy when

Circle Up boys & girls: let's build a nation!

I'm at a point in my life where I'm so pissed at the picture we're painting as a nation on the canvas of posterity. Wipe that smile off your face and prepare for the hardest blow you've ever been hit, because I ain't gonna be gentle at all. Recent events have taken to the microwave oven some issues that have sat down too long in mind and have since gone cold; speeding up the heating process. Yeah, right now, they are steaming hot and they would burn you if time is not taken. It all comes down to this: for Nigeria to be sane nation, the society must be sane. For a society to be whole, the family must be whole. For us to have healthy family

The Magic Story - My Review

I'm one of the lazy bums (if you like) who would still go in search of the audio version of any book I'm reading or interested in reading. It's kinda me saving myself the stress of having to carry the books around, thereby saving them from the harsh conditions many books go through. Recently, I went in search of the audiobook of The Richest Man in Babylon. You see, I had read the book once, I even have the soft copy in PDF on my laptop, but there is just something about hearing a book being read to you. Though I couldn't find it, what I did find wasn't less rewarding. I got the dramatised version of it done by the Napoleon Hill Foundation motivation audio theatre. It came along with and dramatization of another book called The Magic Story. In the following paragraphs, I'm going to share some of the things I learnt from the dramatization, and of course, my interpretation of its content. I hope to pass along the wise of this aged writings!

A person should not be blinded to whatever exists

#SaveGeorge

I woke up yesterday to find this person on my twitter timeline asking for help on behalf of their friend. This kind of reminds me of myself about 3 - 4 months ago asking for help to save my friend Oke's feet and life. So I have made a made the decision to help where I can and I'm encouraging you to do same. Below is the content of the mail sent my way after I requested for details from his friend Ajani Adeyinka:
I'm sorry... Due to the weather here in Ibadan it kinda affected the network. George is a graduate of English, he graduated 2010.. Had been suffering from a leaking kidney and has been on drugs since 2010 when he graduated. Presently he needs 2.5m for his Kidney Transplant and he's in

Strange People

'Whom having NOT SEEN, you love; in whom, though now YOU SEE HIM NOT, yet believing, you rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory’ –1 Peter 1:8
These people rejoice with joy unspeakable & full of glory for whom they have not & cannot see yet.
These people dance & sing praises when their breakthrough has not come yet.
These people celebrate & boast when their expectation is yet to be fulfilled.
THESE ARE STRANGE PEOPLE!

Blood...

I got this article from someone, so I thought to share
I gave blood today. It was the first time in over 6 years and I had only donated once before. As I reflect on the day's event, I see spiritual truth and application in what appears to be a simple thing.
Christianity is symbolized by the cross. The blood of Jesus is the verbal wording and pictorial image of the sacrifice and salvation for Christians. If you are not Christian, bear with me, this will relate.
The symbol of the organization that collects blood to save lives is The Red Cross. I got a chance to stare at it while I was on the donating couch. It's not a Christian cross, it's a plus sign.
Most of the south is Christian by a large majority. Less than 5% of the eligible population donates blood. I
