IS IT RIGHT TO CARRY WORLDLY PRACTICES TO THE CHURCH?


So I decided to surprise my family with a weekend visit. I met my beautiful children looking wonderful and blissful with smiles on their faces. Then I noticed that my youngest child (4 years old) was dancing shaku shaku. "Where did you learn that from?" I asked. My...

WHY IT SEEMS THAT ALL MEN ARE THE SAME


Woe is me! for I am like every other man, my eyes seek out pretty girls. The good men are no more, there's not a single good man out there. Righteously they act, patiently waiting for the right time to pounce on the vulnerable. They just can't wait to do their heart's...

WISE AID: HOW TO GIVE


I was walking by the road when a young girl approached me. She explained that she doesn't have enough money for transport. I gave her twice of what she asked for. Immediately she left a young boy approached me with a story (can't remember) whose ending was 'help me...

BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS: A SILENT KILLER OF OUR SOCIETY


Every year we become older by a year, our age increases by 1. This increase has nothing to do with us, it has been predestined (that is if you believe in destiny). We did not work to get older, we did not choose to get older...we just get older. The Bible said, "And...

TROUBLED WATERS


Truly, he slept with the lady several times ... Later, the lady wanted more, but he had moved... And told her he was done with sin and sinning... But perhaps, his approach infuriated the lady... And she felt used and dumped... If you were the one, maybe, you will even feel worse... The same person that used to sleep with you now calling you devil... Just because he has encountered revival...

THE QUEUE


In 2016 during the festive period, i went to the bank to make some payments. It was my time going to that particular branch. I was pretty much a novice...i didn't know how they do things there. When i got in i met a short queue. I was the fifth person on the queue. If you have ever been to a Nigerian bank, long queues are a norm, and in the festive period, they are even longer. But surprisingly...

LOVE IS BLIND


For a long time I've had the concept of love all wrong. I was born into a world where "I love you" requires the "you" to do something for the 'I". Apostle Paul pointed out that love is blind....not literally though but it does chooses to be blind. Love chooses to be kind when you are not. Love chooses to hold on when it's not reciprocated. Love isn't proud neither does it segregate. Love isn't...

Looking back at the last 10 years of my life, I have come to realise that there's no assurance of a smooth ride in life - there will...
