DISCERNING THE TIME

Have you ever prayed over a matter but seems you werent heard? Have you being trusting God for something and delay is what you've got for an answer? Are you long over-due for something? Are you at the verge of throwing the towel? Are you giving up right now? Do you think God never hears prayers anymore? Do you think God is always too late or too slow in response to your yearnings? Yeah, i can go on and on asking those questions in your heart...may be you are even doubting the existence of God right now.. You know what? #smiles#... those malicious questions would give no answer to the longings of your heart. May be you should ask yourself, is there something i dont understand about the person of God and his moves? Sure! "The race is not to the swift.....TIME AND CHANCE HAPPEN TO THEM ALL! God walks with time!... in his timing, he's never too late nor too fast. He's just too accurate! Delay sometimes is God's silent way of saying " o boy wait, i'm working out something better than you desire right now" Wow!!! Isnt that thrilling? Men spread mats but God spreads his rugs ..You desire a car, God says "o girl, if you'll be patient for a moment, i Will not give you that car" but you frown....he then pauses and says "my girl i'll give you a private Jet!" ...You probably told God... look i'm well out of age, give me any man and he says "Dear, If you can be a little more patient I will not only give you THE man...but 'll also make sure he's THE BEST Man" what about that? Wow!!! The moment you told him about that "stuff"...he heard you but he decides when to do it. You dont decide for Him,He decides for you, more importantly if you are special to him. You can not rush God...."He makes all things beautiful in his Time". Your mid-night weepings and your early morning complaints wouldnt hasten him or delay him..."The vision is yet for an appointed Time" Common! That is who he is...he is not forming. That is just HIM! For everything you desire, there is an appointed time...discern the Time!!! You wanna start a business? Discern the Time! You wanna launch into a ministry? Common! Time!! You wanna travel? Time!!! Praying for a life partner? Discern the Time! Time!! Time!!! People struggle or make mistakes in life when they are either ahead of God's timing or behind. Why? Because,there's time for everything under heavens. Guess what? constant practice of faith gives you an assurance of peace and activates the Time. Your timing is as important as your destiny!..you dont want to miss it. Stay connected!

WHEN TO SAY GOODBYE!

You must have probably been under a teaching where you were taught to value relationships, keep friends as much as you can, cherish relationships and do all you can to keep them. Hmmm, nice as it may, but have you ever found yourself in any relationship where you have tried everything you could call your best and yet everything seems to be falling apart? All effort keep proving abortive and you wonder if there is anything else you could do even long after you must have done somethings you shouldnt have done all in the name of Love. Many singles are choked up with frustrating issues in their relationships; you have tried helping a fiance who is seriously struggling with masturbation, a fiancee who shows no respect or care for you in anyway, a spouse who mal-treats and beats you despite the fact that you are not married yet, she keeps taking you for granted and all you could say is I love her, but she does not. He/she is as unstable as water and never keeps to his/her words for once. You have caught him or her cheating on you several times and he/she keeps saying I didnt want to do it, I did it under pressure. He keeps pressurizing you to do things outside your will(sex), You have deposited all your love in his love bank and he is yet to deposit a drop in yours but you console yourself thinking of trying harder, you have been abused both physically and mentally, yet you think "maybe my best is not enough" Hmmm...it's over a decade now since you both have been in the relationship and he has never introduced you to any important person in life(family members, friends, pastor etc) hmmm..... Dear, it is high time you made a sincere decision on saying a bold goodbye to that frustrating and abusive relationship. Good day. #Signed GOSPIRATIONAL QUOTE If I have seen farther than others, it's because I have stood on the shoulder of

THE JOURNEY THROUGH SELF DISCOVERY

Somebody once said the wealthiest place on the surface of the earth is the grave. Hmm, that sounds farmiliar right? Sure you've this time and times without number. That is simply the catholic truth. Excuse me, dont tell me you are already on the grave of one of your forefathers, trying to dig deep perhaps you could find his gold or diamond. smiles, if that is what you thinking of doing, you will only dig and continue digging till day break only to find his dry bones. The wealth of the graveyard is not tangible. You cannot see or feel it, it lies with and within the dead man lieing in there. Every potential that would have actualy made him great while alive has been buried with him and the grave the grave which can not make any use of it has it. Finding out who you are is the very first step towards success. The journey kicks off by providing anwswers to these questions; who am I? What do I carry?(potentials), what motivates me? What makes me happy when I do it? The challenge here is that each of us must roll up our sleeves, get into shorts and with the power of the mind, dig deep to discover who exactly we are and what exactly we want to become in life. This is one major task that cannot be delegated to anyone. A truly successful and fulfilled person starts with clarity of purpose. Your discovery about you must be clear enough. You should be excited about your person, your goal, yout passion, your future, your destiny after the successful discovery about you. Larry Izamoje said, " If you have passion for anything, you have reduced the long to success". Many of us get into courses of study that we had no business doing in the first place. I know we can't change that anymore. The question is, deep inside your heart of heart, would you have pursued that line of career? If No, engage the power of your mind so as to discover the real you. Self discovery gives us absolute liberty. Liberty to choose friends that best suit our pursuit, our career, our life partner and more. Self discovery is a journey, take a step now! Have yourself a great day. #Signed INSPIRATIONAL QUOTE: You can not know your ability until you let loose your potential. Temitope Olaleye

GET INVOLVED!

Many people want to achieve great things in life; often times,we hear statements like, I'd like to be like this or that person, we admire these people, we envy them, we love their cars and houses. In short, we wish we were in their shoes but the truth is people who make such elaborate wishes are neither ready mentally nor physically to pay the price. Many of us crave for one miracle or the other concerning certain areas of our lives yet we seldom connecting with God through our faith. We want something to happen without our involvement. God isnt a magician. You'd better get up and attend that crusade! Likewise, in our chosen career some of us desire to climb the corporate ladder to the very top but wouldnt make any effort to know how and what is required to get there. We fold our alms and yet hope for the best. No, it wouldnt work that way. I've read autobiographies and biographies of some of the most successful men and women in Nigeria and one thing i've been able to discover thus far is that they only tell us about their humble beginnings and probably the end of the story(their achievements or success). What happens between the beginning and the ending, we dont know. The attitude is that you fill in the gap your self. I am not unaware that it took them days, months or perhaps years and real hard work to get to where they are today. That is the detail of the story that they wouldnt want to disclose cheaply to anyone. It cost them a lot. They were involved in the process of their own making. You dont leave every thing to God, you should cooperate with him so as to bring you to your expected end. Be your own angel. God needs your cooperation. Your destiny needs your involvement. A folded arm is a folded destiny. What are you doing right now about your career, your calling, your potential or talent,your passion? Where do you intend to find yourself in the next five years and how do you intend to get there? These are vital questions that should be answered by action and not by mere words. Your lecturers or mentors may not tell you everything about the "how" factor and that is why you must make deliberate intelligent effort in making sure that your goals are achieved. It is high time you woke up from your slumber. You must be a smart Hardworker. Go to the street of Lagos State and you will agree that many people are actually working very hard with nothing to show for it. Smart hardwork provides you the details and platform for real success. Do the right thing at the right time...seek for details in your area of specialization and get started today. Get involved! Have a great day. #Signed.

WHAT ARE YOUR CORE VALUES?

WHAT ARE YOUR CORE VALUES? Each of us has his own set of values; beliefs,principles or morals that we hold so dear and these are what act as pointers to how we view life or what we attach much or less importance to. What are your personal core values? What are those pillars of principle or beliefs you have errected to build your life on? What is your philosophy about life? How do you view life and the people you are surrounded with? What is your, attitude towards you,life and the people in your life? The source of our core values ranges from the influence of our parents, guardian, counsellor, teacher, mentor, role model, society, friends, books, neighbor, church and so on have upon us. These values we have gathered overtime,either conciously or unconciously help to determine our person, ou taste,our attitude,altitude and way of life. Can you quickly do something right now? Pick a pen and a paper, then write out the core values you have held on to overtime. This may change anyway because I,know by the time you have gone through these words, you might eventually have a re-think.#winks. The reason is because our values are liable to change as we grow depending on how they have added to our lives, positively or negatively. As we approach different stages of our lives or have different experiences in life, some of our values will bow to other values which may either make or mar our deatiny. What you hold in high esteem tells us where you are heading to and what your targets are. You are what your core values are! People who do not have respect for details, people, good relationships tend to live in isolation, pushing blames on people for not loving or care for them. Moreover, people with good taste, high morals, true values attract a replica of them. It is that simple! You can not expect the Daughter of the President to go out with someone who looks like a mechanic. But do,you also know that she can eventually go out with a mechanic if he sure looks like the son of an ambassador. It is all about what hold as values. It is all about how you present yourself to others and how you want them to view you. What core values can be seen through you? Today, I encourage you to add up the true values and shed off the bad ones. Remember, this can only be achieved deliberately. Have a great day! #Signed
