THE PRICE FOR GREATNESS

Image
Indeed everyone wants to be great but not everyone has what it takes to be great and not everyone is willing to pay the price to attain some levels of greatness. A number of people really have it in them to be great, but they are not just willing or capable to give what it takes to get there. Some just sit around and day-dream about the kind of greatness they want, they expect that it will just come to them. While I believe in the activities of supernatural forces capable of acting against the progress of man, I also believe that man himself could be and most times is the cause of his own failure. What a man does or doesn’t definitely determines what direction a man goes on the path of greatness and to what extent he can go. This brings to principles that point one in the way of greatness. Some of those principles include but not limited to ·          Hard Work ·          Diligence · ...

THE PURSUIT OF PURPOSE

Image
In the journey of life, it is essential to discover one’s self. Self-discovery is the very first step in the journey towards fulfilment. It gives you a clear picture of who you are and who you’re meant to be. Without discovering fir yourself, who you are, you cannot make any significant progress in life and in destiny. A lot of people just go on the journey of life without bothering to find out who they are and who they meant to be, they just go about life’s business casually, they sleep, wake up, eat, go out, come in, and keep expecting that things will work out well, this kind of people are quite situational about life, they are victims of circumstances, they just accept what life poses at them, they get tossed to and fro by life’s challenges. Self- Discovery places you on the path of destiny. Next in line to self-discovery purpose discovery. This is having a knowledge of what you are meant to be and what you’re meant to do, to live a fulfilled life. I’ll say finding your purpo...

DAUGHTER OF DISHONOUR

Image
I was at a meeting not too long ago when this topic dropped in my heart. No disrespect to the female gender, it's just born out of revelation. They say "your attitude determines your altitude". This is very true in every sense of the statement. They way and manner you behave and react to issues and to life determines how far and how high you can go in life. Not only that, you attitude also says a lot about who you are and what you're capable of doing, although a lot of people pretend and hide their true nature and character, but situations will always expose who you really are. Such is the case of The Queen Vashti who dishonoured the King, simply because she felt too proud. On the seventh day, when the heart of the king was merry with wine, he commanded Mehuman, Biztha, Harbona, Bigtha, Abagtha, Zethar, and Carcas, seven eunuchs who served in the presence of King Ahasuerus, to bring Queen Vashti before the king, wearing her royal crown, in order to show her be...

DON'T YOU LIKE MEETING PEOPLE?

Image
That was the question this beautiful friend of mine "Doja" asked me on that lovely Monday morning as we walked towards our respective places of assignment. This wasn't a strange question, but I wonder why I couldn't give her a straight answer. Here is what I found out, I hope it speaks to someone reading this. I realised that most of us just hide in our shells in the name of principles, decorum, integrity and all other excuses we give, but in actual sense, what holds us back from breaking out is timidity and fear. Fear of what people will think, fear of what they'll say, fear of how they'll look at us and all that. Little do we know that we sideline ourselves from the fun in life, we just sit there in the dark corners if our mind, viewing the world only through the windows of our eyes, when we ought to enjoy creation, spirit, soul and body. I have also cone to understand that those who fall into this kind of category tend to judge others without ac...

BUT THOSE WHO MINISTER UNTO GOD

Image
 But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and] they shall walk, and not faint.\ Isaiah 40:31 (King James Version) I was studying not too long ago when this revelation hit me and I was wowed. Until lately I simply had a base understanding of the scripture quoted above. I never understood in depth what it really meant, but glory to God, I have the Holy Spirit. Journey with me as I try to share what I learnt from this experience of mine. Have you ever thought about what the scripture means when it said "they that wait upon the Lord"? Have you ever considered that you may have misinterpreted that scripture. What does it mean to "wait upon someone? What is it's significance? and what is it's likely result? Note: I am not saying that there aren't diverse revelations to this scripture, this is simply a piece of my understanding. Now, to wait u...

RELATIONSHIP GIST with MUYIWA ADIGUN 25.02.18

Image
My first encounter with Muyiwa Adigun was in 2017, November I think. That was at a relationship program organised by my fellowship. I have never met someone who could teach the dynamics and wisdom of relationships with such simplicity, practicality and wisdom like him. It was amazing listening to him. He simply brought a while new perspective to the subject of relationship. Now it’s not like I didn’t know some of this things before, but I got to a whole new level of understanding. That is why when I heard of this program he organised, I didn’t hesitate, moreover “Lade” invited me, I really didn’t have much of a choice…#lol.   I recommend that you read and digest this post, which is exclusively from my jotter. Still on "Living The Life". The first step before going into any relationship is SELF DISCOVERY. You should not go into any relationship if you have not discovered yourself/your purpose. You must know yourself, you must identify who you are. You sho...
