GOODBYE TO MY FRIENDS?

Image
Being Born again - 3 words Conversion - 3 syllables Every human seek friendship, we all want to have someone or people who can catch us when we fall. We want to be connected with friends and it is categorically so because we were created for true friendship. In fact, I can say the cross is certainly the most heroic act of friendship in history. As believers, many of us have to face the issues of pulling away from the "friends" we used to have while we were in the world or our friends end up pulling away from us. More than anything, there is a reason you were saved, you are placed there like a light to shine in the darkness where you used to be.  Sometimes, Christians still drown in their old ways, they are drowning in their old ways because they are not surrounded by the right people. Many are keen on satisfying their friends but the scripture says  “If you come to me but will not leave your family, you cannot be my follower. You must love me more than your father, m...

CONSISTENCY AND COMMITMENT WITH SEUNFUNMI OKUNTOLA

Image
A lot of times, a hard task may look like a challenge from a far. The closer you get, the more you realize it is probably not worth your time and effort but the fact is this; "Its all about perspective". It all lies in what you choose to view as a challenge and what you understand to be impossible. Many of us have fallen into the procrastination trap too many times when it comes to doing the more challenging things every day. Its time to level up our game and commit to our goals every single day. Here is Seunfunmi Okuntola, she will be sharing her story on consistency and commitment. Oluwaseunfunmi Okuntola. Hi there! My name is Oluwaseunfunmi, Over the past year, I would say that this has been the toughest year for me, not 2020 particularly but from last year. The past one year and a couple of months has been crazy; I had so many things happening and I know that for a very long period, I wasn't in the right mental, emotional and physical space because I have been in and ...

THE FORGIVENESS PATH

Image
Truth be told, forgiving can be difficult but that's when you try to do it on your own without the help of God. I'm sure you must have been hurt one way or the other, perhaps by parents constant criticism, a friend who betrayed you, that mean colleague at work, your boss who makes you feel less of a person, that person who abused you (emotionally, sexually or physically). Living with hurt can result into different unpleasant things like resentment, bitterness or even vengeance. Some of us used to/now have a Doctorate degree in keeping malice and resenting others, this is apparently what comes out of being unforgiving - You become an expert in resenting people. For so many years, I was angry with God. A lot of things weren't right with my life and my family, so I took years of my life focusing on the things he was yet to do instead of thanking him for the ones he had done. I was angry because I felt my life didn't turn out the way I thought it should. I felt I deserved b...

GOD WHEN?

Image
God When?  This is one of the most frequently asked questions of the single folks on the internet. Today, when a couple post pictures of themselves on the internet, you'd see the "Single Pringles " go "God when?", you watch a movie with a lot of romance scenes in it, you go "Awww, God When?" Everyone wants to be in a relationship, every human wants to be loved; that's who we are as humans, we want to be desirable, we want to mean something valuable to someone.  The funny thing about the "God When Peoples Club" is that some of you are not quite good with maintaining ordinary friendship and you think you can handle what a romantic relationship comes with, sorry to burst your bubbles darling, but No! It doesn't work that way.  Some want to be in a relationship when they are yet to love themselves (this comes in place when you have an established relationship with God). You can only love someone e...

CHRISTIAN, SINGLE AND HORNY

Image
One of the many things they never tell us as Christian singles is our sexual desire, being "horny". Most people do not want to talk about it, perhaps, it's meant to be discussed by the married folks. Some have termed this wrong, profane and unholy but don't we need to start talking about this more than ever? Being horny simply means being sexually hungry. What do you do when you're hungry? Eat, yeah? But as a Christian single, you can't eat this meal because it is meant for the married folks. God is the chef of this meal, to be consummated in marriage. In a generation were you have porn all over the internet, it takes the grace of God not to lose your Holy Ghost common sense. Many people think Christian singles do not feel the urge to have sex, many think since the Holy Ghost lives in you, you shouldn't be horny - Leemao Your hormones do not change when you give your life to Christ, they do not even care if you're in Christ or not - ve...
