Kobojunkie:not really... Sometimes I'll dose off, just to open my eyes to see that I only slept for maybe 15 minutes... And that'll be all for that night |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by Kobojunkie: 3:49pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990:That is bad... you need to find sleep quickly so you do not end up worse off than when this first started. Please find sleeping pills or get a doctor to prescribe you good tranquilizers to help get your mind the rest it needs. Sleep for days or weeks if you can afford it. A well-rested mind is better able to tackle any and all of the problems of this life, than a restless mind as a restless mind is unable to clearly see that before it as it really is. 2 Likes |

Kobojunkie: Empty Rhetoric. Guess you're the only one on earth that belongs to Jesus. Abeg Shift. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by Kobojunkie: 3:57pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
WeNoGoDie:Nope... Jesus Christ's own Church exists but is not of this earth as it was built by Him and not by the hands of your Mogs, whose churches are instead built on a foundation strewn with the doctrines and traditions of men, that which Jesus Christ declared were lies and an abomination to God - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:07pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
Kobojunkie: You need to read John 14. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by Kobojunkie: 4:08pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:What do you expect for me to take away from the reading of that chapter? |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:10pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
Kobojunkie: Therein lies the answer to your below statement. There is no specific location given for Him.... He is God's Law , the very Word out of God's mouth. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:12pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990: Do you know where your brother and sisters are? You all need each other. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by Kobojunkie: 4:12pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:Answer? But my statement was not a question. I don't follow at all If you are referring to what Jesus Christ said of Him and the Father making their Home inside of those who live in continual submission to and obey His teachings, then sure. But realize that that is not there stated as the case for those who do not obey Him. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:13pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
Kobojunkie: The statement was inaccurate. Without proof. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by Kobojunkie: 4:18pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:No, the statement isn't inaccurate at all.. In John 15 vs 15 - 33, Jesus Christ explains that He and the Father will only make their home inside of those who live in continual submission and obedience of His teachings and commandments. Those who do not know of Him and those who refuse or disobey however, He does not live on the inside of. So where is Jesus Christ to be found by those who do not have Him living on the inside of them then? Jesus did not specify a geographic location of any kind as He explained that the Kingdom of God is inside and all around up, even under stones. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:31pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
Kobojunkie: How come you who claim to be a follower of Jesus Christ didn’t know that? There is no specific location given for Him.... He is God's Law , the very Word out of God's mouth Those who do not know of Him and those who refuse or disobey however, He does not live on the inside of. So where is Jesus Christ to be found by those who do not have Him living on the inside of them then? All they need to do is seek and they shall find if they’re willing. It is matter of will, not force. Jesus did not specify a geographic location of any kind as He explained that the Kingdom of God is inside and all around up, even under stones. We’re talking about finding God. Read John 4 |

mariahAngel:they are in Lagos, while my brother is still in the village.... My plan is to bring him to come stay with me, but even myself it's not finding it easy, to eat sometimes it's even a problem... (Me and him do speak once in a while) the last time I saw him was in 2008 |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:36pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990: You both need to be together more than anything. You need him as much as he needs you. where are you located again? |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by pstemma1990: 4:38pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:in Nasarawa state, 20 minutes drive to Abj. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:40pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990: Well, you need to leave that place as there’s hardly any opportunities there. First of all, save up some money and go locate your brother. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by Kobojunkie: 4:41pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:1. Mistake ! That is supposed to be John 14 vs 15 - 33 instead. As for your question, I didn't claim that I didn't know this. My statement was that there is no specific geographical location for where to find Jesus Christ. 2. When seeking, we assume we have to narrow our search to particular location , and this is why the other asked where else Jesus Christ could be found if not not churches. And that is where I stated that there is no geographical location where Jesus Christ is concerned because the Kingdom of God is all around us and everywhere, not in man-made structures. 3. Yes, there is no geographical location specified for "finding" God. He is God - He is everywhere, even under a rock. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by pstemma1990: 4:43pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:thanks, I sincerely appreciate... The plan is to bring him to come stay with me, and not going to him... There's nothing for me in the village... Just praying for an open door, my little business has been down for sometimes, once things settles I'll definitely bring him. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 4:50pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990: You’re welcome. Ok. Think about moving to Jos with him. I think there are better opportunities there (in Jos) than Nasarawa. The problem could be the environment and not you. What business are you into? |

mariahAngel:don't have anyone in Jos, only attended a wedding there around 2010.... I do palm sandals... Easy wear both for male and female... But my machine was stolen early this year, and cost of materials is also very expensive these days... |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 5:03pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990: You need to make up your mind to leave that place. There’s hardly anything for you there. How much do you charge to make a pair of sandals? |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by pstemma1990: 5:06pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
mariahAngel:3k to 4k depending on the design.. if I have any opportunity somewhere trust me I won't hesitate before going... It's not as if I have anything doing here at the moment.... Just that I'm familiar with the environment, can even survive without money for weeks or months.... Seriously looking for something, I can as well drive very well.. |
Re: Nairalanders Pls I Need A Word Of Encouragement by mariahAngel(f): 5:11pm On Aug 18, 2021 |
pstemma1990: Well, the environment is holding you back. pstemma1990: Here in Lagos, you can charge up to 6k-7k (or even more, depending on how modern your designs are and your location) for a pair... that is, if you’re very good at what you do. You need to explore other places, but you can still source your material from the north as they’re cheaper there. 1 Like |

pstemma1990: Our human nature has made us very sensitive to our circumstances...when the times are good we are happy and when it goes south we get depressed! And as long as we have this nature only a change in our circumstances can bring happiness but I can give you a couple of thoughts that linger in my head when I'm feeling depressed and blue. 1. There is someone out there going through worse. Always realize your are not alone. Suffering, pain and displeasure are common in this world. Even the Bible says "man that is born of a woman is of a few days and full of trouble" 2. There is a purpose for your birth here on earth and that purpose is worth living and fighting far There is no effect without a cause. Your birth on earth is not an accident rather it is by design. It would be a tragedy if you exit this world without finding your purpose and living it. 3. if there is a God, then you must give account If there is an examiner of your life on earth would you like to appear before Him empty with nothing show for the years you spent in the land of the living? 4. There is a time for everything ...a time to cry, a time to laugh, a time to work, a time for leisure...a time to be depressed, a time to be joyous. If you believe this you will keep up the fight knowing that your time to laugh, rest and be happy is coming. But you must realize that what you sow is what your reap. If you want the times of mercy to come for you you must have mercy on others. If you want the times of joy to come for you you must make others joyful. 5. There are benevolent and malevolent forces working for and against you Always realize that some events will be beyond your comprehension and while some will be in your favor others may be to your destruction. Always recognise the power of these forces to shape your future! 3 Likes |
