The Symbiosis of Love Inspired by Newt and Callista Gingrich
Part 1
Newt and Callista Gingrich work in double harness like a scissors, the synergy of their love will be seen in their forthcoming movie, "We Have the Power."
It is a beautiful rainy day on Bonny Island and I am dressed to go to the bank. I called my publisher, who published the best selling book The Language of True Love. I asked him about the public reception of his new magazine Supple and he gave me the progress report. The success of Supple means a lot me and everyone who joined the publisher from the US and Nigeria to produce the maiden edition. Besides, my reputation is at stake since I got the Hollywood actress Veronique Pierre to be the columnist of the Hollywood Insider in Supple and I want her to be happy with the quality. The publisher said the vendors are already selling it in Central Lagos in Nigeria. Then I answered a call from Ghana from the pastor of the Assemblies of God Church in Finima on Bonny Island, Rivers State. He is on vacation with his family and they went to Ghana where their first son is schooling. "How's Ghana?" "Ghana is beautiful." "I will be in Ghana before the end of this year." With Nadia Buari on the cover, Supple magazine will be well received in Ghana. I gave the pastor my progress report so far and we thanked God for His goodness and mercies in our lives. I have fellowshipped with his church since I came to Bonny Island for my projects and joined them in planting new churches and preaching on the streets. The Deeper Christian Life Church taught me how to preach and the Holy Spirit gave the boldness to preach to thousands of commuters from the streets to the Damfo minibuses and Molue buses for 11 years before establishing my King of Kings Books International in 2000. I love sharing the Good News with absolute strangers and I was well received by all, including an Imam and other muslims. Having a passion for the salvation of souls and the wellbeing of others is the greatest love of all. But most of us are busy competing and looking for scores to settle with others while millions of souls are drifting away and perishing in ignorance.
When I called Q yesterday and found out that she has not been praying and she has not been reading the Holy Bible and she has not been going to Church, I was disappointed. I told her that without a spiritual connection between us, our love will not last. "Without the grace of God, I cannot love you," I told her. Every second of every minute of every hour of every day of every week of every month of every year is accountable unto God who alone gives us the breath of life on earth. We are alive, because of the grace of God. I have to make Q understand the grave consequences of not communicating with God. Without God, you are damned. I have known her for over two years and I want us to share the synergy of a symbiotic love, spiritually and physically. The spiritual is more important than the physical. The two of us cannot work together, except we agree. As much as I want the best for the person I love, she must share my faith with me, because our faith is our strength. Love cannot succeed without God. I have nothing of my own to give, if I do not receive from God. It would be good for her to be glad and grateful to God for the grace of our love. She has broken down in tears on two occasions and I had to pray for her healing and God healed her overnight. I actually tell God before I visit her and before I give her anything. God must permit me, because He is the God of my everything.
I left for the GTB on Bonny Island and saw the young banker I gave some dollars to deposit in my account and she said she had been too busy to leave her desk to do so and she was really very busy as there were many customers waiting for their turns to see her. I collected the money and deposited it. Then I deposited more money in my second account before leaving. The customer service was perfect today and there were some members of staff glancing at the TV nearby to view the 2008 Olympics soccer match between the US and Nigeria which Nigeria won by two goals to one. The victory of Nigeria must have made them happy. Today has been a beautiful day indeed.
