{FLESH}

Weren't THEY there to help FLESH say NO to that tempting YES... Two they say is better than one but THEY let only FLESH decide.....

FLESH get the boots from father because FLESH and FAITH dont really agree much.

FAITH is a sterotype who only dwells with SPIRIT and SOUL... Even when FLESH needs FAITH, FAITH definately failed him..

Sunday service we were taught forgiveness again!

forgiveness is deep, how can i forgive who i dont know. When they were homeless i was their shelter but now they treat me like a project{abandond buildings}

they couldnt walk i gave them my legs. Two head they say is better than one i gave them mine. Billions of humans are currently walking the earth and you still feel like you are all alone.

walked in the rain just so the umbrella will cover them real good. Went hungry so they'd be full. Was ready to give my life so they'd live.

FORGIVENESS easy to say. Pastor says FORGIVE THEM.

DEAR LORD IN A WORLD FULL OF HATE GIVE ME THE GRACE AND STRENGTH TO SHOW LOVE

To those on street. To those wey don waka sote their feet sore. To all those going to bed with an empty stomach with no hope of what to eat.

to those with no shelter like we, steady praying that night comes and goes quick, because they got no where to sleep.

i urge you to find strength in your weaknes. Find love in their hate, find peace in war, find life in death, find good in bad. Stay grinding, even when it feels impossible, say to yourself it is posible

do that dirty job as far it is legit. Drop pride pick up humility. Work hard but work smarter. When life throws that block at you, use it to build a wall.

couple of push up every morning just to strengthen the body soul and spirit. Keep your mind and thoughts guarded. Trust me so many sickening things will fly pas the mind. Do not noture it. Garbage in garbage out, dont let that evil thought have a dwelling place.

words cut deeper than knives but grow a tough skin because they wil surely talk.

stay focus! Believe! Work! Pray! Guard your reputation

DAY 108

Just got back to the house. Something about today, i cant really place my finger on it.

today is their market day. Missed 10am prayer meeting{had it in my mind. God go understand}

yesterday evening was crazy, the man i went to his house to wash his car, paid me and invited me in for dinner. imagine poor man wey dem give rice and chicken dey chop remain couldnt even crack the bones of the chicken. E pain me sha

we eventually had that conversation. She is a grad, studied csc, she a muslim but not a regular mosque goer, zodiac sign cancer. Things got weird when she asked about my family{this is a part i hate to talk about cause after tellin the next thing they will ask is "and what are you doing here"?} so i lied. Tried as much as possible to avoid any TURKEY that concerns my past.

6pm is another prayer session and i cant wait for 8pm got an appointment cheesy

1 corinthians 10:13


no temptation has overtaken you except such as is common to man; but God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted beyond what you are able, but with the temptation will also make the way of escape, that you may be able to bear it

James 1:12-15


12 blessed is the man who endures temptation, for when he has been proved, he will receive the crown of life which the lord has promised to those who love him

13 let no one say when he is tempted "i am tempted by GOD"; for GOD cannot be tempted by evil nor does he himself tempt anyone.

14 but each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed

15 then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin, and sin when full-grown brings forth death

Re: The Diary of a Cheap labourer (Daily Bread) by Nobody: 2:47am On Dec 15, 2021


i like this person i am becoming but some others dont approve, i feel like i am getting smarter and more aware of what i do.

time heals all wound and reveals some true colours. Most friends we make in life aint as tight as sisters and brothers.

though in times of despair, we all thrive to be optimistic. Some hide their pains and struggles, while others choose to deal with it.

my life is a movie, critics everywhere sit and enjoy it. When the curtains close the truh is exposed behind the scenes.

lack of support from those i thought would ride for me. But it isnt my loss, i have seen many turn people away, from those they envy only because they just fear being replaced.

i do find it crazy being a target or the topic of discussions to get the excitement started in the heart of those who make me feel like i have been exploited

early morning brainstorming i cant sleep. Most times i wish i could turn back the hands of time but the pains just worsens

i'd only see my goals as a problem. When i get denied, i'd feel low and unworthy. I am try hard to keep my sanity like christains with bibles.

Bro, I don't know what to say to you but encourage you just like you're doing in some of your posts.

I'm actually 19, served a man for 3 years, after going through hell mentally and physically. I had to make my move. I had and still have nothing but love. I worked in a Chinese company, honestly imagine being paid 85 naira a day. I trekked a long distance to work.

Got paid for that month, my cousin got in talk with my sis, I'm swashing with him now. Bro, I don't wanna talk about what I've been through at such a young age, I haven't seen my mom for years due to the "Nwaboi".

I can't even afford it, I bought an itel phone, I use it to make songs and post on YouTube. I don't even know how to describe how that feeling and pain right now. You're a strong man.

Let's keep grinding.

They graded the road on saturday.. Too much dust... You cant stay out for 5mins without dustina hugging you. All the bike guys be looking like they tinted their hair and brow

anyway thanks to the dust i made sharp 1500 plus a can trophy{dont judge me am drinking for my often infirmities <bible>}.
There is this bar along the road, close to the church. At times the owner comes to get water in the church.

i helped her wet the road, the deal was every 3hrs i'd wet it. Got the holes in the church around 12pm did the first spraying! Same thing around 3pm.. For my 6pm shift i had help from a boy who just really wants to play with the holes.

i already told her to pay me whatever her mind tells her. I had my mind on 5h. When she wanted to pay one of her customers told her not to bother he pulled out 1,500 gave it to me and ask me to take a drink. Gave my assistant 5h

Sleep is far from the eyes! Had to walk round the compound. My head is all over the place. Really dont know if it is anxiety or am losing focus. Rather than worry why not make plans. But it feels like the plans seem to be my worries.

i had the same dream. Read the bible psalm 109.

am not alone, i think i been monitored
it is all in my head. Talking to myself is becoming a norm
