Saturday January 30 “My son [my daughter], be wise, and make my heart glad.” Pr 27:11 NKJV Trust must be earned Here’s a magic bullet that teenagers like to use in order to manipulate their parents: “You don’t trust me!” So we start backpedaling. “No, dear, it’s not that I don’t trust you being out with your friends or taking the car, it’s just that I…” and then we run out of words. We’re on the defensive, and the discussion is over. The truth is that we can trust our children at some things, but not others. It’s not an all-or-nothing proposition. For example, many of us are authorized to spend our company’s money from certain accounts. But they don’t give us the whole corporate checkbook! So let’s stop being suckered by our kids, and boldly state that trust comes in stages—some of it now, and more later on. Humorist and author Mark Twain joked, “When a child turns twelve you should put him in a barrel, nail a lid down and feed him through a knothole. When he turns sixteen, you should seal up the knothole.” Seriously, there are times when every parent feels this way. But at some point you’ve got to let out the line and begin to trust them. And here are two important things about trust: First, It must be age-appropriate. You should risk only what you can reasonably expect to be handled safely. Second, trust must be earned. Erma Bombeck once quipped that she wasn’t going to pay $2000 to straighten the teeth of a kid who never smiled. What’s going on inside your youngster explains much of what you see on the outside. Relax, better days are coming! |
Won't the man & his family eat again nii? Abeg, let him report anything that is reportable. Naa him business, or you guys have another means of feeding for him? |
Thanks for the words of wisdom/advice to our arrogant ladies. |
Done. I've started experiencing it already. Example: Wiki about Germany Germany - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia ABOUT: Germany (/ˈdʒɜːrməni/; German: Deutschland [ˈdɔʏtʃlant]), officially the Federal Republic of Germany (German: Bundesrepublik Deutschland, listen ), is a federal parliamentary republic in West-Central Europe. It includes 16 constituent states and covers an area of 357,021 square kilometres (137,847 sq mi) with a largely temperate seasonal climate. Its capital and largest city is Berlin. With about 81.5 million inhabitants, Germany is the most populous member state in the European Union. After the United States, it is the second most popular migration destination in the world. |

Friday January 29 “Encourage him, and strengthen him.” Dt 3:28 Today, encourage someone Encouragement can work miracles. In the movie Stand and Deliver, high school teacher Jaime Escalante has two students in his class named Johnny. One is a happy child and an excellent student; the other spends his time goofing off and getting into trouble. When the Parent Teacher Association held its first meeting of the year, a mother came up to Jaime and asked, “How’s my son, Johnny, getting along?” Jaime mistakenly assumed she was the mom of the better student, so he replied, “I can’t tell you how much I enjoy him. I’m so glad he’s in my class.” The next day “problem Johnny” came to Jaime and said, “My mom told me what you said about me last night. I haven’t ever had a teacher who wanted me in his class.” The result? He completed his assignments that day, and brought in his completed homework the next morning. A few weeks later he had become one of Jaime’s hardest-working students—and one of his best friends. His life had been turned around because of an accidental word of encouragement. It works like this: When you look for good in a person and express it, you give them something to live up to. In other words, you motivate them to be better than they are. The last thing God told Moses to do was to encourage and strengthen Joshua “for he shall go over before this people, and he shall cause them to inherit the land which thou shalt see” (v. 28). And here’s the great thing about encouragement: You don’t have to be rich, attractive, prominent, or brilliant to give it, and it’s always appreciated. So today, encourage someone. |
OK now |
Nice one. God bless you as you remember your mother for good. I'm really proud of you. |
Thursday January 28 “When they could not find a way…they went up on the roof.” Lk 5:19 NIV Bringing people to Jesus (3) When you pick up the weight of another person, it can be a heavy burden to bear. Notice: (1) It took four people to bring this man to Jesus. Sometimes you have to call in reinforcements. When you’ve prayed for someone and nothing seems to be happening, here’s a great Scripture: “If two of you on earth agree about anything you ask for, it will be done for you by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name, there am I with them” (Mt 18:19-20 NIV). (2) It was their faith, not the sick man’s faith that Jesus responded to. “When Jesus saw their faith, he said, ‘Friend, your sins are forgiven’” (Lk 5:20 NIV). The poor guy had been in this condition for so long that his faith was probably as dead as his limbs. But that’s no problem for God; He’ll respond to your faith by touching your loved one. (3) They refused to give up on him. You need tenacious faith that refuses to quit. Just because you talked to someone about the Lord before and they didn’t respond, doesn’t mean they won’t respond now. Maybe they weren’t ready back then, and now their circumstances have changed. Maybe you went about it the wrong way, and now you have a better approach. The point is, when you do your part, God will do His. “So let’s not allow ourselves to get fatigued doing good. At the right time we will harvest a good crop if we don’t give up, or quit” (Gal 6:9 TM). |
Jesus paid his tax, and it shows that His father in heaven even recognise it too by providing the fund through the mouth of the fish. Alfred200825: |
Are they not? Most churches this days are business centre. Bookshops, restaurants and halls for hire for parties or ceremonies. BALLOSKI: |
Yes. I'm in support of churches and mosque paying taxes to the government. And this will be a great test for them both, because we don't expect any house of God to deny their income to the government. Accountability period is here. ![]() |
Wednesday January 27 “They came…bringing a paralytic…carried by four.” Mk 2:3 NKJV Bringing people to Jesus (2) Some people have to be “carried” to Jesus because they can’t get to Him by themselves. Like the man in the story, they are paralyzed. “Paralyzed by what?” you ask. Paralyzed by an out-of-control behavior. Paralyzed by a belief system that tells you you’re too sinful for God to ever love and redeem you. Paralyzed by the memory of something that happened in your childhood and now you’re afraid to talk about it. Paralyzed by an addiction to illegal substances, prescription drugs, gambling, pornography, alcohol, work, or money. Whatever your addiction—one thing is for sure—it’s paralyzing. You can be paralyzed by fear, anxiety, depression, a bottomed-out sense of self-worth, or a nightmarish childhood of neglect and abuse. On the other hand, you can be a self-made man or woman paralyzed by success, materialism, greed, self-absorption—not acknowledging any need in your life for God. Is any of this hitting close to home? Jesus began His ministry with these words: “The Spirit of the Lord is upon Me, because He has anointed Me to preach the gospel to the poor; He has sent Me to heal the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives and recovery of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed; to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord” (Lk 4:18-19 NKJV). The New Living Translation Bible paraphrases the latter part of verse nineteen by saying, “The time of the Lord’s favor has come.” Here’s the good news! Life may not always have been good to you, but God’s grace and smile of favor can change all of that—starting today. |
ojun50:prison warders no wan cooperate? How? |
I wish him well though. |
You stole the public funds and you went into hiding, how does that make a sense? How are you going to enjoy this wealth? ![]() |
There's no prove that link the church to the crime now. We were only told that there's a church close by. So, people should not conclude that the church has anything to do with it. ![]() |
IzonOwei:Bros, why the anger now? Instead, give us name of those you think he's sparing. |
Picture of him please! ![]() |
ourchoice:Well, I'm not sure if Buhari or this administration will spare anyone even in his cabinet without exposing them. It's just a matter of time, and besides, it will be a signal to ministers and directors under his watch that no one will be spared if found wanting. |
ourchoice:Now you are upset? A bi? Whenever PDP get to power too let them witch hunt whoever they think is corrupt. For now, let this administration continue with their cleanliness. |
anonimi:The problem with such like you are, you guys are too sentimental. We are talking about corrupt politicians and public office holder stealing the country wealth dry, and you continue fuming over an irrelevant excuses instead of supporting the government to bring the corruption down to zero level. Listen, even if it is going to fighting of corruption alone this government will do for 4 years, I don't mind. Corruption has so much eaten up this country and reduced us to nothing. Why will idiots thieves be taking money out of this country to buy or build properties in another man's land and not developing this country? Of what benefits will it be for the Nigerians when the likes of Larmode and others be taking money abroad instead of using the money to build develop Nigeria and to create employment for her citizens? If truly we need to move forward in this country, we really need to fight this corruption to a stand still. |
