OP,planes dont come with reverse. You either push it back or tow it to your desired position. There are vehicles designed for the operation, however.

some planes, not all of them. Some still reverse to taxi around before taking off.

Christmas Eve – Thursday December 24

“They saw the child…and worshiped him.”  Mt 2:11 NIV

This Christmas, look for Jesus

The Wise Men couldn’t have imagined humbler circumstances than those surrounding the birth of Jesus. Max Lucado paints the picture: “The ground is hard, the hay scarce. Cobwebs cling to the ceiling…Mary looks into the face of her Son. Her Lord. His Majesty. At this point the human being who best understands who God is and what He’s doing, is a teenage girl…She remembers the angel’s words, ‘His kingdom will never end.’ Majesty in the midst of the mundane. Honor in the filth of manure and sweat. Divinity entering the world on the floor of a stable. This baby had once overlooked the universe. His robes of eternity were exchanged for the rags keeping Him warm. His golden throne room abandoned in favor of a dirty sheep pen. Worshipping angels replaced with shepherds. Meanwhile the city hums, unaware that God has visited their planet. The innkeeper would never believe he’d just sent God out into the cold. And people would scoff at anyone who told them the Messiah lay in the arms of a teenager on the outskirts of their village. They were all too busy to consider the possibility. But those who missed His Majesty’s arrival that night missed it not because of acts of evil or malice. No, they missed it because they weren’t looking for Him!” This Christmas, in the midst of the toys, the tinsel, and the tumult, stop and look for Jesus. If you know Him as your Lord and Savior, take time to worship Him. And if you don’t, make Him your Lord and Savior. If you do, it’ll be the best Christmas you’ve ever had.

MelancholicGuy:
Why should I publicise it on NL?

it's a kind of testimony. Like in the church nii. Or, are we not suppose to thank or praise the Lord with you nii?

Demmocrats:
After staying in Nigeria and going abroad, you will find out that for you to succeed in abroad is as ABC since nigeria is like war zone that has given you all the skills to survive.

Exactly. Nigeria is a training ground. Lol

Osinachiadinma:
Orthe wife called his people black monkeys to his hearing.You never can tell

....hummmmm! I don't think she would do that?

One thing I think will be the man is tired of living in UK, and knowing that his white wife will not follow him to leave in Nigeria with their kids, he did other wise.

It is well.

“Listen for God’s voice…he’s the one who will keep you on track.”  Pr 3:6 TM

Is it God’s plan?

After being anointed king of Israel, instead of immediately going to Jerusalem and claiming his throne, David was forced to spend years living like a fugitive and hiding in caves because Saul was out to take his life. More than once he must have asked himself, “What about the promise God gave me?” Then an interesting thing happened. One of David’s soldiers found Saul asleep; he came to David, saying, “God has delivered your enemy into your hand…let me strike him” (1Sa 26:8 NKJV). What an opportunity! Get rid of the man who wants to kill you, come out of hiding, and claim your throne. After all, you’re already anointed to be king! It all made sense, except for one thing—it wasn’t God’s plan. As much as David wanted to rule Israel, he knew that in order to succeed he must do it God’s way. This story should make you think twice, and pray before acting. When Abishai offered to kill Saul, he had David’s welfare at heart. So be careful; your friends can give you advice contrary to God’s will. That’s when it’s hard not to go along with it, or defend your decision by rationalizing that the end justifies the means. Never let anyone, however well intentioned, persuade you to do what you know is wrong. “Trust God from the bottom on your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice…he’s the one who will keep you on track” (Pr 3:5-6 TM).

@ Mykellio, thanks so much for the write-up, I hope someone at the corridor of power will push this to the people in power.

What's happening here? Are you guys turning this thread to a kind of chatting room?

“From the one who has been entrusted with much, much more will be asked.”  Lk 12:48 NIV

What God expects from you

Added blessing always brings added responsibility. So: (1) Stop complaining. Happiness doesn’t come from getting what you want; it comes from recognizing and enjoying what you have. So keep a positive attitude and be grateful every day. Rudyard Kipling said, “Don’t pay too much attention to fame, power, or money. Some day you’ll meet a person who cares for none of these, and then you’ll know how poor you are.” (2) Stop assuming. When you see your neighbors buying new furniture, taking expensive vacations, and driving the latest car, does something stir inside you to do the same? Be careful; just because someone appears to be in similar circumstances to yours doesn’t mean anything. They might earn twice as much. On the other hand, they may be in debt up to their ears or three-quarters of the way to bankruptcy or a divorce court. Stop making assumptions and trying to be like somebody else. (3) Stop withholding. Bruce Larson said, “Money is another pair of hands to heal, feed, and bless the desperate families of the earth. In other words, money is my other self.” But that’s only true if you’re willing to part with it. Money is like manure: If you let it pile up it stinks; if you spread it around it helps things grow. Money gives you options the less fortunate can only pray for. And one more very important thought: How you use your money will be one of the biggest issues you’ll face on Judgment Day. Indeed, it’ll be a determining factor when it comes to your eternal reward. Think about it!

“Love is patient, love is kind.”  1Co 13:4 NIV

The power of kindness (2)

Truly great people understand the power of kindness. Once while Abraham Lincoln was dining in the White House one of his guests blew on his coffee, poured it into his saucer, and drank from it. As you might imagine, some of the refined ladies and gentlemen seated nearby were aghast, and for a moment the room was filled with an embarrassed silence. Then Lincoln took his coffee, poured it into his saucer, and for the rest of the evening drank directly from it. And you know what? Everyone else in the room followed suit! One small act of kindness saved a White House guest unbelievable embarrassment. And that simple but thoughtful gesture by one of America’s greatest presidents reminds us of the value of setting an example of kindness. Chances are you’ve never heard of Stephen Grellet, a French-born Quaker who died in 1855. He’d still be unknown to the world at large, except for a few immortal lines that will likely be remembered forever: “I shall pass through this world but once. Any good therefore that I can do or any kindness that I can show to any human being, let me do it now. Let me not defer nor neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again.” Each day has one thing in common with the next. Both offer opportunities to show kindness, and when missed, those opportunities leave you with unwanted regrets. Poet C. R. Gibson wrote, “I have wept in the night for the shortness of sight, that to somebody’s need made me blind. But I never have yet had a twinge of regret, for being a little too kind.”

macof:
You all have made no sense. .just to show how far you are lost

Everything based on traditions is devil, darkness, etc to you morons. Must you Bring ur borrowed religion into everything?

If it's not devilish, why must the families be crying wolf then? You might as well seek the truth, and let the truth set you free.

Thank God that it was a false alarm. It won't be funny oooo nii ipari odun?

I pity the man, he can't even have a quick shave before the wedding.

Dinning with the devil has nothing to offer you than shame and disgrace. I wonder why the family pretend as if they don't know the drill, "give unto the devil what's belong to the devil"

“Be devoted to one another.”  Ro 12:10 NIV

The power of kindness (1)

Sometimes we think that in order to be successful we have to be tough, hardnosed, and stoic in how we relate to others. Some folks even go so far as to interpret kindness as weakness and vulnerability. Nothing could be further from the truth. Kindness signals tremendous inner strength that others not only appreciate, but respect. Aesop wrote a fable in which the wind and the sun argued over who was the stronger. “Do you see that old man down there?” the wind asked. “I can make him take off his coat quicker than you can.” The sun agreed to duck behind a cloud while the wind blew up a storm. But the harder the wind blew the more firmly the traveler wrapped his coat around him. Eventually the wind gave up and the sun reappeared, smiling kindly upon the old man. Before long he mopped his brow, shed his heavy coat and strolled away. The sun knew the secret: Warmth, friendliness, and a gentle touch are always more effective than force and fury. Jesus was hard on hypocrites and those who took advantage of others. But to everyone else, including society’s rejects, He showed great kindness. He came into an unkind, dog-eat-dog, every-man-for-himself culture where there were no mental health institutions, hospitals, orphanages, or organizations of mercy. Yet He poured the milk of human kindness into every bowl of human suffering. And at the cross He demonstrated the ultimate cost of kindness—and in so doing, changed the world for all time. So, “Be devoted to one another in brotherly love. Honor one another above yourselves.”

how can one just use his own hands to invite death, ehnn, let him go and tell Baba God his mission on earth

.....it wasn't his fault, it was the fault of those that bought him the beer. his blood will be on them. They could have done something better for him with the money they used in buying him the beer, or rather encourage him in turning to a well responsible fellow than a drunk. I wondered what they've gain from his death though?

The bear will cost a minimum of N150 per bottle, and that will be N7,200. Wouldn't it have been better to use 7k to invest for him, and just bought him one bottle of beer and save his life to this nonsense?

What happens to the saying "Be your brother's keeper?". Nigeria mentality.

mployer:
They are all good at telling lies...

This is not about telling lies, this is about realistic part of the business. I will appreciate any man that made me realize what is happening than those who will keep telling us that the economy is doing well, when actually the country is in a mess. We are now in the era of accountability. Ride on Mr. Kachikwu, God will see you guys through IJN.

Simply decent. Moderately dressed and very responsible too. You don't need to show all your body to the world to show us that you are beautiful. I hope other actress (e.g, Tonto whatever) would learn from her.

Happy birthday Reg.

If the whole Nigerian are rushing, wetin concern me there? A bi your father nii?

“Be fruitful, and multiply.”  Ge 1:28

Do what God’s called you to do

God told Adam, “Be fruitful, and multiply.” In other words, “Discover the purpose for which I made you and give yourself fully to it.” Ever observed a great golfer? His level of concentration, the fluid grace as he arcs the club into that little white ball and sends it sailing onto the green? It’s what he was meant to do. He knows it and takes pleasure in it. People who fulfill their calling exude an excitement and a connection to their gift that transcends fame. Most of them have simply found a way to get paid for doing something they love. Money never replaces purpose. When you find the thing you’d gladly do for free—there’s a good chance you’ve found your calling. You were made in the image of God, with a built-in drive to create. That doesn’t mean you must have an artistic temperament to find your life’s purpose. But everyone who’s aware of their calling is in the process of giving birth to something. It may seem obvious that those who are songwriters, artists, and poets are giving birth to their dreams. But so is any one of us who discovers who he or she is, and answers that call through their unique gifts. You may be called to give birth to a business, or invent a technical device that will benefit others, or discover a cure for some disease, or find new systems of efficiency in the workplace. You say, “But what if I try and fail?” The real loser is the one who never attempts to fly with the wings God gave them. So, do what God’s called you to do!

Now we are talking about the most beautiful baby mana


How can we celebrate sinful act in this generation for God's sake?


Having a child out of wedlock is a sin before God and man. If you don't know, that child is called a bastard no matter how you look at it.


In those days, you will even be looked at as a plague. Nobody will associate with you.


Now you want to know the most beautiful sinner abi? God help us.
