'Okay, good. Let me go in to freshen up; noticing Lydia sleeping on the sofa, why is she not in her room, have she eaten?' 'For sure she has eaten as usual she didn't leave food for us in the pot when we came in sometime ago' 'Okay, thats her normal way so don't be angry' 'No we can't be' |
'Oh my!, time is gone?' checking her watch; its 7:30pm now. And am not through with this files.' She dialed and called louise to come to her office. 'Yes ma' louise said as she entered with motion 'Take this, i have to go home now. I want you to be through with this before tomorrow. How you will do it, i dont care. I have done a wholesome part of it' she concluded as she stood up to take her things, then she left. 'Yes ma, i will be through' louise said following her closely Lydia was so tired that she left her new official car behind and took a cab. 'Where are you stopping at, ma?' says the taxi driver 'Jones str.' Lydia replied Just then, her phone rings. It was edna calling. Edna is also her room mate as Gina is. She travelled to visit her parents. 'Hello lydy. Are you at home?' Edna asked 'Nope, just going home now. Are u coming back today?' 'Yes oh, i want someone to be back home when i arrive thats why i called' 'So why did u call me? Have u called the others?' No, i dont know if they will come home early. Since you are always home early most times, i decided to call' Edna said slowly 'Stop wasting your credit. Am already at the front of the house.' Lydia said as she cuts the connection, have your money' she said to the taxi driver When she got home, she noticed the door was locked, 'where could those girls have gone to?' she said to herself She went in, after taking her bath cooked dinner only for herself. It was not quite long she slept that Gina and Beck came in. They saw the door unlocked and so they enetered in and saw lydia sleeping soundly on the sofa. Immediately, beck went straight to the kitchen. 'She didn't even keep a morsel of food for us' Beck said annoyed 'Where you expecting her to do so?, you know who Lydia is' Gina said 'Let me prepare something light for us then. Edna is supposedly returning home today' She added 'Prepare noddles and carrot stew. Hmmn..tasty' Gina said smiling Just then, Edna came in. 'Welcome!!. How was the trip?' Gina said as she helped her with her luggage 'Fine. Everyone at home sends their greetings. Oh!! Am so hungry. I can eat an elephant. Hope u guys are preparing something' Edna said 'Yes, sure' Gina assured her |

Even if a player should beat the odds and
win, he would do well to consider not just
the momentary excitement of winning but
the long-term effects of gambling. “An
inheritance is being got by greed at first,”
says Proverbs 20:21, “but its own future
will not be blessed.” Many lottery winners
and other gamblers have learned, to their
regret or sorrow, that the riches they won
did not bring them happiness. How much better it is to heed the Bible’s counsel not to rest our hope on “uncertain riches, but on God, who furnishes us all things richly for our enjoyment.”— 1 Timothy 6:17. There is a much more sinister side to gambling besides winning and losing. “Those who are determined to be rich fall into temptation and a snare and many senseless and hurtful desires, which plunge men into destruction and ruin,” says God’s Word. (1 Timothy 6:9) A snare is designed to entangle a victim. Countless numbers of people, determined to wager only a small amount of money or to try their hand at gambling just a few times, have become entangled and unable to escape gambling addiction. It has destroyed careers, hurt loved ones, and ruined families. Having considered the many scriptures related to the subject of gambling, do you perceive what God’s will is in the matter? The apostle Paul urged his fellow Christians: “Quit being fashioned after this system of things, but be transformed by making your mind over, that you may prove to yourselves the good and acceptable and perfect will of God.” ( Romans 12:2) God’s will, not popular sentiment, should guide a Christian’s life. As “the happy God,” Jehovah wants us to enjoy life, free of the bitter fruitage that results from the snare that gambling is.— 1 Timothy 1:11. |
Whether wagering online, purchasing a
lottery ticket, placing a sports bet, or
gaming in a casino, gamblers often
overlook the source of the prize they are
vying to win. Gambling differs from a
legitimate transaction or purchase in that
the player wants to win money that other
players lose. * “For every millionaire that is
created from lottery winnings,” states
Canada’s Centre for Addiction and Mental
Health, “there are millions of others who
have lost their money!” What Bible
principles can help a Christian to
understand God’s feelings about this?
The last of the Ten Commandments given to
Israel stated: “You must not desire your
fellowman’s wife, nor his slave man nor his
slave girl nor his bull nor his ass nor
anything that belongs to your fellowman.”
( Exodus 20:17) Desiring a fellow man’s
things—his material possessions, wealth,
and money—was a serious sin, listed along
with desiring his wife. Centuries later, the
apostle Paul repeated this command for
Christians: “You must not covet.” ( Romans
7:7) Might a Christian who seeks to win
what another person loses be guilty of
covetousness?
“Whether they [most gamblers] admit it or
not,” writes columnist J. Phillip Vogel,
“before the action gets going they secretly
dream of turning whatever stake they have
—even if it’s only a few dollars—into a
windfall.” Such gamblers dream of making
it big or striking it rich in one easy stroke.
This obviously is contrary to the Bible’s
counsel that a Christian should “do hard
work, doing with his hands what is good
work, that he may have something to
distribute to someone in need.” ( Ephesians
4:28) And the apostle Paul specifically
stated: “If anyone does not want to work,
neither let him eat.” He added: “They should
eat food they themselves
earn.” ( 2 Thessalonians 3:10, 12) But might
gambling be considered legitimate work?
Although gambling can be an intense game,
any money awarded has been won, not
earned or obtained as a return for work
done or services rendered. In gambling,
money is wagered against the odds, with
the outcome highly dependent on chance,
and it is based on the hope that sooner or
later things will turn out well. In short, a
gambler seeks to get something for
nothing. True Christians, on the other hand,
are admonished to earn money by honest
work. “With a man there is nothing better
than that he should eat and indeed drink
and cause his soul to see good because of
his hard work,” wrote wise King Solomon.
Then he added: “This is from the hand of
the true God.” ( Ecclesiastes 2:24) Yes,
servants of God do not build their hope on
fantasy or search for shortcuts but look to
God for happiness and blessings. |
Since gambling involves betting on
uncertainties, belief in luck—a mysterious
force that supposedly controls random
events—plays a large role, especially when
money is wagered. For example, auspicious
numbers are chosen for lottery tickets; the
uttering of certain words is forbidden
among superstitious mah-jongg players;
and a puff of air is blown over dice before
they are thrown. Why? Gamblers often
believe that luck will, or at least might,
influence the outcome.
Is it merely a harmless game to put one’s
trust in luck? Some people in ancient Israel
felt that way. They believed that luck could
bring them prosperity. How did Jehovah
God feel about the matter? Through his
prophet Isaiah, God told them: “You men
are those leaving Jehovah, those forgetting
my holy mountain, those setting in order a
table for the god of Good Luck and those
filling up mixed wine for the god of
Destiny.” ( Isaiah 65:11) In God’s eyes, belief
in luck is a form of idolatry and is not
compatible with true worship. It reflects
trust in an imaginary force rather than in
the true God. There is no reason to believe
that God has changed his view. |
POPULAR films and television shows have
often portrayed gambling—especially at
casinos—as the pastime of the beautiful,
wealthy, and sophisticated. Of course,
viewers generally realize that these
portrayals are mere fiction or fantasy. In the real world, though, lottery tickets, sports betting, and online gambling compete with casinos for the gambler’s attention. Gambling is “almost a universal vice whose appeal has spread like a brushfire,” says the book Internet Gambling. Poker, for example, is now featured as a mainstream sport on television and the Internet. According to one newspaper, experts estimate that in the United States, the number of poker players doubled during a recent 18-month period. Gambling has been described as wagering money on an uncertain outcome. Many people reason that as long as the money belongs to the gambler and he does not become addicted, there is nothing wrong with gambling. In fact, the New Catholic Encyclopedia says that gambling “is not considered sinful except when the indulgence in it is inconsistent with duty.” However, no Scriptural passages are cited to support that conclusion. How, then, should a Christian view this matter? Does the Bible condone or condemn gambling? It must be noted that the Holy Scriptures do not directly mention gambling. This does not mean, however, that we are left with no direction on the matter. Instead of issuing rules governing every activity or situation, the Bible urges us to “go on perceiving what the will of Jehovah is.” (Ephesians 5:17) The Greek word translated “perceiving,” according to Bible scholar E. W. Bullinger, denotes bringing together the features of a subject by means of “mental activity, knowledge acquired by reflection and consideration.” A Christian can thus perceive God’s will in this matter by bringing together and reflecting on Bible principles that relate to gambling. As you read the scriptures cited in the following discussion, you might ask yourself: ‘Does gambling harmonize with this scripture? What does God’s Word indicate as to his will in this matter?’ |

'Can't they spare me for once, always asking me for money as if am an ATM' Lydia said to herself as she hit her head softly. Family life was not as rosy as she always prayed it will be. When her father was still working, he told their mother not to work and be a house wife, he retired early as he was diagnosed with hyenia. Although he already had the operation long time ago, his immune system dropped low and he is prone to various diseases. Thank God Lydia has always been a fortunate human, she was able to find a job even while in school and after she graduated she got this job. Her older brother Lent is not as secured any employment since graduating from university so she was their dependable variable as far as she is concerned. TO BE CONTINUED........ |
Episode 1- (Lydia's life) 'I'll inform her right away' says the secretary louise to Gina who came to visit Lydia The phone rings in Lydias' office, grr, grr, 'What happened' lydia asked 'A woman wants t see you ma, she said she has an important message to say to you' louise said 'Okay let her in' Who could that be? She thought Lydia is a twenty-five year old graduate of business administration. She was quite fortunate to have gotten a job right after she was through with her education. Because of her commitment in her job, she was already given a promotion which made her the supervising management to the marketing and advertising department of the company. Lydia is one of the fortunate women on earth, God gave all the beauty and also the brains but this did not improve her attitude. 'Knock,knock' a voice said 'come in' Lydia answered, her friend and housemate regina came in. 'Woah, i have never been to your new office after you were promoted' Gina said as she looked around 'sit down, what do you want?' Lydia said crossly 'Hian, even in the office, you still have your 'mouth'. Anyway, i hope you didn't forget the money we said we would contribute to buy a new fridge for the apartment' Gina said as she brought out a mirror to check how she looks. 'so how much is my precentage pay?' Lydia asked 'You know, 25% each for the four of us.....well that is not the main reason am here' 'So why are you here then?' 'Your mom called home, she said your dad is in the hospital. He had a surgery and they need to foot his bill' 'What the....? Why didnt she call any of my brothers?' Lydia shouted in anger 'Hey!!, do u want me to remind u of your family situation? None of ur brothers are working. C'mon u are not the only one in the world taking care of a family!' Gina shouted back 'Alryt, i will give you part of the money and also you will help me out; you will go to the bank and pay the money to my dad's account. Hope am clear' Lydia said authorotatively 'Heh!, you are not my boss. I'll help u so stop commanding me; getting up she said:- 'And this your office is not looking bad only that its in wrong hands' Gina said as she walked out of the office 'Gosh, this is killing' |
I just had success in writing my first novel 'Class clash', this is my third novel 'L.o.v.e' This is the story about a lady named Lydia, a workaholic who has no time for relationship or love. She is the supervisor to the marketing dept. in a manufacturing company 'SICO'. Although she is very dedicated and hardworking to her job, Lydia has a personality and attitude that shows she doesn't care about others. By chance, her boss son became infatuated with her and she in turn became attracted to a new worker steven who was also like her but not sure of what she felt, she decided to keep her feelings to herself. How would this two individuals leave their behaviors and attitudes aside and know what love is? Read to find out. ENJOY!!!!!! P.s....notice to anyone who wants to claim this story, original writer is Tchelber inc. Thanks |
