To be fair though, there is really no job that has lost its "respect". The advice for young entrants would be to have a strong math foundation, get into a good school preferably notably a federal university/polytechnic or top-rated private university, get a good grade and be well informed of the career/academic opportunities as they come by. Also, be prepared to change locations, especially at an early stage, if necessary.

Some ignorant people will come to say "Jobs are slavery". A big lie as the world has more employees than employers, and the most successful employers once worked somewhere or places to either raise their capital and/or garner experience within a structured environment.

Lust is a terrible thing and sometimes it leads to the addiction called masturbation.

Love is an agape love, sacrificial and unconditional.
When you love somebody, you will not want hurt the person, you will treat the person as you would want others to treat you.

Don't put pressure on anybody to do something bad today.

Before you drink, make sure you are very careful, so that they will not use drink to perform their ungodly act or immoral act today.

Go home early, don't spend the night in another person house.

Today is just 24hrs, you still have many more years ahead of you.

Why use one day to destroy your given destine.

Be careful, tread gently, be cautious and be watchful.

God bless you.

As long as you are alive, yes!

Let me hit you with some real stories of people who started late and still crushed it.

1. Colonel Sanders - The Chicken King

You’ve heard of KFC, right? Well, Harland Sanders didn’t start frying up that finger-lickin' chicken until he was in his 60s. Before that? He was a failed salesman, a gas station owner, and had about a dozen other gigs that didn’t pan out. At 65, with his recipe and a whole lot of determination, he started franchising his chicken business. Today, KFC is a global phenomenon. Imagine if he’d thought he was too old to try.

2. Vera Wang - The Fashion Icon

You see her name on luxury wedding gowns, but Vera Wang didn’t design her first dress until she was 40. Before that, she was a figure skater and then an editor at Vogue. She thought she’d missed her shot in fashion design, but clearly, she hadn’t. Today, she’s one of the most respected designers in the world. It wasn’t about her age; it was about her passion.

3. Samuel L. Jackson - Hollywood's Coolest

Samuel L. Jackson didn’t get his big break until he was 46 when he starred in Pulp Fiction. Before that, he was doing small roles, battling addiction, and trying to find his way. Now? He’s one of the highest-grossing actors of all time. Age didn’t hold him back. His persistence pushed him forward.

4. Ray Kroc - The Man Behind McDonald's

Ray Kroc was a milkshake machine salesman well into his 50s when he stumbled upon a little burger joint run by the McDonald brothers. He saw potential, bought them out, and turned McDonald's into the fast-food empire we know today. He was over 50 when he started! He literally built a billion-dollar brand while most people were thinking about retirement.

5. Laura Ingalls Wilder - The Pioneer Author

You know Little House on the Prairie? Laura Ingalls Wilder didn’t publish her first book until she was 65. Yep, 65! She spent years working on a farm, raising a family, and living the pioneer life before she decided to write about it. Her stories became timeless classics, beloved by generations.

So, is it okay to start life at 46? Heck yes, it is. Your age isn't a roadblock; it's a badge of experience. Life doesn't hand out deadlines for dreams. You set your own timeline.

In this life, some people can run, some can walk while others can only crawl, It does not matter whether you run, walk or crawl, My philosophy is to constantly on the move from one point to the other no matter how little.

You’re not too old my friend. You’re just getting started. For me, I will rather die trying to make it than to give up.

Go for it.

I just hope you won't return to what you said below because it simply means you don't want clarification.



In Hebrews language doing something in someone's name means applying the knowledge of such a person in what we do.
Baptism first came by John the baptist as a sign of repentance to the mosaic laws so baptism that Jesus is talking about means people throughout the world need to know the God of Israel, His son sent to redeem mankind and the part God's Holy Spirit will play in our salvation.

MaxInDHouse:
If you apply Trinity to what Jesus said while the Bible never used that word then it's not a biblical topic!

Kobojunkie:
Well, from your statement, any person born without a womb, a brain wired differently from that of a man, and one who does not wish to live in charge of a kitchen, etc., is not a woman, right? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

MaxInDHouse:
First quote the word TRINITY in the Bible after all the word God is found written in it that's why we are talking about God.

MaxInDHouse:
Tell a Buddhist, Hindu, Muslim, Shinto and Traditionalist if this is how your God could be explained.
You guys hate to be corrected that's why you keep saying God is a mystery yet you want to talk about God when the Bible has explained Him in details!

MaxInDHouse:
According to the Bible God is not present everywhere!

God said to Abraham :

“The outcry against Sodʹom and Go·morʹrah is indeed great, and their sin is very heavy. I will go down to see whether they are acting according to the outcry that has reached me. And if not, I can get to know it.” Genesis 18:20-21

How can God be everywhere yet He wants to go and verify the reports brought to Him?

Sirmwill:
The only Altar we have is in our hearts

Again, The Church is not a building, it's persons

You are speaking of the Old Testament

Now, we are in a new covenant
That of Jesus
Based on Only Jesus Teachings and commandments

AbuTwins:
Yeah, i have heard of it. How is he present in the toilet soak-away?

AbuTwins:
If God is everywhere can he also be in your toilet-soak away?

Sirmwill:
You have to first understand that the Church is not a building


And God does not live in a built church no matter how big
