LOST 3 OF MY BROTHERS IN THIS ACCIDENT...
WE ARE IN SERIOUS PAIN...

TLF - I agree with Abs to a greater extent. I learnt how to give because I saw my father give. I learnt how to give clean and generous offering because I saw my mother do. She never gave me coins as a child to put in the box and the money was not taped! I also learnt to put money in humility and not like I'm spraying money or doing anyone a favour! I started TLF when the only public medium was basic yahoo mail. As time went I was advised to make brochures, have fliers, have fb, blog, even instagram. I was told to make videos, take pictures and use to solicit for funds, prove I was doing something and get members! Phew! Thank God for light. Idowu and Abs, as the Spirit leads, now eh I know those who want to donate, join or acknowledge our activities with or without 'show' that is, pictures, videos, receipts and all will do. Those who don't want to give won't. Now my mother does not tell me or allow me see or know what she's giving, how, why or when! Now most places of charity- orphanages, remand homes, prisons and all don't even allow pictures as much as possible. I do have a couple of pictures but they are in my folder. We have some on our blog and a few used as backdrop in our picture message. But ultimately the Lord God knows our hearts, minds, intentions and deeds. Jesus Who said we should give alms in secret in the Holy Bible, also says in Matthew 5:16; 2 Corinthians 9:7, 11, 12 that we should let our light shine and good works so people will offer thanks to God! Let the Spirit of God lead. One day you may see our activities on our page�

Aderonke - Hmmm... This is just one way of looking at it, sis and I disagree with the generalization. Sometimes, posting catastrophes and narrating the accompanying interventions have a tremendous impact, they inspire! Some people are genuinely ignorant of the extent of hardships, lack and pain that other people are going through and sometimes it takes just one post about a humane deed to trigger their consciousness and trigger similar actions on their part; it can be a call to action. I have experienced these things personally, sis & it works. Motive & intention often matter too.

Chioma - The Feeding of the 5,000 is also known as the "miracle of the five loaves and two fish", because the Gospel of John reports that five barley loaves and two small fish supplied by a boy were used by Jesus to feed a multitude. ... They said they only had five loaves of bread and two fish, which Jesus asked be brought to him. If this story wasn't shared we would never have heard of the miraculous wonders of giving.

Balyz:
Buhari doesn't have to know me to get my support, because the interests of the country supercedes mine. If you don't want to be quoted get off this forum and how I use my data is none of your business

Balyz:
You are in no position to tell me what I can or cant do. If you are not going to vote Buhari, please stay at home we cant afford to have your vote count for the other candidate

Balyz:
Vote Buhari to achieve the Nigeria of your dreams
