Is success defined by you or is it defined by other people? If it’s defined by other people, what wisdom do they have that you don’t?

We tend to think of success in terms of what our tribe thinks it should be. But the tribe isn’t always right.

It’s hard for us to believe that the majority could be wrong. And it’s hard for us to live in a way that might invite ridicule or persecution from our tribe. Especially when those who we most want to accept us might reject us or think less of us.

Success isn’t entirely subjective or arbitrary. There are some obvious ways in which we can fail. But it has nothing to do with who made the most money or who was most popular.

Once you remove what the tribe thinks, it changes everything. Success, for you, will no longer be defined by what other people are going to think of you.

“There is no hell fire my friend. Well, it does not exist in the traditional sense.”

“Mr Cosmas has come again. So if it does not exist, is it heaven that those that commit suicide go to?”

“I don’t know if you want me to talk about this now Mr Zubi.”

“Go ahead.”

“There is paradise and there are the nether regions. Where you go to after death depends on the density or lightness of your soul when it leaves the physical body. A person of base propensities will be heavy and descend to the regions where he will be with people that are like him where they will engage themselves in the kind of vices they engaged in while on earth. And a soul that is light and luminous will ascend to the lighter spheres also corresponding to the lightness of his soul and he will be with people of a similar nature to him. Now for those who descend to the nether regions, there is no torment greater than that. Even the best description of hell does not tell the story of the horror that goes on there. Murderers will find themselves in the midst of other murderers where they will perpetually be trying to kill each other but they will not die because they are no longer flesh. Instead, they will continue to rage maniacally and attack each other nonstop for decades and even centuries. Drunks will find themselves among their ilk. The sexually perverted the same thing. The avaricious, the envious… It is uncontrolled raging of the base propensities they had on earth that you cannot even imagine. Now for those who commit suicide and think they are escaping their problems, they will be surprised to wake up and find themselves in an environment full of suicidal people who will continue to suffer the frustrations that drove them to suicide in greater force because over there in the ethereal thought is deed. There is no material substance to cushion or even stall the volition once it is sent forth. A person that died by hanging himself will find that he will continue to feel the noose on his neck and the pain will remain there along with all his frustrations without any restraint. If the person died by drowning, he will wake up to find himself struggling in water for eternity. Or until such a time when they reach a recognition and cry for help and then a helping hand will be extended to them.

"You have no idea what a privilege it is to be alive. Your physical body offers protection you cannot get in any other plane of existence. It is only here that good and evil exist side by side. That is why we are born so that we can use the protection of our bodies to mature and cast off our faults so that we become light and be able to ascend to paradise where we came from when we die. But when we only engage our base propensities, we also prepare ourselves for an existence in the beyond that is worse than the worst thing you can think of. Crucially I must say since this is what gave rise to the conversation, suicide is not the answer. You will wake up to find that you were better off on earth.”

“Mr Cosmas, so please who goes to hellfire?

“The Almighty loving father I believe in did not build a furnace where he will put his children. No. There is no such hell fire. But because human beings have thought about it for millennia their collective thoughts have formed such a place in the beyond for them. Every thought is a living form, and it will merge with similar thoughts and bring to existence in the ethereal that with is thought about. Hell fire exists for those who want to go there but it is not a creation of the Almighty.”
his hand on the young angel. See how God worked? After all the suffering in the hands of women. Indeed, good things came to those who wait. He also could not wait to see the rascal Chisco. Since he came back he had been flaunting his to Lagos. And Chisco will always be under him in every way!

Hmmm! It is true that the Almighty loving Father did not build a furnace to throw His children in. The furnace was made for Satan and other angels that followed him in his rebellion. Unfortunately, those who refuse to accept the sacrifice of Jesus which is to set us free from the rulership of the god of this world (Satan) and reconcile us to fellowship with the Father which was constrained by Adam, have automatically CHOSEN to spend eternity there.

Jesus loves you and wants you to spend eternity in heaven with Him. Choose Jesus, choose life.

This is so lovely. That's indeed how much God loves us. His hands are always open to receive us even when we err as His children. He only expects us to ask for mercy.
I would like to see a beautiful ending about Denrele too.
I would like to share your story with your kind permission ofcourse. Thumbs up joromi36. Expecting more beautiful stories like this.

[quote author=damselposh post=75289331][/quote]I think it is o. If she had switched to acting mode, wailing and forming cry for her missing friend, they would not have suspected that she knew her whereabout. Her actions of eyeing and seeming uninterested hiked their suspicion. #myopinion

Why did he leave his daughter in Nigeria? I guess we will find out in due time

Happy Birthday Gaby. Thank God for your life. Keep growing in grace and in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus. Cheers

A reality she is living with after following Zinat out with those weirdos from the club. All was good but these daily nightmares? So disturbing...

Hello dearie. Thanks for the feedback. I'm going to look into that. However could you please be more specific as to the story you are looking for:?

It would help.

Thank you.

Thanks for the reply Kay. I read up to chapter two of The complete assassin but could not go further. I decided to check out AEWE, same situation. I have read AEWE now but on another website.
