Only people suffering from chronic inferiority complex borrow to impress.

Just enjoy your little wins like there's no tomorrow 😋😋😋😋
Abi o, if na garri you get, drink am in peace.

I visited hospital today to visit my sick sister.

If you visit there, you will thank God for your life even if you don't see food.

Worst Christmas since I was born. As I'm Speaking I don't have even 1k. People that are owing me didn't pay back. I swear with my Dad's grave I don't have any food to eat. Even normal days will be better than today. But in everything I give thanks to God. But I still don't believe this is happening to me. Merry Christmas 🎁🎁 to you all. Live goes on.

When God is not pleased with something how do we expect Him to show the disapproval?

Well some will tell you that God will speak from the sky to everyone yet we all know that in the Bible God has condemned many acts as written in the BOOK.

So when something is not blessed by God such a thing will continue to bring hardship to people no matter how much the people love it!

Should anyone be told that in the first place! Why borrow because of a day enjoyment when it's beyond ones income and then struggle for months as a result. Moreover, Christ is the reason for the season thus he would rather one does more of humility than chicken, rice, drinks, clubbing, etc.

it's not everybody that even has the Coat, not to talk of cutting to size. Hope you know that?
Everybody get piece of cloth, no matter how small.

this is not about CLOTHES. if it was about it, you are right. So you are not getting the point.

Sorry, but you are confusing the matter.
Let me explain:
First of all, you obviously do not know the difference between Cloth and Clothes. Clothes (or Clothings) are made from Cloth (or Fabrics).
Cut Your Coat According to Your Size is an idiomatic expression.
Literal Meaning: When you take a piece of Cloth (or fabric) to a tailor to sew a Coat, ensure he measures you according to your size.

But recently, this idiomatic expression has been modified that the tailor should not only consider your size, but also the quantity of available material (Cloth or Fabric) you have. 👋

That you should always live & operate within your resources and what you can afford.
&as the Cleric said, if you don't have money for Chicken this Christmas, do not go & borrow - just eat your rice without Chicken or use beef if that's what you can afford.

God bless you. Exactly. You got it 100%.
Now, what I was saying is that there are people out there who doesn't even have the rice to eat. Not to talk of adding beef. And they have children.

Well, the question will now be how have such people been surviving before Christmas?
If they've been begging to survive, then the Cleric's message implies they can also beg (not borrow) to celebrate Christmas. smiley
