Religion / 5 Ways To Make The Word Of God Come Alive: by smsshola(m): 4:46am On Feb 02, 2016 |
Another day. Another bible reading. Skimming. I’ve read it before. Half listening. I know what to expect. Not discovering. I know the punchline. Does the bible ever fall flat because you have flattened out and read its pages so many times? Does your mind have a hard time idling on God’s Word, because the world speeds too fast around it? I can’t seem to keep my heart in the place where the heart of God is – and that is the problem. This problem, if not addressed, will, before long – stamp and deliver my heart to destinations I never intended to arrive at. Frustrationville or Aggravationmount or some place like that. It could just as easily bring me to Jealoustown or Pridebury. Either way, they are places that reek of self and shame and guilt. Their roads are rocky and tumultuous. Every time, they leave me with a stomach turning knots over itself. I’d rather not. So, how do you dive into God’s Word, like a fresh glass of lemonade on a hot day? How do you dive into it, knowing that you have had it one hundred and one times, but still, wanting and needing it? Craving and desiring it? Thirsting and salivating over it? 1. Let your senses sense what the sentiment was. Imagine being the lead role in the story. See yourself there. Sense your sin and the idea that you or your family has done something terribly wrong. Feel the judgement of the Pharisees upon you. Wonder if God really can and will heal you. Let your heart beat. After saying this, he spit on the ground, made some mud with the saliva, and put it on the man’s eyes. “Go,” he told him, “wash in the Pool of Siloam”. Jo. 9:6 2. Take your part in the redemption story. Hear the words of Jesus leave his mouth. Feel the mud in your hand. Experience vision. Look amazed at what surrounds you. Set your eyes on Jesus. Then, see yourself run to the masses to share the glory of the only one who could heal in this way. Take a snapshot of the story with your senses. Know that while this was his story, it is also your story. He replied, “Whether he is a sinner or not, I don’t know. One thing I do know. I was blind but now I see!” Jo. 9:25 3. Ask yourself, “What about this experience is calling me to think, do or say differently?” When you take a moment to think of all God has done, you can’t help but think of all he wants to do. His will makes your will jump up and down just at the thought of serving him. The (once blind) man answered, “Now that is remarkable! You don’t know where he comes from, yet he opened my eyes. We know that God does not listen to sinners. He listens to the godly person who does his will. ” Jo. 9: 30-31 4. Believe: He loves you, just as much as he loved them. Just because you feel less than, doesn’t mean that God sees you that way. Believing that you are worthy of his gifts, love and encouragement, will allow your heart to receive them. Rather than keeping up defenses to his Word, you will lay them down and He will enter in. The Once- Blind Man: “Nobody has ever heard of opening the eyes of a man born blind.” Jo. 9:32 5. Avoid boxing God in (and you might just find your way out of your box). When you believe in you heart, what Jesus did through Scriptures, you’ll find in your mind you can conceive the great things he wants to do through your life. It sounds simple, but simple belief is so often what it comes down to. Very truly I tell you, whoever believes in me will do the works I have been doing, and they will do even greater things than these, because I am going to the Father. Jo. 14:12 When you approach God’s Word in this way, you realize you hold living water that is not bitter, old or common. Instead, you taste the fruit of what God has done and is about to do. It fills, it satiates and it refreshes. Like lemonade on a parched day – it’s a drink you can’t wait to indulge in, lap up and embrace word by word. It is peace and replenishment all in one. May the Lord enrich our soul... |
Romance / Photo: How To Identify A ‘ Runs’ Girl Easily. by smsshola(m): 4:25am On Feb 02, 2016 |
Lagos is a place where the struggle for limited resources is keen. All facilities are highly COMMERCIALIZED including love. Things are not always what they seem to be at the surface level, so there is a need for you to ‘shine your eyes’ before being caught buying the counterfeit. These are top features of a Lagos prostitute who maybe trying hard to hide her identity to avoid stigma: 1. Runs girls in Lagos are fond of heavy make-ups: They are always desperate to create an impression wherever they go. This leads to obviously heavy and colourful make-ups that mayn’t even rhyme at all. The ‘foundation’ could be so strong like she wants to erect a building on her face. 2. Awkward piercings: These set of ladies pierce their nose with rings attached. Their ears carry multiple piercings too. Some bold ones go as far as rocking nose rings to show how fashionable they are. 3. They chew gum indecently: The act of chewing gum is very paramount among full time prostitutes and ‘aristos’ seem to have mastered the act well and I wonder the rationale behind it. 4. Breast display: As goods are displayed on shelves in the shopping mall, so also the runs girls flash their ‘selling points’ I.e their area of strength for prospective buyers. They make sure you can a vivid look of what you are up against like the massive boobs, big bum and exposure of the flat tummy or waist. 5. Tattoos: In Nigeria today, most decent and well- cultured ladies don’t draw tattoos. Most ‘female marketers’ are fond of conspicuous tattoos which are positioned at strategic points for you to feed your eyes on and they are always quite bold. 6. Bleached skin: A fair lady gets more attention and is easily noticeable than a dark one. Runs girls don’t joke with bleaching. The skin is unnecessary white while the fingers, toes and knuckles stand out black with the intention to break away like Biafra. 7. Runs girls in Lagos love expensive phones with busy lines: When a lady’s phone rings incessantly like she is a customer-care agent and you know she isn’t selling anything; my guy, she is into ‘E- commerce’ like Jumia delivering the assumed and the social media is likely her booking office. 8. When you keep calling her phone and introducing yourself severally: Runs girls have several clients to deal with. They hardly store numbers until they are sure you have the will to do business. They easily lose track of the identity of their callers and you get poised to re-introduce yourself over and over again. 9. If she disappears mysteriously like the 2016 national budget from the senate on Friday nights: Friday nights are sacred nights in Lagos when the ‘god of koboko’ is worshiped by hardworking men that must have been engaged productively throughout the week. On a night like this, a hot runs girl must have been booked by the highest bidder; hence a dramatic disappearance until Saturday morning. 10. She is likely ‘selling it’ if she spends the entire day sleeping and heads out every night: Runs girls in Lagos have opposite working schedules, they leave for work when others are returning, and go on recess when others are at work like ‘Edo witches’ (na joke oh). 2 Likes

Romance / Tips On Breast Care: How To Firm Up Your Boobs-ladies Only by smsshola(m): 8:51pm On Feb 01, 2016 |
Happy new month peeps! As we count down to Valentine’s day, whether you have a boo or not, there is one thing you owe yourself this season; you need to look good. Now ladies, this one is for you. Today we will be learning how to firm up our breasts the easy way (no surgeries), giving us that vavavoom effect we need this season. – Bras: Nothing gives breast confidence like a good bra. A good bra cups your breast perfectly, giving it that all ’round sexiness with or without clothes. For those of us who are fitness buffs, we should get the perfect sports bra for us. So take time and money off today and invest in good bras. – Sitting Posture: Maybe out of negligence, sitting posture has become an aspect of our lives which nobody seems to care about. Do you know that slouching can cause back aches and may also be the reason why your breasts may be looking droopy or saggy? – Sleeping Position: Studies have shown that sleeping on your side could cause the top breast to sag or stretch more than the other, so it is advised that you sleep on your back as that would allow for equal stretch and appearance. – Exercise: Yoga and aerobics help cause circulation in the blood vessels of the breasts and so do bench presses. Remember Tip 1 above and be sure to get a great sports bra to prevent the breasts from over stretching while exercising. -Weight loss: it is okay to lose weight if you want to but consistency is the key here. Fluctuation in body weight leads to stretch marks and sagging breasts as the skin of the breasts would have to spread around extra fat tissue. – Breast massage: This involves the use of natural oils like olive oil to massage the breasts. Be careful while doing this, using only two drops of the oil per massage session which could be once a day or twice (morning and evening) as these oils could get heated in the process due to friction and cause skin burns. We also have breast masks which are effective breast lifters. Two of the most effective masks are; – Vitamin E oil and egg breast mask: This involves making a paste of yogurt, vitamin E and egg. Apply this paste over your breast and rub it in nicely. Allow the mask settle for about half an hour then rinse with water. – Cucumber and Egg breast mask: This would require adding some butter, natural cream and egg yolk to ground-up cucumber. Then place in the refrigerator overnight, after which you can apply on your breast, leave for about half an hour and then rinse off with cold water. This would firm up and tone the skin and muscles of your breast, thereby lifting the breasts naturally. So has your self esteem been diminished as a result of saggy breasts? Have you refrained from certain clothes because your breasts just don’t look alive in them? Just follow the simple tips above and get your boobs-fidence back…XoXo. Source: Olisa TV |

TV/Movies / TVC And Channels Stations Rate Them at scale 1-10 by smsshola(m): 8:51pm On Jan 28, 2016 |
Before the licence for private owner ship to participate in the TV station NTA was the BOM own by the govt so most Nigerian them were subject to what the govt want them to hear and view. Then came the privatisation of the TV sector.... which give birth to AIT that make Nigeria have some say about the things that happened in the country...then came silver bird TV...and many more but none was given AIT headache until channels came on board. Recently is like we av a new born baby trying to rob shoulder with channel's that have been dominating Nigeria tv station. With this new young TV station that seem to have the best TV studio in Nigeria channel stations need to fight well to remain on top. So nairalanders what is ur view about Tvc and channel station rate them in term of: Program Technology setting cameraman pictures quality studio background |
