In addition to olajide21's advice, I want to add one more from the teachings of Islam: Continue/increase your good deeds (especially charity) because "goods deeds erase bad ones"
olajide21: Alhamdullilah for His mercies. Satan creeps to our head in many forms and he is experienced. What you should do now? Repent sincerely to God. Hate your actions in your mind and body without returning to it. Seek forgive from God and you don't need to tell your parents nor your pastor. Seek the pleasure of God and pray for His forgivess. He is the most merciful and most forgiving.
Most importantly, seek and worship the only one God.
Sundaygeorge: You know the good book said that when you look at a lady lustfully that you have committed sin, so now I want to ask, if you think of to do bad thing and latter you didn't do it, is that sin, I mean you creating that bad thought in your mind is that a sin？
I don't know about Christianity; but in Islam, if you think of committing a sin and then decided not to execute it, you earn a reward. This is because you've been able to overcome your zeal to do evil.
However, if you didn't do it because you were unable to, then have no sin & no reward (some act eg lustful gaze at the opposite sex are sin whether you execute the temptation or not).
Jyde81: Different strokes. Don't be ungrateful. You make #100k as a young businessman each month. You are elated and grateful until you see a younger person who makes #1Million every month as salary. Then you lose your joy. You are satisfied with your #50k turn over after two months of hustling and aggressive touting until you meet a younger person who receives a salary credit alert of #500k each month. The result is always ingratitude. We become ungrateful for the little leaps in our lives because we are measuring ourselves by the pace and progress of others. If you are a new entrepreneur, which means you are not on anybody's payroll, you must be wary of an attitude of ingratitude. You will face this temptation virtually all the time. You'd meet people whose lifestyle and income would intimidate your current status. If care is not taken you may slip into despondency and lose personal momentum. One thing entrepreneurs and business folks must know is this; they are not equals with salary earners. This is not arrogance. It is the truth. They should not be comparing themselves with 8-5 employees, even those who earn six zeros after a single or double digit number. It takes ten times more effort for an entrepreneur to make what most employees make in one month. Ten times more courage. Ten times more intelligence. Ten times more industry. Ten times more sweat. Ten times more strength and ten times less sleep. Trust me, an employee who makes ten times your monthly turn over is not your equal. You are far more superior. Money is easy to make. Wealth is not. And the skills you need to make wealth are not acquired in an 8-5 job. It requires ten times more of you. Especially ten times more of your TIME, a commodity you cannot control as an employee. A good paying job is the lazy way for smart people to make money. Just sit behind a desk, carry out instructions from superiors and get paid end of the month. You will most likely not acquire what I'd call 'Experiential Muscle'. This is the skill to Survive rather than Cope. The oldest skill in the book. A skill most employees would never develop. The old-fashioned Survival Skill. But when you lose your joy because of others who earn fatter salaries you become ungrateful for your baby steps and consequently lose sight of your momentum. Suddenly your #100k profit seems like nothing. This attitude is dangerous. If you are an entrepreneur you must always and consistently focus on your last turn over and seek to surpass it. Always push yourself beyond the boundaries of your last profit. This is how you stay positive and gain healthy momentum. It is not by looking at other people's lifestyles and salaries. They would demotivate you. Always remember that the path you've chosen is the one less travelled. So different rules are at play and more is required of you. If you check the first 100 Richest People on Earth, NONE OF THEM is an employee. All of them are entrepreneurs.
Islam never preached hatred against non Muslims; especially the Christians. You guys Muslims and Christians need to go back to study Islam and relate with one another on its principle.
This is what prophet Muhammad (Peace be upon Him) said about the non-Muslims minorities in the Arabian Peninsula:
“Beware! Whoever is cruel and hard on a non-Muslim minority, or curtails their rights, or burdens them with more than they can bear, or takes anything from them against their free will; I (Prophet Muhammad) will complain against the person on the Day of Judgment.” (Abu Dawud)
oloriLFC: Not every muslim is a terrorist neither is every christian a saint. There are muslims whose attitude n way of relating with people are far better than my christian brothers n sisters. I've experienced lots of those.
I am amazed when you guys 'allocate' goodness to Christians and see Muslims as being evil.
Go through the history of Nigeria as see who have committed the most evils. History is there for you guys to visit. Please stop playing on emotions
SalamRushdie: Nonsense this picture does not in anyway change the primary goal of Islam which is to terrorise everyone with fear till they accept the religion ..so that reverend sister and those hailing the picture are only wasting their time
Cyynthialove: The Rev Sister is seriously taking risk, darkness and light have nothing in common. If they want to massacre, they don't have second thought.
Suicide bombers everywhere. Trust terroristsss at your own peril
They way some of you guys reason is out of this world.

Great tricks. But she doesn't have to insert religious message that could limit its usage to Christians

Going by the deliberate 'murder' of English Language in the second definition, I can't help but conclude that the dictionary must be written by some quack(s).
There are bodies established for your cause but 70% don't know of their existence. I, also was guilty till I was advised/forced to make use of them recently. Thereby using this platform to educate us. Wouldn't go in depth to my own matter but will state some basic causes I treated there.
The two major Parastatal/Agency I worked with are MINISTRY OF LABOUR AND PRODUCTIVITY and OFFICE OF THE PUBLIC DEFENDER (OPD).
These two (2) organisations are in existence for any breach of contract signed between you and your employer. Those who are majorly culprits are sub-standard companies (popularly known as One Man Company) and Firms managed by Asians (particularly Indians). Don't get me wrong, there are companies who fits into those terms that have a standardised structure.
Now what are the cases you can treat there? 1. Unlawful termination of contract/appointment (if you know, you are the defaulter, don't even dare press charges) 2. Non-Remittance of Pension/Tax: This is a very grave offence that employers fears cos it's a big crime to the Government. If it was stated in your appointment letter/salary breakdown that you are entitled to these and no form of remittance. Dear Employee, you have a very strong case with backing of the government. You will have to work with National Pension Commission (PENCOM), Federal Internal Revenue Service/Lagos State Internal Revenue alongside OPD and Ministry of Labour and Productivity. The only "but", is that this step is IRREVERSIBLE. Once you submit petition to Pencom and FIRS/LIRS, it is no longer a fight between you and your employer but rather between the Employer and The Government. And once this takes place, the Company is good as dead. 3. Non-Payment of Salaries/Entitlements: Under this category, I wonder why Employees let Employers get away with this. You are exempted if your contract letter states otherwise on this. I see people forgo months of outstanding salaries, with the excuse they have moved on. I'm sorry, but that is a lie which you know. You just don't know how and where to handle it except the only option of begging your Ex-boss in which they barely yield. If your former employer decides to pay you off with a particular amount, that's quite OK and understandable. But if otherwise, press charges.
Now, some might be wondering the cost of hiring lawyers and stress if it's worth it at the long run. Glad to tell you this, THEIR SERVICES ARE FREE. You don't even need a lawyer. OPD for example renders their counsel, lawyers etc for FREE. Also Ministry tries as much as possible to sort it amicably with your former employer by setting up a meeting. This happens after you've written a petition to the State Controller. An officer is attached to your case who Sees to the rest.
All these points listed are very valid. Don't let any body frighten you. I would have been forgo my case but the said Employer never gave a response to my pleas and the outstanding amount was way too much to let go.
I won the case even without heading to court (which I was absolutely ready for). Using this platform to thank Ministry of Labour and Productivity and Office of the Public Defender for a job well done. Both advised me accordingly.
That's a very piece from you Op! I have two questions: 1. How does one initiate/commence the complaint? 2. In a situation where one does not intend to go confrontational with his boss, is there room for confidentiality?

Omofunaab2: So proud of Aruna Quadri, He made history at the 2016 Rio Olympics by becoming the first African to reach the Quarter finals of the table tennis single event. . He is currently ranked number one in Africa and he will represent Africa at the ITTF World Cup in France
Yorubas are the Masters when it comes to table tennis in Nigeria and Africa at large... Only the Egyptians are competing with us... Many of our Athletes have represented Nigeria in the Olympic games and won many laurels for Nigeria both at the common wealth and the All African games.
From the legend Segun Toriola, bode abiodun, bose kaffo, our own Monday Merotohun from Ogun state, Olufunke Oshonaike, Atanda Musa, kareem nasiru, Sule olaleye, Abiola odumosu and others.
I like the fact that we have young talents who will replace Aruna Quadri and funke Oshonaike.. The likes of Esther oribamise and Azeez Solanke are both tipped to do that.
Esther oribamise has qualified for next year's junior Olympics in Argentina, azeez lost in the semi final
Out of the ten players selected to represent Nigeria at the Africa junior table tennis championship in Tunisia, eight were yorubas
We have so many Table Tennis tournaments here in the West
