I ADMIRE THIS WOMAN'S STRENGTH AND COURAGE- TARAJI P.HENSON

Image
To every woman our there who is struggling and keeping the faith, believing that one day their time will come, I urge you to draw strength from this woman's story. She's been around for a while in the movie industry, but she wasn't really a house hold name, yet she kept at it. Until, Empire. The series the whole world is talking about now without mentioning "cookie"- that's the name character she played. She's been sought out since then.   I need you to know that as long as you are doing the right thing, don't give up,  prayerfully and faithfully keep at it, and one day, just like that, GOD will announce you. Every successful man and woman have a story behind their success!  BE INSPIRED AND DONT GIVE UP!  Photo credit: Instagram @tarajiphenson

WHY ARE PEOPLE TOO LAZY TO START SMALL?

Image
There's something beautiful about starting small. You know,  like nurturing a child, from the conception to the weeks of formation until the day of bringing forth the child and then watching the child grow every day. It's a mystery. Likewise, every success achieved was conceived and birthed and cared for which involved commitment, patience, courage, wisdom, love and every virtue that represents the combination of will and drive.  Then I ask, why are people too lazy to start small? Men want to hit it big without going through the process of nurturing and bringing forth, same with women.  They just want to live the comfortable life without being part of the man's success story. The attitude some people have towards "starting small" possibly scares them. Starting small has nothing to do with poverty or mediocrity, it only communicates a firm attitude that connects with passion and the patience to sieve through every tiny detail...friend my thought is

QUESTION BY A NEMERULEZ BLOG LOVER

Must someone fail before he/she learns? I ask this question because a lot of successful people I know, not the ones I read about either said something like "I learnt my lessons the hard way" or "before I got to where I am today, I had failed uncountable times". Please kindly give me your sincere answer. Thank you Neme for the opportunity to ask my questions.

Keep your past in the past. Even so, they had been great lessons to better your present. That goes to tell you that, every disappointment is a blessing in disguise.

IS HE YOUR FRIEND?

Image
Some men marry simply because they need someone to bear them children. They have no special feelings for the woman they marry, except to produce children. While some women marry because of the financial security and material satisfaction. And if the aboves are not met, such marriages would inevitably crash.  A friend is someone you can share your thoughts, desires, secrets and even fears with and will at all times be willing to protect your interest. A friend is someone you can be yourself with without pretense. A friend does not compromise you. A friend allows you to feel free to express yourself, encourages you, cares about you, makes up easily with you whenever you have any argument.  I will advise that if a man claims to love you and he does not posses the qualities of a true friend, run from such a man,  he is lying to you.  You can never hide the Truth because no matter how gentle a scorpion is, it will surely sting.  Being just gentle isn't the only fact

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

If you give up being who you are in other to become like someone else, you will end up being someone GOD does not need one more of. So stop trying to be someone else!

WHAT ARE YOUR SHADOW-BELIEFS?

What are your shadow-beliefs? The negative voice that tells you that, you are not worthy, you are not able, you will never make it, you are a failure, success is not meant for someone like you and so many other lies.  Today, I urge you to bring them all out into the light and expose them to GODS word. Do not let them control you or decide your future or keep you down!  Refuse to accept any thought that is contrary to what GOD says about you. You cannot speak death over your life, dreams and expect to see them come to life.  Someone might say, "I am not loved or cared for", But it does not matter how others think or feel about you. What you should find out is what GOD has said about HIS feelings and thoughts for you.  HE says in Isaiah 43:4 that you are precious to HIM and that you are HIS honoured and beloved one. Imagine that! So who has the final say?  Man can never be greater than GOD. It is wise that you choose to believe what GOD has said concerning you

REFLECTION

GOD never wastes experience! If Moses had not been raised in the palace, don't you think that Pharaoh would probably have seen him as some person with the highest degree of madness and had him killed immediately for "wasting his precious time and telling him nonsense"? But his past positioned him for his future.   And also for his desert training, he was able to feed, clothe, protect and lead an entire nation though the wilderness.  What are you going through right now? I tell you, you are privileged. Yes you are! Because you are at a very big advantage and you know better, peradventure for a bigger calling ahead. 

YOUR ASSIGNMENT. GO FOR IT!

Do you know that you were born with assignment(s)? Years back,  I didn't know my assignment until I started asking GOD for HIS direction. I have come across people who do not know what they are created for.  It will help you to know that your GOD-GIVEN assignments will always tug at your heart, lead to your highest fulfilment and unlock your compassion and creativity.  Whether GOD has called you to be a baker, a writer, a motivational speaker, a butcher, a candlestick maker, a soap maker, a bead maker,  go for it! And someone will ask me, "but I don't have money to start,", I tell you,  start with the little you have.  It will amaze you to know that your assignment does not necessarily require a lot of money to start. No wonder you  hear a lot of successful people who will tell you that they started with little or nothing at all. So go for it my dear friend, you can do it! 

HAPPY FATHERS' DAY

THE STORY OF THE SCORPION AND THE FROG! A LIFE TEACHING STORY.

One day, the scorpion asked the frog to carry him across the river on his back because he could not swim. The frog replied, "But how sure am I that you will not sting me while we are crossing? "The scorpion replied, "I promise I won't, because if I sting you, we will both drown!" After thinking through it, the frog told the scorpion to hop on.  Half way across the river, the scorpion stung the frog anyway. So as they were drowning, the frog said to the scorpion in pains, "but you promised you wouldn't, why did you sting me? The scorpion replied, "I couldn't help it, it is in my nature to sting!".  This is a very touching story and also very teachable. Stop opening your door for toxic people, then you call it seeking for closure. My biology tell me that toxic substances are very harmful to the humans and the environment. So why open yourself to toxic people or even dare to give a listening ear to them? The result has never been a g

FIND OUT WHAT DOROTHY LAW NOLTE WROTE ABOUT "A CHILD". THIS IS VERY TRUE...CHILDREN RESPOND TO WHATEVER THEY SEE YOU DO OR SAY!

Image
If a child lives with criticism, he learns to condemn, If a child lives with hostility,he learns to fight,  If a child lives with ridicule, he learns to be shy, If a child lives with shame, he learns to feel guilty,  If a child lives with tolerance, he learns to be patient,  If a child lives with encouragement, he learns to be confident,  If a child lives with praise,  he learns to appreciate,  If a child lives with fairness, he learns justice,  If a child lives with security, he learns to have faith,  If a child lives with approval,  he learns to like himself,  If a child lives with acceptance and friendship, he learns to find love in the world. 

REFLECTION

Are you trying to control what's not yours to control? Are you fretting over circumstances you can't humanly change? (except by constantly declaring GODS word over it and holding on to your faith in The Only One who cannot change but can change things)  Just ask GOD to reveal HIS will concerning that matter, acknowledge that HE is GOD, that HE is in charge and knows exactly what to do.

FIND OUT WHY I CALL HIM THE MASTER POTTER...

Image
Just a little word to my friends out there. The Master Potter is still in the business of forming and filling us. It helps if you know this truth, especially when you are on the wheel and everything seems to be spinning out of control.  The Potter is in the control process. HE is monitoring every move you make, even in that "bad" situation. If the enemy had been in control,  he would have thrown you off years ago. Don't worry, the Potter is not intimidated by the clay, regardless of how flawed it may be. Others will press you down, but the Potter will pull you up and keep lifting you higher.  That's why I call GOD, THE MASTER POTTER. 

LIFE IS A SCHOOL....SO LEARN!

Having less information does not make you less. Know that life is a school and every new acquaintance is a teacher. Whatever others know, they have not always known it. Do not feel less of yourself because you do not know. The terrible thing against not knowing is not learning. So, seize every opportunity to learn. Most importantly, pick the right people to learn from. Recognise bad friendships/associations and walk away from them before they take you down with them. Bear this in mind, you cannot partner successfully with somebody who does not share your goals or the degree of your strength.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

When GOD defines you, what difference does anybody else's opinion make?

REFLECTION

Life will either bury you or bless you; it all depends on which one you choose. With the right attitude, life will bless you. Stop sounding defeated each time you are faced with a challenge. When you are faced with a challenge or life throws dirts on you, just shake it off and step on it. Infact, see those dirts as manure that will help you grow stronger. Also know that no one can make you feel inferior without your consent. 

STORMS COME FOR A REASON. NEVER QUIT!!!

Image
In the course of life, I discovered that storms come for a reason. They also come for a season. All that is needed is for one to discover the reason for the storm and become wiser; outlast the season and become stronger. Can you think of one quitter who accomplished anything in life?  William Blake said, "There's no mistake so great as the mistake of not going on!".  You all know the inventor of telephone, Alexander Graham Bell. The truth is, a German school teacher named Reese could have been the one the whole world know as the inventor of telephone.  What happened?  Reese's phone could convey sounds of whistling and humming, but not speech. But he gave up when he thought that something was missing and couldn't persevere to continue with his experiment. So, many years later after Reese had given up, Alexander Bell discovered his error. A tiny screw that controlled the electrodes was off by one - thousandth of an inch. Bell made this very minor ad

WHAT DO YOU SAY TO YOURSELF EVERY TIME YOU WAKE UP?

What you pronounce to yourself when you wake up will determine how good or bad your day will go.  As a child of GOD, you need to know your position. People say bad news fly very fast, so is your negative pronouncement. I can relate with you if you wake up and feel like complaining and caring about the things of this world, yet you can choose to say "This is the day that the LORD has made and I shall rejoice and be glad in it". You will feel peace and great assurance because my Bible tells me that you have whatever you say.  When you're feeling low and your husband feels you and talks to you, don't you feel assured? Of course you do and bounce back. It's amazing. That's what GOD wants us to do every time we wake up, whether we are feeling good or not-go to HIS word and declare HIS great assurance to us, no matter what your situation looks like.   Live and soar!!!
