As a Child of God, How Do You Respond Under The Heat of The Faith
Many of us have different threshold levels when it comes to trials and temptations which is why Our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ gives us Scriptures to hold on to and confess in those trying times for maximum strength and assured victory.
Some are cast your burdens on Him for He cares for you.
His yoke is easy and His burden is light
Many are the afflictions of the righteous but the Lord delivers them of them all
And so on.....
Below is also a very inspiring story to help encourage you that how you react and respond during those trying period really matters a lot and that is why we as children of God must remain steadfast in the faith.
Potatoes, Eggs, and Coffee Beans
Once upon a time a daughter complained to her father that her life was miserable and that she didn’t know how she was going to make it. She was tired of fighting and struggling all the time. It seemed just as one problem was solved, another one soon followed.
A short Story.... Failure Is Part of Success.
Have you ever failed before???? I guess we all have at some point in life...
Here's a short Story to encourage someone going through one right now and is not having it easy..
---------------------------------------------------------------------
As a man was passing the elephants, he suddenly stopped, confused by the fact that these huge creatures were being held by only a small rope tied to their front leg. No chains, no cages. It was obvious that the elephants could, at anytime, break away from their bonds but for some reason, they did not.
He saw a trainer nearby and asked why these animals just stood there and made no attempt to get away. “Well,” trainer said, “when they are very young and much smaller we use the same size rope to tie them and, at that age, it’s enough to hold them. As they grow up, they are conditioned to believe they cannot break away. They believe the rope can still hold them, so they never try to break free.”

10 THINGS YOU MUST DISCUSS IN COURTSHIP.
1. WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO LIVE AFTER WEDDING? Compulsory! So the guy won't drag you back to his father's house or squat with a friend. Discuss the type of apartment: a room, room and parlour, a mini flat, 2 bedroom flat, 3 bedroom, duplex, complex, whatever, talk, thoroughly. Don't forget to discuss how rent will be paid. If he has built his house and you are moving in, excellent.
2. WILL YOU HAVE BABIES IMMEDIATELY OR YOU WILL WAIT? Discuss thoroughly. If you will wait, find out the best family planning method that will suit your body. Not all injections and pills are suitable for you. Withdrawal is not advisable for first time sex on honeymoon likewise condom. First sex should be done with abandon and also get used to each other's bodies especially as virgins. Singles who are sexually active right now are digging their marital grave. If you are already having sex like mad and taking family planning pills as a single lady, it is a big shame and a disgrace to womanhood. Marry with dignity. Save sex till your wedding night.
3. HOW WILL BILLS BE PAID?
Who will pay the rent, take care of bills and groceries? Is it the man? The woman or both of you? At how many percentage if it is a joint responsibility? 50/50? 80/20? 60/40? Discuss.
4. WILL ANY FAMILY MEMBER LIVE WITH YOU AFTER WEDDING? Discuss. Who and who will live with you? Why? For how long? Can you cope having a family live with you immediately after honey moon? Can your type of accommodation allow such? It is not advisable for the opposite sex sibling to live with you after honey moon in a room apartment. It is more dangerous if it is the wife's very mature younger sister. Use your head!

A Proverbs 31 Wife
A wife is a woman lawfully and legally married to a man. Every wife is prima facie a woman but not every woman is a wife. The Holy Bible which is the everyday living manual for the Children of God on all aspects of life whether spiritual or physical (including marriage affairs) has spelt out detailed instructions on how marriage as a whole should work if it is to function properly and succeed, the roles and responsibilities of both the husband and wife and how a wife if she is to build up her home and bring favour as well as God's blessings on her husband and entire household must conduct herself.
According to the Bible which is the living word of God, a wife is the only person God calls a helper (or a helpmeet) to another individual (who must be her husband) after the Holy Spirit ( who Himself is God and the third person of the Holy Trinity).

Who are your friends???
I guess the age-long sayings that birds of the same feather flock together and show me your friends and I will tell you who you are were both borne out of the wise realization that one's friends have a lot to contribute to the actualization or abortion of a man's greatness and destiny fulfilment in life. Friends have a very strong influence in each other's lives. They can either be a ladder to climb to success in life or not just pull one down but also bury one's destiny forever.

Ladies learn how to stop complicating your relationships and lives by comparison
Me and my Husband weeks before our wedding... |
"Babe you know we haven't seen each other since my husband came back from jand (i.e a trip overseas or outside the country) last week. Nne eh!, I swear hubby came back with a lot of goodies for me and the kids. It's like he went shopping for us, which is still apart from the shopping trip he promised us to Dubai during ths year's summer holiday. He bought us all sorts of designer clothes you can think of, bags, shoes, makeup for me, underwears and even school stationeries for the kids... That man is just full of everyday surprises for me.

Early Sex Education for your children... Why you must do it!
Parents remember the saying that goes : " Catch them young" refers to all things in life whether good or bad and since we all know that the days we live in are evil coupled with the fact that we have a duty to protect our little ones at all times, I bring to your door step this bombshell: LITTLE CHILDREN EVEN BELOW THE AGES OF TEN ARE NOW SEXUALLY ACTIVE". Many of usparents are too busy pirsuing our careers that we hardly have the time to monitor our kids and spend meaningful time with them anymore. We often leave them unsupervised in the care of nannys, child crae-givers, house helps and maid servants or relatives. The things they see, watchvia television, hear form all manners of sources are therefore not monitored by us. This tends to expose them too early to societal vices such all manners of illicit tele-medias and broad ady light immorality. Some of our kids are even sadly molested or sexually abused by most of these persons whom we push aour parenting responsiblities to for far too long befeore we get to find out.

Core hygenic habits you must teach your child early...
Cleanliness is next to Godliness is a common saying, but permit me to add my own voice by saying that a clean child is a healthy child and a healthy child is a happy child. Since we all want happy children, we as parents, guardiands and child-care givers have a collective responsibilty to teach our children very early on life on the need and importance of cleanliness and maintaining a personal hygiene. In order to acheive this, parents, teachers, guardians and care givers must inculcate very core hygiene patterns into young children in order for them protect themselves from germs, air-borne and water-borne diseases and other illness arising from dirtiness and a poor body and evirionmental hygiene level. Some of these first hygenic training to be taught early to every child are as follows but are not limited to these (you can add more as the need arises daily):
Do You know that Love is a Door Opener
A certain woman opened the door of her front yard early one morning after her husband had already left home for work and was surprised to see three old men with long white beards sitting under her oak tree comfortably. In her shock, she gently approached them and inquired of them whom they sought to see (in case there were at the wrong address). To her second amazement, they mentioned her husband's name in full. She then informed them that he wasn't home as he had already left for work, and then asked them to come into the house and wait for him while she quickly sends for him to come home at once. One of the wise men then spoke up on behalf of others saying: "Madam our names are wealth, health and love and we are all brothers but we do not enter into any house/home we choose to visit all at once. Our choice host must pick only one of the three of us while others wait outside or go somewhere else. Whichever one of us is chosen goes in bearing gifts synonymous with his name to that family. That is why we demand to see the head of any household we visit so as to make that choice and decision for his entire family. So please maa'm kindly send for your husband."

Mothers' Day Celebration... How I celebrated it.
First of all, even though the actual date has passed, we are still mesmerized by the mood of it; therefore permit me to say happy mothers'day to all mothers, expectant mothers and mothers-to-be. But the question now becomes, who is a mother? A mother is first of all a woman, even though not all women are mothers. A mother is not just one who biologically births a child; but also one who cares, nurtures, loves, trains, guides and brings up a child.
