WHAT LENGTHENS TRYING TIME? James 1:3-4 “Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.

1 Corinthians 10:13 “There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God is faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear it.” At some given point in time, every man gets to that point where by, they get tired of life. Everything seems not working. It seems like the world is against them, and they look out for what God had told them prior to that time. it wasn’t in…

Where has my innocence gone? I want my naive self back! I hope my second life would learn Not to arose love when it’s not yet. #World_Sexual_Purity_Day ©Ife Adetona
#FARE WELL When the little sheep was lost The shepherd went all out in search When the son left home The father waited for him to return The sheep was lost but the son left The shepherd searched but the father waited The father nurses his wound day n night Until the son returns It’s no small pain in a father’s heart That a son or daughter nursed to maturity neglected him The father prays: wherever you go whatever you do Remain a believer And quickly come to your senses. The father would come for me he said But no…

Sandalili Sandalili Sandalili Sandalili I’m a lawyer in my country… That’s all I wanted to be My childhood dream Career is all I intended to pursue And to finance the kingdom from my income Not to “live” on people’s tithe, offerings or gifts. But suddenly, my heart rang He called With much persuasion I obeyed, Here I am, slained on His altar In my hopeless state, I’m tasked to give hopes In my poverty, I’m called to make others rich In my sickness, I’m asked to heal In my mourning, I’m demanded to give comfort And in all, I’m not…

Not be me, I dey here. Whenever I hear young people make this announcement, two things come to mind. If they announced it publicly, it is childish and it was an invitation to a “pity party”. They want you to ask “why”. On the other hand, whether they make it public or not, it sounds to me like, “help, I am depressed”. I have had to speak with some people who are very close to me and the reason they usually state is: “I have an academic challenge, I want some focus”. ” I am depressed”, “I want to retreat…
Russia did believe that when they roll their tanks into Ukraine, they will surrender or flex some muscles but in a week or two, it will all be over. I guess they thought it would work out just like when the Taliban took over Afghanistan in 2021 or when Russia seized Crimea in 2014. Don’t dare a man ready to die fighting.

He replied: ” I don’t…
