YOUR FAITH IS TOO SMALL!






I was opportune to read this beautiful and challenging article which holds an important message(s) for all. I just couldn’t help but share this here. It’s a short story of ‘Two Fishermen’. Enjoy!


“Two men went fishing. One was an experienced fisherman, the other wasn’t. Every time the experienced fisherman caught a big fish, he put it in his ice chest to keep it fresh. Whenever the inexperienced fisherman caught a big fish, he threw it back.
The experienced fisherman watched this go on all day and finally got tired of seeing the man waste good fish. “Why do you keep throwing back all the big fish you catch?” he asked.
The inexperienced man replied “I only have a small frying pan”.

Sometimes, like that inexperienced fisherman, we throw back the big plans, big dreams, big jobs and big opportunities God brings our way. The reason is not farfetched! It’s because our faith is small!
We laugh at that fisherman who didn’t figure out that all he needed was a bigger frying pan, yet how ready are we to increase the size of our faith?

Whether it’s a problem or a possibility, God will never give you anything bigger than you can handle. That means we can confidently walk into anything God brings our way”.

My question to you right now is: What’s the size of your faith?

 Do you even have one?




Do you have big plans for yourself? Are you choosing to settle for less?
Do your dreams scare you because they seem big?

Are you beginning to let go of opportunities that appear ‘big’ because you feel you’re limited?


Think twice!
Partner with God!
Don’t settle for less!
A better life awaits you!

I CAN DRESS MODESTLY AND STILL LOOK BEAUTIFUL

Image
Indecent dressing is fast becoming an epidemic especially among young persons (especially among females). The rate of increase in immodesty is alarming as many have now thrown to the gutters the initial purpose of wearing clothes which is to cover their nakedness. Another reason why people may decide to wear clothes is to appear 'presentable' and most importantly 'beautiful' but even this has been abused by some. I strongly believe that is not out of place in the 21st century to have young ladies who dress modestly and still look beautiful! I have seen a number of them and this remains one of the reason they have gained my respect. It is the same for every other responsible guy out there. This is what some females fail to know. It is to that effect I've decided to join this movement #You can dress modestly & still look beautiful. I totally agree with what Doug Herman,  the author of the book 'Come clean' said in his book. ...

PAUSE AND THINK (Vol.2): BEFORE SAYING THOSE WORDS!

Image
I’m sure you were able to pick one or two things from the previous volume, ‘pause and think before pointing that finger’. This volume promises not to be an exception as we’ll be looking at something very critical. Critical because we are all involved and connected with this subject. We use it every day of our lives! I’ll like to also include that the writer of this article is also not exempted from the ‘blames’, messages and lessons that can be drawn from the article. We’ll be talking about PAUSE & THINK BEFORE SAYING THOSE WORDS’   WORDS! WORDS!! WORDS!!! Human beings are very sensitive to words especially on the receiving end. Interestingly, we fall to both the giving and receiving end, although at specific moments. This article majorly addresses ‘the givers’.   Words have the power of influence both on the positive and negative side. The subject of ‘words’ must not be taken for granted. Words are instruments. Words relay feelings, emotions, moments,...

FRIENDSHIP SCANDALS (Volume 1)

Image
FRIENDSHIP SCANDALS. Why Friendship scandals? It doesn't sound cool, does it?  Nope, it doesn't. Here, we'll not only be concerned with personal life experiences of people with regards to friendship matters but the lessons we can learn from these experiences to be better friends and develop better friendship qualities much more. Don't get me wrong. Friends are cool to keep when are good. Be one! It promises to be lessons packed. It would entertain several parts that cuts across betrayal, jealousy, pride, lies, selfishness, malice, distrust, pretence and many more.  I GOT TIRED OF HER LIES! After my experience with Cecilia, I was thrown into confusion on which gender had more 'professional liars'. Within a short period of time I had gulped over a litre of lies. But why? Was she trying to impress me, paint a different picture of herself or what? I admired people for being real, truthful and unique. All these things were present i...
