FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSES… No matter who you are or what your personality is, it is impossible to live this life without some conflict along the way, Bishop Jakes shares. Offenses come to everyone and they are a part of life. Bishop Jakes says, “…conflicts can be resolved and relationships do have a future, if we learn to forgive.” We must be willing to look at our own ability to hurt, offend, and injure those around us, (who are often the people we love the most) in order to forgive others. The Lord’s Prayer provides us with a key insight into how we can experience the joy and abundant life Jesus came to bring us “Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us (Matt. 6-11 KJV). Bishop Jakes says many people don’t realize when they pray this prayer they are asking God to forgive them the same way they are forgiving (or not forgiving) others. Also that these words tie my forgiveness with my willingn...

INFLUENCE Hey guys just learnt something new and I decided to shear with us, it’s going to be brief I promise, I’m sure many of us keep hearing about influencing your world, but it looks dumb to you and you begin to ask yourself questions like “how are my going to influence my world when am not the president of my country, not the king in my town, am not a politician am not even a clergy?” Now what is influence? According to the English dictionary   “ influence is the power to affect, control or manipulate something or someone; the ability to change the development of fluctuating things such as conduct, thoughts or decisions.”      So I want to assume the definition seem hard so we don’t even think about influence at all, but have you ever redefined influence to/for yourself  or met anyone with a better definition? Now check out this definition of influence “Influence is changing without force, moving people in one direction without force.”...

A Poem of Hope When life is getting you down, and you need a little hope. Look deep down inside yourself, and you'll find the way to cope. When life is getting you down, and you need a little love. Go to the person whom you are the closest, as the rest they are above. When life is getting you down, and all you need is a laugh. Find the friend that makes you smile, they may even be your staff. When life is getting you down, dDon't allow it so. Change the way you think of life, and life will be better, you know. When life is getting you down, take time to pray Don't allow yourself to frown God will help you see the blessings of the day Poet: Catherine Pulsifer , ©2012

You lose the ability to focus as distraction becomes a habit. "We've trained our brains to be unfocused," Rock says. Practice concentration by turning off all distractions and committing your attention to a single task. Start small, maybe five minutes per day, and work up to larger chunks of time. Your personal work environment plays a large role in your ability to concentrate. The more comfortable and welcoming your environment is, the easier it will likely be for you to stay there and focus. Here are some ideas for improving your physical environment: Make sure you're comfortable – Start by ensuring that your chair and desk are at the right height for you to work comfortably. If your chair is too high or your desk is too low, you'll be uncomfortable, and you'll be tempted to use this as an excuse to get up and walk away. Put up pictures – Viewing a natural scene or watching wildlife can help improve concentration. If you...

          A Red, Red Rose O my Luve’s like a red, red rose That’s newly sprung in June; O my Luve’s like the melodie That’s sweetly play’d in tune. As fair art thou, my bonnie lass, So deep in luve am I: And I will luve thee still, my dear, Till a’ the seas gang dry: Till a’ the seas gang dry, my dear, And the rocks melt wi’ the sun: I will luve thee still, my dear, While the sands o’ life shall run. And fare thee well, my only Luve And fare thee well, a while! And I will come again, my Luve, Tho’ it were ten thousand mile. (— Robert Burns,)

                                                   Nelson Mandela, South Africa’s first black president, Nobel Prize winner and anti-Apartheid icon passed away on Thursday at his home in Johannesburg at the age of 95. By any standard, Madiba , as he was fondly referred to by those who loved him, lived a robust, fulfilling and impactful life. Few people have had as much impact on history as Madiba had. History will remember him as one of the greatest men who ever lived - an incredibly selfless man who made so much of a sacrifice to re-write the history of generations of South Africans and the world. During his lifetime Mandela inspired us with his numerous words of wisdom, etched in our memories till tomorrow. And his words remain evergreen: 1. I am fundamentally an optimist. Whether that comes from nature or nurtu...

                    Poems for Family Just as the earth goes through seasons, so does a family in the course of time endure seasons. Falling in love, marriage and the birth of a children are times of renewal like Spring. Long pleasant periods of calm are like the feeling of an endless Summer. As we and our children grow older, our leaves start to change. We start to experience Autumn. This may seem like dying but it is only signs of a new phase of life. Crises and hardship are times for the family to stay close together, help each other out and endure the frigid winds of change. This period is akin to Winter. Life is full of seasons and changes which are best experienced with the support of friends and family.

Honesty and loyalty It is always honesty or loyalty; there is no such thing as honest loyalty. Sarah and Felix were friends; everything was going well until Sarah decided to confess her flaw to Felix. They have been good friends for a very long time and they know each other so well that that even when their parents can’t guess their next move one of the two of them knows it. They know each other’s attitude; they know what they can do and what they can’t do. None of them had the issue of taking what does not belong to them, so it was a kind of shock when Sarah said she stole a medicine from a medicine store. She tried to talk herself out of the guilt but the deed was done. She said her mum was on the sick bed and that she had no money She tried to reach him (Felix) but she couldn’t get through to him. Felix couldn’t believe but as a friend he made sure she promised not to do that again, and she did promise and as well also made him promise not to tell anyone and he ...

The state of lautech Great lautech, once upon a time the best state university in Nigeria. It id so disheartening that the once bright future of this great institution has gone dim. Sometimes ago, education was one of the most important thing in our beloved country Nigeria. But now, it is trash where it is not regarded as anything. As painful as it is, “LAUTECH” that has not been open for any academic activity for over a year is still ranked the 25th best higher institution out of the 100+ of them we have in Nigeria. And then you begin to wonder, what other institutions are doing.  Just imagine the engineering faculty of this once upon a time great institution tipped to be to become the backbone of technology advancement in this country now in desolate and even covered with weeds all over, the question now goes thus, who is to be blamed??? As expected, all fingers would point at the two owner state. Hmm, have we ever considered what the F.G is doing ...

               DECIDE TO GO FOR UTOPIA .... Utopia means the perfect place where there is love, health, peace, wealth, and happiness a land beyond description. Most people believe we cannot find or create utopia on earth. In fact, the word utopia, coined by Sir Thomas more, comes from two Greek words which combined, mean “no place.”                                              Utopia is beyond the reach of our society until we overcome the obstacle that stands in our way. And what are these obstacles? Negativism, fear, depression, and the problems they create discouragement, economic stagnation, crime, drug dependency, family distrust, and many more. Some argue that we are moving away fr...

I am happy to join with you today in what will go down in history as the greatest demonstration for freedom in the history of our nation. Five score years ago, a great American, in whose symbolic shadow we stand today, signed the Emancipation Proclamation. This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of their captivity. But one hundred years later, the Negro still is not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination. One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. And so we've come here today to dramatize a shameful...

MY NIGERIA Lying so cozily on the woolish couch Of serenity – lost in the well of desire; Seeking for the recall of a glory, unbruised – A rightful repositioning of the highly revered Dark giant, on the divinely ordained throne of greatness; An overdue rebirth – a redefinition of Values still lost on the altar of corruption. It’s time to tear down the rabid partitions built On the destructive pile of tribalism; Rooting out the hydra-headed monster of religion. There’s need to mow off the weeds of insincere Leadership – enthroning faithful brave hearts, Wielding the weapons of truth and justice – Draped in the robes of honesty and Dedication; with a deep sense of duty – a passion To ascend our Fatherland to the pinnacle of matchless Prosperity – finally linking the poor and the rich. The right step begins with you ! Good luck Nigeria!
