Money do not make a home

Money can build a house but it takes love to make a home. You could have a house without a home. Which one do you want?Give your spouse the attention they need. Do not neglect your duties and obligations. Do not spoil your spouse with money and expensive gifts and starve them of love and attention.

Miracles Happen Everyday

Some people do not believe in miracles, Everyday is a miracle, your waking up is a miracle. You reading this right now is a miracle, so many people would like to read but cannot.  Your life is a miracle whether you believe it or not does not matter. Think about it

WHO AM I?

If you do not know where you are going, you will never know how to get there. The question everyone should ask is, Who am I? When you know yourself- your weakness, your strength, your aspirations, you will be able to plan, execute and reach your goals. Do not be a drifter, know thy self. Think about it!

WHAT IS LIFE?

Life is a great travel trip: Everyone is on  a journey.  The only problem  is that it doesn't  come with a map. We have to search  for our own to reach our destination.  Some give up along the way while others  march on to their  glorious  destination. Think about it!

EVERYBODY IS A WINNER

Everybody is a winner. You are only a loser when you believe it. God created everyone unique and special. The fact that you have lack, limitation and that you have not excel in life does not make you less important. Keep on striving, be positive and you will reach your desired goal, even if you don't accomplish much, you are still a winner. Think about it!

YOU CAN STILL MAKE IT

It does not matter, how long you have waited to fulfill certain dreams or desire that need to be accomplished. It does not matter, that all your  hope seems to be lost. It does not matter, that you have even  decided to give up. What matters most, is that you can still make it. Cast your worries and doubt away. Plan new strategies, re-double your efforts and have a positive mindset. Above all, pray and trust in the almighty God for a breakthrough. You will make it

THERE IS NO PERFECT LIFE

Do not be deceived by what you see as perfect in the lives of others. Everyone you see have their own 'baggage'. From the richest to the poorest, from the most beautiful to the most ordinary, we all have our own issues.  The problem only varies  from one  individual to another. 
Therefore stop the unhealthy comparison and competition.  Focus on your life, make the best of what you have and work hard for a better tomorrow. For all you know, the people that you envy maybe secretly wishing   they were like you. There is no perfect life, appreciate the life you have.

MARRIAGE IS HARDWORK

Marriage is good, sweet but it is not easy. So many people go into marriage with over bloated expectation and when they see the opposite, they become discouraged.
Friends , marriage is not easy, it is hard work.  Wedding day is not only the attainment of a purpose but it is  also the beginning of another journey. To have a long lasting and successful marriage, you must be  patient and put in more effort to make it a success. Do not compare your marriage to another, see your own as the best and make it the best. Do not waste time dwelling on the negative side of your spouse, instead correct him or her in love and appreciate the positive side of your partner.
Above all, make up your mind now that your marriage will be successful and be prepared to make it so.
Remember, you cannot do it on your own, you must have good relationship with the almighty God who makes all things beautiful

SHOULD COUPLES HAVE A JOINT ACCOUNT?

Money issues have broken many marriages because it is a very delicate matter. My view is that couples should operate separate accounts and only have a joint account for children's education or a special project. A male colleague of mine complained of how his wife secretly withdrew the money in their joint account which is currently creating serious friction in their home.
You must handle money matters carefully if you want peace in your home
What do you think? Should couples operate joint accounts?
