Focus on what you have achieved this years and not what you have not. In short begin to count your blessings: the fact that you are able to read this is a blessing, many are not oppdrtuned. Also, trust God to do whatever good thing you are still expecting. Your miracle can come even at the last hour. Finally, be careful, prayerful as we round up the year. May the almighty God crown this year with success for you and family. Cheers!

DO NOT BE DISCOURAGED

Beloved, do not be discouraged! there are so many problems everywhere; political, economic, personal issues that can bring a lot of frustration if one is not watchful. My word to you today is; be of good cheer! no matter what is going on in your country, family and in your own life. Life itself is a battle, be determined to fight and have victory in every situation. Bear in mind, that you cannot WIN without the help of the almighty God; therefore surrender your life and problems to Him, allow him to guide you and lead you to success. The fact that marriages, relationships are breaking down or that the down-turn of the economy is affecting many does not mean you must be among. You are different, special, belief it and act on it. Cheers!!!!

BEWARE OR FRUSTRATION

Have ever wondered why some go to the extent of committing suicide? It start from feelings of dissatisfaction, disappointment and gradually it builds up to become acute frustration. No one is immune to such negative feelings, because we all go through our various trials. But your attitude and the way you deal with such feelings will determine whether it will just go away or lead to bigger problems. Frustration does no come suddenly, it's a gradual thing. It creep into your mind and like a seed it germinate and bear fruits of anger, bitterness, suicidal tendencies. We must as a matter of personal policy never give room to frustration in our lives. Problems are part of life, they will always come and go, you must as an individual, have an inbuilt system to handle difficult times and avoid frustration. TIPS ON HOW TO AVOID FRUSTRATION; 1, Do not allow negative thoughts to dwell on your mind for too long. Purge them out, by focusing your mind on more pleasant happening in your life 2, Make yourself happy. Do whatever gives you joy; sing, dance, listen to good music, visit friends with good sense of humor, change your looks etc. 3, Identify the source of the problem and deal with it calmly and rationally. 4, Talk to someone who is in a possible to help you. Seek wise counsel. Do not keep quiet and die of frustration. Read books dealing with the problem at hand. 5, Above all, turn to the almighty God who us able to solve every problem of life and who will also give you peace even in the midst of difficult situations

LAUGHTER, IS MEDICINE

Life is full of ups and downs! There are so many issues creating stress in our lives; ranging from family problems, failed relationships, job- related problems; as such some people do not even smile anymore, and laughter is completely ruled out. There are so many benefits of laughter, which are needed even more in stressful situations. Laughter can help you to manage stress; laughter can dismantle depression. Laughter can help you to defeat fear and worry. If you are sick , laughter can stimulate your healing process. Even those who study medicine have told us that laughter has psychological, social and even spiritual benefits. Laughter relaxes all tensed muscles and lower your blood pressure. Laughter can pave way for a new and exciting life for you , A smile creates happiness and it fosters good relationships. Laughter is the cheapest tonic we can enjoy; don't let a day go by without laughing at least once! Learn to smile more, and laugh when happy and even when sad!

Be Yourself

You can never please everybody, even if you try.There will always be times when you are compelled to say NO to somebody even when it hurts. So many people are in difficult situations today because they refused to act when it mattered most. For instance a friend tries to introduce a business to you which you feel uncomfortable with, what do you do? Politely say NO, no matter long or deep your friendship is. Many people are in prison today because of one bad influence they could not control. There are times you just have to "offend" even those you hold in high esteem by telling them the trust when you know they are wrong.Some people find it difficult to tell their bosses or even their parents and friends that they are wrong, even when they are sure, they see it as a sign of respect. At the end when things go wrong, they become bitter towards the same people they refused to correct. Self- denial often leads to regrets, make your point politely but firmly, do not be afraid even if the other person is offended; most proud people or those who think they are better than you will always take offense when you correct them. The bottom line is, let the right things be done whether in the home, family, office, school, business, relationships etc. Be yourself, if you try to please everybody, you will end up pleasing nobody. Cheers!!!!

THE POWER OF FORGIVENESS

The ability to forgive is one attribute we must imbibe in order to have meaningful relationships in every aspect of life- family,marriage,career,dating,friendships.
If we are sincere, we would realize that so many failed relationships,businesses or even career can be trace to our inability to forgive our offenders.Some people are in the habit of bearing grudges,keeping malice at any slight provocation.At times they allow few minutes misunderstanding to spoil a relationship they have built over time.
Some people cannot forgive because of their excessive pride, they rather wait for an elaborate apology from those that wronged them before contemplating forgiveness.This is very wrong, because forgiveness should be apart of our life, it should be given to all,whether they deserve it or not
REASONS WHY FORGIVENESS IS POWERFUL;
1,Forgiveness brings peace to everyone involve, especially you who has been magnanimous to forgive.
2,It project you better in the eyes of others.It is not a sign of weakness,rather it shows maturity and dignity
3,It enables God to forgive you, and release you delayed blessings
4,Finally, when you forgive others, people find it easier to forgive you when you offend them,remember no human being is perfect you are bound to offend others occasionally too.
Therefore learn to forgive no matter the situation.Unforgiving spirit is a burden you must cast away. Be at peace with yourself and your fellow human beings. FORGIVE!
FORGIVE!

NO VENTURE, NO GAIN.

What are the things you really desire now? Pause, and think of that special need in your life.Is it more money,husband/wife,good job,children,good health,peace in the family etc.The list is endless,as our faces varies, so do our needs and aspirations.
Now,what are you doing to realize your dreams? It is one thing to identify a problem,it is even more important to know how to obtain solutions to such problems.No matter how long a problem has existed and how much you have tried to resolve it, you must never gift up until the solution comes.There is no impossibility with God.
The first thing to do, is to deeply and prayerfully analyze the problem to know the source of it, and to identify mistakes we may have made in the past which is hindering the manifestation of the solution.
Secondly,utilize new strategies to realize your objective,when one road close, another opens.There are always many genuine ways of solving a problem.Do not fall into the trap of believing that you have done all that you can humanly do to achieve your goals.
The solution maybe in doing something totally different from what you are used to.As long as the method use is legal and is not against God' doctrine try it out,it may just work out.For instance,some people have meant their spouse through social network sites or even adverts in magazines which maybe regarded as unconventional.They tried it, and it worked for them.
Some have become rich through internet marketing.Many of become parents using the advanced reproductive technology in the world.
Finally,always do research on ways to get out of any difficult situation.And in everything you do, do not forget to put God first.Every genuine and good success can only be achieve through the support of the almighty God; trust in him.

WHO IS YOUR ADVISER?

This is question we all have to ask ourselves.It is a well known fact that no man has a monopoly of knowledge,at one point or the other there might be need to seek counsel concerning very important issues.The adviser and the quality of advice given may determine the outcome of a situation.Acting on wrong advice may lead to bigger problems.Therefore the person or people you turn to for counseling is very important.
Some people have the habit of narrating every issue or situations in their lives to friends,invariably they are more likely to be bombarded with different shades of advice, at times detrimental to their wellbeing.Some take their relationship issues to their friends and family members, who at times advice them base on sentiments.
Who then should be your adviser?
1,Someone who has shown the ability to be sincere and trustworthy.
2,Someone who is more knowledgeable in the area you need advice.
3,Someone who has your best interest at heart.Do not ask for advice or counsel from anyone you are not convinced is favorably dispose towards you.
4,Someone with the fear of God in him/her.This is very important because godly counsel is ultimately the best even though you may not like it at the time it was given.
5,Finally,allow the word of God to counsel you.There is nothing you need that has not be taken care of in the word of God.Meditate on the word of God,have a close relationship with your maker,you will have all the answers to your problems.Christ is your ultimate counselor!

GOODBYE YESTERDAY.

Is funny how time flies? the first month of the year is already going,but have you put your experiences of last year behind? Some people have this habit of dwelling so much on the past that they become almost 'blind' to the reality of what is happening at present.
The fact that you did not succeed in what you set out to achieved last year should not deter you from reaching out to achieve that same goal this year.As long as what you desire is good,it can be achieved.You may need to utilize different strategy,find out what went wrong and make corrections.
You also need to be patient and be positive in your thinking and outlook.Put the past behind you,embrace today with joy and pray for a better tomorrow.
Once again,wishing you a great and wonderful year ahead.Cheers!!!
