My Dreams

MY DREAMS One of the abilities that's being lost in this season is the ability to see greatness in yourself. We just want to live the passing days. No more inspiration for aspiration. We are clouded by the moment each moment. To think of the future you once always think of is now a once in a while. God, how did I get here. I've lost my taste to tasteless stuff. I no longer desire the food for the king, the scrumps is what I'm running after. When did I forget the unforgettable experience of my imaginary mind. My explosive mind has now gone on a sabbatically explosive leave. When will I wake up! My mind when will you wake up! I am a son not slave to forget where I'm coming from. How did I get here. Could it be adulthood? Abi, is it trying to meet up with the standards? Wait, could it be that, I no longer want my dream?! No! My dreams are all I wanted! They make me live each day like a King. They make me want to wake up every day! Where did I get lost?! God pl

Winning Your World

   WINNING YOUR WORLD If you ask me how easy it is to get lost in your world, I'd tell you, very simple and easy. But it doesn't just happen in a day, it happens in the process of time. Start from crawling up until walking, then getting your car and flying around the world. Getting lost in your world is still very possible. GROWING UP You'd agree with me if not by personal experience but through the happenings of life around us, we see parents trying to caution their young child from crawling or walking into a particular place even with the child's determination to do so. There's a desire in the heart of a child to accomplish but due to the parent’s sense of justice, that desire is not a good reason enough for that child to go there. With the overtime experiences, the child could be left with the notion that You Don't Always Get What You Desire Out Of Life, thereby losing in his world. And the most painful part is, the child grows only to impose or instill that

When It Doesn't Make Sense

When It Doesn't Make Sense I never for once wondered I'd get to a point in my life when I will ever think God has forsaken me. Well, maybe not expecting it to come that way and now. It was such an experience for me that I wouldn't like to experience ever again (smiles). The thought of 'Has God left me? Have I wandered so far from Him to the extent that He no longer cares about me or what? These thoughts and many more flooded my heart as I wept on my sick bed at Gboko, Benue State, after my 3weeks compulsory orientation camping program for youths that are ready and willing to serve Nigeria. To me, nothing was making sense. While thinking about why God allowed me to experience such pain, I started asking God some questions: have I done something terrible? What have I done to predispose me for this? Why has God abandoned me? But, after asking God these series of questions, I started pleading for God's mercy. Because nobody can win Him at Court. He is the Prosecutor and

The Gift Of Men

  THE GIFT OF MEN STORY SPEAKS A very long time ago, there existed two men; one who was rich and influential and the other who was poor. They both lived in a street with their houses adjacent to each other. The rich man was well known for his big businesses and Mansion but, he was never at any point in his life associated himself with other people especially, less privileged. The other man who was poor took serious the importance of relating with people and caring for them, though he was poor. Then came this very fearful day; the house of the rich man and the house of the poor man were on fire. These two men were not at home and to everyone’s surprise, people rushed down to the house of the poor man to safe his house from burning down completely, while the house of the rich man was left uncared for and was destroyed. Thank God there was no one in the rich man’s house at the time of the incidence. This taught him a great lesson that, it’s not enough to have all the money alone, the gift

The Best Gift

  The Best Gift So, I am always very happy when someone promises to give me a gift(s). It elevates me and leaves me looking forward to receiving that package. Though not all are substantial which could at times bring disappointment or sadness due to the investment of trust vested in the person making the promise. Different Kinds of Gifts There are different kinds of gifts which could be gifts of kindness, gifts of words, gifts of love, gifts of time, gifts of material things, gifts of relationship (friends and family), but not all receive a solid compliment especially when it is not given with a genuine heart. People make gifts to suit different occasions, however, no gift can suit the preciousness of a heart. In other words, a precious heart can not be bought with gifts, only that, it can change it. A quick notice here; is your heart precious to you, then don't sell it cheap! Because you may have to pay double to get it back. What's the best Gift and who gives it? Yes! The gre

The Last Man Standing

  THE LAST MAN STANDING "Life after school could be frightening....Yes, but it has to do with the level of your preparation". That is the summary of a short conversation I had with my mentor (P. Shine) few weeks ago. That then painted a scenario in my heart; when you have the idea of the fact that there is a lion on your path to a destination, you'd be prepared and won't be caught off guard.The struggle of life is never-ending and only those that know of it are ever ready.  Life's Raw Material  Life may/will not always give you what you wanted out of it, but what you make out of it is yours. Some will say, when life throws a lemon at you, make lemon juice. The truth is, if you refuse to make good use of life's raw materials, you may not eventually have a finished product, and then you will realize that, after all, YOU ARE THE LAST MAN STANDING! Whether on the good and great side or their other side. Who Will Remain Standing A very good friend of mine; Ifel'
