Keep On Keeping On!

Life they say is not a bed of roses, even if it were, roses have thorns.

Life is in phases and men are in sizes. Never compare yourself with anyone no matter what.

Just know that you can't throw in the towel now, you just can't give up no matter the challenge that you are facing currently.

There is always a bright side. Even is there is none, create one for yourself and for others around you or anyone you know who is presently going through challenges.

As I write to you, I also have challenge, there are different issues yet to be sorted out in my life but I chosen not to be deterred.

I told myself this morning that I am tired of crying over issues, I am tired of being dejected because certain things are not working the way I thought they ought to have and then I remind myself of you and all that you go through and are going through.

I want you to quit pitying yourself and crying foul. You just can't give up now. You have to keep on keeping on.

Have you been disappointed? try again. Have your heart been broken? love again. Have you fallen? rise again.

No matter what you go through, no matter how challenging and complicated things may seem, do not give up, keep on keeping on because you are the reason I am here.

Lots of Love,

Labour To Be A Blessing!

You never know dryness if your drive is to be a blessing.

Living above your means is the cheapest way to frustrate your destiny.

Labour to be a blessing in your relationship. Be a source of joy, a source of peace of mind,  a source of success and rest.

Your certificate does not guarantee success in your relationship or love life it is your conscious commitment to purpose.

You are too loaded to live a worthless life. Introduce a new dimension of commitment to your relationship,  a commitment to labour to be a blessing to your partner.

Every accomplishment in life is a product of commitment in time. Consciously put in your time to be a blessing in your relationship that when you speak,  life comes out.

You are woman of virtue don't watch your life loose value.
As you make contribution of being a blessing to your partner and lover,  you shall eat the good fruit.

I celebrate you.
Lots of luv.

Over And Over Again!

For how long will you continue to hurt him over and over again?

For how long will your partner shed secret tears in frustration over and over again because of the pain you cause.

Love is beautiful, love is kind,  love is divine but over and over again you have defiled love.

The choices we make at every stage of life goes a long way to shape us. The seed you sow today will germinate tomorrow and bear fruit. What type of fruit will yours bear?

Make a conscious effort to be a source of joy, inspiration, and a blessing to your relationship over and over again.

Let your partner look at you and find inner joy. Let your partner steal a glance at you just to be sure that you are real because of the way you have been a blessing over and over again.

I celebrate you.

Lots of Luv,
~Oma

One Thing Is Needful!

"But one thing is needful: and Mary hath chosen that good part,  which shall not be taken away from her." ~Luke 10:42 [KJV].

"There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it and it will not be taken away from her. " [NLT]

The first translation say ...But one thing is needful. . ., the second says . . . There is only one thing worth being concerned about. . .

 What is that one thing that is needful for you right now? What is that one thing that is worth your being concerned about?

It is time to set your priorities right before it's too late.

That relationship that you are in,  is it needful? Is it worth your being concerned about? Check yourself before you wreck yourself.

Lots of Luv.

Factually Speaking!

I am tough, I am diplomatic, I am sweet, I am loyal, I am kind but at the same time, I am logical.

Sitting here alone, thinking of trends I have seen and walked through, it becomes imperative to share my opinion on the subject matter.
I live a life filled with new experiences and testimonies and through it all, I have learnt a lot and grown a lot more. I take risks and do the unexpected, above all, I believe in divinity.

Young ladies, there is no way you can get married to a man that you are intellectually higher than, especially, if he has insecurity issues from birth, and expect it to work.

I will like to advice young ladies, if you are a University or a College graduate, don't ever consider marrying a person without a WAEC result. It is always easier and better if the man has a better or higher academic qualification than the woman.

Yes! there are exceptions to every rule, though this is not a rule, I know of some couples it has worked for but take time to find out, you will notice that the woman in question is on the 'passive' side.

If you have an active persona` as a woman, and you have an academic qualification higher than that of the man who has asked for your hand in marriage, Sister, you need to do a re-think. Because, there will come a time when even prayer cannot save the day because you will be reasoning `A`, he will be reasoning `Q` and before you know it, the oil has spilled and there is no way to gather it back again. Think!

 May the Lord God Almighty, through His eternal Spirit, grant us understanding in the things of this Life. Amen!

Lots of Luv

I Am A Woman; HolySpirit Help Me!

Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies (Prov. 31:10)

I know that being a woman is a very wonderful place coupled with its attendant responsibility and challenges. Nevertheless, more is expected of us.

Being a woman is not a task you can handle on your own, we need the help of the HolySpirit especially the "Married Woman" because so much more is expected of you.
In other to help your own self, you need to cheerfully and joyfully accept your role as a woman because you are a daughter, a sister, a wife and a mother.
Each of this role is distinct and cumbersome because you never graduate from any of them till eternity.

Being a woman is beautiful, so, do not give up.

Always remember that you are the one that makes the house a home. Whether you like it or not, you are the one that plans for the future of the family, it is in your hands whether the family succeeds or not.
As a woman, do your best especially new mothers, have savings in your child(ren) name. Open a Child Account different from yours and the family joint account and begin saving in it no matter how little, till that child is of age to access the fund, you will be glad you did because your child(ren) shall arise and call you blessed someday because of it.

For the married woman, you need to arise and prayer-cover your family especially your husband. His decisions have to be in tandem with the will of God, His plans and purpose for your union.
YOU HAVE TO STOP EATING FROM BOTH SIDES OF THE MOUTH.
Refuse to be a sit-down look, refuse to allow your husband's friends, P.A or Secretary to determine how your family finance or day to day activity is run.

Being a virtuous woman does not mean that you should be dumb.
For those who have a hard time knowing their husbands' financial calendar or probably you don't even know how much he earns as salary, sincerely, you are in trouble because you both are supposed to plan as a family especially for the sake of the children.

Going forward, go on your knees in prayer, ask the HolySpirit for help.
Nagging your man, cursing him in the private and in the open is a NO, NO. Rather, bless him, speak life and blessings to his being continuously and let this be your prayer always; I Am A Woman, HolySpirit Help Me!

I Love You,
~Oma

After All The No Nonsense!

In the discharge of one of my duties today, as I approached the waiting room, I saw a sad old man, he needed help in order to fill a particular form so as to claim some benefits accrued to him as a result of his service to the fatherland.

I went and sat down in one of the seats available. I opened my bag to take out one of the books I was reading so as to continue from where I stopped, as I looked up, this sad old man was standing beside me and almost pleading with me to allow him seat, I was shocked and I shifted for him with a smile as I urged him to seat beside me.

He handed his form to me, it was strange though but I took it from him and read through it, after which I asked him to go and submit, he said to me, ''
my daughter, I can't", on further enquiry I found out that he needed One document, which wasn't compulsory, for his submission to be accepted but the man-in-charge had insisted he brings it and the document is far away in the village, the old man was tired.

Some twenty years ago, this same old man prevented the man-in-charge today from entering the university of his choice just because during clearance, he didn't come with the original of his certificate of origin, the old man today used to be known as "Mr No Nonesense", today, the table has turned, Mr No nonsense is now old and dependent .

Men and Brethren, after all the "No Nonsense", remember there is a 'tomorrow' when you will need someone's help.

In whatever position that you find yourself today, try as much as you can to ease people's burden, make life as stress free as possible with your position because after all the no nonsense, you never know where we will need one another.

Lots of Love,
~Oma.
