TURNING POINTS OF LIFE
I was pondering over which message to give my readers this month but nothing was coming to mind. So I decided to let this month go by hoping to peradventure get a message for my readers next month but something unexpectedly happened to me. I was charging the battery of my phone with a universal charger when it suddenly exploded. The battery got destroyed with the universal charger so my phone is useless now. But few hours before the incident my phone was functioning correctly. This is an example of turning point. Now what do I mean by turning point of Life?
Life is like a game of soccer. When the team you support is leading, things seem to be going on well for you and you don’t expect the team you support to lose the game. But when there is sudden turnaround of event and the opposing team equalises and takes the lead and the game ends. There is also a corresponding turnaround of physical and emotional state of being. This brings sadness to the one whose team took the lead first and happiness to the one who support the opposing team. So it is in life. Sometimes things seem to be going on well with you in life and you don’t expect any misfortune to come your way. But things suddenly go wrong resulting in a turnaround in your physical and emotional state of being. You become sad and perplexed, not knowing what to do.
As a motivator and counsellor, I will urge you to put what happened behind you and think of what is ahead of you. What do I mean? Let say you wrote an exam made of five papers and you failed four and passed one or a beloved one passed away or you lost a precious item or lost a position and so on. If you cry the whole day it will not make things right. If you sleep the whole day it will not make things right. If you drink alcohol the whole day it will still not make things right and so on. So the best thing is to put it behind you and move on because when you remain there you sit on your success. I know it is not easy and it is so painful but you still have to try and put it behind you. Sometimes you try and it doesn’t work but you have to keep on trying and with time you will be able to put it behind you. Always learn from the past and put it behind you. Thinking of what is ahead of you comes into play when you go back to the drawing board and start all over again. As you starting, you pray to your creator to see you through and strengthen you as you make the move.
Sometimes, it is the other way round that is things seem not to be going on well for you and there is sudden turn around and things start going on well for you. A sudden strong feeling of joy occupies your physical and emotional states of being.
At that climax, as a motivator and counsellor I will urge you to give thanks to your creator.
Finally these turning points in life make us matured and experienced in life so is not all about sadness. Also never feel you are the only one going through this turning point of life because we are all going through it.
A coffin maker prays to his or her creator for his or her coffin to be bought but that can only happen when someone dies. A drug seller prays to his or her creator for his or her drug to be bought but that can only happen when someone falls sick.
In a nut shell, turning points of life are inevitable but remember your creator is always with you and will always see you true, so don’t give up on life because of these turning points, because if you are not dead you don’t know what you will get!!!!!!!

TO THE CHRISTIANS
TO THE CHRISTIANS
First of all, happy valentine’s day to all my readers and followers. Wondering what I’m doing here on Valentine’s Day, guess what I have a nice Valentine’s Day special present for you and I’ve entitled it “To The Christians”. Before you read, start to ponder on the title for some few seconds. Now I believe you are done so let’s zoom into action. Before I say anything let’s read something on what the scripture says about eternal life. 1John 5:13 says “These things I have written to you who believe in the name of the Son of God that you may know that you have eternal life” Amen. Also John 5:24 says “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who hears my word and believes in him that sent me has everlasting life and shall not come into judgement but has passed from death into life” Amen.
Most Christians of today, tend to doubt their chances of going to heaven. Also ignorance of eternal life is making some also doubt their chances of going to heaven. Others also look at themselves and think they are not qualified. But the more you look at yourself the more you see faults which make you feel uneasy. But this shouldn’t be so.
As a motivator and counsellor, I will say as long as you’ve accepted Jesus Christ as your personal saviour, baptized, having the Holy Spirit within you, and leading a righteous life, you shouldn’t doubt this chance of going to heaven. We all make mistakes but one or two mistakes should not let you doubt this chance. What do I mean by this? You fornicated and so what? You practiced homosexualism and so what? You masturbated and so what? You practiced lesbianism and so what? You watched pornography and so what? You kissed someone and so what? You stole and so what? You gossiped and so what? Many other mistakes which I can’t list all. Is this the reason you are not going to church anymore? Is this the reason you hide at the back during prayer meetings? Is this the reason you don’t have your quiet time anymore?
When you make a mistake, accept it, correct it and keep on pressing towards the goal. How? Get on your knees, pray to God to strengthen you and increase the concentration of the Holy Spirit within you. Grant you self control and join you as you get back into the race. There will always be criticisms from friends, neighbours, course mates, roommates, fellow church members, family members etc but that should not weigh you down. Instead just welcome them, say thank you, and continue pressing towards the goal.
Conversely, this should not be an opportunity for us to continually and willingly sin with the intention of still having eternal life and still in the race. We will lose this eternal life and get kicked out of the race if we continually and willingly sin. The scriptures confirms this in Hebrews 6:4-6 which says “For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have tasted the heavenly gift, and have become partakers of the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the good word of God and the powers of the age to come, if they fall away, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the son of God and put him to an open shame” Amen. As a motivator and counsellor, I believe self control and the increased concentration of the Holy Spirit within you will help you continue in this race of pressing towards the goal.
Remember, God is not a man to go back on his promise. Whatever he says, that he does. So what the problem and why are you looking down on yourself? Rise up, shake the problem and doubt off and get back into the race of pressing towards the goal.
And as you are in the race, remember you are always the head and not the tail. Time up, got to continue the race, so see you in heaven!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RELATIONSHIP
RELATIONSHIP
Although I’ve never been in a relationship before, but I’ve mingled, and still single because I don’t want to entangle myself into what I can’t disentangle myself from. My knowledge on relationship is from a whole lot of sources which time will not permit me to acknowledge all of them.
Before you get into a relationship, you start to ponder over the reasons for getting into it, wonder about what goes into it and yonder about it.
Some go into relationship for only sex but relationship is not all about sex. As a result, some end up being ditched. Others are also ditched for other reasons. But when you are ditched, you don’t have to be sad, sit all alone and feel bad. Don’t think there is no hope and all is lost. Do you know how beautiful or handsome you are? The spirit of your creator leaves and dwells in you. All over the world, no one looks like you. You can put a smile on your face. Your creator watches you and his eyes are like a sparrow. Your creator knows all the pain you’ve being going through. Do you know you are the apple of his eyes? Take a look inside of you. Take your time at what you see. Isn’t it is so beautiful? Look at how beautiful or handsome your creator made you. Look at the beauty of his works.Come on,cheer up!!
The foundation of a good relationship is good communication,quality time and sacrifice.What do i mean by sacrifice,sometimes you have to give up on certain things you cherished so much for your partner to enjoy the relationship. This brings about understanding and chemistry in the relationship. Good communication generally means knowing what is going on with each other. Quality time basically means having time for each other at yonder from everything which will promote some privacy and heart to heart talk.
The chemistry comes in the feeling of belongingness. That is feeling some kind emptiness in the absence of one another.
But as to the multi-billion dollar question, that is “IS IT GOOD TO ENTER INTO A RELATIONSHIP DURING YOUR EDUCATIONAL CYCLE?”
As a motivator and counsellor I will say; to everything there is a season and a time. Your creator’s time is the best!!!!!!!!!

SITUATIONS OF LIFE
SITUATIONS OF LIFE
As one is sick, the other is as fit as a fiddle. As one is weeping, the other is jubilating. As one is brought forth, the other is buried. As one is satisfied, the other is hungry. As one is happy, the other is sad. As one passed, the other failed. As one is playing, the other is learning. As one is rich, the other is poor. As one is building, other’s is being dismantled. As one won, the other lost. As one is weeding in a sunny day for daily bread, the other is sitting in a luxurious office for daily bread. As one has many children, the other is barren. As one is travelling by bus, the other is travelling by foot. As one is handicapped, the other is having all body parts. All these situations do happen at the same time. That is, as one is in a situation, the other is also facing another situation at the same point in time.
The situations are so many that time will not permit me to elaborate on all of them.
But this is what I have to say. It is not our creator’s intention that bad things befall us but sometimes it is as a result of the choices we make in life. Remember, what you sow is what you reap. It could also be natural circumstances which are beyond our control.
But as a counsellor and motivator, I will urge you to give thanks to your creator in whatsoever situation you find yourself. Don’t let the situation be a stumbling block but keep on pressing towards the goal. Therefore laying aside every weight let us look unto our creator the author and finisher of our faith. Also remember all things work together for our good, to them that love their creator and to them that are called according to his purpose. Never let any situation belittles you but rather belittle the situation. Also remember life is how you make it so if you let any situation belittles you, your life will also be belittled. Learn to do your best in every situation you find yourself. Also cultivate the habit of always being happy because getting yourself worried always doesn’t add a dime to your life but rather affect your health.
Always aspire to acquire the desire you admire. Don’t retire even when people conspire because you have a creator who will make their plans expire. If you misfire, never retire because your creator will lift you higher. Keep on pressing towards the goal and you will reach higher.
No matter the situation, remember your creator is always with you and will never leave you. Cheer up and give thanks to your creator for his everlasting love!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

MOTHERS
MOTHERS
A mother is the brain behind a child’s success. A mother’s love is one of the greatest treasures one can ever have. Being a mother is a great experience but the responsibilities that come with it are enormous. A child with good character is as a result of a good mother. To be a mother is not an easy thing. Carrying a baby inside her womb for nine month is a herculean task. Moreover the breastfeeding of a child is another task but through all this the mother does not hesitate. Aren't they special? Let’s give honor to whom honor is due. Thumbs up for our mothers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
