5G & Conspiracies

“ History merely repeats itself. It has all been done before. Nothing under the sun is truly new.” - Ecc 1:9 (NLT) History is a very powerful teacher, for those who are humble enough to subject themselves to its lessons.  One thing I have found is that the efficacy of the word of God remains the same; as Ecc 1:9 says, history repeats itself and NOTHING is new under the sun. I also discovered that every time there has been a major global disaster, there has also been a major global conspiracy.  Yes, we are closer to the coming of Christ, as we are closer to our graves each day, but not every disaster is a vehicle in which our Christ will come. If you must spiritualize COVID-19 and this global lockdown, here’s how: 1. Be humble; to accept the lessons that this is teaching us all  2. Inquire; why secularism has mixed with spiritualism. Why the church has become so integrated with the world. Thus, whatever affects the world, impacts the church.   3. Look ...

Google Vocab

"There are no uninteresting things, only uninterested people" G.K. Chesterton The world present predicament predisposes everyone to a state of boredom. Conversely, human beings are relational beings. That's why one of the greatest punishments you can mete on anyone is solitary confinement. The individual can be bored to stupor. Is life not a thousand times too short for us to bore ourselves? Howbeit, as we try to stay afloat of the #covid19 pandemic and its downturn, we need mental energizing activities to cheer us and lighten up our day. One of these is the #GoogleWordCoach game. Do you seek to catch fun? How about developing your vocabulary? Then this is for you. Vocabulary wise, an umpteen number of youths are very shallow. This is distasteful. Their repertoire of words is not any better than that of an elementary school pupil. While your vocabulary repository will afford you an array of words to pick from, it also helps you ace grammar tests or exams. It is ...

Fear

Image
In times like these, the only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Aristotle opined, "fear is pain arising from the anticipation of evil". People are ignorantly becoming fear mongers in the guise of getting others informed. If you find yourself relishing in pervading death toll and sad news, please quarantine your mind, because you are subtly making living impossible. Be wise! We should know only when we are no longer afraid do we begin to live. Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. What the mind doesn't understand, it fears. So now is the time to understand more so that we may fear less. And know that fear sells until you stop buying it. Meaning that what you fear will come upon you, if you see Job ask him. Don't be engrossed in giving ears to what will dampen your spirit, get obsessed with invigorating exercises that will enliven your day. Albeit, I'm not insinuating disseminating information is bad, lest Satan should get the adva...

Love Amidst

Image
It is said that our deepest emotional need is the need to feel loved. When we feel unloved we struggle just to survive. Love has power. It heals. Quintessential of love's healing power is seen in Rob's story, who had a terrible accident that he wasn't sure he would be able to walk again. When asked what enabled him to come through that horrible experience, his answer was simple: “Love,” he said. “That’s the only way I could have made it". You'll be inundated to know that we may inadvertently lessen the chance of survival of some Covid-19 patients (I pray not), not because of the virulent of the virus but just because of feeling unloved. I am aware that stigmatization, contempt, and ill-treatment have been raising their ugly heads, even by some health officials on the front line.  I've also read a plethora of malediction hurled at the country's arch-enemy politicians who tested positive for Covid-19. The truth is wishing them dead may not even brin...
