I hate that every time I suit up as a Green Lantern, instead of getting called "hero" or "man of the people", I start hearing abominations like "corper", "corper wee", and "omo ijoba".
I spent 47 days as one of several thousand African migrants seeking to enter Europe through the Sahara Desert and the Mediterranean Sea.
Story on @fijnigeria tomorrow, Thursday and on Friday.
@ahmadmmijinyawa@_FreshAA Same with me, fear of bandits is the reason I stayed the night sabi da camp din yana kauye me nisa, didn't sleep for the entire night da sassafe na kama hanya
I heard someone say, satan got adam and eve to fix their eyes on one tree when god had already given them an entire garden, think about that. The enemy didn't have to convince them that they had nothing. He just had to make them forget everything that they already had. And he still, till this day, uses the same strategy. He gets us to focus on relationships we don't have, the job that we don't have, the opportunity we don't have, the healing we haven't seen yet. Meanwhile, we are blind to the countless prayers god has already answered. Gratitude isn't pretending you don't want more, it's refusing to let what you don't have make you forget the goodness of god that's already surrounding you.
We need love, kindness and care to get through that tough week, the grey skies and storm clouds in life. For the times when things go wrong, when we feel lost, when everyone else appears to be doing well, know that the Almighty hasn’t abandoned us. He knows.
