“For better or worse” is not a blank check for bad behavior. Those vows are about enduring life’s hardships together, not becoming the hardship your spouse must endure!”-Derron Short

Your heroes will always disappoint you at some point, but it was always your mistake to idolize someone else, there’s no such thing as a flawless human being.

Honoring your parents will never be a burden; it is the greatest of privileges and a principle of blessing!

I hope I never forget that the people Jesus loved weren't always the people everybody else understood?

Gratitude is the antidote to the two emotions that mess up our lives the most: anger and fear.

[Dr. Arthur Brooks @arthurbrooks]

The happiest people I've met don't necessarily have the easiest lives or the most impressive accomplishments. But they tend to have four things in common:

-They take their faith or life philosophy seriously.
-They invest in their family relationships.
-They cultivate real friendships.
-They find meaning in work that creates value and serves others.

These are the four areas of life worth paying attention to if you want to live a more fulfilling life.

[Tony Robbins @TonyRobbins]

We don’t experience life. We experience the life we focus on.

Seven signs of spiritual maturity:

1. You repent quickly.
2. You forgive freely.
3. You receive correction humbly.
4. You pray before you panic.
5. You obey Scripture over your feelings.
6. You care more about holiness than appearances.
7. You want Christ to be glorified more than you want to be noticed.

Christian maturity is not measured by how much you know, but by how faithfully you walk with God.

You cannot expect other people to root for you before you root for you. People believe in people who believe in themselves. And the best way to look like you believe in yourself is to not need anyone to give you permission to do whatever the fuck you came here to do.

God is never nervous. He is never surprised. Never scrambling. Never reacting. Never wondering what happens next.

Kings rise because He permits it. Nations fall under His hand. History moves toward His appointed end.

"Our God is in the heavens; he does whatever he pleases." - Psalm 115:3

How did educated Nigerians, including much of our media, come to accept the term “bandits” for organised armed groups that massacre civilians, perpetrate mass rape, ambush military convoys, attack military aircraft, extort billions through ransom and illegal taxation, and seize, govern and violently defend territories for years?

I find this persistent mischaracterisation deeply disturbing, particularly from journalists, security analysts and public officials who should understand the gravity of the crimes they are describing.

At what point did sustained, organised violence against civilian populations, accompanied by territorial control and systematic intimidation, become something as casually described as “banditry”?

This is not a harmless semantic distinction. Language shapes public understanding, influences policy responses and determines how seriously society confronts atrocities. When we minimise the identity of perpetrators, we risk diminishing the enormity of their crimes and obscuring the experiences of their victims.

Nigeria's security crisis is grave enough without the intellectual dishonesty of sanitising terrorism through convenient vocabulary.

Call terrorism by its name. Call those who perpetrate it terrorists.

The biggest threat to Christianity isn't atheism. It's fake Christianity.

A gospel with no repentance.
A faith with no obedience.
A church with no truth.

If we were sitting together having coffee today, I would reach across the table, look you in the eyes, and say: God is writing a beautiful story for you. You can be at peace knowing He is doing more on your behalf behind the scenes than you could ever imagine. ❤️

One of the reasons so many average people stay poor is because they believe they are special. They believe their life is going to magically change because they're going to get a letter in the mail from magic school inviting them on an adventure.

The reality is, we get those letters every single day. They just look like risk and a shitload of work, with no guarantee of a payoff.

Men, if God has blessed you with a wife and children, He has entrusted you with a tremendous responsibility.

Love your wife sacrificially. Be faithful to her. Cherish her. Let her see Christlike love in how you speak to her, serve her, and treat her. (Eph. 5:25)

Your children need more than your provision. They need your presence, patience, instruction, discipline, and godly example. (Eph. 6:4)

Lead your family in prayer. Open the Bible with them. Make your home a place where God's Word is honored and obeyed. (Deut. 6:6-7)

When you sin against your wife or children, humble yourself. Confess it. Ask forgiveness. Show them what genuine repentance looks like.

Remember, your family sees the man you are when nobody else is watching. Be the husband who points his wife to Christ and the father who teaches his children to follow Him.

That is a legacy worth leaving.

[Scott Roberts @ScottRoberts]

Jesus said, "You will recognize them by their fruits." (Matthew 7:16)

You can claim to love Jesus, quote Scripture, attend church, and plaster Bible verses all over social media.

But if your life is marked by unrepentant sin, habitual lying, pride, hatred, and rebellion against God's Word, your profession of faith deserves serious examination.

A rotten tree cannot produce good fruit. (Matthew 7:18)

Your mouth may profess Christ while your life denies Him. (Titus 1:16)

And God is not fooled.

You don’t need to know it’s going to work to start, you just need to know it’s going to work better than doing nothing.

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

A lot of people want to see you fail to justify the risks they chose not to take.

Remove them from your life, ruthlessly.

[Alex Hormozi @AlexHormozi]

Everything is hard. Nothing works the first time. It all feels pointless. That’s when you realize you’re going to have to will it into existence with every ounce of your fucking soul. And that’s when it starts to happen.

[Kevin DeShazo @KevinDeShazo]

Practice complaining and you’ll be good at complaining.
Practice being negative and you’ll be good at being negative.

Practice gratitude and you’ll be good at being grateful.
Practice being positive and you’ll be good at being positive.

You get good at what you practice.
