Oh, please hear me out. And I honestly hope people read this.
Feelings are in themselves fickle. They change. It’s why commitment cannot be anchored on feelings. It MUST be anchored on principles—shared principles.
When we talk about “Love” as it pertains to a relationship, it’s not a feeling. It cannot be a feeling. It HAS to be a deep sense of commitment, guided by principles. This is because it’s not every time you will be “happy” with your partner. It’s not everytime your relationship will be rosy cos life has different challenges. Arguments happen, misunderstandings happen (by the way, infidelity and abuse are
NOT misunderstandings! Let me clear that one!).
Hence, what keeps the sacredness of that commitment in moments of arguments, quarrels and displeasure are the principles guiding that commitment and how strictly they are adhered to.
People can go from lovebirds to arch-enemies when principles of trust, consideration, mutual respect, communication and fidelity are broken.
Emotions don’t keep commitment. Disciplined adherence to principles do.
In fact, in divorce conversations, you will hear people still say “I care for her/him but I know I cannot continue the relationship”.
Principles keep commitment, not emotions.
My professor used to say, ‘Everything is hard until it’s not.’ I didn’t understand it back then, but I understand it now. The beginning is always the hardest part, but with consistency, the difficulty gradually loses its grip.
This is for someone battling crippling fear and anxiety about the future. Learn to be a child before God again. Your many permutations and combinations are not stronger than his wisdom. He loves and cares for you deeply. Trust him🫂❤️🥺.
As an adult, you're going to get the urge to return to hobbies, like reading, that you used to enjoy as a kid... it is very important that you do so, and start doing things that bring you joy again.
recently it’s been hitting me hard how aggressively attentive & pursuitful u gotta be to your life preferences. otherwise years can just slip by unnoticed
The world is designed to take you away from God. So things like your prayer time, bible reading time & quiet time become increasingly difficult to maintain. Build systems and routines that force you to spend time with God, build time in your schedule to pray with God. It worth it
I need more Christian women to understand that what completes them is BEING IN CHRIST, not marriage or anything other thing
You are a whole and complete person in Christ, every other thing should be an addition
Companies arresting users for complaining is never going to be right, it doesn’t matter if the complain is right or wrong. However it’s a different case if someone was arrested due to a coordinated social media attack. I’ve been searching for the tweet that caused the arrest but got nothing.
Companies are managed by human beings too, they have a team and staff that depends on them, and when you attack someone’s source of livelyhood without a justification, you shouldn’t complain if they report you to the law.
There was a court case today that @DailyPostNGR covered, it mentioned that two people where arrested and the report was that, a brainjotter account with 1.4M followers (parody) specifically made a post a while back, promising 500k to people if they can comment “Moniepoint scandal” Several posts went out like this. The account has now been deactivated too.
This account owner was arrested and the person behind the account explained that they he got paid by someone else ( the second person that was arrested ) which led to the second arrest. The real sponsor is yet to be named but it is what it is.
When people make posts that can cause panic among users especially when it has to do with money, they don’t see how the ripple effect happens, these posts get into WhatsApp groups, and and people broadcast it without knowing and before you know it, everyone is withdrawing their money from a bank without even knowing why.
Companies need to always address issues like these as early as possible, I get the whole going to court thing but sometimes, it’s good to quickly explain the real cause of issues to your users also to avoid misinformation spreading faster than the actual facts.
Goodluck to everyone involved.
I don't know who needs to hear this, but GET UP. Ask God to breathe His spirit back into you. You've been lying dormant for far too long. Ask Him to restore your creativity, your purpose, your joy, your love, your health, and your sound mind. You've slept long enough in depression, anxiety, overthinking, bitterness, loneliness, grief, brokenness, financial stress, abandonment wounds, relationship trauma, and destructive habits. Today is the last day. GET UP! Get up for your future self. Get up for your kids. Get up for the dreams God placed inside you. Get up and take your life back.
your errors are within the bounds of His sovereignty. don’t die of guilt. it’s okay. we all make mistakes, and in retrospect, think we could have handled certain situations differently.
The Holy Spirit is not only for speaking in tongues. He should help you bridle your tongue, work on your character, soften your heart, and humble you enough to apologize when you’re wrong. The work of the Holy Spirit in your life should start from within💛

Your entire life will change the day you realize discipline is the highest form of self-respect. It’s choosing what you want most over what you want now. It’s keeping your word. It’s an act of service to your future self.
