Carolyn Davidson was a graphic design student at Portland State University when Phil Knight, who was then teaching accounting part-time, asked her to create a logo for his fledgling shoe company.

She billed the project at $2 per hour and received a total of $35 for her work. The design she produced would eventually become the iconic Nike swoosh.

Twelve years later, in 1983, Knight invited Davidson to a company event and surprised her with a special gift: a gold ring featuring the swoosh logo set with a diamond, along with an envelope containing 500 shares of Nike stock.

Over time, those shares grew in value and are now worth millions of dollars.

Daddy Adeboye is still one of the most humble preachers of his ranking and stature in this world.

If Daddy Adeboye was Nigerian President, I am very sure things won’t be this terrible, we see His global leadership in Rccg, we see how He built redemption camp.

The man is a global institution of greatness!

I dare say he is the most influential Pentecostal pastor in the world too.

Rccg is a universe on its own and the man leads it with humility.

Daddy Adeboye once said you will not make heaven if you don’t pay tithes.

He later came to correct that publicly!

Publicly!

Many younger preachers won’t even dare do that!

The man said recently that GOD DOES NOT KILL!!

Same thing we have been saying for years in the christocentric community.

He said we should stop attributing death to God, he said Job was wrong, God doesn’t give and take away!

At his age!

Baba is over 80!!

Bro, humility na water!!

He responds to social media criticisms, he clears the air on our expectations of him around politics.

This is a man whose ministry houses governors, wife of president , senators etc

If the man chooses not to say a word, no one can do a thing, we will all rant online and that’s it.

The man chose to speak out of a fatherly responsibility to his flock!

Leave exegesis one side o brother mi, if you don’t learn anything from Daddy Adeboye’s humility, you are growing at all!

When Daddy lost his son and kept preaching through it, na that time I know say General nor be uniform o, na iyalaya training.

You know I will disagree till forever on doctrine but what I don’t ever do is close my eyes to the valuable virtues in other preachers.

May God keep and bless Daddy Adeboye!! @rccghq @PastorEAAdeboye

Hello Lola, I am a Muslim, and our spiritual tradition has a very deep approach to raising children. I want to share some tips from our scholars that will be beneficial to you regardless of your faith.

First of all, our theology teaches the concept of Fitrah. This means that every child is born with a pure heart. At six years old, she is not a criminal mastermind. She does not have a wicked soul.

If she doesn’t have all these, then what is happening? The truth is that she is just lacking impulse control and testing boundaries. By this, if you look at her as a manipulator, you will fight her. However, if you look at her as a pure soul making mistakes, you will be able to guide her.

Secondly, for every problem anyone faces today, it has been solved in history. The only problem is how to locate them.

A classical scholar named Al-Ghazali wrote about child psychology over 900 years ago in his famous book “Ihya Ulum al-Din.” In his section on disciplining children, he gave a practical rule I want you to adopt going forward.

He advised that parents should never push a child into a corner where they are forced to lie. When you ask a question you already know the answer to, her survival instinct kicks in. She cries and she lies to defend herself because she is scared of you. Stop interrogating her. Just look at her and state the fact. Say, I know you took this, and we are going to return it right now.

Again, another scholar and sociologist Ibn Khaldun addressed this exact behavior in his masterpiece titled: “Al-Muqaddimah.” He warned that when a child is raised with harsh punishment, they learn deceit, trickery, and lying to protect themselves. This is why she is covering her tracks and crying to manipulate you. The fear of a harsh reaction is making her a better liar.

Lola, do not attach a label to her. Do not ever call her a thief. If you attack her identity instead of her action, she will internalize it and grow into that dark label. Tell her the action is wrong but protect her dignity.

Make her return the item. Do not fall for the tears. Hold her hand, walk her back to wherever she took it from, and make her hand it back and apologize. The discomfort of returning a stolen item teaches a much better lesson than beating her will ever do.

Finally, I don’t know if you are a Muslim, but never underestimate the power of your own words. In our faith, we believe the prayer of a parent for a child goes straight to God without any barrier. Pray over her. Pray for her heart to be content and for her character to be straight.

Keep doing this consistently and the habit will break.

Allah knows best.

@YusufAsunmogejo I'm a Christian and I just followed you... The Bible talked about precept upon precept and it is clearly what I see in your explanation.

Thank you for helping Lola.

You ended it well by admonishing on the power of parental prayers 🙏 👏
