Isn't it strange by anonymous

Isn't it strange how N500 seem
like such a large amount when
we give it as offering, but such
a small amount when you go
shopping? Isn't it strange how
2hrs seem so long when you're
at place
of worship, and how short
they seem when you're
watching a good movie? Isn't it strange that you can't
find a word to say when
you're to make supplications
to God, but you have no
trouble thinking of what to
gist about with a friend? Isn't it strange how difficult
and boring it is to read one
chapter of the Scriptures, but
how easy it is to read 100
pages of a popular novel or
magazine? Isn't it strange how
everyone wants front-row-
ticke ts to concerts, film house or games,
but they do whatever is
possible to sit at the last row
in the holy gathering? Isn't it strange how everyone
wants a
place in Paradise, but they
don't want to
believe, do, or say anything to
get there? Isn't it strange how we send
jokes in e-mails,
BBM,whatsapp,
BC and they are forwarded
right away, but when we are
going to send messages about God, we think
about it
twice before we share it with
others? IT'S STRANGE ISN'T IT? Now that you've read this
message, forward it to
anybody that you consider a
friend. lets
beef up our spiritual life cos its
very necessary.. I believe this will
strengthen
more than a soul.

Converted but Unbroken Christians!

Converted but Unbroken Christians! These Christians are converted but they have refused to be broken of themselves to the Will of God! One example we have in the Bible is Jacob! Jacob always loved to do things His own way! Although, he was His covenant child, he still went on to deceive His brother and cheated him out of His right! Later in Jacob's life, God renamed him Israel, which means "he struggles with God." In fact, Jacob struggled with God his entire life, as many of us do. As he matured in faith, Jacob depended on God more and more. But the turning point for Jacob came after a dramatic, all-night wrestling match with God. In the end the Lord touched Jacob's hip and he was a broken man, but also a new man. From that day forward, Jacob was called Israel. And for the rest of his life he walked with a limp, demonstrating his dependence on the Lord. Jacob finally learned to give up control to God. Converted but unbroken Christians are workers of ...

Broken Pieces 3

It was Saturday, I was done with my chores, which were, fetching water from the well, sweeping the parlor and room. Lacing my boot before I head out to the field to play soccer. Dad’s phone began ringing. “Hello” “Yes, I be Nnamdi, wetin happen?” “Chineke!” “Ewo…. Ewo!” “Ogini?” Mum asked. “Dad what is it? I asked confused” “Jerry” “Sir” “Chigozie” “Sir” “Your Uncle and Aunty just get accident” “Ehh!!!... Chineke me! ……. Life is funny isn’t it? Yeah it is, he bluffed and smiled, as he tried leaning on the prison wall. But it became ridiculous, when he stumbled on the truth. Beverly Parents were dead and buried. The accident that took place was indeed fatal. Beverly Johnson had become an orphan, just in a twinkle. She began living with us. She had to adapt, for two years, when she’d be twenty years of age, to inherit her Father’s assets, it was willed so, and so it was. She was the only heir, and that left Dad and Mum too creepy. ...

Service by Ogri Mathilda Sarah

The world is familiar with word'' Service ''. I don't mean to talk about the gathering of a congregation for worship that is; church service. The service I'm talking about is that which means 'An act of being of assistance to someone.' it can also mean, 'The state of being subordinate to or employed by an individual or group'. Well today, I'd be talking about two kinds of Service. They are both spelt the same way but have a great disparity when looked at closely. What does it mean to serve? To serve means To have a given use or purpose; to function for something or to do something. Everyone born in to this world has a purpose, for you to have a purpose, you must be able to serve. So what does it mean to Serve? The response in your head might say to serve will mean to do what is needed to be done or play a function or role to someone or for something. But the truth is we get it wrong. There i...
