JUST ONE EVIDENCE

If you are dark and handsome the world might tell you you dark and ugly. They will give you many reasons just to convince you that you are ugly. But remind yourself of one evidence, and that evidence is God. He fashioned you in a way so unique, and this uniqueness is strange to the world, hence call you ugly.


The truth will always be true regardless of people's opinions. The field is always during the rainy season green. But men may claim they never see any green grass on the field. But this does not negate the presence or the abundance of it. 

One day I was in the sitting room watching television. Then one of my younger ones started putting off all the lights in the house. Thereafter, he told his aunt didn't I tell you there's no light?
And that one replied thus, the television is still working. He wanted to prove to others that there was no light. But the television was the only evidence left, he could not off it because someone older than him was watching it. Yet, he insisted that there was no light. Though they were playing.
But that's exactly how men fight truth to mislead others that it doesn't exist. They can go to any length to prove that truth is false and false is true. 



They'll look for theories to buttress their points. However, this does not change the fact that the truth remains true. And if all evidence has been erased, one evidence will always be left unaltered. The evidence is God himself. 

A notable writer once says that men may go out and look up and claim the sky is not there. But the truth is that the sky is always there regardless of people's theories and proposition.

The truth is that people will still believe these people and follow in their footsteps. Most of these followers are ignorant. While only a few are not. 

And we can't blame them, the truth has been presented to them as false and vice versa. The reason for this pep talk is you. Yes, I mean you! You have been robbed of your true identity because of this error. You have been made to see yourself in another light. Imagine you are tall, and someone tries and proves to you that in the real sense you are short. You may live to believe you are not tall. 



But does this change the fact that you are tall? No. Because of one evidence. The one evidence here, will be, God created you a tall being and there's nothing whoever tells you you are short can do about it. They can't reduce your height, it is the work of God. 

Secondly, let's say you scored below average in an exam, and your teacher commented poor performance on your script. If you don't get rid of this in your mind, you may live believing you are a poor student. It takes renewing of the mind to let go of such derogatory comment from your mind. A lot of people have committed suicide because of such a comment. You are not poor. You are not a dullard. Yes, you scored below average, but this does not justify you being poor.


God has given you brain, make proper use of it and you'll realize that you ain't poor. 
Begin to see yourself in the light of what you really are. And not what people say you are. Don't even see yourself in the light of men's applause. Most times men applause are not sincere and can be a stumbling pebble. Beware!

The truth about yourself is in you. Your real you can only be found in you and nowhere else. Nobody knows you more than you. Never allow any derogatory statement or comment to make you live contrary to who you really are.

I am a Christian, and the way I see my original me is through the mirror of the word of God. You too can also do that.

MY LOCAL FRIEND

                                                               We started this series last week when we talked about ‘lessons from a game of football.’ The capsule overview of last week post is the fact that in a game of football they have a common goal, which is to win. And we established that if at all victory would be their friend then there is a need for them to work as a team. Here is a personal experience shared by a very good friend of mine: I have many friends both in my town and neighboring town. Some of them are educated while some are not. There was a time I went for a conference outside my town. I met new friends at the conference whose exposure transcend some of my friends at home. I needed to get their contacts but both my subscriber identity module (SIM) and phone storage were completely full. A thought c...

SEEDS

I remember when I started teaching as a side hustle. I didn't really take it serious. The first student I encountered,  just walk up to me for asistance, and I taught him at no cost. The last time I met him, he is already a graduate. After I graduated from the university I taught in one, two, three or four places. But those seeds I sowed then jokingly have become trees, I mean  big trees. Just last month I met two of my students in one of the reputable university in Nigeria; one is studying Chemical engineer and the other Computer science. Those were the one I taught between 2017 and 2018. Some of the students I taught between 2015 and 2016 had graduated from universities while some are in their final year. Some of my students are still in secondary schools and they are doing fine. I have students that are not in school but follow their passion either as singers, comedian, etc. and they are as well doing fine. Why am I telling you this? Is it for show, or perhap...

IT MATTER

IT MATTER! The topic to be discussed today is ‘it matter’, but the question is, what matters? Join me as we look into this deeply.  When I was in secondary school my Agricultural science teacher taught us then GERMINATION and the factor responsible for growth. Some of the factors are: viable seeds, moisture or water, nutrient (soil) and air (oxygen) When I meditatively considered these factors I realized that not even one out of them is un-important. If any of them isn’t available then the seed growth or germination is in jeopardy. Applying this into our lives’ journey as humans, it is evident that some factors also responsible for our own growth in every endeavors of life. Some take this serious while some others don’t.  When I say growth I do not mean increase in the number of age. Neither do I mean increase in stature. We grow in business, career, and ministry and so on. For us to grow in life we need to take these factors seriously. For instance the viabil...
