Self-positivity

 Proverbs  27:2 "Let another man praise thee, and not thine own mouth; a stranger, and not thine own lips"

The greatest criticism of you if there be any should come from you, the greatest praise of you should come from others; and not vice versa. The above scripture alludes to that. Never allow another man the right to pass the slightest inhumane remarks about you in any way, even your mistakes are your mistakes not their's, so no one is qualified enough to pass a"judgement" against you. This was the reason behind Jesus' response in John8:7. No matter how grave your past errors or "seeming present challenges" are,  only two people have the right to criticize or judge you(i.e God & You), and God won't criticize/judge you, He's your ever present Help(Ps46:1), don't criticize or judge yourself either because you need all the strength you can muster for your journey(Pro17:22). Stay in charge of your emotions. I believe this is why ladies who feel bodyshamed feel the need sometimes to bleach or use excessive make-up just to look "beautiful",come to think of it, every lady is actually beautiful, beauty comes in self-confidence and personal carriage, delight in your skin tone, you are beautiful just the way you are.🙂. Stay in charge of your state of mind, no one is qualified to qualify you by their opinions. Shout I'm in charge! Have a glorious day!!!🙂

Apostle Peter- Running 1

A blend of Bible stories, revelations and fiction (literature license) about Peter's life and somewhat complex choices and decisions. Sit back, relax, cappuccino and enjoy! And Peter was running again, away from the persecution that had once again broken out against the Church. Jesus had been long gone. He missed Him. He still had nostalgia and goose bumps whenever he remembered just how divine Jesus was. He had seen Jesus do a lot of amazing miracles but none quite like the last one- he and his other folks, some 50 of them watched as Jesus levitated into the heavens until no physical eyes could see him again. He said He was going to heaven and of course that was true- Peter knew now by deep conviction that he'd walked with God Himself. And for some reason he thought himself a friend of God. He knew he was going to see Jesus again sometime soon. There was no debate in his heart about this. He loved Jesus or perhaps God- they were one and the same persons to him now. He

#perfectlovechallenge

Wow! While studying the Bible yesterday I was presented a challenge by God and had to get the PLB team involved asap. Check out the Scripture below. 1 John 4:18 There is no fear in love; but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment. He that feareth is not made perfect in love. Did you see that word? The one most of us dread and consider totally impractical is featured in this Scripture... right there as the 8th and 23rd words 😃. But really do you think it is really possible to practise "perfect" love? Pls comment below and let the world know! I know the word "PERFECT" scares the crap outta people but when God says "perfect" is possible then it means we are entirely fashioned within and without to do it. There's absolutely no reservation in this Scripture as regards whether or not it is possible to be "perfect" in love in this transient world! I think it's safe to say that it is possible to be perfect (fully mat

Going on to know Him

People easily judge other people when they don't know them. We all may be guilty of this. A Lotta times, we stereotype people by how they look, their dressing and outward mannerisms ever before we hear them speak. I have been shocked many times of how guilty I've been with this. The most recent of such a person I nearly badly stereotyped turned out to be such an incredible person, so different and special in her way and she helped me in many beautiful ways such that we became pretty cool friends in the space of just a few months but this was the same lady I almost thought was way away from my type of friends. We've all made such mistakes so don't look at me that way😶😇. When we were done with the project that brought us together, I offered to take us to an icecream spot- it would probably be the last time we were seeing so it was my way of saying "thanks". There I told her how I had felt about her when I first saw her and she was somewhat unsurprised and sa
