WHY ARE WE NOT PRACTISING THE SAME RELIGION?

Foluso and Quadri  have been dating for seven years. They did not consider their backgrounds, all they wanted was to be joined as man and wife. Eventually they did, their sweet love became bitter. Usman wanted  his children to practise Islam, while Foluso wanted Christianity. They dragged this for years until Foluso couldn’t take it anymore, she moved out. The once upon a time love song ended with a dirge .

WHY GIVE UP ?

I have a good friend who jumps from idea to idea trying to become a millionaire. He wants the fastest path to riches. He gets all excited about his latest idea but as soon as it becomes work, he stops, and looks for “a better way”. This is a sure-fire way to fail… You have to constantly water your seeds! You have to prepare and work your fields for the seeds to take, to grow strong roots, and produce crops. You can’t just go around scattering seeds hoping something will grow. Farmers don’t operate businesses that way, why would you expect your finances or business ideas to work any differently. I have heard that to become “an overnight success” it takes at least two years! You grind it out, put blood, sweat, and tears in to it, and then just maybe it may lead to something worthwhile. But quitting? It’s not an option! Too often people quit right before their big break was about to take place. They miss the blessings God had in store. Wars are exhausting — especially long ones. That’s why you are often tired. Most soldiers who experience the fierceness of combat want to get out of it. That’s why you feel urges to escape or surrender. That’s why there are times you’re tempted to give up. 

NEED TO SLAP MY BOSS

I have worked at my place of employment for just over a year and a half, and my boss is ....... well I wouldn't want even anyone that has wronged me to work with this person. I have been called stupid, retarded and incompetent, I have been belittled and disrespected in front of other employees. Now, I'm not saying that I'm the smartest person but i don't believe anyone deserves to be treated this way.

JOINT ACCOUNT ROCKS ............

Love is blind, especially when it comes to finance. However, money has always been a discipline that requires both eyes wide open. Many couples who are more caught up in the throes of their new relationship than in planning realistically for their future open joint accounts, only to find out later that they have put themselves in a disadvantageous situation. And contrary to popular belief, relationships do not have to sour for a joint account to be a bad idea, although, of course, the joint account does make breaking up even harder to do.

IS ORAL SEX A SIN ?

“My partner and I love the Lord with all our hearts and we don't want to do anything to sin against Him. Our question is in the area of oral sex. Is it scripturally wrong? Some have tried to make a biblical issue out of what parts of the body a married couple can and cannot kiss. In their minds, there is only one biblical form of sexual expression in marriage, sexual intercourse. They attempt to defend their viewpoint on biblical grounds—trying to make it into a holiness issue. However, is there anywhere in the Scripture putting such limits on the sexual relationship?  It is important to remember that God created sex to be a beautiful expression of love. When the husband or the wife does not feel that sex is a "beautiful expression of love," then changes need to be made in that couple's sex life. Evidentially, the actions are not mutually beneficial to each person. Nothing in the Bible says that oral sex is a sin; however it may not be appropriate for every couple. I AM YET TO FIND IT ANYWAY.

TRUTH HURTS, LIES HURT .................

Have you ever watched the early auditions on American Idol? I know, Painful! It begs the question, why didn’t any family or friends tell those poor souls that they can’t sing!? Why must Simon be the one to break the news?

Have you ever found yourself in a situation where your boss is obviously not saying the truth and you dare not say what you know?

How about in your marriage? Are you totally honest with your spouse? Your expenditures, your past, your current extra-curricular activities. Why does it seem that we have so many secrets?

Would anyone want to hear?

·         You are not as attractive as you used to be.

·         I sometimes think about someone else during sex.

·         I sometimes wonder why we are together.

·         I have a little crush on someone at work.

WHY AM I STILL SINGLE ?

It is the number one question that singles get asked, especially if you are over the age of 30: why are you still single? It has many variations, sometimes phrased as a comment, rather than a question – “I can’t believe a nice girl/guy like you is still single,” followed by the more direct and probing: “When do you think you’ll get married? “As mature singles, we ask the exact same question –but not to each other. Rather, we ask ourselves in times of loneliness or frustration: “Why am I still single?”
