Lifestyle: Life Lessons That Can Make OR Mar You

 TOUGH LESSONS THAT MAKE OR MAR YOU!!!

Always cultivate the habit of solving problems

The sharp point of a nail was facing upwards, Kombo saw it and avoided it instead of removing it. He whispered to himself that it didn't concern him.


The next day, Kombo's new client wouldn't show up for the deal he was to sign with him. This deal meant everything for Kombo because it was worth millions. 


Kombo had already promised his mother a car, his siblings 50k each and made arrangements for a new apartment immediately this deal is signed.


But the client wouldn't show up. When Kombo called the client, he was in hospital attending to his only son who had stepped on the sharp point of a rusted nail. 


The son had stepped out of the car to buy something on the roadside when he stepped on the nail and incidentally it was the the nail that Kombo had refused to remove when he saw it dangerously positioned.


Kombo regretted not removing the nail because he thought it didn't concern him the moment he missed stepping on it.


He lost the deal and every benefit that would have come from it only because he didn't remove the nail from harming someone else.


We are all connected to one another. When one is hurt everyone else is hurt and when one is helped, everyone else is helped. 


When you see anything that'll pose a danger to another person, please remove it and if you see anything that'll be helpful to others, please promote it.


God bless you all.

Marriage Series 7: What Does The Bible Say About Divorce and Remarriage?

WHAT DOES THE BIBLE SAY ABOUT DIVORCE AND REMARRIAGE? First of all, no matter what view one takes on the issue of divorce, it is important to remember Malachi 2:16, “I hate divorce, says the LORD God of Israel.” According to the Bible, marriage is a lifetime commitment. “So they are no longer two, but one. Therefore what God has joined together, let man not separate” (Matthew 19:6). God realizes, though, that, since marriages involve two sinful human beings, divorces are going to occur. In the Old Testament, He laid down some laws in order to protect the rights of divorcées, especially women ( Deuteronomy 24:1–4).  Jesus pointed out that these laws were given because of the hardness of people’s hearts, not because such laws were God’s desire (Matthew 19:8). The controversy over whether divorce and remarriage is allowed according to the Bible revolves primarily around Jesus’ words in Matthew 5:32 and 19:9 . The phrase “ except for marital unfaithfulness” is the only thing in Script...
