🔨 THE STORY OF A 🔨 🔨WOOD CUTTER 🔨 Once upon a time, a very strong woodcutter asked for a job in a timber merchant and he got it. _____ The pay was really good and so was the work condition. For those reasons, the woodcutter was determined to do his best. His boss gave him an axe and showed him the area where he supposed to work.The first day, the woodcutter brought 18 trees. ______ “Congratulations,” the boss said. “Go on that way! _____ ”Very motivated by the boss words, the woodcutter tried harder the next day, but he could only bring 15 trees. ____ The third day he tried even harder, but he could only bring 10 trees. ____ Day after day he was bringing less and less trees. ____ “I must be losing my strength”, the woodcutter thought. ____ He went to the boss and apologized, saying that he could not understand what was going on. ____ “When was the last time you sharpened your axe?” the boss...

Please come o, what could have made this young man to want to sell himself? I met him at the motor park in Nyanya Abuja, on my way to work. He was so serious to want to sell himself. What has led him to this decision?  I tried asking him, he told me of the frustrations and the helplessness he's daily facing. You may wish to contact me to contact him, (lol). olalekansam.wordpress.com

On Constitutional amendment and NASS affront on the Supreme Court: The news that the National Assembly is bent on going ahead to override the veto of Mr. President on the fourth alteration Act in disregard to an order of status quo made by the Supreme Court, if true, is to say the least unhealthy for our Democracy. A number of lame arguments have been presented to justify this anathema. First, the widely bought argument that the apex court lacks jurisdiction on the case overlooks the provisions of the Supreme Court (Additional Original Jurisdiction) Act (enacted by the National Assembly itself) which confers original jurisdiction on the court in any dispute between the President and the National Assembly. Assuming without conceding that the court acted ultra vires, is it for the National Assembly to constitute itself as an appeal court ? determining when a court possesses or lacks jurisdiction to determine a suit? At least, Democratic civility requires that the NASS challenges...

A WONDERFUL LETTER FROM HEAVEN TO MUMMY  Mommy, I am in Heaven now, sitting on Jesus' lap. He loves me and cries with me; for my heart has been broken. I so wanted to be your little girl. I don't quite understand what has happened. I was so excited when I began realizing my existence, because my existence started from conception when I was formed in your womb. I was in a dark, yet comfortable place. I saw I had fingers and toes. I was pretty far along in my developing, yet not near ready to leave my surroundings. I spent most of my time thinking or sleeping. Even from my earliest days, I felt a special bonding between you and me. Sometimes I heard you crying and I cried with you. Sometimes you would yell or scream, then cry. I heard Daddy yelling back. I was sad, and hoped you would be better soon. I wondered why you cried so much. One day you cried almost all of the day. I hurt for you, maybe you didn’t expect me, but God sent me to you as a special gift, ...

CHRISTIANS' BAD HABITS DURING CHURCH SERVICE I have noticed with utter dismay some bad habits practiced by some Christians, even during Church services, and even inside the Church building. These habits fall into different categories. Some are appalling, some disgusting, some funny, some unthinkable, some sinful, some are, some are, think of it; the list is endless! What do you make of someone doing 'Notice me' kind of habit, even in the church?! Come to think of it, someone who is just trying to show-off his brand-new latest iPone6 in the Church, what does the person want to achieve? A lady trying to 'gum body' with a guy in the church, for what? A guy 'toasting' a girl in the church, and even during church service, what relationship does he want to have? A politician coming to the Church to canvass for vote from church members, are we on the campaign ground? A school proprietor trying to 'seduce' church members to enroll their childr...
