Become Matured

It’s time to become mature

7 April 2019

EXTRACT FROM UCB WORD FOR TODAY.

 ‘Maturity is the ability to control your anger and settle your differences without violence or resentment.

 Maturity is patience;

 it’s the willingness to pass up short-term pleasure for long-term gain.

 It’s the ability to “sweat it out” in spite of heavy opposition or discouraging setbacks.

 It’s the capacity to face unpleasantness and frustration without complaining or collapsing.

 Maturity is humility.

 It’s being big enough to say, “I was wrong,” and when you are right, never needing to say, “I told you so.”

 Maturity is the ability to make a decision and follow through with it instead of exploring endless possibilities and doing nothing about any of them.

 Maturity means dependability, keeping your word, and coming through in a crisis.

The immature are masters of alibi;

 they’re the confused and the disorganised.

 Their lives are a maze of broken promises, former friends, unfinished business, and good intentions.

 Maturity is the art of being at peace with what you can’t change, having the courage to change what you can, and the wisdom to know the difference.’

 The Bible says,
 ‘We must try to become mature and start thinking about more than just the basic things we were taught.’

So the word for you today is.......

it’s time to become  MATURE.

Have a fruitful day.

YOU CANNOT GET BY PRAYER WHAT YOU SHOULD GET BY CHARACTER & OBEDIENCE

I don't know who authored this, but it's powerful, knowledge, wisdom & educative! Take time to read it.... A man’s character is his fate. Heraclitus Thomas Jefferson, the third President of the United States (US), said: “Nothing can stop the man with the right mental attitude from achieving his goal; nothing on earth can help the man with the wrong mental attitude .” As a clergyman, I have watched pitiably how people self-sabotage themselves by seeking spiritual solutions to character-deficit issues. They look around at everybody as suspects for their predicaments when their greatest demons lurks within them - their character. What we often call our destiny is truly our character, and since that character can change, then destiny can be altered. Character is destiny . Is prayer actually EVERYTHING? Many would begin to argue back and forth on this intriguing question, but my main purpose of writing this piece is not to get involved in arguments. _Arguments don’t impr...

TAKE A REST BEFORE YOU ARE LAID TO REST

Thought I should share this 👇 TAKE A REST BEFORE YOU ARE LAID TO REST Dear All, There is no doubt, things are tough in Nigeria today. To enjoy a healthy living and survival, it takes dedicated efforts and the Grace of God. Be satisfied with what you have. Spend wisely and buy only what you really need to make you live healthily. Avoid conflicts in any form. Many people are angry, frustrated  and ready to kill at any little provocation!. Patience is key. Ignore and avoid trouble as much as possible and learn to say the magic words "I am sorry". Men should please control their anger. We know how hard it is to make ends meet these days but please, don't take it down on your family. Let your home be a peaceful place. Don't worry, we will all smile, again, hopefully. Women, endure with your husbands. Don't complain. Show love. Be good mothers, create fun to ease tension. Your health should be very important, give it a priority. Eat moderately...

_SUCCESS IS NOT A CALLING BUT A DECISION !

_SUCCESS IS NOT A CALLING BUT A DECISION !_  The economy is tight, yet people are still buying cars. People are opening new businesses. People are expanding new frontiers, How?  Stop complaining! Government is not the answer for the hour. You are the driver of your own destiny. I have never seen anytime in the history of the human race when there are no hard times. Yet people made waves and affected their generation. If you see anybody complaining, then you see a frustrated lazy man or woman looking for cheap answers and solutions. Nothing in life will ever come easy. I believe what we need at this period is the drive to push until victory comes. _Many successful people had tried one thing or the other before they became successful._ "I Have Never Seen A RICH Person Who Has Never lost Money. But I Have Seen A Lot Of POOR People Who Have Never Lost A Dime" ---Robert Kiyosaki- "The Primary Difference Between The RICH And The POOR Is How They Handle FEAR in I...
