Bargain

-

Hiya! 💃

Welcome to the second half of the year.🎉

Whoosh! 

July brings with it bounties, are you ready to claim it?🎁

Don't be scared to drive a hard bargain, after all, the world is a market!

May today's post bless your heart.

I commute daily to work using public means of transportation. However, before entering any vehicle, I do well to bargain to avoid stories that touch. On some occasions, when the conductors are unsatisfied with my bargain, they drive off 'cause I wouldn't budge or agree to an outrageous sum for a trip. In the same wise, while waiting, other vehicles in dire need of customers, agree to my terms, and boom, off we go.

I like to compare this to how crafty the devil gets when he wants to make a deal. He likes to drive a hard bargain when things seem rosy. A case in point, Mr. Job. (Job 1:6-12.)

See how the devil was green with envy while he patrolled his vicinity. Can you see how prompt he was to clinch the tiny window of opportunity God gave him?

There is the enemy of God, and of all righteousness, who is continually seeking to distress, to lead astray, and, if possible, to destroy those who love God. While we are on this earth we are within his reach. Hence it concerns us to be sober and vigilant, 1Peter 5:8.

Hold on! Fret not!

Remember, the teacher is always silent during the test.

This might just be a test.


As you proceed into this week, beware that the devil will drag a hard bargain over your life.

Please don't fall God's hands.

Love and light,

Faith, for the Royal Rubies.

    Vigilance is the watch word. May I never lose focus on the fact that victory is in the cross.

3, 2, 1. . . Blast off ! Welcome to the second half of 2020. Forgive my delay in reaching out. However, I trust you've been in good health. When the wait lengthens, When all you feel is regression, I hope you remember Him who makes the wait remarkable. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• This period has been filled with unforeseen delays. Several weddings and events were postponed. Some organizations took to the social web in order to keep relevant. Kudos to them. Church halls reverberated with long silence. Classrooms weren't left out as they piled up cobwebs. Oh my, libraries were also deserted. Recreational parks hungered for some merriment. Cinema houses suffered abandonment. Alas, many homes now have steady occupants. During this period, some took out time to develop themselves. Others were not afforded such an initiative. Then we realized that in spite of the events (and what we made of them), time still marched on. Even while we wa

Growing Up: A Scam

Hiya! A pleasant day it is, ain't it? How has it been at your end? I hope you still remember to smile and cut yourself some slack? Today's topic resonates with many of us. Very recently, I clocked a year. Prior to this, I'd always believed growing up to be a scam. I'm glad to point out that this is quietly changing. Nonetheless, that doesn't excuse society for making demands of me before I was prepared. I was told to go to school and gain an education. All glory to God, I passed through the primary, secondary and the so-much talked about tertiary institution. Along the way, I was told when I grow up, the jigsaw puzzle would somehow fit. Well, I have no words for this. Maybe 'cause I'm still growing. All I have is a certain level of distrust against the system. Reasonably, I'm discovering that growing up is an opportunity to become relevant and make an impact in the scheme of things . We were such in a haste to grow up and we had no inkling that we were,

Knowledge

A pleasant afternoon to you. How do you do? On today's post, knowledge is said to be appealing. Here's why... Sound knowledge is a venture not everyone is willing to invest in . Knowledge, they say is power, but what are you willing to pay for its acquisition? Everyone, or rather, majority of folks love to be associated with individuals who are vast and deep versed. However, we fail to make enquiries as to how such a feat was acquired. We would rather appreciate the outcome, than emulate the means. Recently, I confided in a friend my inability to prepare 'starch', a native meal of my motherland. He did well to remind me of the wealth of knowledge embedded in Google. Shamefacedly, I promised myself to look up the recipe for the meal. Don't ask if I have looked it up. How many opportunities to accumulate knowledge have we passed up? Or just when would you realize how powerful a person with knowledge, is? The means of acquiring knowledge is a process
