Workplace liars

Hello, dears,

How are you? Really? Happy October.🌝😀😃


Did you know the truth is more important than facts? (Frank Lloyd Wright)

So today's topic is rather different from the usual. I pray you to learn something.

 "Thou shalt not lie"

How convenient is it for you to lie? Is your truthfulness dependent on your location? Proverbs 23:23



Very recently at work, a colleague mentioned something in passing to me but failed to inform me that the info was privy. Coincidentally, a superior inquires from me about the same info and I hastily communicated what I had heard.

The colleague who had divulged this "sweet info" to me, of a sudden denied having uttered the statement in question. 

Subsequently, at the close of work, I meet up with this same colleague and all he had were apologies with lame reasons for his earlier actions.


Well, this same scenario plays in different fashions in our everyday lives. We find ourselves in compromising situations that allow us to adjust the simple commandment, 'thou shalt not lie' (cf. Lev. 19:11)


In situations like this, I pray that you choose to do the right.


Remember, we won't continue in sin because His grace toward us doth abound.


Song Suggestion: Lord send revival by Hillsong Young and Free. 


Love, peace, and good health,

Faith, for the Royal Rubies.

    If it's at the work place, expect much more of LIES. it's easy to tell a lie especially to cover up.

    In the end, everything starts and ends on one's PRINCIPLES.

    So, WHAT ARE YOUR PRINCIPLES?

    May God help us to always choose truth, no matter how uneasy it may be

    Even if it is to save our skin, it is still called a lie🙇🏾‍♂️

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
