SERVING IN THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE. It was on Tuesday, 11th October 2016, before leaving for the Evangelism Committee meeting. One of the CU’s Executive Committee member broke the news to me that I had been nominated as the next Bible Study and Training Coordinator. This meant that I would serve in the subsequent Executive Committee. It was a great shock to me for I hadn’t foreseen it. I was at loss for words so he let me go think over and pray about it. The Executive Committee, commonly referred to as the......

The suicidal route- of STGs and STJs Although gone, the memory of you-my little sister- remains vivid. Having bid goodbye the first two thirds of the 8.4.4 system, the university lay in wait. Anxious, as anyone else could be, we joined the university village-fresh. City life, which had been a dream, was now a reality. We had a good time to explore. Countless times we were stranded in town with the National Archives serving as a point mark back to campus. With the first Friday night, came two invites; freshmen’s party and......

A story is told of a group which committed to fasting every once a week. They would meet in the meeting, each with a confession, whether they had been faithful or not. One day, a brother confessed that he had not fasted that day. Reason? He was not under the law. For the next few days, I battled the desire to eat and just go confess that I too, was not under the law! I do struggle with beating my flesh during fasting. On the very day I am supposed to be......

A very close friend of mine once told me, “I can’t do a course in business. Everyone else is doing that course and the competition in the job market is just too high.” His argument seemed to have been well researched but to me, there was something missing. My friend was forgetting the fact that each one of us is uniquely gifted. God placed unique potential in each one of us. In other words you are totally different from me. There is only one you in the whole world. No one can......

Hello there? I wanna teach about how to love, how to really care, how to live together as one. I’ve seen people who are very successful in business. I’ve seen others who have made it in politics, and some holding the best paying jobs in the world. Satirically though – I’ve seen them live miserable life. Again I’ve made an observation that these are the people who can’t stay longer with others. But… why? It is simple; they haven’t learned the basic principles of living with others. A couple of months ago,......

One day a while back, a man, his heart heavy with grief, was walking in the woods. As he thought about his life this day, he knew many things were not right. He thought about those who had lied about him back when he had a job. His thoughts turned to those who had stolen his things and cheated him. He remembered family that had passed on. His mind turned to the illness he had, that no one could cure. His very soul was filled with anger, resentment, and frustration. Standing there......

There is nothing in writing. You just need to sit down and u’ll have something down. Believe me; you don’t have to plan for you to have something written. Who lied to us that for one to be a writer you must have an inborn dictionary or have some extraordinary aptitude? Many of us have great passion in to write but sadly that itch fades out because they use a lot of time planning instead of writing then at the end of it all they give-in. E Doctorow puts it in better......
