It's a Double Portion Day




 It's a Double Portion Day

 

It's the 31st of December 2020 and also the LAST DAY of the year 2020

How blessed are we to see the end of the month of December and also the end of the year 2020.

How blessed are we indeed!

On a day like this, all that one really needs to do is to sit by himself and take stock of the passing year.

Taking stock means  checking out the successes and the failures; checking out the figures in the assets column and the liabilities column; checking out the goals for the year and noting which ones were met and which not met and generally doing an introspective analysis of how far we have come.

It is also a day to state the goals for the next year, not just writing them down in a notebook (which is very essential) but also stating in clear terms the ways and means by which they shall be accomplished.

Today also shall witness the cross over night service in most places of worship - well just as we have earlier advised, you don't have to go to a Church or a Mosque to cross over to the new year, it is God that crosses anyone over and not the place of worship and neither the Pastor nor the Imam. Stay in your house and observe the cross over night but however if you must go to a crowded place, ensure that you wear your nose and mouth mask, observe social distance and neither hug nor shake hands with anyone no matter how friendly. That your friend may be a Super Carrier and you may not know it.

And it's time now for me to officially and formally thank you for having kept us company since the 1st of January 2020.

In this space of one year, God has given me His grace to write every day and to share such write ups with you, some of which you read and commented on and some of which went unread per-adventure when you were indisposed to read and some of which you read but kept quiet. Whichever one applies, it was my great pleasure to have been of service to you in whichever manner the write-ups contributed to your wellbeing or even wealthbeing.

In this outgoing year, we introduced the following programs

-       Book Reading Challenge

-       Positive Affirmations Challenge

-       Reinvent Yourself Challenge

-       The Truth series

-       The Top Iconic Daily Quotes series

-       The TOTT series

And we also started a Project - the JTF Book Club - designed to raise Leaders through Reading. If you are yet to subscribe to the JTF Book Club, kindly do so now as we are kickstarting our activities on the 1st of January 2021. Membership of the Club comes with a load of benefits.

So just in case you don't read again from me before the year runs out, thank you once again for your time.

See you in 2021 by the grace of God

As The End Of 2020 Draws Closer

 



Very soon, 2020 will enter into the history bin of years that have passed by.

On the 1st of January 2020, we were all very excited as we always are on entering the new year and all of us were wishing each other - a very prosperous year as we are wont to do.

No one saw corona virus

Yes it was mentioned in December 2019 as an ailment in China but we all thought it was limited to China.

No Prophet prophesied about corona virus.

No visioner made it out

No seer saw it coming

January 2020 went on as it used to - the longest month of the year

And then February arrived with the news of corona virus becoming a pandemic and by March, the Governments of the world went into a panic mode, declaring lockdowns all over the place. Movements literally came to a halt and so did governance.

Conspiracy theorists took to the airwaves accusing 5G of causing corona virus and yet they could not account for how corona virus was also happening in Countries that had not embraced the 5G technology.

Corona virus leveled 2020 and in turn became a leveler for all irrespective of their status - the poor and the rich, the Minister and the car Driver, the Presidents and their citizens.

Those who used to travel out for medical attention had no choice but to remain in their own Countries and they have survived showing that whatever they went for outside could also be found inside.

As 2020 ends and we prepare to enter 2021 by the Special Grace of God, you do not need a seer to tell you that corona virus is still in town. You do not need a Prophet to prophesy about the miracle cure for corona virus.  You obviously do not need any visioner to see the vision for you.

As 2020 ends, be your own Seer, be your own Prophet, be your own Visioner.

You don't have to be in a crowded place to cross over to 2021 - do it in the comfort of your home. GOD IS EVERYWHERE especially in you.

If you don't want the plague to come near you, keep a far distance from it.

Your protection is in your own hands and as usual it is always your choice.

Compliments of the season and a Happy New Year in advance

Today Is Boxing Day

 



Today Is Boxing Day

As  a little boy, whenever I heard boxing day, I used to think that it was a day set aside for people to fight (box) each other.

And my thought then was not helped by the fact that those mesmerizing boxing tournaments of yore, used to be fixed on the 26th of December.

But when I became old enough to know left from right, I got to know that Boxing Day is a holiday celebrated on the day after Christmas which makes it the second day of the Christmastide and practiced in Commonwealth Countries.

So Boxing Day was traditionally a day off for servants, and the day when they received a special Christmas box from their masters. The servants would also go home on Boxing Day to give Christmas boxes to their families.




It was also a day when Trades-people, and the poor traditionally were presented with gifts.

However for a long time, not only has Boxing Day turned to a day for family picnics and reunions, it has also become a shopping holiday when Shoppers used the advantage of the holiday to shop for the New Year festivities.



Today is December 26th and it is the Boxing Day.

Whatever it means to you, utilize it very well

Happy Boxing Day

It's Christmas Day

 



2000 years, about a time like this, in the City of David called Bethlehem, a Child was born.

He was named Jesus, Who went on to become the Christ of God and the Lamb for sacrifice in order to reconcile mankind with the Father of All Light.

He was born that you may have life and have it more abundantly

He was born that you may be free from the bondages that hold you down

He was born that you may experience joy beyond imaginations

He was born that you may experience the love which only God can give

He was born that you have that peace which passeth human understanding.




It doesn't matter what the situations and circumstances say, Jesus Christ was born just because of you.

Claim Him today, invite Him in, let Him abide with you and become your own EMMANUEL.

May your days henceforth be merry and bright

Today, every other thing pales into insignificance.

Jesus is the REASON for the SEASON




I am wishing you a very merry and white Christmas

Merry Christmas
