A Solemn Message From Me To You

 

Listen,

as the month of May 2022 unfolds, let me tell you something!

The most empowering thing you can do in life is to take 100% responsibility for everything in your life. Your failures, your successes, your guffaws, your mistakes, your over indulgences, your tomfooleries,  your one- night- stand, your one -drink- too -many, your everything

Stop blaming past circumstances.

Stop blaming people.

Stop blaming what happened to you.

Stop blaming your parents

Stop blaming your ancestors, they are dead and gone

in short, stop the BLAME game

Stop pointing accusing fingers, when you point one finger, three others are pointing back at you thus declaring you more guilty

You cannot undo what has been done BUT you can learn from there and do it better next time - there will always be a next time.

You cannot turn back the hands of the clock neither  can you fast forward it, you just have to use the time as it is now.

Stop playing the victim, it only gets you deeper into the pit

Man up to your situation

Life happens as it is meant to

Accept it and move on

You are brought into the World to be a victor

Go and be one

I am Dr. Jerry - the First

The Truth - 2

*The Truth, The Whole Truth and Nothing But The Truth*

So your neighbour's  child is attending the elitist Eton College and you must kill yourself so that your child can also go there in order to show that you are not made of inferior stuff?

So the one who is your best friend has just built an 8 Bedroom all-terraced mansion and you feel that God no longer loves you since He has not empowered you to do likewise?

Listen up

Life is not about competition, it is all about cooperation.

It is your competitive nature that has brought many of those ailments to you or about to

Recognize the fact that we all have different life lines and routes and that the only competition you should really have is with yourself

To improve yourself by 1% every day is the competition worth entering into

Now, that is  *the Truth, the WHOLE Truth and nothing but the Truth*

Be Positive Always No Matter What

Hello Friend

I know the World is really a messed up place right now with the corona virus pandemic claiming lives daily and people waking up every day and not knowing whether it will be their last - what with the mass shootings, the mass murders, the serial kidnappings, the tortures, the gang rapes and all that  as if lives no longer matter

Yea we are really in for the long thing since bad and negative news has become our daily diet whether we want to eat it or not BUT I want to let you know that irrespective of the negativity around and about us, you can still make a choice to remain positively minded and focused and to do that I'd like to show you 3 positive thinking tips that will greatly improve your

perspective and help you deal with negative thoughts

1) Have The Unconquerable Mindset.

Affirm to yourself, "Here I am, and I am here to stay, World, do your worst!"

It may sound like you're inviting bad luck, but what this really means is that you're welcoming life's challenges with open arms and are willing to bravely take them on.

Like a proud sentinel in a storm, you stand firm against anything flung at you.

And no matter how muddied and besieged you emerge from the battle, you emerge nonetheless, ever ready to fight and live

another day.

2) Do A Good Deed.

One thing that can open you up to positivity is doing good things.

If you find a needy person asking for help, be a good World Citizen.

Not only will you feel better, you'll also have more reason to believe that life is not that bad.

If there are people who are willing to do good without asking for anything in return, then this

planet would a much better place.

"I did good today" is one mantra that never fails to lift up your spirits.

And doing good does not have to be all about giving out money or buying gift items or buying food for hungry people, it could be just a simple smile to lift the spirit of one who is depressed, it could be helping that grand dad or grand ma cross the busy road, it could be helping that lost kid to locate his family - quite a number of small acts to help out humanity and this is the reason it is said that "no one is without something to give"

3) Be Around Positive Thinkers.

The company you surround yourself with can more or less affect you the way you look at life.

If your friends see the world in a dark and twisted perspective, you shouldn't be surprised to find yourself feeling depressed more often than not.

Jim Rohn captured it aptly when he said that "you are the average of 5 persons you spend the most time with"

If your friends are all whiners, complainers, whisperers,  gossips - would it be surprising to find you swimming in that same ocean too?

Even the very Good Book says - "show me your friends and I will tell you who you are"

Keep away from negative people and hang out with the positive ones.

Let the latter group influence you with their ways.

It's easier to remain positive when the people around you support your point of view.

Choose your friends wisely and turn a new page in your life.

That's it for today

I'll see you again in the next mail

Have a great day

Remember to remain positive always despite the conditions and circumstances around you

Ciao

My Favourite Psalm For My Birthday Today

1.     I will life up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help

2.     My help cometh from the Lord Who made Heaven and Earth

3.     He will not suffer my feet to be moved, He that keepeth me will not slumber

4.    Behold He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep

5.    The Lord is my Keeper, the Lord is my Shade upon my right hand

6.    The sun shall not smite me by day nor the moon by night

7.    The Lord shall preserve me from all evil, He shall preserve my soul

8.    The Lord shall preserve my going out and my coming in from this time forth and even for ever more

Amen

My Favourite Hymn For My Birthday Today

 

O God, my Help in ages past

My Hope for years to come

My Shelter from the stormy blast

And my Eternal Home

Beneath the Shadow of Thy Throne

Thy son has dwelt secure

Sufficient is Thine Arm alone

And my Defence is sure

Before the hills in order stood

Or earth received her frame

From everlasting Thou art God

To endless years the same

A thousand ages in Thy sight

Are like an evening gone

Short as the watch that keeps the night

Before the rising sun

Time like an ever rolling stream

Bears all its sons away

They fly forgotten as a dream

Dies at the opening day

O God my Help in ages past

My Hope for years to come

Be Thou my Guard while troubles last

And my Eternal Home

My Favourite English Chorus For My Birthday Today

I will call upon the Lord

Who is worthy to be praised

I will call upon His Name

He is worthy to be praised

So shall I be saved from my enemies

The Lord reigneth

Reigneth

Blessed be the Lord

Let the God of my salvation be exalted

The Lord reigneth

Reigneth

Blessed be the Lord

Let the God of my salvation be exalted

I will call upon the Lord

I will call upon the Lord

Who is worthy to be praised

Who is worthy to be praised

I will magnify His Name

I will magnify His Name

He is worthy to be praised

So shall I be saved from my enemies

The Lord reigneth

Reigneth

Blessed be the Lord

Let the God of my salvation be exalted

The Lord reigneth

Reigneth

Blessed be the Lord

Let the God of my salvation be exalted

It's My Birth Date

 

It's the 3rd of July

The date when I was brought into this world by my Parents - Elder Mark Nwaneto and Ezinne Lois Adaezi Oguzie (both of blessed memory)

The days have varied but the date has remained constant, no matter how much things have changed in and around me, that date can never be changed.

I have lived long enough to know that "without God, I am nothing"

I have lived long enough to know that "the race is not to the swift"

I have lived long enough to know that "if God be with and for me, who can be against me?"

I have also lived long enough to know that "the just shall live by faith"

In all these years from birth up until now, the Able Hands of God have guided me, His Presence has always gone out before me and also come at my back, His Spirit had always overshadowed whatever terrestrial and extraterrestrial spirits that want to buffet me from the left and from the right.

Today, I want to return all the THANKSGIVING and ADORATION unto Him that saw me from afar, sculptured and moulded me, caused me to be delivered without stress, gave me a name and gave me a charge - go ye and conquer.

I return all PRAISE and DOMINION unto HIM that Liveth forever and forever, even unto GOD the Omnipotent, Omnipresent, Omniscient.

Let His Name Alone be always glorified

Thank You Abba Father for this one, more grace my Lord

We Have Made Life Difficult For Ourselves

My Friends,

I greet you all.

I am so happy that I woke up well this morning and my happiness streams from the fact that God did it again for me. I was just meditating this morning and wondering how life would have been were it that this life sustaining gas called oxygen was to be purchased; I just wonder how many of us could have afforded it.

But in His goodness, He made the best things of life free for us – just name them, oxygen, chlorophyll, sun, rain, roots, herbs, e.t.c.

But in our complexity we have made life more difficult for ourselves and those around us.

Love has flown out of the windows

Sincerity of purpose is now a thing of the past

Trust has failed severally that it is now difficult to trust even one’s own biological siblings

Pretence and double - facedness have taken over the airspace

Blackmails, kidnappings, frame ups, high profile murders, assassinations, have become our daily bread

Lies, cheating, deceit, idle gossip, “fastness” are now the in-thing

Outright stealing even in the Name of the Lord has become a lucrative ministry

Celebration of mediocrity and banishment of merit on so many false altars

Foundations being built on sandy soil, muddy waters and slippery landscape

Living on the fast lane – “let us wine and dine today for tomorrow we die”

Life has become more complicated than God actually intended it.

Is it not time to head back to what God originally intended the earth to be – a place where man could live simply and enjoy – knowing fully well that in all things and no matter what we have accumulated or achieved, some day, just some day it would be said of us “dust to dust, earth to earth and ash to ash”

Knowing these things, what manner of men ought we to be?

What manner of men indeed??

That is why most times these days I hanker after that old time religion, when men were sincerely innocent even in their adult ages and actually believed God Whom they worshipped.

Give me that old time religion

Give me that old time religion

Old time religion is good enough for me

Father have mercy!!!!!!

Have a wonderful Friday

Today

Bless and be Blessed

And don't you ever forget that I love you more than you love yourself

See you tomorrow
