Friendship

FRIENDSHIP: FRIENDS SAILING ON THE SAME SHIP NO MATTER THE CHALLENGES OF LIFE.
Friendship means to be in mutual agreement with someone. Friendship is a choice that can either make you or mar you.
An adage says ''show me your friend and I will show you who you are''
There are friends and there are friends. Friends come in variety, those who will be there for you, those who want you for what you have.e.t.c.
This story below is a good example of a true friend.
A voyaging ship was wrecked during a storm at sea and only two of the men on it were able to swim to a small, desert like island.
The two survivors who have been good friends, not knowing what else to do, agreed that they had no other recourse but to pray to God. 
However, to find out whose prayer was more powerful, they agreed to divide the territory between them and stay on opposite sides of the island.The first thing they prayed for was food. The next morning, the first man saw a fruit-bearing tree on his side of the land, and he was able to eat its fruit. The other man’s parcel of land remained barren.After a week, the first man was lonely and he decided to pray for a wife
The next day, another ship was wrecked, and the only survivor was a woman who swam to his side of the land. On the other side of the island, there was nothing.Soon the first man prayed for a house, clothes, more food. The next day, like magic, all of these were given to him. However, the second man still had nothing.Finally, the first man prayed for a ship, so that he and his wife could leave the island. In the morning, he found a ship docked at his side of the island. 
The first man boarded the ship with his wife and decided to leave the second man on the island.He considered the other man unworthy to receive God’s blessings, since none of his prayers had been answered.As the ship was about to leave, the first man heard a voice from heaven booming, “Why are you leaving your companion on the island?”

What to do when Joy does not come in the morning

So I stumbled on this post from this site www.prayingwoman.com and i decided to share it with you guys.
After a long hard or stressful day you determine that the most appropriate solution is to retire for the night or go to sleep. “Let’s get this day over with”; after all, who doesn’t feel better after a nice long nap or a successful night’s sleep? In most cases this is true. But, what does one do when you don’t feel better after snoozing for eight hours? What does one do when he/she goes to bed upset, hurt or bothered, catches an attitude with everyone in their dreams, and STILL wakes up with no change of heart?
Secular logic may insist that one should feel better after a good night’s sleep, explained by physiological reasons. During sleep, our bodies complete all functions needed for memory consolidation and release of hormones, so that we wake up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. 
The medical world has everyone convinced that sleep plays a major role in our everyday lives, our health and social relationships; I concur. We can all relate to feeling groggy after the lack of sleep, or some may attest to “not being a morning person”. All of this is related to the quality and quantity of sleep we are getting each night.
Biblical logic states “weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning” (Psalms 30:5). As a Christian, I have declared this many times over my own problems and those whom I have helped. But what happens when morning comes, and joy is nowhere to be found? Biblical teachings tell us that God’s ways are not like our ways. His thoughts are not like our thoughts and his timing does not translate into the time guidelines of this world. Morning to God does not mean 12:01 a.m. as chronological time defines, nor does it mean daylight which is the commonly accepted definition of morning. In the Bible, morning refers to the time after physical and spiritual darkness in one’s life.Spiritual darkness can last days, weeks, even years which, in turn, means morning can be offset by a day, a week and even years. The Bible does not advise when morning comes but it does declare that when it comes, joy will be its companion. When you are in the midst of your darkness, what can you do? S.L.E.E.P, continue to sleep through the darkness and when it’s morning time, time for your blessing, time for your joy… Jesus Christ, our Lord and our Savior will awaken you. Stay blessed!

How to make puff puff

So, I made puff puff during the weekend and I  want to show you guys the recipe and the method.
It is so easy to do, you dont have to go to a catering school to learn.
Easy peasy right.

Ingredient
1 teaspoon of dry yeast
1½ teaspoon of sugar
1 cup of flour
A pinch of salt
 A cup of water
Vegetable oil
These are the quantity of  ingredients I used to make the puff puff  but you can double the amount depending on the quantity of people you want to cater for.

Method
  • Add the yeast to the cup of water and allow to dissolve by stirring
  • Add the sugar to the dissolved yeast and stir
  • Also add a pinch of salt and stir
  • Cover the mixture for some few minutes using aluminum foil or any substitute and allow to rise for some minutes
  • Then add the yeast after it has risen to the flour and stir
  • Cover the flour with aluminum foil and allow to rise for 45 minutes
  • The batter would have doubled in size and there will be no air bubbles
  • Then it is ready for frying, it must be a little thicker
The batter should look like this, so it is ready for frying.

  • Scoop some batter into the oil with your hand by pressing the batter to come out from between your thumb and index finger.
  • Put in more scoops of the batter, as much as the space in the frying pot will allow without overcrowding.
  • Once the underside of the puff puff has turned golden brown, flip the ball so that the topside will be fried as well
  • Enjoy your puff puff

  You can also watch the video above on how to make it
