Where do you think human hair came from

Wow, this is an eye opener, Chris Rock went to India to inquire on where human hair is gotten from and how it is processed. It is so shocking that the Indian women sacrifice their hair to their gods and this hair is converted to human hair which is worn by ladies globally.
It baffles me to know that all those hair extensions come from people who sacrificed their hair.
Watch this video

Dont do things before you realise it is too late

So I watched this movie "Unforgivable" by Dayo Amusan, you guys should go and watch it, it is an interesting movie and there are so many lessons to learn from it.
In summary, the lady Adesewa married Damola who was a play boy back in school days but her friend warned her against it, but,she did not heed to their advice thinking her love for him would change him.
Okay, back to the movie, she suffered a lot from him, the guy maltreated her, he did not care for her and his child. He was not appreciative of his wife's gestures, she cooked for him hut he would not eat it and the trend continued like that for so long.
So, one particular day, he came home and asked for food and she said, "I always make food for you but you dont eat it", and she had a bowl of oranges with a piece of knife with her, so she threatened him with the knife but the knife fell off her hand and he started beating her. In that process his daughter ran in and she mistakenly fell on the knife and she died.
He did not even know his wife had cancer, because she had started undergoing therapy and he saw she had already cut her hair. Because of his daughter's death, he decided to amend his ways, he became more endearing towards his wife.
On a fateful day, he prepared breakfast and decided to serve his wife, when he got to the room, he found that she was already dead.
In a nutshell, dont wait till something tragic happens before you amend your ways, dont let your situation end up like this couple.
What I learnt from this movie is that dont ever think you can change someone or your love for someone will change the person, some might change but it takes time, only God can change someone.
You cant always eat your cake and have it, have a lovely weekend guys, love you all.
And one more thing go and watch that movie.

SERVICE


Okay, today's message was on the power of being changed through serving. The preacher said we don't have to be famous to serve others, we don't need to be rich to serve others, we don't need to have everything going for us and he cited Mark 10 vs 42-45.
This bible verse in summary said to be great you must serve, you must put aside your pride and serve others be it in your own capacity.
You don't have to be in the limelight to serve others, you can even influence others by advising them, by being a reliable and responsible person. They might not be your friend anyways serve them, your reward will show up later.
Humans can be selfish we think of only ourselves, chop alone, me , myself and I.  Oh it is all about me who cares, I don't need to give her any money, I don't need to be kind to her because I know what I went through to get there.
I don't need to share this money, it is all mine
Don't be like this woman in the picture above, you keep hoarding it and one day you see it is all gone.
That is a myopic mentality, we need to shake it off, if not, because of others I don't think we will where we would have been because they chose to serve.
He also mentioned four ways we can serve:
  1. Serve God: Without Him, you wont be alive , He is your all in all
  2. Serve your family: Oh my parents don't treat me well, serve them there are many people who would love to have those parents you are neglecting
  3. Serve the world: Your friends, boss at work, people around you, your co-workers, the community at large.
  4. Serve the church: Join a group in your own little way and contribute
Then when you serve you become great, greatness does not connote riches, fame, wealth, yes they are the side attractions but the greatest of all is the inner peace and happiness within you.
There is this satisfaction you derive when you serve others, you feel fulfilled.
Reach out to that depressed soul, that lost girl, that battered child, be a source of impact to others and good will come to you.
I hope you have been blessed, love you all and have a great week ahead of you.

What are you doing during your waiting period

I was reading the books of Job this morning and I got to know that Job was a perfect man, he was the most righteous man who eschewed evil. He was also the greatest man of his time, he had so many possessions. Just imagine Aliko Dangote or Bill Gates of our time, he had people at his beck and call, he had numerous servants, estates, livestock e.t.c.
He could get anything he wanted at the snap of his fingers because he had everything money could buy, am sure he could even buy slaves if he wanted.
He also had children who had their own apartments and went there to feast during vacation. Imagine travelling to the United States on a week's trip or going to Dubai to cruise around because the world was at your feet. He even offered burnt offerings to God or even donated to charity in case his children had sinned unknowingly or knowingly so God could forgive their trespasses.
And suddenly something tragic happened which altered the course of his life, he lost everything from the estates, livestock to his children, e.t.c.
WHY ME LORD
WHY ME LORD
 
He became penniless and he kept questioning himself, "why me",
God who I have wronged,
Did my business partners connived together to deceive me.
Did I not serve God well
Did I not give to the poor
Did my wife wrong God
Did my children commit sins
Was I not faithful to God enough.
So many endless questions we ask ourselves when evil befall us
And because of that, he lost hope in himself, you can imagine someone who gave hope to the hopeless now becoming hopeless himself, he did not know how to forge ahead of life, he was confused, embittered, frustrated. And in that process he started cursing the day he was born, he became depressed. Even his friends tried to console him, but they did not succeed.
