IS NOT LIFE MORE THAN FOOD AND THE BODY MORE THAN CLOTHES?



IS NOT LIFE MORE THAN FOOD AND THE BODY MORE THAN CLOTHES?

By Adedire Tosin-Adegoke

What drives you determines your result. Life is indeed more than food and the body more than raiment. Only a man who is alive can eat food and wear clothes. Seek earnestly that you will not die while living.

Physical food is for the physical body, belly for food and food for the belly, both will be destroyed. When a man takes his last breath, he is buried and the physical body decays. Yet, many only take care of this physical body at the expense of their spirit man.

A lady accepts to offer her body to get a job, so that she can have money to eat and buy clothes to take care of her body. She says she is under pressure and there is no one to help, so she decides to give the physical body preference.

Now she has the job and have access to new clothes, but despite the fact that she can eat anything she wants, there is still a void in her soul, she feels empty, worthless, no sense of fulfillment.

The bible rightly said it in Proverbs 3: 5-7 that, “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will direct your path. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil.”

God has made provision for all that we worry about, we will only get relieved from our worries the day we start paying attention to the instructions contained in the word of God.

We are instructed to trust absolutely. Obedience to God’s instructions ushers you into peaceful living.

Feed on the word of God, there are situations that has brought our backs to the ground, just because we refuse to study to show our selves approved.

When men assume the role of helper in your life, they tend to turn themselves to small gods, but when God send people to help you, they see it as a priviledge to help you.
Stand up and make a life changing choice!

𝐓𝐎𝐆𝐄𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐖𝐄 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐍𝐃 By Joy Titobiloluwa Adekanbi  Going down memory lane, English language used to be a boring subject. The essays and grammar made it worse. What’s with the comprehension passages and summary? Yet we had to pass it.  We needed to because it was compulsory to pass a subject that was about a language imposed on us by the very people who enslaved us.  We got our independence from them but kept their language as ours.  Well, with a country like ours, we don’t have much of a choice. About 250 ethnic groups living together in one hood isn’t a joke.  How else would we communicate? The decision to use a single language negates what God did at the Tower of Babel. We are struggling to maintain unity among people of different languages who have refused to be one because of the fear of being betrayed. English which is supposed to be a unifying factor has brought about discrimination among different social classes.  This discrimination exists within each ethnic group a
