THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 72, 'THE WOMAN', TOPIC: My MOTHER , MY INFLUENCER.

 


MY MOTHER MY INFLUENCER.

WHAT KIND OF MOTHER DO YOU WANT TO BE?

 

           Even before my first tears hits the ground, my mother was there to wipe it away. My mother feels my pains before I can even realize it. She understands my needs before I can even think of them.

 That’s why we call her a mother.

 My mother has been an extraordinary influence in my life and always will, she is the kind of mum who would always take timeout to care for her children not only her biological children, but also her spiritual children, adopted children, friends, families, relatives, love ones and even enemies. She lived sacrificial live, she is so simple and easy going, always smiling even at difficult time, she doesn't give up and she has taught me to be strong, prayerful, reliable as a woman, sister, wife, mother and all that I represent.

 




BE RELIABLE AND RESPONSIBLE:

"Reliability and responsibility are two quiet virtues that can announce a person and make him or her a generational blessing.”
 
 “She taught me to be a shoulder to lean on for my generation, to be a rescuer to my generation and also a lady of substance, influence, knowledge, filled with wisdom, hardworking, spirit filled, never giving up type, to be a lady that set goals, focus on the goals and never give up”.
She taught me to always be responsible and respectful, she taught and influence me to be a shelter that people can always run to, a hospital for the sick, a hand that feeds nation's, a lady that Is a blessing to her generation.
       Despite what she faced in her husband's house, she never allowed that to stop or disturb her early assignment. She so much love children and they always surround her, even few hours before she died she still went to church and asked the little children to come out and thank God on her behalf for divine healing, I thank God for her life because even at the point of death she still went to church before dying. What a fulfilled life. My mother has always been a very strong role model to me and everyone around her, growing up with someone like her to look up to has changed my life in many ways, she has helped me grow physically, spiritually, intellectually and considerately. She taught me how to love, care and give back to people. She is the one who was there to lean on when I cannot fix my own problems and always taught me to lean on God the more through the study of the word of God, walk with God and always communicate with him. Her advice and words make me, she always knows what to say or when not to say anything and she let me try things myself. Her influence affects the way I lived my life, she never pushed even though she probably wanted to but never let me to give upon something am good at either, without the influence of my mum I would have no morals, I wouldn't know how to maximize my true potentials.
 
“NEVER GIVE UP”

She has always encouraged getting up and trying it a gain no matter how bad I was, she always believed in my dreams. If I want a thing she supports me to get it especially when it’s something that will impact me positively, I could remember while coming to school I was about giving up because my family wasn't financially buoyant as at then, but my mum never let me give up on my dream of becoming graduate, she tried all possible means, she sacrificed a lot of things to watch me and my siblings go to school and succeed in life. She always said to me “what doesn't kill you simply makes you stronger, better and wiser' and that suffering don't last long it's only a matter of time.”

 She is simply the best always, she is a role model indeed.
 
 
RECOMMENDED BOOKS:

I recommend Gifted hand by Ben Carson, it's Ben's true life story which also contains how his mother was a great influence in his life and family. Also I recommend Just as I Am by Billy Graham there he mentioned seven life lessons he learnt from his mother which are:
 
1 Dignity in hard work.
2 A mother's prayers are powerful.
3 Spend time in God's word every day.
4 Start reading at younger age.
5 Marriage is worth fighting for.
6 Even the best parents make mistakes.
7 Finish well.

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES, "THE MAN" TOPIC: DYING EMPTY

Everyone exists, but not everyone truly lives.   Myles  Munroe  was right when he said that “the grave is the richest place on earth.” _ Humanity has seen thousands and thousands of people since inception, but what preserves the memory of those we remember today is basically what they did while they were alive. “Everybody will die, but maybe not everybody would have truly lived before dying.”   Dying empty is not just an event. It is a culmination of a series of events hinged on intentional living. To die empty, we cannot neglect the question of purpose. Man is a being of purpose. He was created with an intention. In a bid to die empty, we must pay close attention to the "3Ds of purpose".   Discovering Purpose.   Developing Purpose.   Deploying Purpose.   PURPOSE DISCOVERY. Until we have discovered the purpose for living, dying empty will be mere and empty talk.   I submit to you, that God sent you her...

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES (51) "THE MAN"

THE MAN “A great man isn’t afraid to do what is right, no matter what.” The male man is a being created in the image of God and after His likeness, he is well decorated by God to function like Him and act like Him. God had a perfect plan for the male man, because he is the crown of God’s creation. The fall of man in the garden of Eden changed the original plan of God, nevertheless He did not give up on man God created man to have dominion over all creation, and saddled him with enormous responsibility which includes creating value upon the earth, preserving and nurturing all of creation into God’s perfect will. The world is shaped by the decisions of men, from time immemorial the specie called man, has been associated with a lot of things that are not approved by God, things that have limited the original purpose of God for the male man. Such things go against the original order of God. Sin is transgression of God’s law, man in both present and past dispensations have bee...

POEM TITLED: HOME

  This is what we get We know suffering like the back of our palms We know the smell of death better than our farms We know war in sick flesh We know it is in the agonizing screams of mothers and babes We know it is in the guns of soldiers that ever remain fresh Home is a divided populace of meaningless greed Home is pessimism Our fathers fill their bottomless cups with speed They keep pouring, cup after cup until their eyes form a prism This bizarre world do not motivate our mothers to chip in counsel Our families hang loose on the rope of half-light We are left to form roots lighter than parcel We remain buried in the dark, yet they call us children of light What are roots if they strangle you? Who are ancestors if all they do is worsen your narrative? Home at this point is a suspect Our beautiful eyes fear the world We shower them with tears to keep them from running away The fear in our hearts leave the future crooked And whenever we arrive we begin to mend it till we pass away...
