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 58, THEME: THE MAN, TOPIC: THE MAN AND HIS BRIDE

  “Marriage is a very crucial part of human existence and it is the life blood of the society at large, because what the community will look like Strongly rest on what families look like and what families looks like depends on the Kind of head(man) and the neck(wife) that supports it” THE MAN AND HIS BRIDE Society has suffered a great deal because we haven't given attention to family life which obviously determines a lot of things. We would not be able to fully look into this discussion if we do not grasp God's intentions for man and then God's intentions for giving him a help meet for him.   IT IS NOT GOOD   God saw that it wasn't good for man to be alone, I'm carrying out the purposes of God man needs a help meet for him, it is the man and his wife that will become a family and establish the purposes of God in the society if darkness abides in a community, it is reflective of the fact that the families in that community have failed to establish the cou...

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 56, THEME: THE MAN, TOPIC: CREATING VALUE

  CREATING VALUE   Man has always been known for consistency in his quest to make money and fame, which is his definition of success. He is always looking for shortcuts just to make money and become rich and successful as they call it, but paid little or no attention to creating value which is indeed the easiest way to becoming successful. God was so deliberate when he created man, his desire is that man will be productive and create lasting values that impact the lives of everyone around him (Gen. 1:27-28). Value is anything you do that makes someone else’s life happier, easier, or more profitable . Creating value on the other hand means doing something to meet a need, filling a void, proffering solution to problems, or improving the way a good or service is being offered. Creating value makes you valuable, successful, and influential. Here are some tips on how to create value: THE GOD FACTOR:   You need God if you will create value. The presence of God is what gives mea...

THE CHAMPIONS SERIES 65, THE WOMAN, TOPIC; WOMEN ARE IMPORTANT TOO.

  THE WOMAN WOMEN ARE IMPORTANT TOO   “The value of a woman should not be judged by her gender, but by her value and impact in her family, society and the world at large.”   She is only human, often regarded as an insignificant being. Sometimes she goes through a lot like: Abuse (physical, emotional, sexual and social abuse), domestic violence, social segregation, early marriage as well as being deprived of her human rights. Little do we know that life begins in her womb and it is in her guiding hands and tender care that it finds expression. She is a woman! Why do we rejoice so much when a male child is born but show little or no excitement if it is a female? Why do couples separate because "the wife could not bear a male child just females"? Why do we place much emphasis on training the male child than a female child? A woman is a special being and should be treated as one. Although she is considered as a weaker vessel but she has been a source of strength...
