Dating unbelievers be like...

Is it possible that a man love you and still cheat? 
I watched a video sometime back of a man who said he would be head over heels in love with a woman and still betray her trust sexually. He added that female infidelity is much more disgusting than male infidelity. Click here to watch the video 
             
                      .   .   .  . 

I think these types of opinions are what we get when:
1. We keep championing stereotypes
2. We date/marry an unbeliever.

I'll write on the second point today and one day I'll get to speak on how much harm stereotypes has done to us as a society. 

Follow me closely.

People often ask the question "what is Love? " Which is a fair question honestly but nevertheless, a question that can never really accurately explain or describe Love. 

Which means while I understand what they are inquiring about when people ask "What is Love" My reply would most times slightly modify the question because Love is more than a "what". 
                       . . . .

Love is a "who" 
This brings me to the popular scripture 1 John 4:7-8 which amongst other things, lets us know that God is Love.

If this true and we know it is, that God is love, how then do you expect a person who doesn't know who God is to love you. 
"Expressing Love and being born of God is one package"

So know this- a person who doesn't know God cannot love you for what love really is. You would be settling for a version of love that is incomplete and unwholesome. 
Why do that when you can get the complete package and this is what God wants to give you. A partner that will love you as our Heavenly Father intends.

We can only love because God first loved us and as we have been loved, then we can love. I'm deliberately not going to be detailed in this post but I sincerely hope we understand the message. 
No one can Love for what Love truly is, outside God. God is love.

So back to the man on the video... He mentioned being able to cheat while head over hills in love with a woman.

This is only happens when you settle for the definition of "love" by the worlds standard. Because a person who has met the person of "love", and has accepted and experienced the Love of God, would not make that comment. And still have the audacity to claim to "love" the woman he cheats on. 
Love does not do that!!!

The psychological effect of the ongoing strike on a Nigerian Student by OLUWATOSIN AKINNUOYE

LET ME BE PAUL; THE DEPRESSED Paul the apostle wrote letters of encouragement to the body of Christ. However, this piece may not totally be an article of encouragement to the students and whoever this reaches to, you may rather tag it ‘a note on how I feel’.  In the past 5 months and even today, I'm depressed but I realized that many young persons in Nigeria feel this same way, especially university students.    When the ongoing strike was announced some months back, I felt bad, but hopeful as it was tagged "warning strike", I saw it as a luxury opportunity to explore details on my research work. I keep wanting to avoid social media, considering how almost every update on my timeline, starting with Facebook all reads of my junior class Mates back at Secondary School who are signing out from their undergraduate level, signing into NYSC (“answering the Clarion call”), others having their Passing Out Parades etc. Let's not even mention how far my mates have gone.

Dreams!! Plans!! Two sides of a coin

... taking action steps towards the life you desire. We all have amazing dreams and visions on where we want to be and what we want to be doing in the future. It's beautiful to think about, it's beautiful to dream about. Having and writing down these extraordinary goals is the first step and a very essential step towards the life we desire. The mistake we all make sometimes is having a vision for where we want to see ourselves in a couple of years from now but no plan, road map or action to get there.  What are you doing today that will further propel you towards your dreams and aspirations?  It's not just about desiring to be a CEO with many employees like Mark Zuckerberg or Elon Musk, it's what am I doing today to prepare myself for that reality? How many leadership conferences have you attended? How much can you spare for a leadership course? What are your best reads on the subject? How intentional are you about growing your financial IQ? What I'm sa...
