HAPPINESS, A POSITIVE EMOTION

This is the kind of Emotion that springs out of perceived feeling of Joy. When the feeling of Joy touches the heart, the outer reaction of it is happiness. Happiness is a reaction to the percieved feeling of Joy. 
   Joy is a signal of being satisfied and safe. When your heart desires are satisfied, you feel safe and cool and that touch of joy gives you a smiling face. Happiness can heal broken hearts and it gives Strength to the weary. Happiness like other kinds of Emotion is a natural feeling that is beneficial to man's health.
    The basic key to happiness is being always happy.
The question is, seeing the various challenges encountered on daily bases, is it possible for man to be always happy?
     Yes of course, man can keep the positive Emotion on every time, infact it is an antidote to sadness. But, happiness stems from satisfaction. Meaning, if your desires are not satisfied, your Joy can not be full.
Know this truth that, nothing in this world can satisfy man, in other words, Man can not find his satisfaction in the world, not even in marriage, success in career, job.  All of these can not answer the needs of true satisfaction of man. Although man rejoices at it when achieved, but there will always be an hollow for more.  Hence, there is one thing, one thing in which man can find a full expression of satisfaction, it brings joy to man and fills the hollow of more. This one thing is "Walking with God".
     Walk with God. It is only your walk with God that brings true Joy from which happiness is sourced. Happiness obtained from any material or worldly satisfaction is for a moment, but to be always happy, you need a WALK with God.
    Your walk with God in the light of the Holy Spirit is full of joy. It takes your attention away from every difficulties and challenges and you'll be amazed that you are always happy despite all!

THE MIRROR: IDENTITY AND SELFHOOD

Identity. It’s the essence of who you are—your personality, the core of your being. Selfhood, on the other hand, is the expression of that identity, the way you present yourself to the world. Think back to a time when you had to show your identity card. Do you remember the reaction of the person you handed it to? Likely, they nodded in approval, having seen all the necessary information about you on that card. Your identity, in that moment, was defined by the details captured on that small piece of plastic. But identity is more than just what's written on a card. It’s how you define yourself and how others perceive you. It’s the name you give yourself, the image you project, and the way people recognize you. Selfhood is often conveyed through three key aspects: - Dressing (Your Appearance) - Actions (What You Do and How You Do It) - Speech (The Words You Speak and How You Utter Them)  Dressing (Your Appearance) There’s a common saying: "Appearance shows the manner."

The Greatest Goal

When the ball enters the net, they say it's a goal! And the loosing team feel defeated forgetting that they've got the greatest goal.  Same to a man who has all his goals lain down and strategically pulling his efforts towards the goal but to realize at the end that, his goals can't be achieved, for known or unknown reasons. He looses strength. At times, he can feel like it's over. But the truth remains that it's not over until it is over. He's got the greatest goal.       Really, a goal is the achievement toward which effort is directed. And billions are the "I want to", "by God's grace I will", "in fact, I must" in the speeches of every man, especially at the beginning of every matter, but strength wanes and the story changes maybe in the middle of the road. Because all efforts put towards the achievement of the goals seem to be less affective. The truth is, no man has control over whatever happens and will happen....

The Best Way To Fight Against Poverty

Poverty simply means lack of basic necessities of life. It means being poor in a specific aspect. Meaning that, one could be poor financially (Financial Poverty), spiritually (Spiritual Poverty), intellectually (Intellectual Poverty), morally (Moral Poverty). Appearantly, the major focus of the world is financial poverty. You are seen as being poor when you are broke. However, being broke is not the source nor the head of poverty. A man may be financially poor but intellectually, spiritually and morally rich. I often say it that, "money is not all man needs for life". So, if all you have or crave for is money, you are still a pauper. Financial Poverty is one of the strongest tools of the devil to win people into his kingdom. It is so strong that, even the so called "annointed of the Lord" are falling into the devil's trap through the tool.  Our society, especially a country like Nigeria where majority of the citizens are subjected to financial povert...
