YOU ARE A WOMAN NOT A SLAVE Written by Nana Kyereh

You are a woman and not a slave. You are the greatest and the sweetest gift GOD gave to life. Stop complaining about how you were used and dumped. No one can take advantage of you without your consent. The best way to learn is from other people's mistake in life. Its more costly and more painful to learn from your own mistakes in life.

The greatest mistake any woman can make in a relationship is to permanently put her life on hold because of love. Of course sacrificing is a must if you want a home. Compromising in a relationship is a two way traffic, always make sure you are not always at the loose end. Never loose yourself while searching for a soul mate in life. Both of you must come to a conclusion that favours the two you. Relationship is not a career and marriage is not a job. Never stop working because you are married. If your husband is super rich and asked you to stop working make sure you have direct access to his assets and cash. Life is full of ups and downs anything can happen to anybody at any points in life. A rich man can become broke and a very hard working man may loose his job. Change is the most constant thing in life.

Many women are living a painful matrimonial life today because they are stuck with a man who treat them like trash, because he knows they have no other means of livelihood apart from him. Decision making can be very difficult if you are 100% relying on a man for everything in life. It's ok to support your man to be successful, but that doesn't mean you should put your own life on permanent hold.

CHOOSE WHAT SUITS YOU

_Smith and Lara have been dating for just six months. Smith finds her very beautiful and a lovely lady but there is one problem he has: Lara is too expensive to keep. In the period of six months, he has almost spent all his savings. Now he is worried that as soon as he runs out of money, he will lose Lara._

Many young men keep complaining about the life style of ladies in today's society. Most of them claim the ladies are materialistic. If you don't have money, you can't get them. We have many ladies and gentlemen like that who only enter into a relationship for their own benefits.
These kind of people only date certain kind of people who fits their agenda and purpose. And to those ladies in this category, they prefer rich guys who can meet their needs.
As odd and bad as this may seem, it's perfectly normal and there's nothing wrong with it. We all as humans have preferences. Under normal circumstances, some ladies prefer fair guys over dark ones. Some prefer tall guys. Some like muscular guys, others prefer those with beards and a hairy body.

Men on the other hand also have their preferences. Some like thick and tall ladies. Others prefer only fair ladies whiles others will avoid fair ladies and choose a dark one. Most like women with big breasts or big bottoms with curves.
All these are normal because we are all different and unique in our own ways. God in His infinite wisdom also made humans of different types, shapes and sizes. So whether dark or fair, tall or short, thick or thin, hairy or hairless, there is someone out there who prefers them to the others.
It is in this same categorization that some ladies prefer rich guys over up and coming guys who are now trying to make it. That's their preference and you can't blame them.
The problem lies with the men who choose to have what they can't have or shouldn't have.

When you go to a boutique to buy shoes, you buy the one that fits you. Just because an extra large shoe in the corner is more beautiful doesn't mean you should buy that one. It won't fit your feet and it will be a waste of time, money and resources.

The same thing happens when you choose someone you shouldn't. If she prefers a rich guy and you are not rich, look for another lady whose preference is not a rich guy.
There are many ladies who fits what you need. Look for them and stop blaming all ladies, because even the guys also have their preferences.

Choose the person that suits you and you will enjoy your relationship. She may not be packaged as you expected but she will be what you need! Stay focused and choose well.

SERVE GOD NO MATTER WHAT

SERVE GOD NO MATTER WHAT HAPPENS

JOB 1:9-11

9 So Satan answered the Lord and said, "Does Job fear God for nothing? 10 Have You not made a hedge around him, around his household, and around all that he has on every side? You have blessed the work of his hands, and his possessions have increased in the land. 11 But now, stretch out Your hand and touch all that he has, and he will surely curse You to Your face!" NKJV

    The devil thought that it was because God has blessed Job and is protecting him that was why Job was worshipping and serving God but although Job complained a lot, he still proved the devil wrong. He stayed faithful to God even when he lost everything in life. He stayed faithful even when he was in pain caused by the sickness the devil inflicted on him. Job remained faithful to God.

    That is how faithful we should be as Christians. In good or bad times, we should remain faithful to God and trust Him most. We should continue to serve in His vineyard and continue to do what we were created to do: to worship Him.

   

Dan 6:4-13

4 So the governors and satraps sought to find some charge against Daniel concerning the kingdom; but they could find no charge or fault, because he was faithful; nor was there any error or fault found in him. 5 Then these men said, "We shall not find any charge against this Daniel unless we find it against him concerning the law of his God."

6 So these governors and satraps thronged before the king, and said thus to him:"King Darius, live forever! 7 All the governors of the kingdom, the administrators and satraps, the counselors and advisors, have consulted together to establish a royal statute and to make a firm decree, that whoever petitions any god or man for thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions. 8 Now, O king, establish the decree and sign the writing, so that it cannot be changed, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which does not alter." 9 Therefore King Darius signed the written decree.

10 Now when Daniel knew that the writing was signed, he went home. And in his upper room, with his windows open toward Jerusalem, he knelt down on his knees three times that day, and prayed and gave thanks before his God, as was his custom since early days.

11 Then these men assembled and found Daniel praying and making supplication before his God. 12 And they went before the king, and spoke concerning the king's decree: "Have you not signed a decree that every man who petitions any god or man within thirty days, except you, O king, shall be cast into the den of lions?"

The king answered and said, "The thing is true, according to the law of the Medes and Persians, which does not alter."

13 So they answered and said before the king, "That Daniel, who is one of the captives* from Judah, does not show due regard for you, O king, or for the decree that you have signed, but makes his petition three times a day."  NKJV 

Daniel never stopped being faithful to God when he started facing crises. When the other leaders were against him serving God, he still served and prayed to God.

    In the end, both Job and Daniel were vindicated and glorified by God once again. 

    Another example is Paul. Even in prison, he still saw a big God he serves (Acts 21). Stephen, at the point of death was still worshipping God. The list can go on and on but all I want to say is, never give up in serving God (Isaiah 3:10)

    Bible records in 1 Corinthians 15:58 that our labor in Him will never be in vain. Our father in heaven sees everything and acknowledges our effort in Him and He is a faithful God who appreciates every good work done. At the appointed time, He will surely reward you for your service to Him. 1 Thessalonians 5:24 says He who called you is faithful, He will do it.
