Fight to keep your marriage

ARE YOU IN COURTSHIP??? Written By: Lizzy Oyebola Oyekunle My name is Kate and I am a medical doctor. I am married to a very loving man called Kelvin. He is a teacher so he gets back home before me most days. He takes care of the children, cooks and takes care of the house whenever I am on call. To me, he is the perfect definition of a great man! And a very great counsellor! Four months ago, Rachael, my best friend from secondary school contacted me that she had an issue getting relationships right. She was crying all day on the phone and I just couldn’t bear it as I was so sleepy. I sent her my husband’s contact so she could talk to him instead.

It bows very low when the evil wind is blowing and when it is over , it stands erect again. Some other trees that haven't this wisdom stand erect while the evil wind is blowing and are felled. At last, it is the meek that inherits the earth! In April 10, 2017, the Governor of United States of Alab...

Living water

THE LIVING WATER DAILY DEVOTIONAL GUIDE Saturday, November 10, 2018 TOPIC: LONELY HOUR Read: Deuteronomy 31:1-8 MEMORISE: Be strong and of good courage, do not fear nor be afraid of them; for the LORD your God, He is the One who goes with you. He will not leave you nor forsake you (Deuteronomy 31:6). EXPOSITION Loneliness is a powerful emotion. It can lead to despair, or it can draw us closer to the Lord. It is also a condition for which we were never designed. From the very beginning, God said that, it was not good for the man to be alone (Gen. 2:18). So, He created Eve. Then came sin, the separator. Ever since, we have been trying to regain the intimate fellowship that was lost in the Garden of Eden. Most of us start this journey to recovery by seeking healthy connections with other people. Friends and family can help enormously, but their presence is no substitute for fellowship with the heavenly Father. In fact, our best friends can sometimes impede our efforts by appearing ...
