ON ABUSE

-

While physical/sexual abuse appears to be one of the most prevalent and obvious forms of abuse, there are also toxic traits/ behavior in people that turn out to abuse others verbally, emotionally, psychologically. These are also things to watch out for.

Even without hitting you or being violent, a person can damage your sense of esteem and self worth.

And this applies to other relationships, not just romantic/love relationships.

They belittle your accomplishments, they never have any encouraging thing to say, they address you with derogatory words,  they take delight in humiliating you in public, they cut you off from the relationships you have with other people,  manipulative behavior etc..

When things like this happen over and over and over and over again, it is abusive.


And the thing is, a vast majority of us have experienced some level of psychological abuse from either an adult family member, guardian, teacher, peers or any other person when we were much younger. Whether it was intentional or not. I can relate to this.

That is why at this point, what you need is not someone that will add insult to injury. You should not surround yourself with a person or people that will further dampen an esteem that you are working to build again.


Don't continually be with persons who always spread negative energy. Listening to negative words all the time can poison your mind and dampen your confidence.

And the interesting thing is that this form of abuse is very subtle. They don't leave physical scars but has killed a lot of voices we should be hearing today.

As much as we are making sure to stay away from negative energy, it's important that we  are also working on ourselves constantly to spread positive energy and not add to the level of toxicity that exists already.

As much as you are watching out for red flags, sha make sure say you sef no be red flag. 

My point -- no one is saying we have to be perfect, but we all have to deliberately work on building good character. 


If you need a guide that can help you improve confidence and self-esteem, you should read A Chat With A Skinny Girl by TG John. I have read it and it blessed me. You can send a message to get the book. It is FREE. 😊

With so much love,

I invite you today to accept Jesus Christ into your heart, if you have not. He loves you. And he wants you to radiate beauty and fulfill purpose. All you have to do is believe in your heart and confess with your mouth that God raised him from the dead to give you eternal life. Say this with me. 👇

"Lord Jesus, I come before you today. I believe and confess that you died for me and rose again to give me eternal life.  Thank you for coming into my life. Thank you for forgiving my sin. Thank you for saving me. I am born again. I am saved. I am a child of God in Jesus name, Amen.

If you said this short prayer, congratulations! You are a new creation in Christ Jesus.

Please send me a message. I will be glad to talk and pray with you.😊

AMPLIFY YOUR STRENGTHS!

-
It is true that every human is blessed with certain gifts, strengths, unique abilities and is created for a purpose. In fact, we hear it again and again through the numerous seminars, conferences and teachings that we have attended (and will still attend), that we all have strengths and potentials that are peculiar to each of us. It is one thing to hear and know that we have all of these within us; it is something entirely different for our eyes to be opened to them. Some of us have entered into the room of self-discovery and are beginning to find out some interesting things about ourselves. Yet, quite a number of us do not see our strengths and have concluded that we carry nothing special. So, we begin to think that probably God did not give gifts to everyone afterall.  I have been there myself, and I know how frustrating that can be. We give so much time to looking at what others can do well and give little or no attention to the things we can do effortlessly. Our strengths lie i...

MY JOURNEY (1)

-
I left the examination hall that afternoon with so much anxiety. I just hoped that everything would eventually turn out fine. The aggregate score of each candidate for the examination would be sent via a text message the next morning.  Those who knew me well, understood that I never joked with having a good sleep. But this time, I kept rolling from one end of the bed to the other as it was quite difficult for me to sleep. All that went through my head were thoughts of what I would score in the examination.  At exactly 7am, my phone vibrated as it would when a text message was delivered. I was so certain that it was the message containing the result. I rushed to pick up my phone on the table beside the bed, and there it was. “Recharge N400 and get up to N1000 worth of airtime. Dial bla bla bla…” I did not bother to read the rest of the message. I was waiting to receive a message from JAMB not some mobile network. I let out a long hiss as  I dropped the phone on the bed i...

THAT IT APPEARS GOOD DOES NOT MAKE IT RIGHT

-
It's my first post of the year, and I'm glad I get to give you this as my little birthday gift! I appreciate the love showered on me on my birthday yesterday. I'm grateful for you! If you are new here, welcome!😊 Let's get right into it! . . . Now, God is ever willing to lead us aright. And this is why he has given us the Holy Spirit to dwell in us. See what Jesus says here in John 14:16‭-‬17 (EASY) 👇 "I will ask the Father to help you with this. He will send another Helper to be with you. That Helper will stay with you always. He is God's Spirit, and he shows you what is true...." The Holy Spirit shows us what is true. But sometimes we do not enquire to know the mind of God concerning certain situations. We depend on what we think is the right way. That it appears good does not make it right.  That's why the Bible tells us not to lean on our understanding. See👇 Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; And lean not unto thine own understanding. In all...
