5 Sure Ways of Becoming a Woman of Worth

Rome, they say was not built in a day. It took a great while for the city of Rome to be established. Becoming a woman of worth is not attained by sudden flight, you must prune yourself into becoming one. However, the journey of a thousand miles start with a step and with consistency, it is accomplished.  Now that you're not married, what kind of woman would you become in marriage? It's either marriage brings out the best in you or it reveals your worse.  Who's a woman of worth? A woman of worth is a celebrity but not all female celebrities are worthy of emulation. She's a celebrity because her price is far above rubies. She didn't make her way into greatness through using what her mama gave her, through discipline, determination, courage and purpose; she became known.  A woman of worth in a family is far better than dozens of women whose price can be named. She's closely related to the woman described in Proverbs 31 because they ...

I won't be talking about medical science but rather I'd be unraveling mysteries to you about your relationship health and life.

Don't Give Him An Inch

Who do you think I'm referring to? Can you guess? Anyways, it's not what you think - your boyfriend. Nay! But the person is close to you even than your boyfriend or girlfriend.  There are many people in life who have given him an inch in life, and the outcome of their lives were catastrophic. He is so smart that he exercise his influence in the life of all those who gives him an inch in their lives and relationship.  He can enter into your boyfriend, girlfriend or anyone close to get into your life. When you give him an inch, he becomes a ruler in your life and it'll be difficult for you to get him out. It's easy for a king to be enthroned but very difficult to get him out of the throne.  Who is the person?  He's the devil. Satan. Call him all the names you can. Oftentimes people blame the devil in life for their misdeeds. But is the devil to be blamed?  You can't blame the devil for what you did if you haven't given him an...

The Power Of Saying No

In elementary science, we were taught that power is defined as the ability to do work. Do you still remember? And there are different forms of power. I'm not writing about science but something greater than science.  Oftentimes in life, many people lack the ability to stand firm for what is right but choose to please others at the expense of their own lives. Failure to know and do what is right will lead you to being used to accomplish what is wrong.  Do you know that your ability to say No in life will deliver you from lots of trouble? The inability of some ladies to say No has led them to becoming victims of abortions, unwanted pregnancy, premarital sex, sexual immoralities, extramarital affairs and other vices.  A lot of young guys with promising future had kept the company of wrong friends and have their destinies destroyed because they cannot say No to vain persons.  Do you have the power to say NO? The power to say NO is ...

Don't Go Out Of The Kingdom! (For Christian Sisters)

The story was told of a beautiful young lady who on a fateful evening, went to see the damsels of the country where she lived. It was an unusual practice for her because they were sojourners in that country.  When she got out of their territory to the country, the Prince of the land saw her where she was playing with the daughters of the land and he fell in love with her. It was lust at first sight. However, it was an abomination for such to happen because they have whom they're eligible to marry or associate with and their own culture was different from theirs.  Having saw her, he raped her because he was unable to control his sexual urge and she was defiled. When her brothers got a wind of what happened, they were angry and retaliated but it was too late because the deed has been done.  You might be familiar with this story if you're a student of the Bible. But there are truths to glean from this especially for Christian sisters. 1. Don...

What Happens When A Lady Doesn't Know Who She is

If I would have to write another title for this article, I'd rather title it " The Problem of Identity Crisis Most Ladies Suffer ". The problem of women today is not because men are bad or evil, the problem of women is their failure to identify who they are. The evil that most men do to women in a relationship is because women gave them the opportunity to do so. How can he break your heart when you know who you are and where your heart ought to be? How can he use and dump you if you understand what your purpose is in life? Stop complaining that men are wicked, there are wicked ones but when you're wise and smart enough, you won't fall into the trap of the wicked ones. Wisdom they say is a defense, get wisdom in all your gettings. When you as a lady doesn't know who you are, you need no psychologist to tell you that you suffer from identity crisis. And these are common traits that happens when you don't know who you are as a lad...

Understanding Sex: A Two-way Approach

A glass of water can either be seen as half full or half empty, perception is key. However, your perception about a thing determines your knowledge of it. There are two dimensions to sex, I mean sexual intercourse or every activity leading to sexual intimacy can be understood based on the lens with which you choose to see it.

The Tragedy of Unequal Yoke in Relationships

"I wish I never met Paul, my life won't have become what it is today", she expressed bitterly in tears. Janet was brought up from a good Christian family where the word of God was taught. She was well mannered, God-fearing and obedient until the time she walked into a love relationship with Paul. Few months into her boarding school, she met this handsome boy named Paul. She was in SS2 while he was in SS3 and they usually meet during prep. Paul claimed to be a Christian but along the line, he convinced Janet that some Christian values are too impracticable in that they're meant for those who are older. He went further to lure her into some activities in the sense that God understands our weakness. Few months into their relationship, they started staying late together in dark places, love letters were exchanged to express their sensual affection as they both strolled in the corridor of sin. He drew away her attention from other mal...
