The Perfect Monday Syndrome... How true?

Hello people. I came up with this write-up this morning. Read and Enjoy, and drop your comments once you're done. Thanks. ................................................................... How true is the myth that once you start off your monday on a "funny/wrong" note, the rest of the days of the week are likely to turn out the same way? It's a beautiful but extremely cold Wednesday here in South-Western Nigeria. I woke up quite late, hurried to prepare breakfast for everyone, do some kitchen cleaning; before going to the bathroom. I decided to do a brief laundry too. By the time I was done getting all set for work, I was already so late. I have this sweet neighbour that drops me off at work. She was already late too, but I delayed her the more, as I had forgotten to pick so many things that I'd be needing for the day at work. I had to go back a couple of times to pick my wig and gown, get my packed food (thanks to my sister), pick up my wallet... And ye

START STIRRING... AND DON'T STOP! (2)

Hello beautiful people. Hope you're heeding my advise of keeping warm this season? Here's the continuation of the series I started earlier today. Read and be blessed! START STIRRING... AND DON'T STOP! (2) 'A gift is as a precious stone in the eyes of him that hath it: whithersoever it turneth , it prospereth (wherever it turns, it prospers).'

Hello people. It's the festive season again. The weather is changing; and it's often the first pointer to the Christmas period. I believe you're doing all you can to stay warm. Please do stay warm; and read through the series I'd be sharing with you in the last few days of this amazing year. I have this really cool friend that shares amazing devotional write-ups with me, and most times I can't keep the things I gain from them to myself. So I've decided to start my christmas giving by sharing them with you. Have a fab time reading through. Merry Christmas y'all. START STIRRING... AND DON'T STOP! (1) '...Stir up the gift of God...in you...' 2 Timothy 1:6 God gave you your talent, but it's your job to develop it. And it's not that complicated, because your gift usually relates to something that excites you. Think about it: God made you; He hardwired the desires of your heart. Knowing that helps you to understand why the things yo
