To Have Eye for You

Hi there,

Its curious really, is it not? I mean the way we still play out the Cain and Abel situation in our days.

I was just reading the passage again and, thinking about it, I see how all over the world today we still make Cain’s mistake.

Which is – if God was not cool with us when Abel was around He most certainly would be more pissed off when He discovers we did- Abel- in so we would make Him have eye for us.

How dumb!

‘If you do well, would you not be recognized’ He told Cain.

Family squabbles, political assassination, place of work back-biting and politics, friendship character assassination are just some of the ways we play out the Cain and Abel tragedy in the desperate bid to find favor with the one whom we think matters.

Well, you know God was not fooled back then and He sure is still not fooled today. Although, Cain cut short the life of his brother, he got worse than he desired; as he groaned “This punishment is too much for me to bear”.

For us today, we now know that what goes around comes around, or at least some of us do. It will never pay you to make tombstones for the purpose of elevating yourself.

Compliments of the season

Hi!
Great to see you. Compliments of the season. I've been trying to clean up my blog all day. Make it better for you to enjoy next time you call.
I really want to thank you all for patronising me these teething months. I promise you I'll get better. You've all been good to me, you who have stopped here to read or just to view my page. Thanks.
May the coming days, months and years bring us blessings and see us better at what we do and greater through that.
Thanks again.

How much of Your secret thoughts would You dare share?

Forgive me for not appearing so savvy as to what this blog thing is all about.
I really loved the idea when I got the notion it was to do with my expressing my thought. I seem to live most in my thoughts, so that was great, I felt.
Again, I could say what I feel about things I ordinarily would not be in position to say squat about and luckily someone far away would ' hear ' me .
In these past months I have found out that senses of maturity and responsibility kind of inhibit the full exercise of this privilege, as I see it. So, how much of my private thoughts would I really be willing to share without embarrassing myself, or even rocking the boat of state?!
As in the case of the two policemen I passed the other day at a checking-point early one morning : yawning - from fatigue or from sleeplessness, or from hangover, or from hunger, most certainly, over-work would be one of the reasons. Yet, these were heads of homes, in the name of God! What kind of symbols are we making them into for their off-springs?
Nigeria ,you do deserve what you are getting! You always want something for nothing, it seems .
Even our not-so-well endowed neighbours have things better put in place and working than we do.
We are so poor and greedy that we rarely think of the greater good of all in the actions we often take.
Or, perhaps, we are not a thinking nation!?
