True Humanity

our Humanity lies in letting our hearts out, allowing our voices be heard and truly expressing ourselves in any and everyway.

God expects us to lead an  exemplary life for the unbelievers to see, and this entails working for yourself and living at peace as much as possible.
For me this is something that spurs me on to  hard work and so i work as hard as possible so that I may represent Jesus Christ Correctly. In Nigeria a popular saying is that Hard work  doesn't  kill it is laziness that does.
Do all you can to live a peaceful life, also means avoid all the thinks you need to avoid to live a peaceful life.

Knowledge and Persuassion

People do the wrong things because they dont know the right things or because they are not fully persuaded that the right thing is the right thing      - David Rotimi

Knowledge, Happiness and God's Wisdom

       I always want to be Happy but I see that  every time  I acquire more knowledge, I feel  more burdened and sometimes it makes me almost go crazy, the thing is when you know more, you tend to think more, and the more you think the more frustrated you get when you  don't  seem to be  getting the correct analysis of the subject matter at hand. The funny thing is somethings are not just explainable but the Human Nature is Curious so we still try to figure them out. I've learnt that somethings are just there to show that God is greater than us.

       The Bible talks about it in Ecc 1:18  With much wisdom comes frustration. The one who gains more wisdom also gains more sorrow.

Perception

The things we see are not always the way they seem to be.                                        - David Rotimi

Humans and Our Mindset


Now I know that people are a product of their experiences. I've met people this season and their opinions about things i know about really shows that our mindset affects our perception and approach to lifes' circumstances. So trying to make everybody see things the way you see them is very difficult.
The things is even in the churh of God people still see thungs defferently because of their individual backgrounds and cultures. How can the church be united if She if full of people that think differently? The solution is in the Bible. It says in Rom 12:2  Don't change yourselves to be like the people of this world, but let God change you inside with a new way of thinking. Then you will be able to understand and accept what God wants for you. You will be able to know what is good and pleasing to him and what is perfect. Of course we grew up in the world so we are already like the world, our mind works in the way the world has programed it to be overtime so th eresponsibility is for us to change our way of thinking by accepting God's word. The king james says that we should be transfomed by the renewing of our minds. that means that we have to erase our former thinking patterns and align it with what God's word says, I think that once a person can achieve this, Spirituality becomes very enjoyable.  I believe that this cannot happen at once, it takes a continuous process, but God's grace is always available.

Emotions

You know its a different thing if we knew how to  control  who we have feelings for and who we do not want to, the sad thing is sometimes it makes you act  very funny not the way you really want to, for reasons you cant place your fingers, seems  like your thinking is not as straight as it use to be or even straighter than it use to be sometimes. The Bottom line is no matter how many people we may have special feelings for, we must be able  to control our feelings after we discover they are there, so  we do not entangle peoples' emotions unnecessarily and break their heart by the words we said that we  didn't  mean or our emotions pushed us to say without thinking well.
