LONE RANGER BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA


LONE RANGER BY OLUWABUNMI AREGBESOLA

Reflection :
I remember while I was in secondary school, there was this girl in my class. She wouldn't relate with anybody. She would always be on her own, like a recluse. Even though she is passing through hell, she wouldn't open up to anybody. We were all surprised when we heard she was impregnated.


And let us consider and give attention, continuous care, to watching over one another, studying how we may stir up(stimulate and incite) to love and to helpful deeds and noble activities, not forsaking or neglecting to assemble together(as believers), as is the habit of some people, but admonishing (warning, urging and encouraging)one another, and all the not faithfully as you see the day approaching. (Hebrews 10:24-25)


If God wanted you to live a solitary life, he would have made you alone to inhabit this earth.
Imagine you are the only one treading this journey, just imagine how boring everything will look like.


Show me a man who says he could finish his assignment all alone and I will show you a man who is a failure.
Every successful man of God you see, he is not a lone ranger. He has good company.


Loneliness kills! Mingle with the brethren.
Don't be a lone ranger.
You need others to survive.

I know I would have made some silly mistakes during my darkest hour but for the godly counsel of the brethren, they were
prevented.


As we journey through this life, we meet different people who will in one way or the other help us.
This life would be a better place if we know we need one another.
Stop living a solitary life.


Don't isolate yourself from the brethren.(Hebrews 10:24-25)
Open up and let people help you.
Don't die in silence.
You are not a lone ranger.
Surround yourself with like minds.
Don't tread this journey alone.
Even Jesus had disciples He walked with. Who do you want to take after if you are a lone ranger?


But also remember, bad company corrupts good manners (1corithians 15:33)
Cut off from bad friends for they will mar you and make your life useless.
Cut off from ungodly relationships.

THREE TYPES OF WOMEN (CHAPTER SIX)

PREPARING TO BE A HELP MEET BY DEBI PEARL Moral to the story : Learn and live well.  A caution: Stubbornness shuts the door on understanding..  The BIG Question :What type of man best suits me?  The reason a good portion of your thoughts are wrapped up in thinking about certain men and the hopes of marriage is because you were hard-wired with the overwhelming need to be a wife and mother. It is a God-given need that only a man can fulfill. I can't think of one thing I would rather have than a man to really love me. It is supreme. A lovely person is easy to love. That is our goal. God wants us to make you become a lovely help meet. To be a good one takes effortā€¦ lots of effort.  In this chapter, Debi Pearl outlined the different types of women we have: Dreamer gal, Servant girl, Go-to Gals. Dreamer girl  A dreamer girl needs to know how to balance work with family or else she will sway from her responsibility to honour her ...

THE KID'S LOVE STORY (CHAPTER 1)

PREPARING TO BE A HELP MEET BY DEBI PEARL  THE KID'S LOVE STORY (CHAPTER 1) Moral to the story: God wants, no, He needs us to pray.  CAUTION: Don't pray amiss.  The kid's love story is that of the author herself; Debi Pearl. She had just turned 13 when she first saw her man in a program  and immediately she knew he was the right one for her. Of course the man didn't notice her not until many years later. Why would God bypass a guy of at least 21 years old, and come to a kid of 13 years old telling her he was the one she was going to marry. Sounds weird right?  God does not do anything without a reason. He is the God who knows the end, right from the beginning.  When the young Debi got home, she told her mum, and her mum began to follow her up to always pray for the man of God. The young Debi took it upon herself, praying for the man of God. She wasn't praying to be his wife, neither was she praying for him to notice her. She...

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER For those who are so close to me, they will know I rarely mention my Dad. He's alive and healthy.  I grew up not knowing my Dad. I grew up not knowing what fatherly love meant. My Dad is very much alive but we are far from each other. I was around 11 years or so before he came looking for me. First of all, I am grateful to God for giving me my mum. She went through a lot raising me.  So, while I was growing up, I envied those who talked about their dad so much. I wish I could be like them. I wish I could have someone who would be able to show me love. I didn't know fatherly love not until when I met my Spiritual father in Ibadan in 2010. He received me with open arms.  For several years, I lived with hurt and hatred in my heart. I cried bitterly most times when I reminisce about so many things.  A day came when I heard God said to me"For this reason were you separated from your mother's womb, you are not accidental...
