WHAT MONEY WON’T…?

Money won’t buy you appetite, the best it can do is buy you food.Money won’t buy you protection, the best it can do is get you security.Money will get you the best of phones, but can’t get you the voice to speak into them.Money can buy you noiselessness, but it can't  buy you peace.Money can get you a doctor, but it can’t get you healing.Money can get you clothes forever, but it can’t cover your shame forever.Money has got its own limit, this fact many refuse to acknowledge and it has brought them massive shame and embarrassment.The saying is true “Everyman has got a price, but not everything that is called a price answers to money”.For what is food without appetite?For what is security without safety?For importance is silence without peace?Money will get you a very robust public image, but cannot change that tiny thing in your private life.Money will buy you happiness, but the price of joy is far beyond its reach.Money will buy you the Bible, but not the salvation therein.Money will build you the church, but cannot bring down the God. And for what essence is the church without its God?Hence, we must be careful to distinguish and not trade the things money can buy with the ones beyond the reach and ability of money. Money has got limits to its power, stay aware!AKOGUN OLALEKAN(C) 2012.Facebook: Akogun OlalekanTwitter: @Olalekanakogunwww.olalekanakogun.blogspot.com+2348034780274

That (il)legal Tender.

"A huge number of humans have their Truth-Reserve/account either fat or static. We rarely withdraw nor spend from it, and will rather run life's transactions with that (il)legal tender, LIES". -TW™ Its not so amazing today how accepted, tolerated, and infact enjoyed (in the actual sense) lies are. Little wonder I chose to coin it as "(il)legal Tender". Illegal tender in every sense of it, yet legal tender judging by the widespread acceptance and employment of it. Why Account? Account owing to the fact that we know the truth, identify it, gather it, but yet fail to employ it, resulting to a mere build up (Account/Reserve) in our hearts, while refusing to spend/transact with it. Note: Truth spent yields even more dividends that truth stored. Why Lie? The "cover my/your arse" mentality/syndrome has taken the good-life over from us, I wonder why on God's earth we left our arses open in the first place, and who told us lies truly covers anyone'

"Meanings Make The Man, His Definitions Define Him"

"Its difficult, if not impossible to respond beyond your heart". How do I mean? "Your conceived, derived and/or imbibed idea of thing, defines your attitude towards it"-TW™ You've always wondered why you act the way you do, react the way you do, or respond to things the way you do. Hey, am not talking temperaments here, the boss (Tim Lahaye) already did, and he "took it to the cleaners'. Even in deceit, its a hard thing to behave/respond to a thing beyond what you think about it, know about it, and the values you have placed on it. Catching a golden mug falling directly towards your head for example is a scenario that captures correctly an aspect of my discourse. There exist a couple of options to this, and believe me, every man could respond differently to this situation. One of the responses to expect, which I know you know already is; Catching the mug, preventing it from hitting your head or even the fall. Another response would be; completely do

You Didn't Deserve To Die, I Didn't Deserve Your Life.

"Though you knew the world won't receive you, you still gave your life to try. Wonderful Jesus, how can I fathom you!" -TW™ What a burden you chose to carry, what a load of Sin. Without my burden, you rode on a donkey, with mine and the whole world's upon you, you decided walking on your feet was better. What manner of man are you? You saw us kill you, yet you allowed it, for you, anything will do, just as long as it'll please the Father. The bruises and the stripes alone was good enough, if it was just about the shedding of blood, you gave it in good quantity through the torture suffered in the hands of the Roman soldiers, you really did not need to die. This was more, this was great, in fact, "Greater love than this no man can give". You paid it all, you laid your life, you paid the ultimate price that I might live. Rejected and abandoned, yet all you saw was me. Disgraced, crucified and killed for a crime you had no hand in, yet all you saw w
