  • Maradona : "Goalkeepers are afraid of Cristiano Ronaldo. Messi, not so much because he doesn't have Cristiano's power."

    "What I appreciate about Cristiano Ronaldo is that whenever the team needs him, he is always present, and be careful, this is something I haven’t seen since Cruyff."

  • GREAT WISDOM FOR VICTORIOUS LIVING.

    1. The less you say, the more your words will matter.
    Choose your words wisely. In a noisy world full of opinions, wisdom is often found in silence and thoughtful speech. Be known for words that uplift, not for words that merely fill the air.

    2. Don't take everything personally.
    People have their own battles and burdens. Most aren’t thinking about you as much as you think. Learn to let things go, and choose peace over unnecessary offense.

    3. Focus on possibilities, not problems.
    Your mindset shapes your destiny. A problem-focused life creates fear and limits, but a possibility-driven mind sees open doors in every difficulty. Be solution-oriented.

    4. Your struggle is shaping you.
    Pain is a part of growth. What you’re going through today might be the very thing that prepares you for what you prayed for tomorrow. Keep moving forward.

    5. There’s a reason behind every connection.
    Some people come to teach you, some to test you, and others to build you. And sometimes, you are sent into someone’s life for those same reasons. Learn to discern the difference.

    6. Dare to try new things.
    Staying in your comfort zone is easy, but greatness lives outside it. Explore, learn, and experience life beyond the familiar. Every risk carries a reward, even if it’s a lesson.

    7. Emotional pain is real.
    Being ignored by those you care about hurts. Acknowledge it, but don't let it control you. Build emotional resilience. Know your worth doesn't depend on anyone's attention.

    8. Appreciate moments while you have them.
    Today’s ordinary moments will become tomorrow’s treasured memories. Be fully present in your relationships, conversations, and experiences.

    9. Gratitude shifts your focus.
    When you start counting your blessings, your heart finds peace, and your eyes open to new opportunities. A grateful heart makes room for more.

    10. Control your words, control your life.
    Your future is shaped by what you speak. Speak life, hope, and purpose over yourself and others. Don’t let careless words ruin what discipline could have preserved.

    11. Life reflects your thoughts.
    Your mindset determines your outcome. If you see the world as hostile, you’ll live in fear. If you see it as filled with opportunities, you’ll find them.

    12. It's not what happens to you, but how you respond.
    Life is unpredictable. You can’t control everything, but you can control your attitude. A positive, faith-driven response will always position you for growth.

    13. You wake up to yourself every day.
    Be someone you respect when no one’s watching. Integrity and self-respect matter more than public approval.

    14. Acts from the heart bring the deepest joy.
    When you help, love, or serve with sincerity, the fulfillment you gain is priceless. Pursue what adds value to others.

    15. Your circle shapes your destiny.
    Surround yourself with people who inspire, challenge, and uplift you. If you walk with wise people, you’ll grow wiser. Choose relationships intentionally.

    16. Knowing yourself unlocks your potential.
    Self-awareness is a superpower. Understand your strengths, weaknesses, and passions. When you know who you are, you stop living for approval and start living with purpose.

    Final Thought for the Youth:
    You are living in a time of endless distractions and options. Wisdom is knowing what to hold on to, what to let go of, and what to reach for. Choose God, choose growth, and choose to live intentionally.

    “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” — Proverbs 4:7

    May God bless you, guide you, and cause you to thrive.

  • THESE HABITS WILL KEEP YOU BROKE FOREVER. BEWARE!

    Dear MEN,

    If you want to be a man who is in control of his life, respected, and financially secure, there are things you must never do when it comes to money.

    Your financial state as a man determines more than just your bank account—it affects your confidence, relationships, opportunities, and even your mental health.

    Too many men work hard but still end up broke. Why?
    Because making money is one thing, but keeping and growing it is another.

    If you don’t master your finances, you will always be at the mercy of another man.

    Here are the financial mistakes that will keep you weak, stuck, and struggling forever:

    1. Spending to Impress Instead of Investing to Progress:

    If you’re spending money just to look rich, you’re setting yourself up to stay broke.

    Research from the National Bureau of Economic Research shows that most wealthy people live below their means, while many middle-class and poor individuals spend more on luxury goods.

    The real flex is ownership. Assets. Investments. Skills that print money. Not designer clothes you can’t afford.

    2. Depending on One Source of Income:

    If your entire financial life depends on one paycheck or one business, you’re playing a dangerous game.

    The average millionaire has 7 sources of income—but most men have just one. If that one dries up, what happens? Panic. Struggle. Dependence.

    Start building multiple streams of income. Even if you have a job, learn a skill, start a side hustle, invest.

    3. Ignoring Financial Literacy:

    Money has rules, and if you don’t learn them, you’ll keep losing.

    A survey by the National Endowment for Financial Education found that about 70% of lottery winners go broke within a few years because they never understood how to manage wealth.

    No matter how much you make, if you don’t know how to manage money, it will disappear.

    Read books on finance, study wealthy men, and apply what you learn. Ignorance is expensive.

    4. Taking on Debt for the Wrong Reasons:

    There’s good debt and bad debt.

    Good debt makes you richer—like borrowing to invest in a business or real estate.

    Bad debt makes you poorer—like buying things you can’t afford just to show off.

    If you’re always borrowing money for liabilities, you’re digging a financial grave.

    5. Relying on “Luck” Instead of Strategy:

    Men who wait for a “big break” or a “lucky opportunity” will remain broke while others are strategically creating wealth.

    Success is lengineered, not wished for. It’s the result of planning, action, and discipline.

    Stop waiting for a miracle. Become the miracle through smart moves.

    6. Failing to Invest Early:

    A study by the Federal Reserve shows that those who start investing in their 20s are far more likely to retire wealthy than those who wait until their 30s or 40s.

    Even if you’re making little now, start saving and investing. The earlier you start, the bigger your financial freedom.

    7. Letting Women Control Your Financial Decisions:

    A real man leads his own financial life.

    Too many men make money decisions to impress or please women—buying gifts they can’t afford, taking on expensive dates when they’re struggling, or funding lifestyles they can’t sustain.

    A woman should respect your vision, not drain your wallet. Any woman who truly values you will support your financial growth, not sabotage it.

    BOTTOM LINE:

    Your financial freedom is in your hands. If you keep making these mistakes, you will always be struggling, dependent, and limited.

    But if you take control—get financially educated, build multiple income streams, invest wisely, and spend smartly—you will always be a man in control of his destiny.

    Master your money, or be mastered by it. The choice is yours.

  • Who Was Melchizedek in the Bible?

    Melchizedek is one of the most fascinating figures in the Bible, captivating readers with his sudden and mysterious appearance. He is mentioned in Genesis 14:18–20 as the "Priest of God Most High," who blesses Abraham and receives a gift from him. After this pivotal moment, Melchizedek seemingly vanishes from the narrative, with no details provided about his lineage, parents, marriage, or descendants. This absence of background invites readers to ponder his identity and significance. Is there any other character in the Bible who parallels him in mystery and role?

    In Genesis 14:18, Melchizedek is also identified as the "King of Salem." This title raises intriguing questions: What does "Salem" refer to? Is it a physical location, or does it carry a deeper, symbolic meaning? Let’s delve into the word "Salem" to better understand its implications.

    The Meaning of "Salem"

    The term "Salem" (שָׁלֵם) is rich with meaning, often translated as "peace" or "complete" in Hebrew. Linguistically, it connects to the latter part of "Jerusalem" (יְרוּשָׁלַיִם, Yerushalayim). Interestingly, the Arabic word for peace, "Salam," bears a closer phonetic resemblance to "Salem" than modern Hebrew’s "Shalom," despite both originating from the same Semitic linguistic family. Could this similarity suggest that Arabic has preserved aspects of the ancient pronunciation of certain Semitic terms? This is a possibility worth considering.

    In Psalm 76:2 (or 76:3 in Hebrew), we read, "His tent is in Salem, His dwelling place in Zion." This poetic parallel strongly indicates that "Salem" is synonymous with Zion, which is another name for Jerusalem. Additionally, Jewish historian Josephus explicitly equates Salem with Jerusalem in his writings, and the Septuagint (an ancient Greek translation of the Hebrew Bible) supports this connection. Thus, "Salem" likely refers both to a historical and physical place—Jerusalem—and also to a broader, symbolic concept.

    Titles of Melchizedek: King of Righteousness and King of Salem

    Melchizedek’s titles are deeply symbolic, carrying profound theological implications:

    1. King of Righteousness: The name "Melchizedek" (מַלְכִּי־צֶדֶק) is derived from two Hebrew words:

    * Melek (מֶלֶךְ): "King."
    * Tzedek (צֶדֶק): "Righteousness."

    Together, his name translates to "King of Righteousness," reflecting a role akin to that of a priest who reminds people of God’s commandments and righteousness.

    2. King of Salem (Peace): Beyond referring to a location, this title signifies kingship over the concept of peace itself. Melchizedek is thus portrayed as a ruler who embodies and ushers in peace.

    These dual titles unite the roles of priesthood (teaching righteousness) and kingship (governing with peace), emphasizing the harmonious relationship between righteousness and peace. This connection is beautifully expressed in Psalm 85:10: "Righteousness and peace kiss each other."

    Foreshadowing of Jesus

    The New Testament draws several parallels between Melchizedek and Jesus, suggesting that Melchizedek serves as a typological foreshadowing of Christ. Let us explore a few significant connections:

    1. Priest and King: Like Melchizedek, Jesus is both priest and king. Hebrews 5:6 identifies Jesus as "a priest forever in the order of Melchizedek," echoing Psalm 110:4, which refers to the Messiah in the same terms. Jesus fulfills the dual roles of teaching righteousness and bringing peace, as seen in His earthly ministry.

    2. Jesus as the King of Righteousness: In His teachings, Jesus emphasized righteousness, perfecting and upholding God’s commandments. As a spiritual guide, He leads humanity toward righteous living, and a life pleasing to God.

    3. Jesus as the King of Salem (Peace): Jesus’ entry into Jerusalem on a donkey (Matthew 21:1–11) symbolizes His kingship over peace (Salem) while also highlighting His humility.

    Furthermore, Isaiah 9:6 calls the Messiah the "Prince of Peace," reinforcing the connection between Jesus and Salem.

    4. Meeting Abraham: In John 8:56, Jesus declares, "Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad." Could Jesus’ statement refer to the encounter between Abraham and Melchizedek, hinting at an earlier appearance of Christ?

    Melchizedek and the Concept of Peace

    Righteousness and peace are deeply intertwined in both theology and human experience. The Hebrew word for Salem, "שָׁלֵם," also conveys the idea of wholeness and completeness. This connection highlights an essential truth: living righteously according to God’s commandments brings inner peace and harmony. Jesus exemplified this principle, teaching His followers to seek God’s kingdom and righteousness as the path to true peace.

    Conclusion

    Melchizedek’s brief yet profound role in Scripture continues to inspire theological reflection. His titles as King of Righteousness and King of Salem find their ultimate fulfillment in Jesus Christ, who embodies both roles perfectly. As Melchizedek pointed to the union of righteousness and peace, so Jesus teaches us to seek God’s righteousness and live according to it, enabling us to arrive at the City of Peace in our lives, the city of Jerusalem (Salem), wherever we are in the world.

    Shalom, Salam, Peace be with you all!

As Melchizedek pointed to the union of righteousness and peace, so Jesus teaches us to seek God’s righteousness and live according to it, enabling us to arrive at the City of Peace in our lives, the city of Jerusalem (Salem), wherever we are in the world. Shalom, Salam, Peace be with you all!
