MY FATHER'S ADVICE...
1. Not everything will go as you expect in your life. This is why you need to drop expectations and go with the flow.
2.Reduce bitterness from your life, that **** delays blessings!
3. Dating a supportive woman is everything.
4. If you want to be successful, you must respect one rule - Never lie to yourself.
5. If your parents always count on you, don't play the same game with those who count on their parents.
6. Chase goals, not people.
7. Your 20's are your selfish years, build yourself, choose yourself first at all cost.
8. Detachment is power. Release anything that doesn't bring you peace.
9. Only speak when your words are more beautiful than your silence.
10. Invest in your looks. Do it for no one else but yourself. When you look good, you feel good. Normalize dressing well, you're broke not mad.
11. Some people want to see everything go wrong for you because nothing is going right for them.
12. Being a good person doesn't get you loved. It gets you used.
13. Don't be afraid of losing people, be afraid of losing yourself by trying to please everyone around you.
14. Keep your move private. Don't announce it until it's SEALED! Premature announcements attract bad spirits. Best thing you can do is stop telling people what's going on in your life.
15. For the sake of your mental health don't love too hard, therapy sessions are expensive. Also, marry when you're ready, not when you're lonely.
16. Your thoughts are very powerful, make them positive.
17. Social media will make you envy someone you should actually pity.
18. Nobody owes you anything on your birthday, learn to save money and spoil yourself.
19. That move you're scared to make might just be the one that changes everything. Do it. Move.
20. Dont mess up your progress trying to rush the process.
21. No matter how thirsty you are, there are some people you should never ask for water.
22. Add value to your life, learn a skill, develop yourself.
23. Never love someone to the point where you no longer mind them hurting you.
24. You are your own best friend. Never ever, put yourself down.
25. Sometimes people come back in your life just to check if you're still ******.
26. The sooner you figure out which chairs don't belong at your table, the more peaceful your meals become.
27. If you want to run, first you must learn to walk. Yes, the dreams are big, but you have to start somewhere, and doing something is better than nothing at all. Start small, stay consistent and watch it get bigger.
28. Before spending money on someone else, make sure your family is good.
29. What comes easy, won't last. What lasts, won't come easy.
30. Normalize lying to people who ask you lots of questions about your personal life.
31. One day you'll test HIV positive because of forgiving cheating partners.
32. Some Ex's need to understand that even if we hear they now drive a plane or own the world, we will never regret leaving them.
33. Avoid peer pressure.
34. Do not abuse and kill women. Respect yourself.
35. Not everyone at your work place is your friend.
~ Do your job.
~ Get paid.
~ Go home.

Discover Dream Homes
Floor Plan? https://bit.ly.fysxr3iji.socozy.us/kJMD
Owning your dream home is a transformative milestone that embodies personal achievement, comfort, and security. It is not just a structure of bricks and mortar but a sanctuary where aspirations, memories, and dreams take shape. The greatness of having your own dream home lies in its ability to reflect your identity, provide a space of belonging, and offer a lifetime of joy and fulfillment.
Your dream home is a sanctuary tailored to your tastes, needs, and preferences. It represents the freedom to create an environment that mirrors your personality, from the choice of colors on the walls to the arrangement of furniture. Every room is a reflection of your style, whether it's a cozy reading nook, a state-of-the-art kitchen, or a backyard garden. This level of personalization creates a sense of peace and contentment that no rented property or temporary residence can provide.
One of the most rewarding aspects of owning a dream home is the opportunity to build lasting memories. It becomes the backdrop for life's significant milestones, from celebrating holidays and birthdays to enjoying quiet evenings with loved ones. Each corner of the house holds a story—whether it's the laughter of children in the living room, family meals in the dining area, or cherished conversations on the porch. These moments make the house a home, creating a legacy for generations to cherish.
Owning a dream home is also a symbol of stability and security. Financially, it is an investment that appreciates over time, providing a sense of long-term wealth and independence. Emotionally, it offers the peace of mind of knowing you have a permanent place to call your own, free from the uncertainties of renting or frequent relocations. It becomes a safe haven where you can relax and recharge, a place that anchors you in an ever-changing world.

𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗟𝗶𝗳𝗲 𝗱𝗶𝗱 𝗝𝗲𝘀𝘂𝘀 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝗸𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝗶𝗻 𝗛𝗶𝘀 𝟯𝟬❜𝘀, 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗼 𝗯𝗮𝗿𝗸 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻

1. Was He just going about praying everywhere and everyday for God to empower Him for the work He had to do?

2. Did He spend all His time in the synagogues listening to the Rabbi's of His time teach so that He could have good argument to bring against them and to skillfully discredit their work when it would be time to begin his work?

𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒎𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒔

3. Did He give Himself into deep studies of different subjects so that he could be knowledgeable enough to help His would-be followers when the need arose as he went about His work?

4. Was he just another carpenter like many were in His days who tried surviving, but since things were not going for him in business he then gave up and ventured into the "church business"?

5. Was he a man who was an expert in carpentry/woodwork, and had made a great name for Himself in the process, empowering others to do what he did, so that He could have time to move into the real work His Father-God had sent Him on earth to do?

6. Was He a lazy son of Mary - "mummy's boy", who hardly did any work around the house spending most of His time praying and studying the word waiting for his 30th birthday?

7. Was He a responsible son of Mary and Joseph who learned everything His earthly parents taught Him and took up the role of family head when His earthly father Joseph died and managed the family business to great heights and then handed over the management of the business to His brothers before starting the Work His Heavenly Father-God had prepared for Him?

8. Was He poor or rich in Earth's standard? Before He began His work of revealing the kingdom of God, scripture records He spoke with leaders of the synagogue while only 12, was missing for over 24 hours and yet was still found among these high status fellows. Can a boy from a poor background be exchanging with these church leaders who were very picky with the caliber of people they interacted with?

Who was Jesus and what really did He do before we heard about Him in the accounts of His Disciples as recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and in the letters of Apostle Paul?

𝘿𝙤 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙩𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙠 𝙙𝙞𝙨𝙘𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙧𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙬𝙝𝙤 𝙅𝙚𝙨𝙪𝙨 𝙬𝙖𝙨, 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙦𝙪𝙖𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙮 𝙤𝙛 𝙡𝙞𝙛𝙚 𝙃𝙚 𝙡𝙞𝙫𝙚𝙙 𝙤𝙣 𝙚𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙝 𝙗𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝙃𝙞𝙨 𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙧𝙮 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙗𝙚𝙜𝙖𝙣 𝙬𝙞𝙡𝙡 𝙝𝙚𝙡𝙥 𝙮𝙤𝙪 𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙞𝙖𝙩𝙚 𝙃𝙞𝙨 𝙬𝙤𝙧𝙠 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙨𝙖𝙘𝙧𝙞𝙛𝙞𝙘𝙚 𝙢𝙤𝙧𝙚

Is it possible that any rich man of today's context can really fratanise with this Jesus? Is it possible that He was a friend of the rich of His day?

𝑺𝒉𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒔 𝒎𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒂𝒈𝒆 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝒔𝒐𝒎𝒆𝒐𝒏𝒆 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒉𝒆𝒍𝒑 𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒎 𝒖𝒏𝒅𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒘𝒉𝒐 𝑱𝒆𝒔𝒖𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒂𝒍𝒍𝒚 𝒘𝒂𝒔

Cardi B responds to Offset after he demanded for Spousal support following their ongoing divorce
