HOW YOUR HISTORY AFFECTS YOU

Everyone has a history and what you do with it is up to you.

Some repeat it,

Some change it and

Some also learn from it and move on.

The quality of your thinking determines the quality of your life and the first place *you lose or win a battle is in your own thinking .

You have to change your thinking if you want to progress in life and see everything that's holding you back as temporary* b'cos what you tell yourself everyday, *will either lift you up or tear you apart*.

IGNORE YOUR ANGER

Anger isn't good no matter how you look at it. When you let anger get the best part of you, it brings out the worst in you.

Remember that anger doesn't solve anything, it builds nothing, but it can destroy everything. Just tell me what you benefit from anger. Speak when you're angry & trust me you'll make the best speech you'll ever regret.

So be careful with your words, once they're said, they can only be forgiven not forgotten.

You must recognize the negative effects of anger and choose to rather leave a positive legacy to humanity.

No matter what happens in life, be good to people as that'll be a wonderful legacy to leave behind.

Life's short and don't waste it on anger or hate, just ask yourself if one day your life's flashed before you, will it be worth watching.

Let go of anything that cause you to be angry, forgive often, smile always and facous on your dream.

*WHEN MARRIAGE IS A MISTAKE.*

An Article worth reading

Most times when a *marriage is in trouble* , people tend to see their Marriage as a *mistake* rather than seeing the *mistakes they are making* in their marriage. At this point they *regret marrying their wife or husband, begin to think of a new partner, imagine marrying their ex or fantasizing a marriage without issues.*

Some even divorce or remarry and later wish they had *remained* with their first Spouse, as they find greater trouble in the new spouse. This is because *the first marriage was not a mistake,* and the mistake has not been *discovered yet.*

So you can remarry as many times as you like, you will still experience problems in marriage until *you discover the mistakes you are making in your marriage and correct them.*

So divorce or separation is not a solution to consider when you are having problems with your marriage.

When your car has a flat tyre, you do not abandon it, but repair the tyre and move on.

When we have a headache, no matter how excruciating, we do not cut off the head but take care of the headache.

When a bulb blows out in the room we do not change the room or the house, we replace the bulb and light up the room.

When we have challenges at work, we do not refuse to go to work, we go there to solve the problems.

So when marriage has an issue, we don't have to try to change the spouse instead of changing the *attitude* that is creating the problem.

Most times when we see some couples enjoying their marriages and enjoying each other to the fullest, we admire and cherish them, but the opposite is seen in our own marriage. The reason is that some people have worked on their marriage *by paying the necessary price* and that is why they are enjoying the fruits of their labour. It is said, “The way you make your bed is the way you will lie on it”.

Your marriage is as *good* or as *sweet* as you make it. Some couples, because of the *negative things* they are seeing in their marriage, accuse each other of being responsible. They point accusing fingers at each other for being responsible. Some even say many bad things about their spouse, even *calling him or her names;* some think that marrying that man or that woman was a mistake.

*It is not so, your marriage was not a mistake,* *but you are the mistake.*

Your *habit* is the mistake

Your *character* is the mistake

Your *manner, anger, unforgiveness, laziness, lack of love, lack of affection, lack of attention, impatience, bitterness, selfishness, ignorance, stinginess, not being considerate, infidelity and lovelessness are the mistakes.*

Talking about bitterness. Some still dream of a marriage with their ex seeing your spouse as a stumbling block. *Wake up* and smell the coffee. Be *content* with your spouse. That *behavior* is your mistake.

So *get up now* and *build your marriage* because it is not a mistake.

*Divorce or separation* are never options unless it is "LIFE" threatening.

*I Beseech Almighty God to bless all OUR MARRIAGES AND EASE OUR AFFAIRS *

*Amend your ways and decisions.* *Give your spouse a stress free life.*

May God reward us with HIS GRACE.....

*ONION THE KILLER & THE HEALER*

*Miracle / Poison—ONION In 1919, flu killed 40 million people. A doctor visited the many farmers who had the attack to see if he could help them combat the flu.

Many of the farmers & their family had contracted the flu and many died.

However, the doctor came upon one farmer whose family was healthy and nobody in the house contracted the flu.

The doctor asked the farmer what he was doing that was different from the others.

The farmer's wife replied that she put an unpeeled onion in a dish and placed them in all the rooms in their house.

The doctor thought that could have been the cure so he asked for one of those onions.

As he placed it under the microscope, he found the flu virus in the onion. The onions obviously absorbed all the bacteria and thereby kept the family healthy.

Now, I sent this story to a friend in Oregon who regularly contributes material to me on health issues. She replied with this most interesting experience about onions:

She said ' Thanks for the reminder. I don't know about the farmer's story but, I do know that I myself got pneumonia and became very ill. From my previous knowledge about onions, I cut both ends off an onion put it into an empty jar, and place the jar next to myself over night.

By the morning, I began to feel better while the onion became black.'

*Lots of times when we have stomach problems we don't know what to blame. Maybe the onions that we ate earlier are to blame.*

*Onions ABSORB BACTERIA* and that is the reason why they are also good at preventing us from getting *colds & flu* in left peeled in our room !!!

*And for that very reason we should NOT eat an onion that has been sitting for a time after it has *been cut open.*

*Left over onions are poisonous*

When food poisoning is reported, the first thing the officials look for is whether the 'victim' ate *ONIONS* and where those onions came from. Most probably the *ONIONS,* are the cause.

*Onions are huge magnets* for bacteria, especially uncooked ones.

*Never ever keep a portion of sliced onion over a period of time and thereafter use it to prepare food. It's not even safe if you put it in a zip-lock bag and placed it in your refrigerator. It is still poisonous*

Also, do not give onions to dogs. Their stomachs cannot metabolize onions.

*Please remember it is dangerous to cut an onion and try to save it to cook with the next day, it becomes highly poisonous for even a single night - as it creates toxic bacteria which causes adverse stomach infections and food poisoning.*

I am forwarding this from another person—

Share this to as many people as possible to let them know the poisonous effect of peeled onion left over —which can cause us to be sick .

RISK OF OVER-DEPENDENT GENERATION

Most parents of today are raising an *OVER DEPENDENT GENERATION* !!!

1. You cook their food for them so that they can read and enjoy.

2. You help them to wash their clothes and tidy their rooms.

3. You drop them off in school every day by yourself!

4. You lie on their behalf to get them out of trouble.

5. You arrange "expo" to help them pass their exams.

6. You protect them from every danger and difficulties.

7. You prevent them from any form of pain and suffering.

8. You don't want them to suffer like you did as a child.

9. You hustle around while they watch films and play games.

10. They can't go out alone because you're always scared.

11. You take every decision for them, because you're wiser.

12. You go to their schools to fight for them and prove rights.

13. You defend them even when they're wrong and at fault.

14. You can not stand seeing them starve or go hungry for once.

15. You fight against those who try to correct them.

*I PITY YOU*

.....YOU ARE BUSY RAISING AN OVER- DEPENDENT GENERATION !!!

You think you are showing them LOVE ?

*SORRY, YOU'RE WRONG* !!!!

By the time you're no longer there and they face real life challenges, they will become helpless !!!

At that stage, they will realise the havoc you have done to them and CURSE YOU !!!

STOP RAISING AN OVER-DEPENDENT GENERATION !!!

Allow these children to face realities of life !!!

*Pride limits a man's destiny*

Pride destroys glory

Pride devalues grace and anointing

*The earlier we make a change* and accept adequate corrections.

*When you look at those who helped* you to get to the top as nothing.

*When you refused to appreciate those* who have been a blessing to your life even when you have over enough to do so.

*When message of God has no value or meaning to you* through the same man of God or person God has tremendously used for your upliftment.

*When you are too* officious about position.

Don't be conscious of tittle be humble Remember God resist the proud but gives Grace to the humble.

Stay humble
