CONFIDE IN A FEW

I said because God is the source of my testimony not the church

Someone once said, "Even a fish wouldn’t get caught if it kept its mouth shut." Confidentiality is a gift to be shared in the privacy of prayer or with an intercessor, mentor or counselor that God has assigned to your life.

Never share your troubles, your dreams, ideas and your plans with anyone unqualified to help you. Don't consult with anyone from the circle of people that God is trying to pull you out of. Confide only in people who are living or once lived the life you desire to live.

Anyone who doesn't know where you're going cannot give you credible directions to get you there. Do not feed the shallow minds of the curious common who are incapable of adding value to your life.

Elevate or deepen your conversations to a level that is beyond the comprehension of the itching ears of the curious common. Sharing big ideas with small mind-minded people is a sure way to invite unnecessary discouragement.

A deep conversation with a shallow-minded person is a sheer waste of time.

Dreams, just like eggs, incubate in silent and solitude places. Don't be fooled, dreams and ideas can be stolen. That is why no egg or pregnancy is transparent. People have to keep wondering until the idea is finally hatched and the dream is finally realized. Big dreamers grind in silence and let the results speak for themselves. Behind every overnight success story are countless hours of silent planning, strategizing and brainstorming. "

The prudent keep their knowledge to themselves, but a fool’s heart blurts out folly." (Proverbs 12:23)

Acid bath /control your temper

Such a shame that a girl will go to jail because of boyfriend.. father lord may my children not be useless ..

the things some young girls do is shocking.

Story story , story once upon a time! Time!! time!!! , so there was a guy who lived three houses away from us

The guy’s name was Mattew

Only child of his parents

Very hot tempered

Went to jail , because of his temperament

He gave someone his bicycle and when he went to collect it the man said his balance was 300 naira that’s how Mattew got angry

He is a mechanic, and known in that area , one day myself and my younger ones were sitting outside when we say him run pass and the next thing he ran pass again with this small gallon, we live close to the main road those days, so after awhile we saw him running half naked , we were so scared because my mother had gone to the market, we ran inside the house, not more than 1 hour police started looking for Mattew , we heard his mom screaming, Mattew has killed me oo

Mattew has killed me ooo

Then me cos I am the oldest I came out to find out what was happening, that’s when I saw police dragging him by his trousers , they hit him with ballot , I now went there ooo, found out that that gallon Mattew carried when he ran pass our house was acid , he poured acid on the bicycle repairer , Jesus , Jesus was what I was screaming at that my young age ooo.

All I could say was this uncle Mattew and his hot temper , we all know him on our street and everyone avoided his wahala because of his temperament..

I ran home to tell my younger ones the gist and that was our bed night story ..

Mattew was arrested and jailed , for many years his mother wept , the pain killed his father , the mother was still going to see him in prison, cos those day she will come to my mom for some encouragement and money .. and the woman would say to my mom “my sister because I get only one pikin I fear to tell am the truth” you know he had this devilish temper and because he is the only child and she really suffered before she had him, she didn’t want him to feel bad or get angry at all, always petting him , you know how some women can be .. petting children till they rotten

Anyway the woman died after some years, by the time brother Mattew came out from jail he was so old , no family no friend because the man he poured acid on died from that incident, so everyone saw him like an outcast.. brother Mattew died two yrs after release from prison, I know it’s a sad story , but it it’s something I use to relate to the one I saw yesterday where a girl poured acid on another girl because she is talking to her boyfriend, what kind of madness is that, who born all this kind children God of mercy, and the brother Mattew story just flashed through my mind .. why will you jeopardized your life over a boyfriend..

Parents pls talk to your children, their decision can affect their life in a good or bad way so they have to make the right decisions at every point in life…

If your child is doing the wrong thing it is your job to correct them, tell them the implications of their habits..

It’s so sad, believe me the girl will realize it when it’s already too late , inside prison she go cry blood because the boy wey make u pour another girl acid go dey with another girl, make una dey wise abeg…

I hope we all learnt something today and control our temperament.. may God help us all

Talk to you next week on real life talk with blessing

Hi welcome back it’s another beautiful time with me here On real life talk with Blessing, first let me introduce an amazing guest , a beautiful cake designer , a mother , a role model and also my very good friend 😂 please don’t snatch her from me oo 😂

I know a lot of my listeners want to know you Ceo driples cake ..

can u pls introduce yourself

You are very popular with your cakes and the designs , can you just give us a glimpse of how this passion started , I am sure someone listening would really want to know..

Do you know when people see you doing so well they will think you never had any hard time or bad times in your business, so I am asking for my listeners did you have any kind of challenges in your journey and business,

Was it always this smooth , Was there ever a time when you thought about giving up on this business?

I mean when you started driples was it always this easy , because what people see from the outside is how you make beautiful cakes nobody would understand there could ever be a bad time

When did you realize you were gonna be a baker , was it that you liked sweet things 😂 because I know u are a sucker for cheese cake 😂😂

So tell us Which of your cakes is your favorite and why and also do u take 24hrs orders ?

and I have always thought about this personally how did the name driples come about

What would you advise someone who is a baker who is probably going through a a difficult time right now in their baking business..

Driples cakes makes the most amazing cakes in port harcourt incase you don’t know where driples is , it’s opposite best bite here in GRA port harcourt,

People struggle with their mental health

When the chips are down, you need to rise above your challenges

You want to be your best ?

I know how this pandemic has really affected a lot of lives negatively , a lot of people are hungry, a lot of people don’t have jobs

Some lost their family members to the Covid

Are you out there tired and exhausted by the situations of life? Are you just tired things are not working the way you want?

Does it seem like everything is working too slowly? A lot of times it feels like we are stuck in a mediocrity trap

Life is a struggle, challenges come and go

You have the final say in the matter , encourage your self, tell yourself This is gonna pass , it’s a phase of life , but self encouragement and motivation can impact your life in a different

Our struggles will could be from our business

Our struggle could be from our marriage, our relationship

It could be from our career , even from our children , from health

The challenge of life could be in any form

I have struggled with my business , I know how I struggled with My marriage, or was it my child’s health that was a trauma for me ?

all that was a phase I went through

It was all a time my faith was Tested

It was a time I looked at the sky and said God have you abandoned me? God do you still love me , God do you still care for me or has my sin made you abandon me ?

And on one of those my silent cry’s the good I have being calling said to me BLESSING I am still God and I change not , I had to start training my heart to believe again, to trust God again

Are you at that point of your life when you ask God , my creator are you still there for me ? Do you still love me ? Or am I on my own ..

Yes such words are possible, the time when our Heart is heavy and broken , the time when we feel alone even though there are people around us, the time we had to question God why

Like yesterday my very close friend called me and was crying over the phone, she had lost her sister that morning, and Heart broken she kept saying God why did u allow this happen ?

My goodness I felt the pain in her voice, I felt the grieve in her heart

The truth is God knows how you feel ,

but in life there are some challenges that will come our way that I will say are inevitable, but we can’t give up ..

Even God himself knew there will be a time in our life that we will feel that way, he knew we will come to a point when we say God why .. that is why Job really impressed him, because on a normal day when one goes thru a kind of situation we tend to ask God why.

remember this word (I HAVE NOT Given you the spirit of fear, but of a sound mind,)

God knows fear will come , he knows we will face a stage when fear and anxiety will come

That’s why he already gave that assurance that if it comes know that it is not go from him

Keep believing in your silent prayer, don’t give up on yourself and don’t give up on God

Keep trusting him! You will celebrate at last .

What do you make of the fate of a defenseless child who was kept in your care cos their parents feel you’re capable to be their guardian.

Their lives are different without shields. Why not be their shield when they need one instead of being their nightmare that comes back to hunt them everyday of their lives.

.

Listen to this podcast, and imagine how a child was treated with pepper and water.

What is the fate of an African motherless or fatherless child? Why do some people treat them like animals and not humans. Why make them go through so much pain!! Child abuse is not just physical violence directed at a child. It is any form of maltreatment by an adult, which is violent or threatening for the child. This includes neglect. There are five general types of child abuse:

Physical abuse: all forms of physical violence;

Emotional or psychological abuse: an adult regularly berates the child, acts in a dismissive and hostile manner towards the child or intentionally scares the child.

Physical neglect: the child does not receive the care and nurturing that it needs.

Emotional or psychological neglect: continuous lack of positive attention for the child. Ignoring the child’s need for love, warmth and security. This category also covers cases in which children are witnesses to violence between their parents or caregivers.

Sexual abuse: sexual contact which an adult forces upon a child.

So many lives have been truncated by the effects of rape. So many women walking on the streets with pains of rape. They’re living with the stigma that can be hidden no matter how hard they try.

.

Its a pain that can never leave irrespective of when it happened, how it happened, where it happened. And in today’s world, they blame the “woman” or the “victim” of an incident that they probably cannot control cos they’re being overpowered by forces.

.

Its so sad that nobody wants to pay attention to the narratives of the rape victims as the judge based on just speculations and assumptions and say “oh she was raped cos of her outfit or he was raped cos he crossed boundaries”. Nobody wants to really hear the actual truth behind it. And out of 100% rape victims, the female gender has 90% of victims where 80% are so scared to share their stories.

.

Here’s why we bring you a voice to help you out, let’s get over this pain and stigma together. It’s a tough journey we know but having to be proud of how far you have done for yourself is our major goal.
