NO TIME

Posted by: Ayodele on October 2nd, 2008

I knelt to pray but not for long,
I had too much to do.
I had to hurry and get to work
For bills would soon be due.
So I knelt and said a hurried prayer,
And jumped up off my knees.
My Christian duty was now done
My soul could rest at ease…..
All day long I had no time
To spread a […]

ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD

Posted by: Ayodele on April 30th, 2008

I came across this story over the weekend, and was touched by its simple message. I hope you too will be touched by it….
While at the park one day, a woman sat down next to a man on a bench near a playground. “That’s my son over there,” she said, pointing to a little boy […]

DO MORE THAN…

Posted by: Ayodele on November 26th, 2007

Do more than exist … live.
Do more than touch … feel.
Do more than look … observe.
Do more than read … absorb.
Do more than hear … listen.
Do more than listen … understand.
Do more than think … reflect.
Do more than just talk … say something.

LET IT BE…

Posted by: Ayodele on November 26th, 2007

To let be doesn’t mean to stop caring, it means I can’t do it for someone else.
To let be is not to cut myself off, it’s the realization that I can’t control another.
To let be is not to enable, but to allow learning from natural consequences.
To let be is to admit powerlessness, which means the […]

Be someone who listens, and you will be heard.
Be someone who cares, and you will be loved.
Be someone who gives, and you will be blessed.
Be someone who comforts, and you will know peace.

MONEY

Posted by: Ayodele on October 26th, 2007

It can buy you a house but not a home.
It can buy you a bed but not sleep.
It can buy you a clock but not time.
It can buy you a book but not knowledge.
It can buy you a position but not respect.
It can you medicine but not health.
It can buy you blood but not life.
It […]

I AM THANKFUL…

Posted by: Ayodele on October 24th, 2007

I AM THANKFUL… FOR THE HUSBAND WHO COMPLAINS WHEN HIS DINNER IS NOT ON TIME BECAUSE HE IS HOME WITH ME, NOT WITH SOMEONE ELSE.
FOR THE TEENAGER WHO IS COMPLAINING ABOUT DOING DISHES BECAUSE THAT MEANS SHE IS AT HOME AND NOT ON THE STREETS.
FOR THE TAXES THAT I PAY, BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT I […]

A CHILD LIVES WHAT IT LEARNS

Posted by: Ayodele on September 24th, 2007

If a child lives with criticism, He learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility, He learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule, He learns to be shy.
If a child lives with shame, He learns to be guilty.
If a child lives with tolerance, He learns to be patient.
If a […]

To talk health, happiness and prosperity to everyone you meet.
To make all your friends feel there is something special in them.

SLAVE FOREVER

Posted by: Ayodele on July 1st, 2007

I never wanted to love.
I know its a subtle form of slavery.
But if I will be a slave to you,
Let me be a slave forever.
The First General Epistle of Sinful Peter - 2000
