Peace of Easter to You

Happy Easter

At this time of remembering of Christ’s passion and resurrection, may we remind ourselves that we are human created in God’s image. We ought to be christlike in our thoughts and actions be it in our homes or workplaces/schools.

As Christ carried His cross even till death may we carry ours with peace and in resignation to God’s will. May the risen Lord visit you and your family.

Wishing you all a happy easter celebration.
May God bestow on you the gift of His peace.
May your hearts be filled with blessings and deepest calm that never cease.

On a different note, was there anything you gave up during the lent? I do not mean chocolates this time. For example, giving up habitual sins and telling lies among others.

Do guide your spiritual life. Be humble before God.

Happy Easter again.

Have A Blessed 2021



Happy new year to you and yours

Happy New Year 🥳 to you and yours. I’m so glad we made it. The past year has been a handful.

Normally, I love to reflect about the past year and would encourage you to do so. Nonetheless, it is understandable that many unexpected events happened last year especially, with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic and it’s disruptions. 
However, I would still encourage you to map out a plan for this year regardless. Make a list of the things you want to achieve, work towards them effortlessly, pray about themselves and leave the rest to God. Do not forget that God niether sleeps or slumbers. 
My previous posts about new-year and new year resolutions can be found here. Check this too. You can have a sneak peek😊
I would like to remind you that everyone carries glory. Well, my bible says so. On that note:
May your glory manifest to its fullest in this year 2021🙏🏼
May there be no unfinished businesses to carry over to the next year. 

May God’s grace be sufficient for us all🙏🏼

Let’s grow together

Happy Easter Friends.

May the risen Lord bring you hope.

Hope is blessing.

There is a blessed assurance for us all.

May He turn your sorrows into joy.

Trying times are not here to stay as long as the risen christ reigns. He is victorious.

Easter is a time of reflection. A time of renewal of baptismal vows and the profession of our faith. A time to think about our relationship with God.

I pray the risen Christ heal the sick among us and heal the entire world.

N.B:

Part of this is written based on my belief as a catholic christian though I think christianity ought to be based on same key principles.

Do stay safe. COVID-19 is real.

Lots of love

Happy 59th Independence Day Nigeria

Coat of arms Nigeria

Independence is very important in every nation. Nothing can be compared to freedom. We are no more slaves to anyone or any masters.

Our country Nigeria 🇳🇬 will be great. We need to be hopeful and make it work. We seek greener pastures outside leaving our own to perish. We need to make it better. Our ancestors had hoped same and we are still hoping.

Time will tell. Nigeria 🇳🇬 will be great. Let us work hard towards it. Let us continue to pray for it (I know we do). Some day, it will be better.

Having said that, there are people who are living very comfortable lifestyles in Nigeria just that there is a huge gap between the poor and the rich in our country. With good leaders who will pave way for a better Nigeria, the gap would be greatly reduced.

If only we can put half of the energy we invest in criticising our country in making it better.

and justice shall reign🙏🏼

May God bless Nigeria 🇳🇬

Leadership skills



FNF Leadership Programme

Hello Friends, hope you have been all good and enjoying the nice summer weather? I want to share with you some useful tips I learnt from a Leadership programme I attended recently by Florence Nightingale Foundation.

If you are in the UK do keep an eye on the above link, you might find a programme that you like. You can also share the link with friends.

Celebration day- Squad from my Hosp with Greta Westwood (FNF CEO)

The training was given in a practical manner that you cannot leave the course without feeling imparted with new knowledge. I have had Leadership trainings in the past but this one by FNF was epic. The entire team knows their stuff and can deliver.

Do not forget that leadership skills can be applied anywhere; be it work, home, church, etc.

Do check back. You don’t want to miss this😄
