Natural inclination

words “natural” and “inclination”.
Natural according to the oxford
dictionary is defined as “existing in or derived from nature” while Macmillan
dictionary defines it as “existing in nature and not produced or caused by
people”.
WHAT WILL HELP THE PARENTS LIVE LONGER
The desire of every man is to live long; no man will like to
die early. Even the great educated elites that were past leaders of the world
wished to finish their work before dying. Some of the leaders of the church that
encountered God in the field of their work wished to finish their work before
going to heaven. Example is st. Paul the great preacher of his time. But if I
may ask, is there any time that is too early or short for a man to die? The
answer is yes.
Making wrong decision
When we were little we were asked questions like what we
want to be when we grow up and our answers were like doctor, pilot, president,
lawyer, and when we got a bit older we were asked again and our answers were a
little more different from our previous answer, now again, what do u want to be
when you grow up?.
How to know the most intelligent one among your children
There are
various classes in this life. A president of a country is from a family and a
poor laborer is also from a family, but the two are not in the same level. How
old one is does not determine how rich in knowledge one is going to be. The
first son/daughter in your family may depend on your last son/daughter
financially in the future.

ABILITY- see how it makes one excel in life via career success
Having seen
the Natural inclination and its power to make one excel in life via career
success when recognized and embraced by an individual concerned, ABILITY is
also an essential factor that needs to work in harmony with natural inclination
to successfully bring an individual into his natural environment for
excellence.
A tonic for husband and wife
According to Collins advanced learners English dictionary,
tonic is defined as a medicine that makes one feel stronger, healthier, and
less tired. It is anything that makes one feel stronger, more cheerful or more
enthusiastic.
Anything that brings peace and harmony between husband and
wife is indeed a tonic for them. When I say peace, I don’t really mean that the
two persons will never have one problem or the other that will make them feel
uncomfortable. The two persons have different characters and different
understanding. What the father sees as an offense may not be an offense to his
wife.

Diligence- combination of carefulness and long term effort
While focusing on ones goal in life of turning ones natural
inclination into a career; one also needs to be diligence. According to the
universal life church “the diligence carries a zealous yet careful nature in
their actions. They have a decisive work ethics, are steadfast in their
beliefs, uphold their convictions at all times (especially when no one is
looking) and do not easily give up.
Diligence is a virtue of hard work, and is indicative of a
belief that work in itself is good”. Menander equally says “he who labors
diligently needs never despair, for all things are accomplished by diligence
and labors”.
Diligence therefore is defined by Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary, International Students Edition, as “careful and through work or
effort”.

your natural inclination and ability, one also needs to be focused.

Keep praying; dont give up
This year calls for much prayer. There has to be an increase
in your prayer life as compared to the previous year, you should keep praying
about your desires and not give up until the answer comes. Don’t forget the
fact that the effectual fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much (James 5:
16). Be diligent in your prayer life this year and be determined to keep times
of prayer with the lord. If the unrighteous judge could hearken to the
persistent cry of the woman, God will certainly hearken to your prayer. When
the answer does not come immediately do not be discouraged for the delay to
your prayer being answered does not mean denial. Keep knocking at the door and
it shall be opened.

Read now- Power In Giving
Luke 3: 3- 5, 2 kings 4: 9- 16
Determine that you are going to be a very generous and
hospitable person giving to God and man.
Giving attracts divine blessings; it attracts God’s
attention to your problems. Solomon gave wonderfully to the lord and God in
response asked him what he wanted. Indeed giving brings a release from God.
Hospitality opens the door for reward as we can see in the case of the
shunammite woman.
understanding behavior modification

Young men with wrong choices
 |
After graduating from the university and I was serving my
nation as a Nigerian youth service corps member, I had a friend h came to the
orientation camp as a Christian. He was even our “Christian corpers’
fellowship” zonal representative.
When we got to our place of primary assignment, there was a
choice we had to make. We met some people who said they were welcoming the new
corps members with a party. I declared to them that I am a Christian; I took my
stand and told them that I have nothing to do in partnership with unbelievers;
of course, they mocked me and laughed me to scorn.
What determines what a child will be in future
 |
Surely, the future of every nation strongly depends on the character of her present generation. If the people are the type that inherited ugly character from their parents, it means that the nation is going to suffer.
The same problem they
encountered will continue to grow at a higher level. The only
thing that will make that nation have a better generation in the future is to
find a very good way to stop that corruption. What about a father/mother that
has a child that inherited one/two ugly character from him/her? Is it not
surprising to see a child that behaves like his/her parents? The truth is
always clear, any parent that understands his/her poor character will regret
about it.
Must read- What will make your children marry late

One of the happiness of every parent is to be alive to see their children marry in time. Once parents celebrate their children’s marriage at the right time, they will be alive to see their grand children. Do you know that children are a blessing from the God|? The bible says that children are blessings from the God (psalm 127-3).
If you happen to see your grand children or great grand children, it’s like entering from to joy (Nehemiah 8 vs. 10). There are many things that will deny you the privilege of seeing your grand children. Any child that does not attend secondary school especially the higher institution in this present generation will suffer the problem of late marriage. Some people use the time their children are supposed to be educated to use them in making money. Engaging them in one little business at their tender age will not help them in future.
What can make you have an unwanted baby

Can there be a baby that is not
wanted? The answer is no. Every child that comes into this world has something
special in him or her. It might be for good or bad, but what is important is
for you to understand that no child is unwanted.
Every reasonable man plans very
well before doing anything important.
Parents that want to enjoy their peace
of mind in this life should think of the number of children they are going to
have.
The number of children Mr. A has
may not be the number of children Mr. B will have, this is because Mr. A may
have money to train up to j children, while Mr. B has money to train 5
children.
WHAT EVERY PARENT MUST KNOW
 |
| PEXELS PHOTOS |
Every individual that is alive should always understand that
there is time for everything in this life (Eccl. 3- 1). The more you are living
in this world, the more you are approaching your grave, what you are able to do
today, is what you may not be able to do tomorrow as a result of sickness or
old age. Having knowledge of this will enable you to plan ahead. Do you know
that any man that does not train his children to the higher institution or in a
very good business may not receive help from his children? You may ask why, if
a man trains his children in the university and in a good business but has no
reserve for himself could complain of not receiving enough from his children,
what about those that did not train their children to such levels? Well, the
children cannot be blamed because they have their own families to cater for
which is more important to them.
WHAT ARE YOU KNOWN FOR

Apostle John spoke to Gaius and commended him for the
testimony he had amongst the brethren, the brethren testified of the love Gaius
showed and how he was walking in the truth.
If people are to come around you, what will be their testimony
concerning you? Will they testify that you are walking in the truth? Will they
say that you are loving and generous? Have you ever sat down to think of the
impression you had left before members of your family, your business
colleagues, members of the church and neighbors? People are certainly observing
you every day, are they saying “forget that hypocrite?”
