WOW (iTS BEEN THREE MONTHS)

Hi PEOPLE...

THE PAST MONTHS.. *sigh* i won't even try to lie... it has been hectic, work, relationship everything.. but coming to the end of March and into Easter, i begin to have a rest of mind and some sort of peace that comes from above..

Going into Easter, i realize that Jesus actually, came, died and resurrected, not for the fun of it, or because he had the power to, but because of the Love he has for me, he gave his life. Who would do that, even the guy in Titanic was a bit reluctant :)

I got this poem from a friend and i made it mine and gave it a title.

17 Things you should know about me


1). The Lord is my Shepherd: That’s Relationship
2). I shall not want: That’s supply
3). He makes me to lie down in green pasture: That’s rest
4). He leads me beside the still water: That’s refreshment
5). He restores my soul: That’s healing
6). He leads me in the paths of righteousness: That’s guidance
7). For his names sake: That’s purpose
8). Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death: That’s Testing
9). I will fear no evil: That's Protection
10). For Thou art with me: That's Faithfulness
11). Thy rod and Thy staff they comfort me: That's Discipline
12). Thou prepares a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: That's Hope
13). Thou anoints my head with oil: That's Consecration!
14). My cup runs over: That's Abundance
15). Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life: That's Blessing
16). And I will dwell in the house of the Lord: That's Security
17). Forever: That's Eternity

Face it the Lord is crazy about you, he has everything you NEED!

God is indeed all we need to go through this life.. Yes we have eggs and bunnies all over this season, but one thing you should never forget is that JESUS DIED FOR YOU !!!!

I LOVE U LORD.. THANKS FOR THE ETERNAL PEACE U HAVE GIVEN ME..

How una dey...


Sorry I haven't been on here in a while...

The past week has been very interesting, as a matter of fact the longest week i have had in ages.


I had only two working days this week, was kinda ill for a bit but i'm good now thank God.


My highlight for this week was a major argument i had with the boo, lets call him Beau. In every relationship people, fight and people argue, but some arguments are world record based and in fact should be in the guiness book of record for ..lets see.... WORLD'S BEST ARGUMENT......


Well... i obviously would not say what the argument was about, because now that i think about it, i feel very silly, we both feel silly and now we can blame it on the "DEVIL"...... LOL....

When you have an argument with a Loved one, there are a few things you should know.


It is normal for a couple to quarrel at times. The fight may be caused by some Misunderstanding or it may be because of some things such as incompatibility of interests. The most difficult thing to do after a hot fight or argument is to make up. Mending up things after a hot argument is crucial for a relationship. This will allow you to start over again and can even help in fostering a stronger bond in the relationship.









*NOTICE THE BOND*







If you and your man have just gone through an argument and you do not know how to make up with your man after a fight, here are some tips on how to mend up things after a hot argument:


Say sorry.
There may be different means to mend up things after a fight but nothing beats the traditional and classical way of saying sorry. The best thing to show to your boyfriend or husband that you want to make up with him is to say sorry. Saying sorry might appear difficult and challenging especially if you are prideful enough and you believe that you were not the one who committed the mistake. Saying sorry does not mean you are wrong. It simply means you are sorry and you feel bad for hurting your man. Saying sorry also implies the message that you do not want to hurt and causes your man trouble. If you have had a fight and you want to end it up, go ahead and say sorry to your man.


Offer a making-up gift.
Another way for you to mend up things with your boyfriend after a fight is to offer him a making- up gift. This can be a box of his favorite chocolate or a note saying you love him and you want to make things right again. Offering a gift is most helpful if you have hurt your man enough and you know that you are the one who committed the mistake. You can also present yourself to your man but in a new light. You can refer to The Woman Men Adore… And Never Want To Leave and learn how to make your man forget his anger and surrender. BY THE WAY, THIS DOEN'T MEAN OFFER YOUR BODY AS A SORRY PRESENT.


What we find today, especially amond African women is the mentality of not getting presents for your man, there is aboslutely nothing wrong in it. Yes he is the man and yes he is suppose to be the one showering us with gifts and all, but it's always good to do the same once in a while. It only shows sensitivity and freindship



Talk to him.

If you find saying sorry very difficult, you will find it easier to “just talk” to your man as if something did not happen. You can start up a conversation such as by asking him if he wants to eat or if he is hungry. If things seem to be normal again, it is best to talk about the problem calmly so you will be able to settle the problem more efficiently.
Most guys, Like MR BEAU.... would rather talk there and then about the problem, but other guys would not, if your is like that, let him be, DO NOT force the conversation. Say sorry and leave him, when he is ready to talk about it, he'll COME AROUND.














Well I learnt a lot this past days, and at the end of the day God intervened and we are just Awesome. Love you Beau

*Don't worry i'll soon give you the gist of how we met... LOL*


Venue: At work

Hw Una dey...


Third day of the month......
We had 4 alarms set to remind us of church this morning, 3 phones, and 1 clock, we also had 2 wrist watches and we felt good.
Woke up @ 5am took a shower, looked at the clock we had a loooot of time. hmmm I felt good. Church starts @ 8am and finally after turning around a lot we finally got there. I looked at the clock in the car it read 8:55am i ignored it thinking "this driver has not set this clock well". I asked someone else and he said the same thing "omg i've been punked" lol, we qucikly rushed down and got into church, sat at the extreme back because we had 30 minutes to go. I felt really terrible i am never this late for church 'OMG Lagos girl'.

We made plans after church to go and visit my aunt who lost her husband, on getting home my mum fell ill, i mean rush to the hospital sickness. It was like a film trick, we found ourselves in ER .


I prayed and told God, this is just day 3, my mum has many many more years to go, this is definately not our portion.











After some minutes, she regained herself slowly, and even faster when the bill started coming one by one. In fact my mum told them she was well now and ready to go 'pure lie' lol... after a few calls from above "Dad", she decided to stay and get admitted for some hours.


Looking at my mum lying on a sick bed made me think about a lot of things. This is one woman who would run around from one place to another, scream, work, fast, pray, teach, everything you can think of all in one day and she does this everyday with only 5 hours of sleep and one meal per day. Although she felt she was strong enough and she kept going, her body finally could not take it any more.


This is just a quick reminder to all of us, like the saying goes "all work and no play, makes jack a dull boy". We need to spend time relaxing and regaining our energy. Never really eat once a day, as much as you think it will help you loose weight or whatever, it kills your system slowly. Many people have little or no time to spend on food. Get to work by 7am or school by 8am, work through the day and even after work, still go to mama John's house to sell that last piece of Gold jewllery. Many people also hide under the umbrella of kids, but here's the good news, you can relax with your kids.












Bottom line is, spend some time on your self, your body might not always show that it is tired but believe me it is. Also try and avoid living on Redbull or energy drugs to boost your system to work better, it gradually kills your system and infact when you grow older it gets worse. So please try as much as possible to take care of yourself and don't be like my mum who takes after super woman with her real life human body.

Stay blessed and most of all stay healthy.........

Venue: on a chair in my room, i think i'm comfortable today, o wait Ouch my neck.... there we go, uncomfortable on a chair in my room. LOL

Happy Place

Hi,

Today is the second day of the new year, i packed my bags and headed out to the big city, LAGOS STATE.
Auto rewind, 2 days earlier: My father calls me and asks me what plans i have for the new year, i was silent for a really long time. He finally helped me out, "you will go to Lagos and find your feet" ummm okay, i sat there starring at him thinking common now, this won't last.
Auto rewind: 1 day earlier, boxes packed and ready to go, how that happened i have no idea lol.
Present time: I got to Lagos by road and made a few calls hoping to get someone who will give me a reasonable job. I am currently a youth corper, and although i work at a Laison office, there really isn't much to do there. I need something motivating at least.
Well keep praying for me, I NEED A JOB.




















2:pm CAT Lagos state: I decided to start my Lagos life by hanging out with a 2 friends. On getting to the place i saw 4 more of my friends, quite a shock.. some i havn't seen in years and others from my NYSC camp.
we wanted to go karting, but we had to wait 3 hours, very very ridiculous. We moved on went to another venue and met 6 more, now this people I haven't see in 5 years. I couldn't scream much, i mean can't spoil the swagger u know :)
we all decided to leave and go back to the arena to chill, and ahah 12 more people from the past and a lil of the present. It was awesome.2+ 4+6+12= 24 they made so much money off us.




Although we had to still wait a while for our turn it was worth the wait, apparently two of my friends have never moved a car and two where just plain agbero drivers, she eventually bumped into the tracks and they had to send us out, literally. It was awesome though, we made a mark there. LOL.
we all blamed it on a drink she took earlier "filthy B.I.T.C.H" or something like that. The names they give drinks nowadays.




8:00pm CAT. going back home, the wires in my head touch and i remember OMG. I still don't have a Job..... *sigh* but o well as my friends call me now.... LAGOS GIRL.. lets go there.









venue: on my bed, again really uncomfortable.

2010.


:)


Interestingly I opened this page in 2007, this is me three years later and writing my first blog. "hmm this child".


I am Jade and a grown woman.


Welcome to 2010, as my Pastor would say your year of restoration. 2009 was a great year, a lot of stories to tell my kids when i finally have them. It came with ups and downs, it came with blessings and love but it also came with hurt and pain. At the end of the day, he has seen us through 2009.

A lot of people say "oh my God this is a fresh year, i have to start on a fresh plate". But how many people really continue on that fresh note. It is one thing to say and write it down in your journal, it is another thing to actually work it out.

My advice to us today in this year, is to hold on to the father up in heaven, he alone can actually make you stick to your new plan and hope.


2010 looks great already, although i stayed at home and entered the year with my family, i still felt like i was in church, lots of knock out, BANGER, noise, music outside and so on. I had a tear drop down my eyes, when the clock clicked 12:00 because about 6 hours before, a driver in my house lost the brother, "he slept and didn't wake up". This makes u reflect on how faithful God has been in your life and my life.

I was going to start this blog or rather my posts by telling you about my self, about my life, past, present etc. but hey its a new year, lets start on a fresh plate.... LOL.
HAPPY NEW YEAR
venue: "on an uncomfortable chair in my fathers office"
