A 28 year old lady gets marries a 32 year old man.
She has a group of 4 friends, 2 are married, 2 are single.
The single friends are side chicks to married men.

The man tells his wife he's very uncomfortable with her friendship with such women.
It's immoral, he says...
The wife would have nothing of it.
"Stop judging my friends! You're not God! They're not under any obligation to live up to your morality standard!"

"You don't get it, do you?
It's not about THEM: it's about YOU. Associating with side chicks tells a lot about YOU!"
Hubby says...
Wifey couldn't be bothered.
"Just leave my friends alone: how they live their lives is not your business!"

Ok.

Husband let it go.
He never brings it up again.

About a year later, someone tells wifey she saw her husband having lunch with a young lady in a restaurant...
Wifey asks hubby who the young lady is.
"My side chick!"
Wifey is stunned!
What????
"My side chick!"
How dare you???
Hey! Don't judge me! I'm not under any obligation to live up to your morality standard, hubby submits.
You have no problems with your friends being side chicks...
Why should you have a problem with me having one?
You defend your side chick friends, why are you now upset at me?
Are you aware the men your friends are side chicks to have wives? How do you think they feel?
You are not concerned- until your husband now has a side chick!
If you can tolerate your friends being side chicks, you should tolerate your husband having one too!
After all, if your friends were side chicks to your married brothers, cousins or uncles, your reaction would probably be different!
Nonsense!

😁😁😁

I believe Buhari is the President of Nigeria.
You say, no: it's Peter Obi.

Now, would it make any sense if I get angry & start insulting & cursing you because you're believing a lie?

You don't get angry at those who don't believe what you believe if indeed it's the truth...
If you are sure what you believe is the TRUTH, why are you triggered by those who don't believe it?
I believe Jesus is the Son of God.
I believe there's no salvation without Him.
There are billions who don't believe it.

That's their problem, not mine, honestly...
If I get upset & angry because they don't believe what I believe, there's something fundamentally wrong.
That's why those who get triggered when I insist nobody was killed at the Lekki Toll Gate incident amuse me.
If indeed you believe people were killed, why are you angry at me?

Why/how did David defeat Goliath?

Because he SAID so.
It was a battle of words.

Goliath SPOKE:
"Am I a dog, that you come to me with sticks?"
And he cursed David in the name of his gods.
1 Samuel 17:43.

He spoke WORDS.
He sent forth CURSES.
He was irritated by the teenager.
Goliath spoke further:
"Come, I will give your flesh to the vultures & to the beasts of the field.!"
1 Samuel 17:44.

David responded with WORDS also:
"You come to me with a sword, a spear & a shield: but I come to you in the name of the Lord of hosts...
...the God of the armies of Israel, whom whom you have defied.
Today, the Lord will deliver you into my hand & I will kill you, take off your head & give the carcases of the Philistines to the vultures & the wild beasts of the earth...

I remember when I was in a church to preach one Sunday morning.
I got there very early.
There were a few guys setting up the instruments, microphones & stuff.
I removed my shoes & joined them, carrying loudspeakers, fixing up the TV screens & all that.
It was actually fun...
😁
Then one of the Church leaders came in:
Ah! No! Pastor Harry (I'm not a pastor, they never listen!)! You can't be doing this!
He went on to tell me I should be in the office, nobody should see me yet.
I should come out just before the message (like a village masquerade)...
That way, the flock would be more receptive to my message.
If they see me now without shoes, carrying loudspeakers, how will they be receptive to my message when it's time for the word? "See Finish" will enter, he concluded.
That is the template we run on our Churches today.

I was at the mechanic's before the election in 2015.
I was sat with a few other guys who came to fix their cars too.
We got talking about the coming elections.
I showed them my voter's card: I asked how many of them had one.
None.
I asked the mechanics.
None had a card.
I asked those selling spare parts & batteries, the vulcanizers, etc.
None.
Most (if not all) were Southerners.
I asked the Northerners who sell water, sell bread, tea & noodles in the shacks close by.
They all had their cards.
Even the guy who cuts nails & shaved beards had!
The Northerner maiguard had.
The Big Man house owner didn't.
I was with a friend yesterday & he said a Northern Senator told him in his constituency, he collected the cards from INEC & distributed them to their owners, using okada riders.
How many Southern Senators can do that?

PRIDE & HUMILITY

I was a staff of a Bank.
An architect, in charge of the building & maintenance of bank buildings.
I usually hold meetings with contractors on site once in a while to check work progress, vis-à-vis timelines.

Of course, as the architect, I was a big boy...
😎
I'd go to site & strut my stuff, the contractor would be saying "yes sir, yes sir" to me.

Why wouldn't he? I could, with a stroke of my pen, blacklist him & he wouldn't get any contract from the bank again!
So they treat me as "Oga".
I was the HNIC!

Until one fateful day...
😁
A new contractor was given a branch to build.
I went to handover the site to the contractor.
He sent his engineer to take over the site- he didn't come himself!
Who does he think he is???
I had my eyes on him from that day.
The day came for the site meeting.
He was absent!
😡

WHO ARE YOUR FRIENDS?
(1st Kings 12:1-20).
I read a thread by Yinka Ogunnubi @yinkanubi a few weeks ago.
He wrote on how his house got burnt & how friends & Church rallied round him to get him back on his feet again.
I imagine that happening to me: who will I turn to...?
Who can I rely on in times of trouble?
Probably @judefash, @GbengaWemimo & @SOgidigbo.

I don't have many friends.
Maybe 10, thereabouts.
But close friends? Much fewer.

There are dependable friends like Yinka's.
But there are friends that bring you trouble.
Like Rehoboam's...
King Solomon died.
His son, Rehoboam was crowned king in his stead.
The people asked the new king a favour:
Give us tax relief, Your Majesty!
Reduce VAT!
Your dad stressed us out!
Reduce the stress!
End SARS!
End SWAT!
Open the borders!
Lift the curfew!
Fix hospitals!
