Hustling Life In Europe

Europe as it is, to many people living in an under-developing or third world country is the land of greener pastures; as America is said to be "the land of opportunity".
Many immigrants come to Europe for greener pastures only to be faced with a harsh reality-- there is no such thing as greener pastures. Some end their lives in prison or refugee camp while others are living in deep depression.

In recent times, I have become so judgemental of black living in Europe; particularly Nigerians. This is as a result of the story i was told when come in contact with some Africans (blacks) here in Germany. Most of these people came to Europe with only visiting Visa and never returned to their country. Of course this might not be news to some people but then to me it was news and i find it very interesting and very touching because i live here and i have seen a lot of these people...

Most times, i have sympathy on some and others i puzzled because of the stories these people tells the European government are unimaginable. On the other hand, they look at the blacks people as... who cannot be trusted. And as people who are not intelligent. 
For instance, a preacher who graduated here as an Engineer said that "even when you seems to be brilliant or intelligent than their citizen, you can not get the same grade with them. " Another example, my classmate in my language course saw my passport and asked me if that is a refugee passport? I quickly answered and said no, this is a Nigerian passport and i showed him all the previous visas on my passport. I don't even blame him because most blacks or Nigerians don't even have their passport anymore. Some throw their passport away because they want an EU passport. 

I began to wonder, why? Because some of These people are Christians and they tells a lot of lies, forged documents and even fabricated stories just to have their stay in Europe. I am so irritated with my people, because i believe in the illusion; that all these blacks (African) who are living illegal in Europe are the reasons why the European look down on blacks (Africans) generally. Even though, there are other European who are not in the EU or Asia who are also migrating to other areas in Europe or USA for better living yet the black people are being treated unfair in Europe and other part of the world. 

I am so worried after seeing and hearing how people live here. Some who are graduates-
OND, HND and even master holder- are now bus drivers in Europe. ( few learn other profession and other went back to university here as well; in order to work in a better position or to earn a good wages to will enable them to have a good standard of living). 
After spending and investing so much in their education back home. 

I have truly repented  for being too quick to judge other people.... After reading about the news of the girls who were taken away from school during their examination and the bombing in Nigeria, it is enough reason for people in this state to seek for a place of refuge. Nevertheless, there are right ways of going about it, if people want to see the other part of 
the world or if they want to explore the world. 

Meanwhile, i have been wondering and searching for an answer, for these questions: why is it that they are no Africa country that is yet developed? Why is it that even born-again 
Christians have to lie or do some certain things that are not biblical before they can make way? I heard our President (President Goodluck Jonathan ) said that Nigeria is not poor but 
the money is not in circulation. Why is the money not in circulation if the country is rich as claimed?

I want to use this oppertunity to inform some brilliant young ones out there to please Apply for Student visa in other developed countries instead of coming for visiting and seeking  for asylum in Europe or else where. Nigeria have got a lot of intelligent and talented youth. 
Dream Big, don't  dream of coming to Europe to work as cleaner or live on social welfare. 
Build yourself. Think of people like Prof. Wole Soyinka among others who can be rank internationally. AND PLEASE, #bringbackourgirls# they need the Education.

THE EVIL ACTS OF THE BOKO HARAM

I have not written or discussed about the Boko Haram, until I viewed one of the most recent video of the sect. In this video the leader of the sect Abubakar Shekau said, " Our fighters stormed the Bama barracks" while seated on a mat and flanked by a group of armed men. " This is a victory from Allah,"he said, and claimed to have destroyed "21 armoured tanks, killed multitudes in the deadly attack. He also said that, his men would have eaten their enemies, but Allah forbids cannibalism.

Boko Haram, I have good news for you. Jesus loves you! It is not too late to turn a new leaf. Let us live in peace with one another. Make love and not war. If you claim that you are fighting for Islam religion, I want to believe that the Islam is a peaceful religion as claimed. Why don't you leave the fight and judgement for the almighty Allah. I hope you are not being use by some politician... Stop sacrificing innocent soul for nothing... You are not the first to kill people, don't feel like a hero. Do you have a family? How would you feel if someone kill your entire family in one day for a cause they knew not? I think, this is part of the reason some European do not believe in any religion. 

Boko Haram meaning Western Education is forbiden: I want to inform you that Western Education is part of civilization and it has nothing to do with any religion. And I want to let you know that it might be difficult for us as Nigerians to understand each other due to the various ethic group in the country. I want to agree, that Western Education is very important as it create room for easy communication. For instance, if you have not spoken in english in your video, no one would have understood your course. Expect for your ethic group, and I believe the message is not for them only. It was a national message and that was the why you used the official language (English language) in your videos... Hehe lol! I can not believe in this 21st Century they are still people like you who are being used to destroye humanity all in the name of one religion or politics or whatever reason.
However, my question is this; How would you feel on the day of judgement, when you died and you are standing in front of God/Allah and you were told the religion you were practicing was the wrong religion?

What is religion without humanity?  When will you end or stop the killing? Is when you have damage lives and properties beyond any reasonable measure or when you kill or the poor people of my beloved country (Nigeria)?
Shekau , use your power to liberity Nigeria from its corrupt practice and not to allow yourself to be manipulated by the bad governance.

However, Nigeria is not a christian or muslim religion nation, both religion was introduced by European and Al Arabiya people. We have a long tradition of struggle for our national rights, reaching back to the very beginnings of white settlement who brainwash us with the so core religion. Of course GOD is so real but this people have tried to replace the existence of GOD with religion's rituals
It has not been genuine, be it academic or politics or traditional faith or denominational. With other religious worldview, to be objective, unbiased and very unfortunately this is done out of arrogance and ignorance. 

In recent time, I have be able to study about some religious. To be honest with you, of all the religiou; I found JESUS very interesting... He is the only one who has the power to forgive man sins. Jesus Christ, however, never alluded to any personal sin. Instead, Jesus forgave 


people of their sin and he is still forgive us of our sin... Buddha, never claimed that he was righteous or sinlessness. Muhammad also admitted that he was in need of forgiveness.
And now the Boko Haram claimed they are fighting for Islam by killing poor innocent children. I want us to separate religion from politics in order not to sin against our creator and humanity.
LOVE is the solution to all war.

MALALA

Though i maybe a child, i have a right. Though i maybe a girl, yes i need education. I maybe poor and needy but i have a voice. Not the Government of the nation or money can deprived me of this right. Nor Religion can take this right from me. Not only I have this right but all the female in the world.

The Church and The Poor

Watch out for end time Pastors; these things are really bothering me. If I have not seen the hand of God in my life or if I have not prayed and my prayers were answered or if I have not dreamed and it came to passed. I would have be a free-thinker. I believe in God and I believe in Jesus Christ. Christianity is not a religion; it is our faith in Christ.

What is gospel? The gospel is the act of doing good. But today people use the gospel to enrich themselves and their family; especially in Africa... ( case study Nigeria). I am not against it, if people bless the pastors with their substances and i am not saying pastors should not have good way of living, but I think too much of everything is bad, as it could be refer to as greed or covetousness. 

I have come to realized that some of these people have turned the church to business center. They brain wash the people, they pick the portion of the bible that suit their message and they used it. I am tired of pastors saying be part of my ministry, i am tired of pastors saying send your tithe to my church, i am tired of pastors saying pay some amount of money before i pray for you, i am tired of pastors who want you to lie in the name of favour, i am tired of pastors who are after what they can get from the members as offering or tithes, i am tired of pastors using offering and seeds money buying expensive shoes, suit, luxrious cars, flying with first class ticket or private Jet.

They know all the bible passages to use, to justify their extravagant or flamboyant way of living. For instance, if you ask a pastor why he own a private Jet, he will answered by saying Jesus rode on a brand new donkey. If you ask a pastor why he is taking money from the poor, he will answered by saying the widow of Zarephath gave  Elijah her last meal. If you ask a pastor why he is wearing expensive perfume, he will say the woman poured expensive oil on Jesus feet, if you ask a pastor why is he wearing  expensive suit, he will say after Jesus death the people were fighting for His rope: if you ask a pastor why is he living in a mansion, he will answered by saying in my father' house there are many mansion. 

 The one that surprise me most is happening here in Europe; case study ( africa pastors), when a pastor come to Europe for visiting: with a visiting visa, he wont go back. Instead he seek Asylum, if you ask why do pastors seek Asylum Europe, he will answered by saying Jesus was 'an undocumented immigrant in Egypt. 

Above all, pastors children and family are having the best of life. Lot of them are schooling in Europe with church money. Most of the people who gave this money to the church are people who could not eat good meal or send their ward to good schools. Most of the churches universities today: the people you will find there are parish pastors' children and the rich people children.

 I never thought much about Mr Bill Gates before now, because I heard he is a free thinker: until recently that he got an Award in Germany for his good heart towards the poor and I fell in love with his personality. If all the pastors in the world will do like mr Gates. I think it will be nice. 

A Bishop was sued in Germany for flying with first class ticket to India to see the poor and for using Billion of Euro  to renovate his house...
I am not here to judge or criticize our religion leaders but i am appealing for a change. Let our Pastors or the church remember to bless the poor. Christ did a lot for the poor, He told a rich man to go and sell all he has and give the money to poor people. Let this be our motto: 
" i have food, clothes, home, car e.t.c i am comfortable now i must bless the poor". Go look for a life you can transform. Let's live for one another. 

"The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,"- Luke 4:18

Help One Poor Live Longer

Sometimes we ask ourselves, why is it that some people are rich and some are poor? I think it has be like that since the creation of the world... But then, the rich are not to mock the the poor. They are to feed, give to them or assist them in becoming rich. What did our Lord Jesus Christ say about poverty?

According to the account of St Luke 14:13, " But when thou makest a feast, call the poor, the maimed, the lame, the blind;" (Luke 6:20-21) And he lifted up his eyes on his disciples and said, Blessed be ye poor; for yours is the kingdom of God. Blessed are ye that hunger now: for ye shall be filled. Blessed are ye that weep now: for ye shall laugh.
According to the book of Deuteronomy 15:11, for the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shat open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land. From these bible account, we can see that the fate of man as being poor or rich has been from the origin of the world.
Oftentime, the solution or question has been; how to eradicate poverty.
Now the question is, can poverty be eradicated or can the world be free from having poor people? I think the answer to this question is "NO" Because as seen from the holy book; The old and new Testament confirmed poverty as part of humanity. 

Although, poverty is vary from continent to continent: in the developed countries poor people have access to good standard of living: such as; food, shelter, water, health care and good road etc. Moreso, the government make provision for the unemployment, by giving them all the neccessary basic of living i.e housing, food and allowance for other needs. (Case study, Germany)...

While in Africa, Asia and India are where we find extreme poverty; with people without home, people living on the streets. Even in the course of surviving some people left their home and started living on the street, some find help and other ended up in adject poverty.
It is a known fact, that poverty can not be eradicated but it can be reduce. How can poverty be reduce? Poverty can be reduce by the following ways: By Empowering The Youth of a given society, Antipoverty programs, Skill Building, Help from Religion Leaders, Government should make Provision for less Privilege ones, Individual and the Society at large can reduce poverty by Effortless Ways To Support a Good Cause. 

Inconclusion, it is clear that poverty can not be eradicated but it can be reduced. Every Individual should have a positive mind set. (Individualism) "The poor shall never cease out of the land" it does not mean you have to be one, you can walk out of poverty to become a wealthy person.

Tips:
Think Big
Dream Big
Build your personality
Act like a rich person
Make friend with rich people
Have a fatansy ( with God all things are possible )
Above all, work and pray.

The Love That Never Fails

What is Love?
According to the online dictionary, a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person. A feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child or friend.

According to Gila Manolson, ''Many believe love is a sensation that magically generates when Mr or Ms Right appears. No wonder so many are single.
To the Jewish mind, it isn't unexpected at all. What we value most in ourselves, we value most in others. God created us to see ourselves as good (hence our need to either rationalize or regret our wrongdoings so, too we seek goodness in others''.

According to Queendaline Schneider (2012), ''The love of God lies in those that do his will''
I believe God is love and if we love him we must do what he want us to do. He created us for us to carry on his assignment here on earth and by so doing we must obey his commandment and do his will. God want us to live a happy and filfilled life. And he want us to Him with all our heart, he wants  to love our friends, family and neighbors as ourselves. I must tell you this, if truely we love God we will do what he expect us to. And if we love our neighbors we will do to them what we expect them to do to us. It will be nice if we all can show love to one another, only then the world can regain its paradise on earth..

According to the bible, the book of 1Corinthians 13; 1-13
If  I could speak in any langauge in heaven or on earth but didn't love others, I would only be making meaningless noise like a loud gong or a clanging cymbal.
If I had the gift of prophency and if I knew all the mysteries of the future and knew everything about everything, but did not love others, what good would I be?
And if I had the gift of faith so that I could speak to mountain and it move, without love I would be no good to anybody.
If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn't love others I would be of no value whatsoever.

Love is patient and kind
Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
Love does not demand its own way.
Love is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged.
It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful and endures through every circustance.

There are three things; Faith, Hope and Love but the greatest is love.

God's own definition of Love; Please study the followings bible passages; Matthew 22; 37-40, John 14 ;15, John 15; 10 , 1John 2; 5, 1John 5;2, 1John 5;3.
Love and blessings. Stay loved.
