TGIF - Special!

It is TGIF again! TGIF is short for Thank God It's Friday. In fact, we ought to thank God for everyday not just Fridays and for everything for when your heart is always thankful, you become a grateful person. You are grateful for everything. Grateful persons are never greedy and could not be selfish because they understood it is never about them. Grateful people have no need to harm others. They are very secure and have great peace and harmony about them as they understood the universe, the cosmos and the truth. "Blessed are the pure in heart, for they shall see God. (Matthew 5:8).

TGIF!! Thank God It's Friday! This week is special. We will say Thank God It's Good Friday! Why do people say TGIF!? Simple.

You could have been prosecuted but He has already proclaimed in His words:  Isaiah 40:22 - He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, and its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in. Life Is Short And Full Of Trouble Job 14: 1 “Mortals, born o...

Good Friday And Easter

There is world of difference working a five-day week and five and a half-day week. Everybody was working on Saturdays for half a day those days and if you got to work a little later, your Saturday was gone. Then you do what you got to do on a Sunday and you are back to the daily grind. Due to such anticipation, Sundays weren't too appealing nor exciting and so you have the Monday Blues which actually started on Sundays. With smarter work and technology, more effective systems, five-day work week became quite the norm. With it, your weekend starts on Fridays and Saturdays and Sundays became truly a weekend. This is important as all work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Still, people continue to suffer from the Monday Blues. Why? Overindulgence even on a Sunday? So, Friday and Saturday are the best days of the week and for letting the hair down, unwinding or heading to meet friends or dining, Friday night is the best day of all. And so it went "Thank God It's Friday!...
