It’s in the nature “Be careful of the scorpions 🦂 in your life
“It’s in their nature”
There was a scorpion 🦂 about to be destroyed on a river bed and a frog 🐸 was swimming in the river nearby. The scorpion quickly shouted out to the frog to save him as the fire 🔥 engulfed most of the bushes. Saying, “Please save me”. I’m about to die. However, the frog said “absolutely not, your going to kill me. You crazy”, but still the scorpion pleaded constantly. Somehow the frog finally gave in. Then decided to allow the scorpion to climb on its back and help it across the river. But as soon as the scorpion reached safely across the river bed. It’s tail went into the air, and came down swiftly, stinging the frog, and poisoned him. The frog in its dying breath looked up and said, but why, “I just saved you. The scorpion replied, “Because it’s in MY NATURE
Be careful of the people who you call friends whether man or woman. So for the woman who you court, be mindful of the desires of her heart for that will determine if she supports you or not.

You must cultivate her (Water her with the right nutrients)
As the leader of your home, you must understand your role as the man and the head of the household and it is your duty and your job to reassure your woman through careful investment of time, energy and resources.
A husband practices husbandry or cultivation. Like a master gardener, his job is to nurture and tend to his wife that she brings forth flowers.
You can’t expect an Angel to exist in hell and not change. Whatever you give a woman she multiplies, you give her food, she will make you a meal, you give her a house to live in, she will give you a home, you give her love, she will give you a baby, you give her hell, and she will give you nightmares.
Proverbs 31:10 “It is hard to find a good wife, because babe is worth more than rubies”

Why people like to gain attention by losing respect 🫡
In this social media age, where attention is the new form of currency. People are willing to do anything to gain popularity, we see many people on social media trying to get our attention daily.
Our Lord and savior Jesus Christ is the only one ☝️ who should be getting our attention more than the things and people of this world.
The enemy/adversary wants to fool people to believe that being an idiot is the best way to get the right attention in order to be relevant and valid. It’s all a lie, trickery at its finest.
From rappers to entertainers to sports stars. They will do the necessary things in order to get the worst attention.
Proverbs 13:5 “Good people hate what is false, but the wicked do shameful and disgraceful things”

Take your time with your life and learn to read and write with understanding and become a scholar. You will take note of how polished you will become if you take the time to educate yourself.
Learn to pay attention to detail. Your mind will only expand if you develop that awareness and focus if you practice. Stew do your mind, soul, and spirit and create a solid plan.
Then become hungry and fearless.

What you don’t know can hurt you
In this world especially in countries like America, everything you say can and will be used against you like a court of law. So observe more and speak less.
Have a learning spirit and be aware of how to use information, always learn what is new and incoming and assess that information very carefully.
Ask that girl as many stupid questions as you like to not stay ignorant and to make informed decisions, it you want to pursue a real relationship.
As men we need to get smarter and wiser because the society that we live in will destroy us for being unaware and foolish

Why are Kings 👑 important
Kings are unique men who are positioned to change the course of history and enable nations to either flourish or decay.
Kings are icons who can even give hope depending on the type of crisis that is going on in that region.
Many see Kings as men who leads, conquers, rules and protects and provides. However a true King is both a loyal servant and a leader. A King has great imagination and doesn’t need to imitate another Kingdom but focus on their own.
As men we must learn to manage our lives and own affairs so that we can be respected and trusted with leadership. So when we officially have our own Kingdom we can manage it in a way that will turn out beautiful.
Proverbs 21:1 “The Lord can control a Kings mind as he controls a river, he can directs it as he pleases”

Some men are born great,
Some men achieve greatness,
Some have greatness thrust upon them.
- William Shakespeare

There are many types of Kings, some are good and some are evil 👿. Who you choose to become, depends on your grievances. Do you want to serve people or serve yourself. The choice is yours.
Men are ordinary,
Kings are legendary.

Don’t make your belly your God. Obesity series: Part 2 of 3
In Christianity gluttony is a sin that though some people may laugh about, and accept that it’s not harmful. Unlike other sins like fornication, alcoholism, adultery, murder among others which are more prevalent and known, gluttony is a huge problem on the effects of the body.
We understand that the sun of gluttony is greed, and a form of idolatry, it is a choice, to self love ❤️, comfort and control through food.
Bible passage for reference:
Ezekiel 16:49 “Now this was the sun of your sister Sodom. She and her daughters were arrogant, overfed, and unconcerned they did not help the poor and needy.”

What makes men insecure and how to cure it.
Most masculine men don’t trust women. They see what women are capable of and don’t want women who will easily compromise their position in life. Women are supposed to reflect their men.
Men tend to have low self esteem and low confidence when they don’t get much support in life and can easily become resentful and bitter. And if they didn’t have a strong role model or a positive father figure they can suffer as well.
To break the cycle and cure your insecurities with women, men need to find their purpose in life. Your purpose is what is going to keep you focused.
You can compete with women and their beauty. Why would you? Stay on your grind and watch things grow. So be careful of the type of woman you choose to be with. Not all are bad but in this modern era most are dangerous.
Women are not going to change most of their ways. We as men have to self improve and change. That means getting in shape in the gym, going back to school for a better profession or trade. Or some program to gain skills. But always seek to invest in yourself as a man.
Proverbs 7:27 “Her house is a highway to the grave, leading down to the chambers of death”

Don’t make your belly your GOD. Obesity series Part 1 of 3
Men work very hard and some work demanding physical jobs. Due to the stress of working, some men need to eat, and some men eat a lot. Which leads to them being overweight and obese. We term obesity as when your body weight is greater than what is considered normal or healthy.
Being overweight or obese greatly increases the risk of developing a chronic disease 🦠, such as musculoskeletal disorders, like arthritis, tendinitis, low back, neck, foot or knee pains. Also forms of chronic diseases are diabetes, hypertension (high blood pressure), high cholesterol, and heart disease (GBD 2015 Obesity Collaborations, 2017, World Health Organization, 2018 )

What to do if your a single mother with a son and don’t know how to raise him to be a man
Having a son is a blessing, and it’s a shame that it didn’t work out with the father of the of your child. Whether it was for good reasons or for bad reasons. Your son is going to always wonder why his father didn’t try to physically or emotionally be here for him.
For children don’t take advice, they follow examples. As his mother you will now need to surround your son with positive role models him. Whether they come from the church, the schools, the construction industry, the community as leaders, it’s now your job to find ways in which your son can get an opportunity to see how a real man operates.
What you don’t want is for him to go and find the gangsters, the drug dealers and the rappers. He will need street smarts but there are less dangerous ways to get them. Like for example from the street hustlers because he will at least learn a skill which is how to sell. This is a very good and learnable skill.
Proverbs 17: 21 “It is sad to have a foolish child; there is no joy in being the parent of a fool”
