Oxymoron!!! When people start pretending life is oxymoron- Daniel Odoi. Oxymoron are two words that contradict each other example sinful saint, good devil, cruel kindness, abundant poverty etc. According to the Holy Bible, Job was a righteous man. His life became miserable when God gave Satan the permit to tempt him. In the course of tempting him, Satan killed Job's children, took away his riches and devastated Job's health.   The life of Job’s three friends (Eliphaz, Bildad and Zophar) was oxymoron when he faced this catastrophic situation.   In summary, you just listen to how one of his pretending friends (Eliphaz) presented his case with the notion of consoling him: “you will come to the grave in full vigor, like sheaves gathered in season. We have examined this, and it is true. So hear it and apply it to yourself” (Job 5:26-27). Are you disappointed by the actions of people you trusted the most?

Keep it up!!! Dedication: To Miss Mariama Sulemana, a member of the Pentecost Students and Associates (PENSA), UCC, Ghana who completed not long ago. In the junior and senior high schools of my country, a student who usually scores good marks in examinations is accorded with the statement ‘keep it up’.   These words are very powerful and really motivational when one takes time to think about it carefully.

In fact, there was a particular message I wanted to deliver to a certain category of people which has been fulfilled. But here am I being trapped with the words ‘keep it up’. Well, let me keep it up until I have nothing to write. Dear reader never forget these powerful words in your life. In ...

When the game is over  As a person, some events of life keep me in the classroom of lessons. One of such is the passing on of mankind; you will not live forever. The world is filled with evils, lies, pain and death and you can’t hide from it, you can only face it. Sorry, I don’t intend to make you sad but that is the reality. Ha-ha, rejoice! There are good things too, through Christ Jesus our Lord, if you don’t have him seek for him. In fact, Life is a journey not so much to a destination, there are no winners and there are no losers. Frankly speaking, the person you may recognize useless today might be the one to help you out tomorrow. So you see, who won?   I personally believe victory should be counted by the number of lives saved, your impact to the society and the legacy you leave behind. Dear reader, what have you done for your generation? After a football match it is obvious for spectators to tell who performed well and who ...
