When my friend got married, she and her husband didn’t have much. They rented a small room in a crowded compound. Their mattress was on the floor, their kitchen was basically one burner, and there were months when they had to calculate whether to buy food or pay a bill 💵 . But they had plans. Her husband worked wherever he could find work loading goods, driving when someone needed a driver, helping at building sites.My friend started selling snacks from the front of their room. At first, she would make a small tray of chin-chin and buns and walk around offices and shops trying to sell them. Some days she came home with almost everything she left with. There were days she cried because she felt embarrassed 😞

One afternoon, she returned home and found her husband sitting outside. He had been sent home from work. He looked at her and said, I don’t know how long I can keep doing this. She sat beside him. For a while, neither of them spoke. Then she opened the small nylon bag containing the day’s sales. She counted the money 💰. It was ₦7,800. She gave him ₦5,000. Use this for transport tomorrow. Go and look for something.
He refused. You need it for the business. She pushed the money into his hand. Then we’ll start again tomorrow. They didn’t suddenly become rich. The following months were still 😣. Sometimes the landlord reminded them about rent. Sometimes they borrowed money from friends. Sometimes they ate what they could afford, not what they wanted. But they kept trying.

My friend eventually started taking small food orders.
Her husband found steadier work. Then, slowly, something changed. People started referring customers to her. One order became five. Five became twenty. Years later, they moved into their own apartment. It wasn’t a mansion. There was no expensive car waiting outside. But on the first night in that new place, my friend sat on the floor because they hadn’t bought enough furniture yet. She looked around and started crying 😢. Her husband thought something was wrong. She smiled through her tears. I just remembered that room we started from. They both laughed. They knew they still had a long way to go. But for the first time, they could look around and say. At least, we didn’t remain where we started. And maybe that’s what starting from nothing really looks like.

Not overnight success. Not suddenly becoming rich.
Just two tired people refusing to give up every time life knocks them down.
If you’re currently building your life from scratch, what is the one thing you’re holding on to? ❤️

Jesus told a story about ten virgins who took their lamps and went out to wait for the bridegroom. Five were wise. They carried extra oil because they didn’t know when he would arrive. The other five were foolish.
They had lamps, but they didn’t prepare enough oil. The bridegroom took longer than expected, and all ten became tired and fell asleep 😴. At midnight, the announcement came. The bridegroom is here, The five wise virgins immediately trimmed their lamps. The foolish ones realized their oil was finished and asked the others to share theirs. But there wasn’t enough for everyone. While they went to buy more, the bridegroom arrived. The door was shut. This parable isn’t only about waiting. It’s about preparation. Sometimes we keep saying, I’ll start tomorrow, I’ll pray tomorrow, I’ll fix my marriage tomorrow, I’ll save money tomorrow, I’ll change tomorrow. But tomorrow isn’t promised. And sometimes, when the opportunity finally comes, preparation can no longer be borrowed from someone else. So this Sunday, ask yourself.

What is one thing you keep postponing that you know you should deal with now?

📖 Matthew 25:1–13

Happy Sunday. 🙏❤️

Happy Sunday umuchukwu
How was your night????
I was nursing my son all through the night
Boys mum is this what you go through.
Up until now my son can’t sleep straight till morning.
He woke up 100 times to suck breast and it’s beginning to way me down. If you don’t give him what he ask for, he will scream 😱 the whole building by that time of the night. It’s beginning to be exhausting for me.
In the morning he will now take him time to nap 😴 very well.
Pls what should I do to stop him or make him sleep straight till morning without him waking in between. Pls help a mother
