Conclusion:
While it is good to apply the practical advice in quotes like these, we must remember that God is the source of all wisdom and when we fear Him and feed on His word, we will be better equipped to escape the snares of life and live victoriously.

Job 28:20-28 (KJV)
“20. Whence then cometh wisdom? and where is the place of understanding?
21. Seeing it is hid from the eyes of all living, and kept close from the fowls of the air.
22. Destruction and death say, We have heard the fame thereof with our ears.
23. God understandeth the way thereof, and he knoweth the place thereof.
“24. For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;
“25. To make the weight for the winds; and he weigheth the waters by measure.
“26. When he made a decree for the rain, and a way for the lightning of the thunder:
“27. Then did he see it, and declare it; he prepared it, yea, and searched it out.
“28. And unto man he said, Behold, the fear of the Lord, that is wisdom; and to depart from evil is understanding.”

    I find these motivational quotes very inspirational….
    Especially the part that talks about experience..
    It so reminds me of my secondary school days..
    Learning from experience, doesn’t mean you should put yourself in the position of learning from a bad experience..
    The experience just doesn’t have to be yours…
    For the God factor, it’s essential we follow Him, keeping all His laws and commandments..
    This post was really soul-lifting….
    I’m elated…..

  • Afiadigwe Nnedinso Rita

    What an interesting, educative and informative post.
    Honestly am really inspired.
    May God almighty give us all His grace to always apply this RICH and HEALTHY post in our daily lives.
    Wonderful post ma.

  • ErnestValentine

    Thank you Dr. Edith Ohaja. You are wisdom personified.

    Reacting to the last quote, I ask, what if I am faced with a horrible situation that has convincing points that opposes the idea that God exists? What should I do?

    • Edith Ohaja

      What you find convincing is based on limited knowledge and misinterpretation of available evidence. All creation, including your very life, points to a Maker, the Almighty God. If you truly want to encounter God, talk to Him to reveal Himself to you. Meanwhile, this post gives the testimony of a well-known American investigative journalist and attorney who was once an atheist but researched and surrendered to Jesus. You can google his name: Lee Strobel. He writes a lot about how he investigated and found proof that there is God.

      https://edithohaja.com/what-have-you-done-with-this-man-by-dave-maynard/

      Cheers!

  • Chukwuma Wilfred

    Wow, each quote has a vital message to pass and obviously, in turn, inspires and directs one’s action. “You can escape the agony of choice by determining to do only the right”, in line with this quote, even the word of God in several places has emphasized this. Hence, the common good (right action) should always be considered at the frontline of all of actions, both in relation to our human might or strength (“the strength you have”, as indicated in one of the quotes), relation to money, etc. Generally, I think this particular quote summarizes almost all the quotes. Thank you, ma, for these wonderful quotes. They are truly wisdom-oriented. God bless you!

    • Edith Ohaja

      God bless you richly too in Jesus’ name.

    • Joseph Chizoba Kingsley

      Thanks for always filling us with your encouraging posts. Whenever I visit the blog posts, I always get encouraged. May God’s blessings never lack in your life as you always make efforts to draw his people nearer to him through your posts.

  • Ejiofor Emmanuel

    Thank you ma for these words of inspiration. This is what we need in times like this. I pray these words never leave my heart…Amen.

    • Abugu faith chinecherem

      Thank you Ma for this wonderful wisdom quotes. Especially the 8th quote, that says “we should not treat money as our master that controls our life and dictate our actions, but as a servant that runs errands for us”.

  • Annabelle Orji

    Wow ma, another amazing set of quotes. Each one seems to have a very important point and different from others. I am a big fan of 10: “When you discover and focus on what you were made for, the Einstein in you will manifest”. Because we are all trying to do the same thing, forgetting that we have our own individual gifts, we begin to feel less than others when we can’t accomplish something, instead of developing our own personal strengths.

  • Emmanuel chibuike

    Positive words spoken at the right time are is like divine medicine that heals the disease of the soul, it works more miracle than the balm of Gilead. A glance at this quote every morning would make one’s day worthwhile. Thanks, Dr Edith, for this is an attempt to heal the land and call to the people on what to hope for.

  • Ugwoke Victor Nnabuike

    In today’s world where there are too many confusions and frustrations, words like these are what we need to make a positive reaction to these situations and have victory over our troubles. Thank you, Dr. Edith Ohaja, for this eye-opener.

    • Edith Ohaja

      Glory to God!

    • Richards Orighomisan

      Very inspiring ma, thanks a lot and thanks for the advice on envy and purpose the at no 14. Until we really understand what we are called to do we would really spend less time envying and wishing to be like others. Many people succeed doing what they have not be been called to do. God’s measurement of success is you succeeding in that which He has called you to do.
      And someone might ask, “what’s my purpose? How do I know what I have been called to do? What’s my mission? It’s easy, go back to your creator, He knows best what He’s called you for

  • Nnaka Chiagoziem Prince

    Wow each quote is very important and necessary if one must live peaceably and happy, every step of the way in life. God has guaranteed that if we can put our trust in him and not on our fellow man, that he can do anything for us as long as we ask in line with his words.

    • Agnes

      I really enjoyed every quotes but the tenth one struck me… How do you start living in Gods purpose for you? And what if you’ve prayed and yet nothing? What if you look inwardly and still found nothing so spectacular that feels like God’s purpose? What do you do? I wonder..

      • Edith Ohaja

        Pray and be still. If you hear nothing, check what you love most. What you’re passionate about without being pushed is often an indication of what God wants you to engage yourself with. Bless you!

  • Uchechukwu Felix Ibeziako

    One needs these quote every step pf the way to advance in life. Holding on to these quote and holding on to God will drive us to any height we want to attain
    God bless you ma.

  • Ezeh Blessing

    I’m so blessed reading this post. The quotes are so powerful and inspiring. No 2 caught my attention “Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any time.” Looking at our contemporary society, the main cause of frustration and depression is loss of hope. When one is faced with challenges, he/she thinks the whole world is against them, not really understanding that the darkness is temporary and meant to shape us. May God help us to face our challenges with courage and so much wisdom.

    • Edith Ohaja

      Amen. And may God’s mercy forgive any sins in our lives that attract unnecessary challenges and help us to live exemplary lives always in Jesus’ name.

  • Urama Emmanuel

    This is realy interesting and motivational….. With this quotes applied on our daily lives, will can atain a greater night in life…… May God continue to use u in influencing the youths of our time

  • Onoyima Juliet

    Am a fan of the one that says… Never leave yourself at the mercy of others.
    So inspiring

  • Euphemia Nwele

    Because I always carry a mindset that whatever is mine is mine, I feel number 7 is directed at me. You keep coming up with amazing things that makes me ponder. Your blog is an inspiration.
    Thank you ma

  • Kat

    Your quotes are always pleasing to read, aunty. I really love number 12 which says that we should be excited about life because the wonders we’re yet to experience could exceed the wonders that we’ve seen. There’s really no need to lose faith in anything we’ve been asking the good Lord to do for us. Surely he will do it and when he does, it’ll be all the more fulfilling. I believe there’s always something better that may yet come, so I keep on being happy with all that I have and do right now, marveling in my experiences. ☺. I pray the wonders we’re yet to experience exceed our expectations in Jesus’ name. Thank u so much, aunty!

    • Sugbaza Benjamin Victor

      Allowing God take control of our lives and putting him first in everything we do is the best wisdom a man can ever acquire in his life,negative situations shouldn’t be a good reason to loose hope on God. I pray God always see us through any situation we find ourselves in.

    • Oguamanam Favour Adaeze

      Amazing quotes!! I’m really inspired and motivated by both these lovely quotes, truly wisdom comes from God. May God bless you Dr. Edith.

  • Nnachetam Favour

    Ma, from the 4th quote that says “You can escape the agony of choice by determining to do only the right” what if you are faced with making one choice over another and they both seems right, how do you go about it?

    • Edith Ohaja

      Thanks for asking, my dear! You pray for guidance. The quote is referring to a situation where in your life, it’s anything goes. Things you would obviously not consider if you had determined to live right will be so tempting because the enemy makes bad things to seem so alluring. It is only when people accept them that they find out they are not worth they were hyped to be or that they are very harmful. May God help us to weed out such negative choices ab initio by committing ourselves to living right in Jesus’ name.

  • Nwankwo Amanda

    Omggg, this just spoke to me, just what I needed to hear at this time of my life.
    Especially the one where you said we shouldn’t be at the mercy of anyone, and always be in control of our lives.
    God bless you so much for this.

  • Uche, David Ihechukwu

    The foremost wisdom a man can attain is the wisdom of letting God take control of the wheel steering his life. For when God is in control, our weaknesses turns to strength. Our hope is rooted firm and deep, we have the ability to resist temptations and vices of the world, for we will also have the wisdom to keep what is meant to be private in our lives, private. We will have the wisdom and power to take control of our life’s situation, and not depending solely on others. What a heart warming post.

  • Ezeorah Cynthia Somtochukwu

    Wonderful quotes ma. Pray God continues to inspire you to do more.

  • Ezeoyili Ogochukwu Perpetual

    This is really inspiring Ma. Life is full of challenges and these amazing quotes will be a guide in our everyday Life. From the first quote; ” Let God, rather than the world or the media, set your life’s agenda ”, I think we should put God first in all that we do and then let him set our life’s agenda. But Ma, i want to know, if this quote concurs with the situation where a person gets inspiration or is moved to set his or her life’s agenda especially from what they see in the media and what they hear from people? or is this first quote simply saying that one should put everything aside and let God set our life’s agenda for us?.

    • Edith Ohaja

      The agenda that God sets for you will be confirmed by people and perhaps by things in the media that exercise your heart. What is wrong is to run ahead of God and choose what you want to do with your life without consulting Him. Bless you!

  • Ibe Arinzechukwu Christian

    Wonderful tips. I would want to emphasize more on the fifth quote which says sex is not a guarantor for longetivity or commitment in a relationship.
    A lot of girls complain that guys walk away from them simply because they refused giving them sex. Some are even tempted to give away their virginity just to keep the guys. Let me be very blunt here…Virginity may not be the real reason why the guys go away, yes, no doubt, there are several guys who want sex, and if they don’t get it, they walk away. The problem may not be the virginity or the sex…
    The story of the Ten virgins in the Bible reveals that both the wise and the foolish were virgins; the other Five were not allowed seeing the bridegroom not because they were virgins or because they lost their virginity. NO! But because they were foolish and they were called foolish because they had no EXTRA OIL . And the EXTRA OIL here is CHARACTER! Most girls do not have extra oil to sustain any relationship, while many brag about their virginity, that’s all they have to offer.
    Aside your virginity or sex, what do you have to offer to a man?
    – Can you support him spiritually?
    – Can you support him physically?
    – How about mentally?
    All you do is demand money for bag, shoes, clothes, and outing, making him spend unnecessarily. Have you ever sat him down and help him plan his future?
    Has he ever seen you as someone he can confide in? How many times has he come being in a state of dilemma seeking advice from you? Rather than jumping from one club to another.
    And for the virgins, they forget that virginity ends after the wedding, but EXTRA OIL continues… Yes… Nobody is perfect. We all have our bad sides…
    BUT… Try to be a woman that a man will always regret losing for the rest of his life. Be that woman that your man can never afford to lose to another man. Build your man to your taste…
    And stop looking for a ready-made husband. Force yourself on that rich dude that you didn’t work with to achieve what he has, and hear the story of your life from him one day. – Did You Work With me to achieve all I’ve got?- Ever since you’ve entered this house, what have you added to what you met?
    NOTE:
    – There’s just nothing as best as building up your man yourself. And you will forever earn his respect.

    Thank you, Ma. God bless you!

  • Añulika Iwoba

    Just like Providence knew I needed these!
    I’m sorely touched by the first quote.
    Yes, the agenda setting function of the media unarguably accounts for much of the discontent we suffer today.
    When we leave the ordering of our lives to fellow men and a misguided society, what can we really expect.

    Choice in itself is a very broad concept and we can only manage it’s overwhelming consequence through the planned effort to act right.
    These are all very helpful tips for conscious living and obedience to God.

    • Anabude oluchi

      Nice, looking closely at point 14 rather than envy each other, we should celebrate others’ success because when we do that, we open for ourselves doors of better opportunities. Even though we may not be where we desire to be, the future holds great things and our hearts’ desires can only be perfected by the intervention of God.

  • Maduabuchi ebube p

    This is so inspiring. Life is full of challenges and these amazing quotes will be a guide in our everyday Life. From the first quote; ” Let God, rather than the world or the media, set your life’s agenda ”, I think we should put God first in all that we do and then let him set our life’s agenda. You are highly blessed ma.

  • Ajibe Chinonye

    These are truly wonderful and inspirational quotes.My best was the “don’t live at the mercy of others,get in control of your life” quote,it really spoke to me
    I also have mine own quote which says “mind over matter”it has helped me to get through a lot of issues.

  • Ifeanyichukwu Eunice Onyinye

    Inspiring quotes that wouldn’t leave my heart in a hurry, thanks Aunty for this touching piece

  • egbo Rita Somtochukwu

    This is indeed inspirational. Quotes naturally is wisdom oriented; it helps to elevate one, it builds this high morale not to talk of being accompanied with life. The one that caught my attention is the last quote ‘serving the devil is a poor choice because you will lose more than u will ever gain’, we shouldn’t serve the devil because it won’t lead us anywhere. We should fellowship with God. This quote is also among the ten commandments God commanded us to avoid, so obedience to Christ through his word is highly important. May God bless and enrich you with so much knowledge to elevate people through written words, Amen!!

  • Chiwetelu Stella

    Thanks for this very inspirational message. I’m richly motivated. When we do our best and consult God as well, we are bound to break all limitations. Thanks

  • Chikodi Obu

    Sage! These 15 crisp and didactic sentences are making me feel so educated and renewed. Sometimes all we need in life is motivation and to be shown or given a reason to take a step further in every endeavor. Furthermore, it gives a succinct approach to a proper understanding of life and how to approach circumstances.

  • Otti Augusta

    These quotes are uplifting!

    “Nothing external will improve your life except you positively change yourself within”
    This quote struck.
    Thanks for sharing them.

  • Henry

    Every quote mentioned are enough wisdom for life indeed. But for emphasis, that which talks about discovering what one was made for explains the thought that when the purpose of something is not known, abuse is inevitable. But when its discovered, there is focus and the best comes to bare.

  • Salome

    Wow to be honest what struck me the most is that God is the source of wisdom most of us tend to forget that and assume it all came from us I’ve been really blessed by this post thank you very much Ma?

    • Henry

      These quotes are really wisdom in entirety. However no #10 explains why it’s said that when the purpose of something is not understood,abuse is inevitable but with discovery of the reason for been made, the best there is comes to bare which the world needs. Thank you always Dr Edith.

  • Amaugo Stephanie Chidinma

    Insightful quotes! Thank you Ma, I like the quote that talks about our agenda being set by God and not by the media or the world. It is related to the agenda theory of communication. Lol! Asides that quote, I see other quotes as inspiring and encouraging quotes. I would conclude by saying that we should fear God for if you do not have the fear of God and you boast to be wise, your wisdom should be question. The bible says the fear of Lord ids the beginning of wisdom.

  • Uchenwa favour

    These quotes are really worth it. No.3 is one of my favourite quotes, it reminds me of the popular saying. “Weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning”. Whatever negative situation we face requires us to be hopeful of what the future has for us. Thankyou Ma, for these life equipping quotes. You are blessed.

  • Nwanze Josephine Chidera

    Coming to this blog this evening has made my day. These inspirational and life-changing quotes have really helped my heart this evening, especially “Burdening human beings with your needs can strain them. Let God decide how to meet them for you” and “Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any moment.” I am going through these now and my fear is that my guardians should not think I am burdening them with my needs. So, I think the best option is to allow God carry me at this moment. Thank you so much ma and may God bless you as you have blessed my life this evening.

  • Uzor Victoria

    Your motivational quotes really help in uplifting people. This quote in particular got to me and has really helped me in moving forward: Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any moment.

  • Amaobi Precious

    Thank you Ma! A visit to your blog is always like a breath of fresh air from the complexities of this world. And my best take-home quote is the first quote – “Let God, rather than the world or the media, set your life’s agenda.” It summarizes it all. I’ve come to the conclusion that fulfilment and meaning in this life can only be found in God. It only makes sense that God set my life’s agenda, because, that is what makes life worth it.

  • Amarachi Duru

    “Never leave yourself at the mercy of others. Get some control over your life”.

    Interesting!! I feel like this is directed towards me.

    Thank you so much ma for this..

  • Kooyon Abigail A

    All are inspiring most especially when you read the posts they are gleaned from.
    My major quote is learned from experience. You mustn’t necessarily be victimized before you learn…Learn from both the experience of other people. Living to make all the mistakes and get corrections might be just too dangerous.
    I learned!

  • Ndiwe Vivian

    These quotes are really life guarding and worth reading, especially quote 7 “What is not yours is not yours no matter how much you play with it”.

    Acknowledging that something isn’t yours and the will power to let go doesn’t come easy, but worth your value and peace of mind.

  • agbo jude

    This is really nice quotes, and number seven interest me more which said that what is not yours is not yours no matter how you play with it, that is one of the type of determinism in philosophy called fatalism, what is yours must be yours no matter the devil’s plan but what that which will not be yours will never be yours, thank you ma for this fruit of wisdom

  • CORNELIUS ODINAKA

    (7) “What is not yours is not yours no matter how much you play with it”, (14) “Envying others is unwise because the yardsticks for judging success vary according to what God has called each person to do”,(15) “Serving the devil is a poor choice because you will lose more than you will ever gain”. Ma I was blessed with these words and somebody needs make it a reflecting point. If the world had understand it this way that what is not yours is not yours no matter what, I believe that all these dying for a material things will reduce to minimum level. But that does not mean that you will not do what you supposed to do, is just for someone to do his best but if otherwise don’t go to the extreme because the negative there surpasses the positive . Thank you ma for making my night.

  • Isaac sopuruchi peace

    No 7 really drew my attention.. Its not easy to believe somethings are not really yours. Its hurt so much no matter how i sound it to myself. Thats ma for the quote , serves as a daily reminder

  • Amarachi Duru

    Every quote here carries a very deep meaning. But the most striking to me is #10. Indeed the reason for so many frustration in life is the struggle to be like the next person. This is because many people are yet to discovered whom they are and therefore focus all their strengths trying to be like another person.

  • Lawrence Cletus

    For a good laugh,was told the story of how the animals in the animal kingdom were asked one after the other how many times something bad had to happen to them before they learnt their lessons. Trust tortoise,when it got to his, turn he simply said he the experiences of all other animals were enough for him to learn his lessons.
    Realistically though,we can sometimes get caught up that these nuggets become overshadowed by the seemingly precarious situation we may be dealing with.

  • Obi Chisom Vanessa

    I love how each quote is simple and just relatable, as I read some I could actually understand the plot of each one especially the 11th one of don’t be consumed by the rat-race, take time to smell the roses, we tend to rush life and success without trying to appreciate the little lovely things we have, thanks for these quotes, Good one!

  • Eze Nathaniel Izunna

    This is a very wonderful quote that came at the right time because in todays world people are always misguided, but the one that caught my heart is the first quote.without God in the life of every man such a life would not be worth while. When God sets the agenda of a man’s life, he or she would live a fulfilled life.

  • Awaka vivian

    Lovely quotes ma, I found out each quote relates to all aspect of life, our relationship, sex life, finances and daily living. And I really liked the one of no matter how you play with something it won’t be yours if it was never yours.

  • okemiri ifunanya diana

    Some people are always comparing themselves with others forgetting that all fingers are not equal. no matter were you see yourself always be satisfied. Do not envy people’s success because it will slow down yours.

  • Ezekiel Stanley

    Splendid! Most especially the fifth quote which says sex is not a guarantor for longetivity or commitment in a relationship.
    Many a victims heartbreaks because their boy friends dumped them for another… Let me say this though it’s a bitter pill to swallow, the moment you succumb to the pressure of a guy to have sex psychologically it registers something to the guy, you a cheap.

    Put differently, who said you cannot marry as a virgin? Let me be very blunt hereba bit, Virginity may not be the real reason why the guys go away, yes! It is either they devalue you or they see you as a momentary sex doll… Ladies wake up.. be bless

  • Ezekiel Stanley

    Splendid! Most especially the fifth quote which says sex is not a guarantor for longetivity or commitment in a relationship.
    Many are victims of serious heartbreaks because their boy friends dumped them for another… Let me say this though it’s a bitter pill to swallow, the moment you succumb to the pressure of a guy to have sex psychologically it registers something to the guy, you a cheap.

    Put differently, who said you cannot marry as a virgin? Let me be very blunt here a bit, Virginity may not be the real reason why the guys go away, yes! It is either they devalue you or they see you as a momentary sex doll… Ladies wake up.. be bless

  • Nweke Ujunwa Linda

    The quotes are really motivational and educating. They are what we experience in our everyday life. I love the one of experience being our best teacher but must not be our own experience meaning we shouldn’t let something to happen to us before we learn a lesson but we can learn that lesson from what has happened to someone else.They are really inspirational and they help us to have the right view and to understand what life is all about so as to always walk on the right path. Thanks a lot ma for this soul lifting inspirations.

  • Onah Chiamaka

    Nice one again ma. Every quote here is as striking as the other. Particularly I love no 11 which is “Don’t be consumed by the rat-race. Find time to smell the roses while you can.” Most times we get too cut up with work and life that we forget to check out the smaller and beautiful things in life like flowers, good weather and a nice environment.

  • Joseph joy

    You are blessed ma’
    If only we apply all of this in our today’s life
    I don’t think the youths will be living in depression and confusion

  • Duruji Veralin Ogochukwu

    God bless you Ma for this wonderful piece…. I felt number 5,6 and 10 are for me because I feel that sex, good food or money can’t keep a relationship not sanctioned by God. He is the only one that has the final say on the duration or a relationship or Marriage not minding how holy or evil the partners are. Coming to the part of keeping family’s issues secret, everyone family member owes it to the family to be loyal and not divulge their secrets because if the issues later get settled the family members can still go back the way they were but for an outsider the tainted image remains.
    Finally, I support the position that with utmost focus and determination our true potentials will be realized.

  • Edeh Chinaza Jennifer

    Reading these inspirational quotes from the beginning to the last isn’t a waste of time to me at all.

    I was hardly strucked when I read the sixth quote… Thus: Keep your family and relationship conflicts within…
    Mummy… this is one of my weak point especially when it comes to relationships, I used to feel that saying or narrating my problem to friends especially those I feel I trust would aid bring help and quick recovery as they tend to bring helping suggestions most times.

    I pray God to help me to start keeping my relationship issues to myself looking onto His grace and guidiace.
    Thank u Mummy… May God keep u strengthened and ever young. Amen!

  • Obiemeka favour chukwugozie

    The quote are not just insipirational but also the truth what you don’t have is not yours no matter how long you play with it or it stays with you. God is the best standard any one can set.

  • Ezeh Chimezie Amos

    Wonderful quotes…… But I will most likely never forget that number 7 that says
    “what is not yours is not yours no matter how long you play with it” for reasons better known to me.

  • Jibulu Ngozi

    Lovely quotes,I’m in love with one and six,number one applies to everyone and I’ve seen the truth behind this quote, putting God first ensures a lot of things, happiness is sure,peace of mind, when one has God as his or her pillar,one succeeds well in life.
    Quote six,I’ve been a victim of not keeping family issues to oneself,it has caused a whole lot of harm than good in my every day life.
    Thank you ma for this quotes, they are really inspiring and I pray that God gives me the strength to live by them.

  • Ogbonna blessing ogechi

    Thanks very much ma for this wonderful Post, this a a very inspiring post, I learnt that situations that we currently face are just obstacles to a better situation because the situation may be a way to a Better future.

  • Happiness ChiZy

    Inspiring quotes! I totally agree with number 9…. When I encounter financial problems instead of bugging and hunting for helpers I go straight to God and hope he sends a helper…
    Sometimes when one hunts desperately for helper he/she tends to fall into wrong hands..
    So going on your knees is always the safest and surest thing to do because human fails but God never FAILS…

  • Ugwu Ogochukwu A

    What is not yours is not yours no matter how much you play with it. This one got to me. It usually happens when choosing A life partner. When you think and have concluded that someone is yours already, and having gotten acquainted with the person so well, issues and problems from nowhere tends to arise destroying what you have spent years building. It hurts. But i always take it that we weren’t meant to be and that God has got better plans for me. With that, life goes on.

  • Chidera

    The truthfulness of the quote “Sex is not a guarantee of longevity or commitment in a relationship” cannot be overemphazied. Yes! I know sex is a deep and powerful form of intimacy. It bonds and connects two people in ways that few other things can. It’s beyond the mind. It’s beyond the body, too. There is a deep energetic connection that bonds two people when they make love, but it doesn’t guarantee a long lasting relationship especially when that relationship is based solely on sex.

  • Amah Damian Uchechukwu

    “Experience is said to be the best teacher but shouldn’t be my own” I like this quote, it is true that experience is the best teacher but when it comes to bad omen ,I don’t wait for experience to teach me because I may not survive it, I will rather make use of reasoning which is also associated with wisdom that comes from the Lord,nice post am expecting more!

  • Okibe Mercy

    Each time I read some of this quotes made by father’s, it opens my eyes to realities of life, it exposes my mind to issues of life which need to be handled carefully, more especially the issue of discipline, self worth, self value and how not to try to be like others.

    • Edith Ohaja

      Which fathers? Are you.new to this blog? These quotes were composed by me, praise God, and that is why the posts they came from are under each one. May God grant you enough presence of mind to pay attention in Jesus’ name.

  • Otinga ifunanya Ruth

    Honestly inspirational quotes are life, for me it gives me peace when am distressed and most times gives me reason to keep pushing at trying times.i am really grateful for this 15 wonderful ones posted to see at least I’ll sleep on the quote that says when you discover what you are made for…the eistein in you would manifest!… bless you ma’am cause with this I can keep pushing.

  • Ogbonna Blessing

    Thanks a lot. Wisdom need not always be verbose. In fact, some of the wisest, most memorable quotes by famous people are pretty darn short, yet they pack a lot of meaning in their punch.

  • Essien, Anietie Archibong

    People may see these as mere quotes but having these in mind can help a lot for instance
    6. Keep your family and relationship conflicts private to avoid creating irreconcilable breaches.
    Some people take their personal issues to social media, tell friends and even strangers
    People may get the wrong message or impressions and when spreading your story will tell it how they like, complicating and twisting little issues till it gets back your family members you had issues with and by this time, it’s out of your hands, you can’t control it anymore

  • Ekwuagana Fabian Ikechukwu

    “The strength you have might easily turn to weakness if not moderated”
    The second quote is my best, though it takes putting into practice all that has been written here to make life an easy go for one, but what attracted me to this second quote is that i’ve seen it happen many times, where people put their trust on the strength they have and then act like nothing else exists in the world apart from them, forgetting that it takes humility for God to raise you more.

    Thanks for the quotes momma, opening this blog this morning is the best thing i’ve done today

  • Ochei Anthony Arinze

    I concur with number 7 quote
    “What is not yours is not yours, no matter how much you play with it”

  • Put God at the center of your life let him guide you and everything will fall in pleasant places. I am a living testimony. Quote number 1 really is and should be our number one priority.

    • Maduabuchi christiana chinechetam

      Wow! These quotes are really motivating
      The Qoutes that touches my heart is that Negative situation you face may turn around at any moment.Ma,may God continue to bless you for me and may your heart desires be granted.

  • Ugwoke Jennifer

    This one really got me_serving the devil is a poor choice because you will loose more than you will ever gain. This is so true because devil will never give you anything for free you must definitely pay for it. I love other quotes too . Thank you so much Ma for feeding our spirits, may the Lord strengthen you.

  • Ikea Joy Chiamaka

    These are awesome quotes, Ma. I really enjoyed reading them. No.14 really hit me, like, be happy and content with what you have. There’s no need to be envious of someone else’s life. Just as God created each of us differently, so did he give us different destinies.

  • kokoro martins seunfunmi recluse

    7. What is not yours is not yours no matter how much you play with it… This happen to be my best of those quotes. A lot of people find it difficult to move on because of what they desire could be, but turns out otherwise. Sometimes, what we think could make us whole might be what will break us down completely, so God has a way of saving us from such tragedy, but we, forgetting that, sometimes we have to let go to grow, become too clingy… Well, at the end, what is not meant to be will never be.

  • Ukpai-uma Lucy

    I love this post because it drew its inspiration from a true fountain. I do have much to say but I think, I love number 10. “If you discover and focus on the purpose on which you are made for, the Einstein in you would manifest. Here, from what I understood knowing who Albert Einstein was, we shouldn’t follow the crowd. We worth, each of us., And can succeed on where we are specifically destined. Its just the matter of realising what we are good at. God bless.

  • Paschal Odigonma Victoria

    I had to copy and share some of the life lessons because i wouldn’t want to be selfish with something this vital. I’d love all my contacts to see this too. Thank you ma for there life lessons. I hope to apply it as I grow and face challenges in life. God bless you many.

  • Arene Ifeyinwa Ketochukwu

  • Akuma Victor

      All my posts are free to share, my dear. That is why there are share buttons at the end of all of them. God bless you!

  • Agwu Tochukwu Frank

    No.6 of these quotes reminds me of a neighbour who always share his family issues with people with hope of receiving solutions to them, but he ends up experience the worst.

    However, is very disastrous discussing all your family issues with people. Learn how to handle it internally.

    Wonderful quotes MA.
    Thanks

  • Ekwuru Chidimma Jill

    This is a pot of wisdom and my favorite is don’t ask people for help,it stresses them,ask God. I noticed in life, it is always so even when we human don’t intend to be stressed others nature pilots that-feeling in us. Als, the society has shown relationships are about sex but one can hardly fine any with out sex in this generation. Me Am currently single but thank You ma for this inspirational quote it should guide one toward make ethical decisions.

  • Desire Adiukwu

    Having read through, It occurred to me that this posts or stories are equal to the flow of rivers of living water. Believe me, it has satisfy my thirstiness and still thirsty for more. God bless you, Dr. Edith Ohaja!

  • Thank you ma…
    most people think that is is #sex that sustains their relationships, but then, it makes the relationship(love) wear out

  • Precious

    Proverbs 18:4 (KJV) The words of a man’s mouth are as deep waters, and the wellspring of wisdom as a flowing brook.
    Words have the power to make or mar. These words of wisdom will go a long way in the life of any individual who cares to put them into practice. More grace to you ma’am

  • Abaraonye Chidinma

    The quotes are indeed amazing. I love this one “Serving the devil is a poor choice because you will lose more than you will ever gain”. This is just the truth. We really need to apply wisdom in life especially the wisdom that comes from God.

    • Joseph Chizoba Kingsley

      This quotes here are very important in ones life. I so much cherish the No. 3 of the quotes which says “Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any moment.” Thanks ma as you always give hope to people who might have losing hope.

  • Ani Fabian chukwuebuka

    These are indeed wisdom quotes. In them one can be said to have found guides for life indeed. With proximity, I hold #8 as top for me, due to the crave for money by this generation of youths. God help shift our understanding. Thank you.

  • Ani Fabian

    These are indeed wisdom quotes. In them one can be said to have found guides for life indeed. With proximity, I hold #8 as top for me, due to the crave for money by this generation of youths. God help shift our understanding. Thank you.

  • Thank you ma for these inspirational quotes. When I see such quotes, it makes me emotional and it helps me think deeply about my life. Some of them really got to me like the one that says “Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any moment”.

  • Ezema onyekachukwu Gideon

    The quotes are educational and inspirational.Number 3 which talks about the temporality of all things and situation captured my fancy. It’s in line with the saying that hence there’s life there’s hope. Giving up is never an option. God bless you ma for the wonderful life uplifting quotes

  • Egbuonu Vivien Ambrose

    OH MY GOD! This is so inspirational , From the first quote ,Let God, rather than the world or the media, set your life’s agenda. That particular quote to me is what one needs in his or her life. God is the in and out of any problem if he lets you into any problem it is for a reason and so if you are not in any problem or manage to escape one it happened for a reason also .Most people do not see it so and that why they feel they have problems in their life . the moment you let God and believe that he has control over your life you are safe. May God Bless you!

  • Nweze Mary Chioma

    Wow Ma.. Quote no.14 really caught my attention. It brings to mind a story shared with me by a friend. She called it “The Rose and The Tomato story”.
    It’s very funny how we can stand afar admiring certain people and desiring their attributes; what makes them who they are and so we neglect our very own unique abilities thus placing ourselves in the dungeons of low self esteem and inferiority complex.
    I often stumble on this and wonder when I or we, would ever learn.
    “Indeed envying others is unwise”. It’s God who has the right judgement over what he has called each one of us to do.

    • Agnes

      I have been really blessed by all the wonderful inspirational quotes especially the
      one that says we shouldn’t rely on man for our needs but God. May God continue to fill your cistern of knowledge. Amen!

  • Abugu Faith Chinecherem

    Thank you Ma for this wonderful post. Especially, money should be our servant that runs errands for us, not our master that dictates or controls our actions.

  • Adonu Ifeanyichukwu B

    Thanks for this life changing quotes ma’am.
    All of the quotes are really inspiring but the one that touched me most is: Be excited about life because the wonders you’re yet to experience could exceed the wonders that you’ve seen. We all have our time to shine in life and also to experience God’s abundant blessings. We just need to be patient and trust God to bless us in his time without feeling left out when he blesses our friends and neighbors.

  • Aleke Juliet C.

    “Sex is not a guarantee of longevity or commitment in a relationship.” You are 100% right about this quote ma. But… I wonder why after giving similar sermon to my friend, she ends up saying that I won’t understand.

  • Bob Charles Ngene

    Thank you so much for these refreshing quotes..they are officially my life nuggets from this day until my last day

  • UGWUOKE BLESSING NNEDINSO

    The 12th number which said, “Be excited about life because the wonders you’re yet to experience could exceed the wonders that you’ve not seen”, struck me most. This is a great food for thought for those who feel that life has nothing to offer again especially people who are depressed psychologically. I totally agree with you Ma. If the future is not bright, there wouldn’t be all those promises in the Bible. Nice one there Ma!

  • Anorue John-Daniel Kelechi

    There is nothing as dangerous as washing ones dirty linens in the public, this act tends to throw you out and make you a subject of public ridicule and also leaves you at the mercy of others. Number 6 and 13 interests me so much.

  • quotes are words from people, and these words serve as a guidance for other people. these are very beautiful wisdom quotes you have got right here ma and i have seen about three that has touched me so deeply, i believe these quotes will change my life for good. Oh i am so happy.

  • Arthur Ukaga

    I want people to actually focus on the quote that says “don’t be consumed by the rat-race. Find time to smell the roses while you can.” it tells a lot about the society we find ourselves in today. Everyone is so centered on making money that they forget to actually enjoy the beauty of life. Some even lose their humanity and care over it. I wish more people could see this and try to show more love for life than for money

  • Ozukwe mirian chisom

    I personally love inspirational talks, poem, books or show. It encourages and guide me every step of the way. They are food for the soul.
    I don’t understand why people find it difficult to believe that sex is not everything. Am making reference to number 5 and I quote, “Sex is not a guarantee of longevity or commitment in a relationship.” Sex is not what makes a relationship last long though its part but not entirely what keeps a relationship.
    I believe all this quote listed above will guide my steps all the way. Thank you ma and God bless you.

  • Godson chimaobi ogenyi

    Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any moment. This quote Got me inspired, we normally relent and lose hope because of the bad things which have happened to us no been mindful of the good things that will come to us in future to come, let’s keep a positive attitude and thoughts in our living and pray that good things fall in our place….. Amen, thanks ma’am

  • Aniebo Beauty

    Very inspirational. Thank you for such quotes, experience they say is the best teacher but doesn’t have to yours. Learning from others is a very important key in life’s success. Thank you ma

  • Nwosu Victoria

    quote 4 ministered to me the most. it says you can escape the agony of choice by determining to do only the right thing. in the sense that you can save your self the stress of being stuck in between making decisions of what to do, by just deciding to do the right thing in every situation. this can be applied to all aspects of one’s life. for instance, considering whether or not to attend a class or remain in bed all day. instead of going through that stress of choosing whether to stay or go, you could just do the right thing which is to go. i am blessed by this post ma.

  • Izuogu, Ozioma Precious

    Sex is not love, am pleading the Lord to give us more Wisdom, knowledge and understanding. Because we youths have missed alot because of sex. Especially because of money.

  • All the quotes here are highly wisdom oriented and soul-lifting. Initially I quite enjoyed all, but the one that really touched my soul is the quote (10), when you discover and focus on what you were made for, the Einstein in you will manifest, therefore I think it is extremely wonderful if one from time discover what he or she is made of, and work teeth and nail to bring into reality.

  • Wise quotes from a wise head. My favourite is number 11.Take time to smell the roses. Enjoy every moment while you can and make every moment count.

  • okoye paschalmary

    These are very inspiring quotes ma. They portray in themselves each a spectacle to success. When properly put into, we see ourselves culminating in the right direction. The quote firstly teaches us to always put God first and HE shall direct us. Focus and persistence for me is the mother of discovery and invention. This one stroke me and it is to never leave ourselves at the mercy of any one, they will surely one day mock us for it, directly or indirectly. Another one that touched me is serving the Devil, you’ll surely loose more than you gain. This is an indubitable fact which is very evident in our society today where people go for blood money and sacrificing their most beloved, and possibly at last they follow to the land of the Dead. I now ask myself, what is the gain,who will benefit from the money ,instead of struggling and praying to God, for His divine intervention. Anything gotten by serving the Devil does not last, no matter how well painted and pleasant to the eye it is. Thanks ma for that wonderful, enticing and intriguing compendium of knowledge.

  • Onuoha Divine

    Beautiful!
    The 14th quote got me!
    It is really unwise to envy others. Everyone was not called to do the same thing, and so will not even run or progress at same pace. There are no ‘mates’ in life. So you’ll be unfair to yourself to measure your level of success with other people’s results. you should be your only actual competition. Stay diligent at what you’re doing and you’ll be fine eventually.

  • Ijoma Chisom Jessica

    Wisdom according to the Bible is the principle thing and also it is profitable to direct… Thanks Ma, for this enriching quotes of wisdom, my best of them all is number 14; Envying others is unwise because the yardsticks for judging success vary according to what God has called each person to do.

  • Okonkwo Goodness Chiamaka

    Wise quote from a wise one. Inspirational and amazing quote. Number 14 really touched me we shouldn’t be envious of anybody. I believe everything happens for a reason. We all have different destinies so we won’t all be in the same pace at a particular time. There’s time for each and everyone.

    • Mbata Jemita

      nothing external will improve your life except you positively change yourself within. It has to do with one self if your are a negative minded person and you think things doesn’t work out the way you plan them to be it is because you already have this mind set of negativity in you. However it left for you to change yourself from within, change your mind set about life and I pray God will give us the wisdom that he alone can offer. Nice post ma.

  • ugwu Ozioma joy

    Very motivational and inspirational…especially these ones that said:we shouldn’t be at the mercy of anyone
    And 14_we shouldn’t be envious if anyone,for every happening there’s a reason…thank you ma,this made my day

  • Very motivational quotes that when applied to real life situations can yield lots of result. I learnt that money is not my master that dictates my life, it is my servant and I can send it on errand anytime I like. It doesn’t have control over me but the other way round. Thank you ma for these quotes

  • Euniprecious

    i found those quotes so helpful especially the 13th quote’never leave your self at the mercy of others because it you may never get the comfort you ever wish. I learnt never to find happiness in others because it will make you feel alone instead search it within your self you will feel happier and fullfilled even if you are left alone because lonely hours are the best time of life. Find your passion outside friends.

  • Favour Nnaemeka

    I can personally relate to numbers 4. As regards doing the right thing; it is not easy because sometimes, the right thing can feel like the wrong thing and vice versa. We should just pray for God’s guidance and good discernment to figure it out when the need arises.

  • Oluchi Whitney Chinelobi

    Very inspiring Quote’s,keep changing life Aunty,our happiness is in us,we can never find it in others, exactly the reason why we must keep on being Happy

  • Abonyi Chisom E

    Quite inspirational! Quotes number 5 & 8 got me captivated. The number 5 quote reminds me of an old Igbo adage that says: when an abomination lingers on in a community for a long time, it becomes a tradition. The rate at which this latter-day generation talk about or even indulge in immoral sexual practices is something of concern. The number 8 quote on the other hand is talking about money… Material possessions. Treat money not as a master. In our society today, people are willing to go anything just to make money. Some go as far as rejecting their Christian faith just to make money. I believe these quotes will go a long in teaching the younger generation and guiding them on the right path to follow so as to be successful in a righteous way…

  • Ebenezer

    Every bit of those quotes are so inspirational, the number 14 which was talking about envy I thought it was health to do, so that you can set a pace for yourself when you see others are ahead of you thanks for the quotes it bless my soul

  • njoga izuchukwu

    I’m so blessed reading this post. The quotes are so powerful and inspiring. No 2 caught my attention “Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any time.” Looking at our contemporary society, the main cause of frustration and depression is loss of hope. When one is faced with challenges, he/she thinks the whole world is against them, not really understanding that the darkness is temporary and meant to shape us.What an interesting, educative and informative post. Honestly am really inspired. May God almighty give us all His grace to always apply this RICH and HEALTHY post in our daily lives. Wonderful post ma May God help us to face our challenges with courage and so much wisdom.

  • Ojimadu kingsley

    This is yet another inspirational post. With good points concerning life’s challenges. Envy, love for money and always putting your hopes on we human being instead of the one true God, with him all things are possible. We humans should try our possible best to work according to his words and not of the Prince of the earth(devil)

  • Olawole Ebenezer

    “You can escape the agony of choice by determining to do only the right.” I dont understand.

    • Edith Ohaja

      When you leave your life open to anything, you have no boundaries, you don’t respect the Scriptures, when temptation comes, you will be open to so many suggestions. But if you have committed yourself to live by the word of God, it makes your life easier. Take for example, a handsome boy like you. Many girls may be indicating interest in having an untoward relationship with you. If you’re in the first group above, you will be thinking, “Should I give in to Angela? She is so fair!”, or “How about Vesta? She is so shapely!” etc. But if you’re in the second group, you will not be considering any of them because that kind of relationship is wrong. The agony of choosing between numerous alluring but wrong alternatives does not arise when you’re committed to doing only the right thing. Hope you get it now. Cheers!

We just have to make sure that obstacles don’t stop us. Thank you for the reminder Ma.

  • Oshana Oyaku Endurance

    No.7 caught my attention more, many are busy killing themselves over what cannot be their own, instead of accepting reality and moving on. Really like the 7 said, what’s not yours can never be yours.

  • Eze chinyere

    The quotes are indeed amazing. I especially relate with quotes no 4 and 8 which calls us to chose to always do right, and to gain control over how we spend money. We hope that God’s wisdom and word will guide our actions.

  • Ogbobi Blessing Ojonoma

    Indeed God’s word should form the basis of your life rather than the media or the world who leaves you shattered and makes you feel less of yourself. Sex unlike other things fades. It can never make a relationship last longer without the “G” factor. God’s word in you makes you conquer and live above offences. Thanks so much ma!

  • Ugwuanyi Collette Mmesoma

Thanks ma’m for this life changing quotes. May they inspire our lives daily

  • Jane anthe

    These quotes are indeed soul edifying. The quote on sex and relationship really needs to be taken seriously. The entire concept of intimacy/relationships and all have been thwarted.

  • Favour obi

    Honestly, my heart was enlightened by this quotes. Especially, the part that says, ‘ experience they say is the best teacher, but it must not be your own experience’.(paraphrased).

  • Eunice

    This is amazing, these quotes are inspiring, it’s mind blowing. This one struck me
    “when you discover and focus on what you were made for, the Einstein in you will manifest “.God bless you ma

  • Ojukwu Mmesoma Favour

    Wow, such inspirational quotes. Each quote has its special truth and is quite encouraging, I must say. But no. 10… “When you discover and focus on what you were made for, the Einstein in you will manifest” hit me so hard.

  • Wow. So much love the post. Especially in line nun, “Burdening human beings with your needs can strain them. Let God decide how to meet them for you”. It reminds me of how I use to disturb my mum to send me money especially during some occasions like my birthday. She used to tell me I have heard you, I will send something for your birthday. But I kept on reminding her. She will neglect the disturbance. On a good day when I have exhausted enough strength reminding her. I will just get alert. I will always be happy and Thank God.

  • Awesome quotes, as intresting and educative as always. The no 8 should be louded to the hearing of people of this generation, even the bible, although says that ”money answerth all” still state that ”the love of money is the root of all evil”, we should be careful in our dealing and quest for money and things of the world.
    Thank you ma, every point is really inspirational

  • “The strengths you have can easily turn to weaknesses if not moderated”
    This quote got to me. Truly most times our strength turns to our weaknesses.

  • Agbodike Ogochukwu Maryclaret

    Quite inspiring and motivational. Truth be told, this just taught me how to tackle life issues and challenges, especially,on not letting these trials weigh me down.

  • These are true words of wisdom. The first quote really is the center of all others; when you let God set your agenda everything works for your good, when we allign ourselves to God’s will, we can’t go wrong.

  • Obi-eze Adaobi

    We should learn to hold on tight to what belongs to us and let go what is not ours.

  • Nnorom Wisdom Hillary

    what an inspirational and motivational quotes. each of the quote carries a message. I would want to emphasize more on the fifth quote which says sex is not a guarantor for longevity or commitment in a relationship. its actually true, sex can never determine commitment and whether a relationship will last

  • Daniel Chukwuemeka Madu

    Inspiring. No 9 and 13 are what I always strive to avoid. Being at the mercy of humans and laying your burden on them can seriously strain the relationship you have with them in the long run. It is either they start avoiding you or they loose their respect for you. An eye opener. May God continue to bless you ma

    Very wonderful quotes ma. The 14th one called my attention. Everyone has their own time according to God’s plan but ma, it get so frustrating when you see those you started with run far ahead of you. I pray God helps me run with His plan for my life

  • Okorie Adaora N.

    These quotes are very motivational,educative and inspirational.My best is no.3 “Never lose hope because the negative situation you face may turn around at any moment”.This is absolutely true because when there is life, there is hope and God almighty sees everything going on and can at any moment turn your life around for good. God bless you ma and keep increasing you in wisdom and knowledge.Amen.

  • Ezeh John Onyekachi

    God is the custodian of wisdom. We gain it when we get closer to him. I love number 3/4.3 tells us not to lose hope,that terrible situations can turn around. 4 talks about the power of choice in escaping evil. It all depends on us to choose what to go for.

  • Obi-eze Adaobi

    I am thankful for no. 3 which says “do not loose hope cause the negative situation we face may turn around any moment “. In this sense, no condition or situation is permanent, it only lasts for a while, we should always be hopeful at all times and pray for better days ahead.

  • Ibekwe Vincent chukwuebuka

    These quotes are inspiring. This one really struck me, ” what is not yours is not yours no matter how much you play with it” it’s important to ask God for directions to know what is ours and not play with what is not our own. God bless you ma

  • Nnamani chizoba

    These quotes are very nice and helpful the one that I will be holding onto is #9 burdening people with our problems is not helpful we should present them to God who knows how best to handle it.

  • These are nice quotes Ma, am impressed by the first quote which states that”let God, rather than the world or the media set your life agenda because it is high time we should stop living to impress people or the media, rather we should live to please God.

  • OKEKE CHINONYE

    Agenda setting is something we have all left the media to do for us. The media tells us what to eat, wear, talk about, how to relate with one another, and many other stuffs but then it is not supposed to get to that extent. In the real sense, we find out that it has been taken the place of Good in our lives but this post calls for readjustment and reconciliation. Wisdom is far precious than rubbies.
    Another part which also affected me is that negative situations could turn around someday. This one is applicable in our everyday lives. It is expedient to know that bad situations or weeping may endure for a night but joy cometh in the morning. We forget these words sometimes and tend to blame God but there’s an assurance that Good sees his word to bring it to pass
    His thoughts for us are of good and not of evil to bring us to an expected end.

  • UDOETTE GIDEON COSMAS

    All these quotes are greatly rooted and places in your stories that why I spend time in checking for thoughtful quotes in your story. You have been a firm pillar and preacher of the gospel through your blog.this quotes should encourage us to do something for our creator if we want his blessings that why of the quote admonishes to serve only the one true God as his gift are without suffering and price.another tell us to cut our coat and find something which we are suited to.as we would nor risk being square pwg s in round holes. Great combination ma.

  • Eze Blessing Ada

    Very wonderful and educating post ma, the quotes have a message it passes across. The one that caught my heart is number 14th quote, yes i agree that the yardstick for measuring success differs according to Gods plan for ones life but in the world where social meadia is kinda setting tha yardstick for success and when you arent up to date with what goes on on social media it seems like you are the worst amongst all coupled with peer pressure ma it really isnt easy not to feel jealous i just pray God gives us the strenght to not be distracted and divert from Gods plan for us.

  • Blessing lmoke

    These quotes are beyond inspiring, what intrigues me most is number 5, it reflects on sex not being the guarantee for longevity in relations. This reminds of a neighbor back home who felt she could trap a man with sex and child birth.The young man dismissed her saying they weren’t compartable. Thank you so much ma’am,this quote is a guide to young ladies in relationships who fell most issues can be settled using natural endowment instead of applying logic.

  • Ochekwu Caroline Ene

    Wow, what an amazing quotes, I love the first quote that talked about us letting God set the agenda of our life rather than allowing d world and the media, as a human being you can never go wrong with letting God take total control of ur life. Also the 13th post that talked about us taking control of our life than being at the mercy of men.

  • Levi Ifeanyi

    Am so in touch with number 8 “The best way to treat money is not as your master that dictates your actions and controls your life but as your servant that runs errands for you” I think knowing this will help change our mentality about money being the root of all evil.

  • Menkiti Vivian

    As a lady I have discovered lately that majority of men out there are sex hungers. This draws my attention to one of your quotes ma, the one that says “sex is not a guarantor for longetivity or commitment in a relationship”. That is very true… God bless you.

    Nice one, ma! Yours are certainly words of wisdom, knowledge and admonition and they were sourced from the right channel or experience and wealth of wisdom.. We, however, should seek the face of our Lord Jesus Christ to direct and guide our paths for we are nothing but pencils in the hands of the Creator.

    Very informative and interesting quote. Each quote has some relevant thing to teach for life longevity.

  • The 7th did it for me. I’ve always had a problem with people who have an entitlement mentality, and this particular quote just goes to show that it indeed can be a problem when people do not know these things. Thanks for sharing, ma.

  • Okolo Elizabeth Chisom

    Thank you ma for these words of inspiration. This is what we need in times like this….

  • Rejoice Chiwudom Onyewuchi

    This is very didactic. I feel this should be made available to even younger children to prevent the mistakes adults have made in life.
