(TLF) The Ultimate Law Is Love

A set of items given today to Annabel. She also needs frequent support as her days go. She's a Sickle Cell warrior and a hardworking lady. To God be all glory. #July TLF 💚

2 MAILS FROM JESUS Ruth went to her mailbox and there was only one letter. She picked it up and looked at it before opening, but then she looked at the envelope again. There was no stamp, no postmark, only her name and address. She read the letter: Dear Ruth: I'm going to be in your neighborhood Saturday afternoon and I'd like to stop by for a visit. Love Always, Jesus Her hands were shaking as she placed the letter on the table. "Why would the Lord want to visit me? I'm nobody special. I don't have anything to offer." With that thought, Ruth remembered her empty kitchen cabinets. "Oh my goodness, I really don't have anything to offer. I'll have to run down to the store and buy something for dinner." She reached for her purse and counted out its contents. Five dollars and forty cents. "Well, I can get some bread and cold cuts, at least."  She threw on her coat and hurried out the door.  A loaf of French bread, a half-pound of sliced...

Several Nigerians recently rescued from trafficking syndicates in Côte d’Ivoire have recounted how they were deceived with promises of lucrative employment, only to end up in captivity and forced into commercial sex work. The survivors, identified as Monica, 17; Juliet, 18; Rejoice, 25; Joy, 22; and Monica Tamah, 38, said traffickers exploited their desperation for better economic opportunities before transporting them to the neighbouring West African country. The victims were rescued in a joint operation involving the National Agency for the Prohibition of Trafficking in Persons, authorities in Côte d’Ivoire and the Global Anti-Human Trafficking Organisation. In a statement obtained by PUNCH Metro on Thursday, the founder of GAHTO, Prosper Michael, was quoted as saying that the operation followed months of exploitation and abuse suffered by the victims. Recounting her ordeal, 17-year-old Monica from Benue State, said she accepted what she believed was a bakery job in Abuja before she ...

So today we had our visit to the Sickle Cell Centre, where we've been going at least once a year for almost 10 years now. We met with stiff hostility and terrible behaviour from a staff who stood in the way of our outreach. In matters like this, we usually overlook such characters and focus on the beneficiary. But this obstacle stood in the way of one patient who would have benefitted from our love visit. TLF has no intention or time to rub in the mud or take up the issue officially which is a very little thing we can do at no expense, but like Paul in the Holy Bible, who in his letters to the Church, named those who resisted his work and stood in the way of the Gospel, we shall only report this woman's name to God Almighty and leave her to her fate. But we expressed our disappointment in her to her with gentleness and love, as is in our principle as a Foundation. TLF's policy is not to make people die in their sins or lose their jobs, what shall it profit us? But we know t...

Inspired by Uncle E and Mount Zion Films, TED Talks among others! Several years ago we had a film-show in Ekosodin and the feedback was good. So we look forward to many more of such TLF outdoor activities. We thank God for our new projector, our repaired screen, our mobility, our re-designed lighting system, our serviced fuel generator, our newly rewired speakers and our ever ready amplifier and DVD! We cannot forget all those who donated for us to get a brand new Projector in 2020. In our filmshows we communicate good for the good of society, you and I are part of. If we do good and good exists in the society we will all benefit from it. We abhor the porn industry and seek to regulate the music industry. We cannot ignore the infiltration of evil morals in our children's media and cartoons which we vehemently kick against. Overall we applaud those who use audio visuals and public display of films, documentaries and other screen shows to promote charity and social development to God...

In TLF we are big on education at all levels. Having experienced tertiary education in University of Benin, University of Ibadan, Afe Babalola University and University of Ilorin not to forget the Nigerian Law School, there is the urgent need to cater for the needs of the tertiary environment - staff and students. We also give special mention to those with businesses, religious centres, visitors and parents of those in tertiary institutions. Take for instance in our theme in September especially, focus is completely on issues of literacy and learning. The role of the tertiary institutions we have in Nigeria cannot be overestimated in terms of charity and social development. The tertiary institution is often seen as the finishing school of every individual who has the opportunity to attend.  We acknowledge those who did not attend tertiary institutions by choice or due to circumstances beyond their control, they also form a significant part of the tertiary institutions' community....
