Month Review

This month we looked at sub-issues under the theme Sanity aka Balance aka Extra-Curricular Activities! We in TLF believe in Balance which ensures sanity. 

Balance entails everything needed to lead a wholesome life. We need to love our neighbours as ourselves and if we do not take care of our affairs we would either burnout or not be able to show love to others.  

As a charity and social development organisation, TLF strives to ensure that all concerned- trustees, members, volunteers, beneficiaries, benefactors and all are living in the peace of God. Everyone may not have the basics of life and living but we are tranquil in Christ Jesus. 

Happiness is free, so also is our being children of God. Although Apostle Paul wrote a number of his books in prison he did not let it affect his sanity. So what is our excuse? 

Extra-Curricular Activities abound in different forms and we encouraged to engage in any, as we can. 

The United Nations enjoins individuals to take seriously the issue of Sanity aka Balance aka Extra-Curricular Activities as it declared among other relevant dates, 27th of September as World Tourism Day, 6th of April as International Day of Sport for Development and Peace, 16th May as International Day of Living Together in Peace, 21st of September as International Day of Peace, yearly to sensitise the public on the theme.

When Jesus is in our Work and Extra-Curricular Activities we will surely enjoy Sanity and Balance. When people use their Extra-Curricular Activities to sin, scorn, perpetuate evil and brag, then you’ll know that they have missed it.

As Christians we know God is our Father, for our success in having balanced lives, we must fear God, give Him glory and allow Jesus into our minds and our entire being solely.

Jesus Christ came to show us the example of balance for Jesus as a Child grew and became strong in spirit, filled with wisdom; and the grace of God was upon Him, He increased in stature and in favour with God and men.

#NextGeneration Stories

Cherokee Legend Do you know the legend of the Cherokee Indian youth's rite of Passage? His father takes him into the forest, blindfolds him and leaves him alone.  He is required to sit on a stump the whole night and not remove the blindfold until the rays of the morning sun shine through it. He cannot cry out for help from anyone.  Once he survives the night, he is a MAN. He cannot tell the other boys of this experience, because each lad must come into manhood on his own. The boy is naturally terrified. He can hear all kinds of noises. Wild beasts must surely be all around him. Maybe even some humans might do him harm. The wind blew the grass and earth, and shook his stump, but he sat stoically, never removing the blindfold. It would be the only way he could become a man! Finally, after a horrific night the sun appeared and he removed his blindfold. It was then that he discovered his father sitting on the stump next to him.    He had been at watch the entire night, p...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
