Sometimes the reasons to leave home are hinged on envy, comparison and jealousy!

Ponder on these pictures!

You have a roof, clothes, education, job and food and even security but you see the movies, social media accounts and posh pictures of others and you desire to move to another place and live like them.

Unfortunately, many have regretted such moving, some have realised that the grass is not always greener, while a good number have achieved all the lush life they desired but at the expense of integrity, family, friends, faith, decency and more.

Godly contentment is great gain.

TLF is not pushing for mediocrity or a sit-put agenda in the midst of a failed system, insecurity or want for better prospects.

Instead what we intend to achieve in the month of July where we deal with issues of #Trafficking (which has imbibed in it issues of sex trafficking, child trafficking, illegal migration, slavery, violence against women, rape and other threats to humanity),

Is to sensitise the public - those who know to stand against these things, and those who don't know to be weary of lies and deception by agents of these societal ills. 

We also intend to support agencies, NGOs, individuals and government bodies such as NAPTIP in their fight against trafficking. 

We intend to share our tracts to educate people on the dangers of trafficking.

We also have books and movies in place to enlighten people about the ills of trafficking.

We have various programmes online and on sight to achieve these and more by the grace of Almighty God.

We know that many girls are still travelling out of the country for greener pastures only to end up being used as slaves.

We know that many young men are still illegally crossing borders in Mexico, Morroco, Spain and Greece, among other nations and dying in the process.

We know that many situations and conditions in life push people to move, but many also are not in this category.

As the month advances, let us continue to deal with these issues.

#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...

August Theme

Our thematic issues for this month is #NextGeneration We urge us in love to pick one of the issues under our theme for the month and help share messages, videos, pictures and matters for discussion and action plans under any of the issues. Let's dig deep into the concept of preparing the next generation of leaders, professionals, members of the society among others, which comes from God Himself right from creation and see how it improves acts of charity and social development. Humanity has survived since creation because intentional efforts have been made to prepare for generations to generations. Families birth those who'd constitute the next generation. If we don't prepare the next generation, we'd have a retrogressive situation which is highly preventable. #NextGeneration #August TLF 💚
