PREFACE
I would love to use this opportunity, to thank everyone, who has stood by me, from day one, up to this juncture; family, friends, and everyone else in their respective capacity.
I would like to appreciate, the different organizations, that have seen me reach this far, ranging from church organizations, and all the other forms of organizations.
My greatest thanks, go to our Heavenly FATHER, who knew me, even before I was born. HE has stood by me, all throughout the different life stages. I mostly thank HIM, for the salvation, that HE has granted me, and every other believer, through HIS son JESUS CHRIST.
I thank the HOLY SPIRIT, for inspiring me, to write this book.
Be blessed!

DRUNKENNESS

POOR TIME MANAGEMENT

A time for birth and a time for death; a time for planting and a time for uprooting; a time to put to death and a time to make well; a time for pulling down and a time for building up; a time for weeping and a time for laughing; a time for sorrow and a time for dancing; a time to take stones away and a time to get stones together; a time for kissing and a time to keep from kissing; a time for search and a time for loss; a time to keep and a time to give away; a time for undoing and a time for stitching; a time for keeping quiet and a time for talk; a time for love and a time for hate; a time for war and a time for peace.

What profit has the worker in the work which he does? I saw the work which God has put on the sons of man. He has made everything right in its time; but he has made their hearts without knowledge, so that man is unable to see the works of God, from the first to the last.

I am certain that there is nothing better for a man than to be glad, and to do good while life is in him. And for every man to take food and drink, and have joy in all his work, is a reward from God. I am certain that whatever God does will be forever. No addition may be made to it, nothing may be taken from it; and God has done it so that man may be in fear before him.

Whatever is has been before, and what is to be is now; because God makes search for the things which are past. And again, I saw under the sun, in the place of the judges, that evil was there; and in the place of righteousness, that evil was there. I said in my heart, God will be judge of the good and of the bad; because a time for every purpose and for every work has been fixed by him.

Ephesians 5:15-16 -Take care then how you are living, not as unwise, but as wise; making good use of the time, because the days are evil.

INDECENT DRESSING.

Everyone ought to review their lifestyle and drop the bad habits for positive results to manifest under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.

If we are living by the Spirit, by the Spirit let us be guided.
