No Messi No Barca!! Neymar Admits Barcelona Dependence On Messi

Image
  Barcelona forward Neymar has said he has no problem admitting that the club is openly dependent on star player Lionel Messi. Neymar, who is set to play a similar role for Brazil at the Rio 2016 Olympics, says there’s nothing wrong with a team having a star player to depend on. “I’ve never liked talking about myself, but I’ll give Barcelona’s example,” he told a news conference at Granja Comary. “We have great players but will we deny we are dependent on Messi? Of course we depend [on Messi]. I’m not ashamed of playing for him or for the fact that he is the man. Messi is the best in the world, I want to depend on him.” Neymar believes that the young Brazil team will be prepared for challenge of winning the Olympics on home soil. “Winning is a very good thing. The pressure is part of the football, I’m here for that. It’s part of the game this pressure when I’m on the field. “They [the other players] are young, but we know our responsibility of playing for Brazil

Oh No! The Number Of Teachers Who Die Every Month In Lagos Will Shock You

Image
A new revelation has been made about the number of teachers who die every month in Lagos and it will shock you. An average of 10 teachers die each month in the post-primary teaching service of the state accroding to the Lagos State Teachers’ Establishment and Pension Office (TEPO). Mrs Sewanu Ayodele-Amosu, the Permanent Secretary of TEPO, made the disclosure on Tuesday at a Sensitisation Seminar and Capacity Building on Healthy Living for Post-Primary Teaching Staff of the state. According to Vanguard, she said that apart from sudden collapse resulting in either temporary or permanent confinement in bed, the disturbing rate of deaths among teachers in the state called for concern. According to her, in spite of the prevailing economic situation in the country, there is, arguably, scantiness of knowledge on healthy living. “This is another contributory factor for this worrisome adverse health condition of the teachers. “This health seminar will be held quarterl

10 Reasons Jesus Came to Die

Image
This post is adapted from  10 Reasons Jesus Came to Die , a short-form tract based on the best-selling book,  Fifty Reasons Why Jesus Came to Die   by John Piper. 1. To destroy hostility between races. The suspicion, prejudice, and demeaning attitudes between Jews and non-Jews in  Bible  times were as serious as the racial, ethnic, and national hostilities today. Yet Jesus “has broken down . . . the dividing wall of hostility . . . making peace . . . through the cross”  (Ephesians 2:14 –16). God sent his Son into the world as the only means of saving sinners and reconciling races. 2. To give  marriage  its deepest meaning. God’s design was never for marriages to be miserable, yet many are. That’s what sin does . . . it makes us treat each other badly. Jesus died to change that. He knew that his suffering would make the deepest meaning of marriage plain. That’s why the Bible says, “Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her”  (Ephesians

20 Verses to Remind Us - We Do Not Have to Fear

I struggled with fear and worry for years. But through time, I began to find that the things that once would have sent me down an anxious spiral, no longer had the same effect.  It didn’t happen quickly, but over days, months, years. I read words - of life - of truth. Soaking them in, over and over, praying them out loud.  Until they became so familiar, they replaced the other things in my mind that I’d battled against. There’s nothing magical about words and verses, but there is power through them, because they’re God’s words.  1. Isaiah 41:10 “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.  I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” - Isaiah 41:10 2. Psalm 56:3 “When I am afraid, I put my trust in you.” - Psalm 56:3 3. Philippians 4:6-7 “ Do not be anxious about anything , but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And th
