SNEAKY VENDING IN HOSPITALS: A REAL THREAT TO PUBLIC HEALTH

Would you, or anyone, in their right mind and enjoying good health want to get sick at the hospital or clinic because of buying food or something from someone who sneaked them into the ward or medical facility grounds? Well, this is a subtle threat to public health that I have witnessed which even some or most workers at health facilities are letting to take root  or leaving unchecked. Vendors go as far as into the wards, carrying and conducting their business of selling airtime, foodstuffs, toiletries, sanitary ware and the like in buskets, backpacks and handbags.

MAINTENANCE-FREE WIFE!

Although it is entirely imaginary, I honestly got inspiration for this piece upon pondering hard on how simply a wife can live life without being undaunted, to her old age!

A THOUSAND WORDS, A COUPLE OF THOUGHTS!

The invasion or the seeker's shelter
The peculiar spot, the temporal fit
This attraction, who can imagine?

THE TENSION WE HAVE

There is tension that sometimes seems, to me, to be overwhelmingly real with respect to prayer and when we do not get what we ask for. By tension, I mean 'a state of mental or emotional strain or suspense.'  We wonder and we become uneasy. No wonder the apostle Paul more often than not started his letters with 'Grace and peace to you... '. We need peace and God knows we do! Upon giving a caution and recommending constant prayer, Paul the apostle in the seventh verse of his epistle to the Philippians categorically adds ‘And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus.’  As God's sons and daughters it is natural for us to always expect to receive what we ask for (Math 7:7-11; John 16:23-27). That’s what Jesus tells us in the two verses.  We sincerely believe and we ask what we need in faith (James 1:6). But our faith and will is subservient to and governed by God’s Sovereignty and Will.
