MINDHUGS WELLNESS

by Matilda Kafui Praise One Saturday morning on my way to work, I decided to buy some waakye.   All l had on me that day was ¢10.00, l held it and a tissue l had in my hands so after buying the food and had to pay, I realized l had thrown the ¢10.00 away and held on to the tissue instead of it being the other way round. Honestly, l was so well dressed that day that, l wondered if the Waakye seller would believe me if l told her the money just got missing. I searched and searched all around yet to no avail, even   people around decided to help me search, still could not find the money, l stood there with my shades in my hands, still holding on to that tissue l mistook for my money as if it was going to turn into money, l could not bring myself to believe that l had in exchange threw away my money instead of the tissue. As I stood there in a sad and confused state thinking of what to do, a young man offered to pay for my food, and he went on to ask me if l had enoug...

by Asiwome Tei-Mati  "...When Jacob had cooked stew, Esau came in from the field and he was famished; and Esau said to Jacob, 'Please let me have a swallow of that red stuff there, for I am famished.' Therefore his name was called Edom. But Jacob said, 'First sell me your birthright.' Esau said, 'Behold, I am about to die; so of what use then is the birthright to me?' And Jacob said, 'First swear to me"; so he swore to him, and sold his birthright to Jacob. Then Jacob gave Esau bread and lentil stew; and he ate and drank, and rose and went on his way. Thus Esau despised his birthright." (Genesis 25:29-34). The above is the story of Ghanaians when Osagyefo Kwame Nkrumah admonished “…for our independence is meaningless unless it is linked up with the total liberation of the African continent. “…the long battle is over and our beloved country Ghana is free forever" Free Forever? I doubt! What is freedom if our individual identity is linke...

If the Pharisee were given the chance to pick disciples for Jesus, imagine what would have happened. Temple of Jerusalem Council or Pharisees and Sadducees Jerusalem Jesus Christ c/o Anywhere Judea, Dear Sir, PROPOSAL OF ADVICE It is in your own interest that we write you this letter. We have conducted a detailed human resource analysis of your choice of disciples and want to duly advice you. Upon research and interview we believe Simon Peter, John and James Zebedee, Mathew, Thomas and most of the rest of your choice are not fit to be disciples. Simon Peter has no formal education of any kind. He is too uncouth and has a terrible temper. Mathew is a dishonest tax collector and unsuitable for missionary work. The least said about Thomas the better. He is too argumentative and challenges authority. The rest have no social standing and most of them have no property of any value. They do not know the l...

by Anthony Afum Awuah The bible then clearly at this point shows us the way forward. Jesus points to the fact that an intention alone is not enough. The fact that a person intends to be there for you and love you is not enough. Once Paul said that which I will I am unable to do but that which I eschew I find myself doing them. God acknowledging that man needs a standard made it very clear in His word what qualifies to be love in His standard. God after he created Adam said it was not good for man to be alone. He didn’t create Eve before concluding it was not good for man to be alone. You have to create yourself before you give in to the need to accommodate another person in your life as a man. Love is responsibility and all that drama that comes with it is just a benefit. Educate yourself, find something meaningful to do and earn a livelihood. Build yourself in the Lord and make time to commit fully to the work of God before you introduce the concept of a better half in your...
