What a pity!! He tried for you when he was alive though!! Chai!!! But he probably had cash in unknown bank accounts. A lot of unclaimed monies in all these Nigerian banks.
.

I feel like I've failed him, I wish I could apologize I swear.

He was 95 years and he used to pick me up from airport whenever I came for Christmas break. Every single time despite his age

And he entrusted my younger ones to me, he used to say "as I have done to you, do to them" because I'm the first born.

Just hoping Canada waka can work by Gods grace. I want to make amends on all the mistakes. It really breaks my heart.

Sometimes even to cry go dey tire me.

Nairalanders: years ago, indeed it was disheartening one refused turning from grace to grass, at a point grass speaks for itself....., back then in the village, where man dey hustle, dey sell buckery kerosene, climbs trees for it fruitful, bcs at times ,the money which they will pay is not funny,....One day,my biological bro returned from lag, after discussions,which was filled with promises,revealing how he have placed a graphs for me, he was speaking as if he is gods..he promises to open me patrol station instead of the buckery, he promise to ensure my education continues, the celebrations was much as he have achieved, so we left the following day, no documents was signed. I arrived lag, my bro called me (nche ) instead of uche ,do you have like 10k(2005),bring am later, na so later later, my business money which he was not the one that started it finish, school i no continues and it was junior period, i missed it.......patrol station he no open bcs i no see.....i was subjected to abides by certain rules which my coming is never mentioned....schools n patrol station dies....no one is talking about it.....he was busy opening acct for now born baby,expanding his business ,travels to china to import over 100,000 laptop bags.....everywhere was full of bag, including the room i was sleeping on. To cut the long stories short........i went to school and i met a teacher named Mrs Ajayi, explain my predicaments, then ask you if it really touch, and if she has sympathy for me,that he should sign as parent guardian and register me, i wan start school.......she did it, i enjoyed scholarships ss1-ss3.....i didn't write junior waec, Mrs.Ajayi signed for me after i passed the three subjects for the class entrances.......i have finished nysc since 2019,worked in firms, enjoyed the recent concluded npower 2020 batch c stream 1,self employed, paying exployees.. What God Almighty cannot do, does not exist,Praise God my people. . between 2006-2023 is an interesting part,challenging, good bad ugly happened, visit http://starletinformatics.data.blog/2022/10/30/grace-to-refused-grass/

Baba, don't mind that silly kid. How can a thief be depressed because another officially recognized thief stole from him.
The silly boy didn't think about the state of the person that was scammed initially- Some took loans to invest in their fake business scheme. Smh
I am so disgusted at the level most Nigerians see scamming as an every day business.
very irritating. He was bold saying he will cashout again. Only wen Nigeria goverment starts dealing with fraudsters as drug pushers will this madness stop. Imagine sentencing life or even to death. Most of this victims commits suicide

Have you ever gone from grace to grass then back to grace again?

Please come in and share your story for some of us to learn because it seems I am finding it hard to get back to my glory days.




Grace to Grass is always sure for most people...It's how they are able to rise from Grass back to Grace that matters.

Majority from Grass always fall by the wayside and never rise up again.

Motivation and radical hustling is the sure bet to rising up once more...Prayers without real hustle is absolutely a waste of time...God no go reason your matter at all.

Yes,

We were living fine until scammers scammed me because of my greed. Til now, we have not recovered. I am just living waiting for the day everything will come to an end. Everything I put my hands on fails and I am already hopeless.

Guy, I know how that feels at the moment.
The surest is to keep on hoping and motivating yourself to keep on pushing.

Good question. Personal Assistants to God will say “God knows best” or “ “He should wake up at 12pm to do midnight prayer and see God work wonders”. or “Every disappointment is a blessing” or “join NSPPD daily prayer”. Meanwhile some atheists are billionaires. Issorait!!!!




My whole life I have left this country thrice... birthed in france (story for another day)

Now when I saw things were about falling apart I decided to run to Germany... noted
: money wasn't the issue then but I was denied. . Tried SA was granted but I had to consult (by consult went to a prophet) he said why I was rejected for Germany was because I was living a wayward life. That I should put SA on hold and try Sweden(got no one in SA but I do have folks in Sweden)

Na so I enter better fasting.. shanked all the so called wayward life. Had to move down to the church sef make temptation no get the best of me lol

No embassy swedish embassy then you have to go submit your documents at ikoyi vfs. .


The day I was suppose to pick up my visa ... Bro I was denied again. . Nearly ran mad.. and thus time money done finish. .

Went to the prophet told him the outcome

He said
"Take heart my son God knows best for everything there is reason"


I just jejely waka comot after he was done with prayers head to the nearest bar got my soul filled

No I am not from ekiti but spent couple of years there when everything was rosy

I was referring to what the previous poster said about helping build a church same thing happened to me. There is this school too at adebayo stadium(not sure of the name) around oke sha . I and my friends help with the renovation of the school cos most times we had issues playing bbal at stadium so we had to renovate the school's own.

Back to that church thing. Why I replied him was why would one help God and then later it feels like when you need him he is nowhere to be found

I have always say this but people will call me an unbeliever...

There is God and He's competent...its just that God would never do what He wont do no matter what u try to do to cajole Him..

Life is like a script that God Himself has written and signed on it, and we will play out what is written in the script.

When things are rosy, we should know its in accordance with what is written on the script, and when it's the other way around, we should know that its according to the script.

When things are rosy don't let us think it's by our prayers, forget prayer bro, I don't believe in prayer.
Likewise when things are sour, don't let us blame ourselves for a bad decisions or lack of prayer..its still in accordance with the script.

If u re stingy more than the mother monkey, if Ur phase of wealth is reached in the script believe me u will get rich even when u don't care about people around u.

Likewise, if u like carry all Ur inheritance to a motherless homes, when it's Ur time to pass tru a rough patch, bro u will pass tru it and it will look like God does not love u despite u bn a good man.


GOD WILL ALWAYS DO WHAT HE SAYS HE WIL DO AND HE WILL NEVER DO WHAT HE WONT DO.


at the end of everytin I leave u with my watchword which goes thus..

qué sera sera...what will be will be.

If I start to talk I won 40 million with 40,000 Naira on sportybet , I felt invincible . I started carrying all the prostitutes I could think of, send money to all those begging me , bought a car and living the lavish life put 20 million Naira back to betting and I can categorically tell you that I lost it all . Now all the friends I gathered in the win days has left me and my rickety camry alone..

Bob, N40 Milla is not beans at all oh!
1. How many olosho do you need to baang in all these hotels...You would've married outrightly and fucckked the living daylight outta your wife from morning till night self...Marriage wouldn't have cost more than N1 Milla altogether.

2. You would've have bought like three cars...Take one as your personal car and lease two for UBER...More profits, I guess! (N8 Milla)

3. You would've bought a house or build one that wouldn't cost more than N8 Milla.

4. You would've have set up another good business with like N2 Milla.

5. You would've have put N3 Milla in a fixed deposit.

6. You would've japa to Canada with like N5 Milla .

Anyway, you see free money and decided to waste it and now become a recalcitrant to the society, family and friends.

You fucckked up big time because betting doesn't come big always.

If you had gotten the visa, you would have worshipped the pastor as a true man of God. That is how religion work. Out of 100 people you tell “All will be well” , 30 will experience turnaround not necessarily because of the prayer, the remaining 70 that experience failure you tell them God knows best. The successful 30 will give testimony and draw another 100 people to the church and the cycle continues. Religion is truly the opium of the masses. There is always an answer for every situation.

Affirmations, positive thinking, meditation, etc. Prayer in itself is hope that someone you can’t see got your back. Everything is having Hope mindset to keep you going when you feel like giving up. Some atheists are making it on this same earth without prayer. Hustle without prayer is even better than prayer without hustle.

Yes

Life has though me many things...
I have fallen many times, yet Iam here today rising up gradually again.

There was a time I was counting millions, changing car like changing clothes...

There was a time I kept #5 for days, #5 that could only buy a sachet of pure water then, cos I believe if I spend that #5 where would I get another one...

I was very suffer that no one could be of help. Yet I summoned courageous that things would be great someday...

Majority of those I have helped in the past were against and hid from me so that I won't be a burden to them.

I struggle to start a job that was very low to my standard, this was when all friend left me alone cos I didn't Worth thier standard again but remain with just only one who has nothing to offer cos he didn't have too, there are many times this only friend of mine would stole some cups of gari and rice from his wife and gave me, which won't last for 2 days.
Still I lost all my savings from this job to mmm...

I remember when I collected a higher purchase okada and this okada was snatched at the gun point the following week, this maked my life from Fran pan to fire...

But all glory be unto God cos one day my story change from a mother of someone i had assisted before.... This is what took me out of poverty.

I hope the first statement is true though from the total silence all around me i no dey sure. But you are right that anything wey wan happen go happen. Life is random. It’s just like a gamble. Some are born whole, some with all manner of genetic diseases. So many examples of the randomness of life.

I can’t call it grace to grass cos I’ve accepted reality. Lost my second car I bought in 2016 and everything. I replaced everything I lost in 2020 and fast forward to now,you will see me in a flashy car but I no chop(at least not yet). One thing I’ve learnt now is money which does not work,do not multiply. Even if given a million dollar it will still run down to zero, unless you put it to work.



This is one of the most intelligent contributions I have ever read here.

This has been my secret.

Money that is not put into work automatically depreciates faster than ever.

Keep it brother and keep telling them the truth.
