    Our profession and career are a big part of our human existence. For the believer, even more so because God has made us kings over this realm and expects that while we are here, we are curating it to be like His kingdom above. The first and most important call is to be a witness of the gospel, and added to that, to utilise all that God has placed within us for the building of people and to the glory of God. We see in the story of the talents how the master returns and asks each servant to account for what they had been given before his departure. The same will apply to us when Jesus returns, we will stand before Him and give an account for all the investments He made in us; the gifts, skills, interests, etc, and it is my prayer that we will not be ashamed and also be called good and faithful servants. This episode gives us five points to consider in navigating the decision as to what you might want to build your career in.

This year, it happens to be #EmbraceEquity and so, you can rest assured that tomorrow we will be hearing and reading all about the bias and unfair treatment of the female gender in society. While I perfectly understand the standpoint it often comes from, I am careful that we don't always get carried away looking at the other person and not at ourselves, and so for us at Foch woman and in this episode, we're embracing equity by being more fair and impartial to ourselves by how we handle our daily struggles as women.

    Have you found yourself questioning yourself because of the people that seem to constantly come around you? This episode guides us to answer pertinent questions that might give us clarity as to why certain people are approaching us and why certain people are not approaching us. Also, it brings light for us to know that the people attracted to us may not be a function of what we have done or not done; sometimes, people kick balls and just wait to see which enters. Just like Pharoah tried to kill all young boys under two in search of Moses, and Herod tried to kill all young boys in search of Jesus. While we have some monopoly over who approaches us, we do not have a total monopoly, and we should take advantage of the times when we don't have the monopoly.

    In this episode, we talk about steps to take if you are in a relationship where the other party is averse to talking about marriage. Might be excusable the first year (even though the start of a relationship must have an agreed destination, even if something happens along the line), but becomes a point of concern if by the second, third+ years there is still no word or hint of walking into marriage. I do not believe that we were made to court for long or just 'see how things go', asides the tendency to become complacent over time, there is high tendencies that you might fall into temptation and that can be avoided if we just allow the Holy Spirit lead us per time; including when to enter a relationship and even when to marry. While it is up to a couple to decide when to marry, it is important that it is a mutual agreement at every point in time, rather than one person hanging and wondering when the other party might be ready.

Enough of us excusing indecency and lack of modesty, but choosing rather to now submit to the Holy Spirit even in the choice of clothing and dressing. We have a responsibility over our brothers and sisters in the faith and if we take that responsibility seriously, it will be reflected even in how we appear outside of our homes.
