Ever been at the wrong place at the wrong time?

I don’t know how to bring out what I am about to write about, but read through with me. David, a man after God’s own heart, that’s what we read about him in Acts 13:22, many people never think that David really deserved that description, well for whatever reasons that they have. Psalms 51 is one of those chapters that convince me that David really did deserve that title, but that’s not the point. There is something about being at the wrong place at the wrong time,that awakens me this day even as I share. 2 nd Samuel 11:1 And it came to pass after the year was expired at the time when kings go forth to battle that David sent Joab and his servants with him and all Israel; and they destroyed the children of Ammon and besieged Rabbah.  But David Tarried still at Jerusalem   It was because David was in the wrong place at the wrong time that he ended up seeing Bathsheba naked, the he lusted for her that he sent for her, that he committed adultery with B...

I found this statistics interesting but shocking at the same time. You may be wondering why am I sharing with you statistics on American women? I will tell you why. At this age and time, I am convinced now more than ever that Africa is following the footsteps of the Western culture. We are imitating almost everything that the west does. Obesity is becoming a matter of concern in Africa, anorexia and bulimia, these were unheard of in the African Culture but lo and behold! They are creeping into the African culture very fast. The African woman has always been considered a beauty ...
