Faith is not passive. It is very active. It is a response to God's word. God has promised to bless the work of my hands for instance, so everyday, I get to work, put in my best and trust God to bless my

Well...the sentiments would have been different if McSlob was a kind man albeit a pig farmer. For then the pig would have been vilified for making a snack of him, even though kind men have been known to

How do you do this? How do you get your inspiration? Your stories are always so enthralling, not a single word out of place, each one of them enhancing the story and sucking the reader in. Writers like

Let's just say @beastlybanter is a storyteller who deploys his craft with poems. It's amazing how you can make a poem off anything. Anything. This is a unique gift and a well honed skill.

Who doesn't love comebacks? Me! If I was the one winning. Lol. But yeah, comebacks are awesome and exhilarating. But for the fight between Pennington and Nunes, I think Pennington's corner made the wrong

Beautiful! Beautiful! Beautiful! I am not exactly a lover of animals ( not a hater either!) but was quite touched reading from the mouse's perspective: living in constantly at the edge of death as it were,

Quite an introduction you gave for the scorpion. Like welcoming it to the stage. Only it wouldn't be getting an ovation but boos and curses. My brother was stung years ago by this venomous arachnid. The

Poor Gryth. This is so so funny. First he pulled it out from where he felt they were stuck. Next he pokes it in as he thought she likes 'em to be. He had better sit far away as possible from that lady.

I wouldn't trust a Ninja to wash the dishes. He may use them as weapons instead! @beastlybanter, is there a thing or topic you can't write a poem about? This is good.

lol. Maybe, just maybe one compass too many went bad on this night Marvin took a few "harmless" snorts. How quick we sometimes are to blame everyone else but ourselves. Beautiful work @beastlybanter

Can things be this complicated in real life? Does this fiction mirror real events? I hope not. beautiful piece from one of my favourite Steemians.

So everybody lost: the blackmailer, the victim, the wife...but I reckon the couple lost the most. Blackmailers thrive on skeletons in the cupboard. When we have none, they have no business on us.

When the world started embracing relativism and doing away with absolutes, it was only a matter of time before truth is shown the way out. I'm afraid we are in those times. Truth is going extinct. Unless

Wow! I just found out I'm quite slow reading Igbo! I literally had to pick the words one by one. What English has done to us! You are welcome @Ogoowinner.

I will definitely not compromise on this! I started reading to my daughter while she was 2 months old. She is just over 4 months now. Though it is yet to be a regular and scheduled routine, as she grows
