Worrying has become a part of man's activities, we can't just help but get worried because things happen beyond our control and we feel we are losing track of our lives but do you know that life continues despite your worries and your worrying would not make anything better instead it adds to your problems. Excessive worrying leads to high Anxiety, it could lead to panic during waking hours.
Worries makes you starts having unrealistic fears, looking over your shoulder when no one is chasing you, suspecting and reading meaning to everything and every word said by friends and companions making everyone a potential threat.
In a country full of stresses, leaving home and not being certain if you are coming back, it's normal to want to worry but would you not rather live your life whether short or long happy than having to heap up sorrows that might kill you before terrorist ever think of coming to your area.
Chronic worrying can affect important part of your life do much that it interferes with your appetite, lifestyle habits, relationships, sleep and your job performance and this make them seek for temporary relief leading them to form bad habits like smoking, drinking excessive alcohol or using drugs.
So as you can see, the problem is not in worrying alone but what it could cause you to do. We know that smokers are liable to die young and those that still live longer do so with chronic diseases, vital organs in their body is affected and they begin to deteriorate.
It's a new day, get up and decide to be happy because a happy heart does good like medicine. You can not fix all the problem of life, do what you can and leave the rest for God. Live happily with your family and friends knowing that today is a gift that is why it is called present while we wait with hope for a better tomorrow. Start living life today, make someone smile, make impact and maintain your healthy life style.
This is where I will stop today, till I come your way next time I remain Radiant Pheobe.

The One that Broke The Chains to my Heart.
For the first time in my dismal life
I feel love flow in my heart
the same heart once thought cold and lifeless
fills with glorious joy and happiness
because of a woman
whose spirit is full of passion
her eyes that shine like sapphire stars
filled with warmth and beauty
a smile that brings happiness to my sad existence
I have never known love until now
because of the way she touched my heart
took hold of my depressed soul
and showed me the beauty of life's wonders
everything that I thought impossible
all seems to be within my grasp
I see everything in a new light
because of something I thought unworthy to feel
to feel love's tender kiss
and I bask in its beauty so
because of the feelings of a woman
whom I would love now and 'til
my heart beats its final note to life's great song.

I AM JUST DOING MY JOB!
On every lip and in every mouth, in every heart and in most homes, most I say because every does not work in all homes.
Yes! On every lip is the cry against corruption. Social media is bombarded per minute with news and proof of the very thing we hate but sometimes I wonder, is corruption a man that acts on its own, if it is a man, corruption must be really popular for it has become the talk of the town.
If it is an idea, it has permeated most hearts and the system.
We quote scriptures to point accusing fingers to the man on the screen and the man in the news papers, we shout with Velocity at the atrocities we see in the state houses but wait o, was it the president that used your hand to sign those fraudulent papers you were asked to sign? Did you not know it was wrong, did you not think that is an act of corruption? Of course not, you justify yourself and say "I WAS JUST DOING MY JOB! "
Oh really? The lie you told to cover up your mess, I bet it's your governor that forced it out of your mouth, of course a little lie will help save face, forgetting that a little lie is like the yeast that permeates deeply into the dough affecting every part of it, and oh, you may claim you were doing it for the sake of others. You were just doing your job right?
Hey beautiful lady that sleeps around with aristos, you say it's ushering job you are going for in Abuja and that man, the one with pot belle and more cash to spend than he has need for. Your agent asked you to make him comfortable, Shey comfort now means messing up yourself with somebody's husband and father huh? If the man has no sense, Biko on his be half receive sense in Jesus name and think about your future but again when asked you say "I WAS JUST DOING MY JOB! "
The funny things we do in the name of a job, making excuses and justifying our actions, corruption is not just in the state houses, it's in most hearts. We can't fight this corruption when we have signed partnership with it.
I am not talking to Nigerians as a whole, I am talking to you as a person, before you point that accusing finger next time, make sure you are walking in perfection. Face your life, build yourself for the change we seek outside starts from us. Selah!

Radiant Health Corner: How to Read Food Labels.
You are welcome to the Radiant Health Corner, Today I will be telling you some key points you need to prioritize when you go shopping for groceries. How to read your food labels, I bet you want to know this right, here you go.
HOW TO READ FOOD LABEL
First thing you should note when you are about to buy a product is that many have been fooled by the claims on the front. One of the best thing you can do for yourself is to totally ignore the labels on the front of the packaging, they are mostly deceptive and are there to attract customers, it’s simply an advertising technique.
The front label lure you by making health claims and of course you know how good it is to eat healthy so many consumers assumes that is all there is to it but you need to pay closer attention to details. See what you suppose to see and not what they want you to see, refuse to be deceived.
These manufacturer’s are entrepreneur and they will go out of their way to get their target market to buy their products, the market is a competitive one therefore everyone will be seeking for ways to make them appear better than other company’s product, they tell you theirs is the best health wise and that your health is their concern but how much of the information on the advertisements are true?
We have them making claims in the adverts while in reality it is not totally true or everything could be false and a good example includes many high-sugar breakfast cereals, they are not healthy but the manufacturers make it seem so and this leaves the consumers in a dilemma on what to buy that will benefit them health wise.
These are some simple tips on how to read food label.
1. Look at the Ingredients list
Most of the time, products ingredients are listed by quantity, from the highest to the lowest of amount, that is to say, the manufacturer used more of the first item listed in making the product. A good rule is to take note of the first three ingredients because they are the largest percentage of what the product contains
If the first ingredients contain more of refined grains, sugars or hydrogenated oils, you can be pretty sure the item is unhealthy.
Therefore when making your choice, choose items that have whole foods as the first three on the ingredients list.
Another interesting tip you will not hear in the advert is that if you noticed that the ingredients is getting longer than three lines, it shows that it is a highly processed food, you know what that means, it’s unhealthy and if that is all you feed on, you are at a greater risk of getting exposed to sicknesses you did not bargain for.
2. Watch out for Serving Sizes
At the back of the nutrition labels, they state how many calories and nutrients are in a single serving of the product. However, unknown to many consumers, this serving sizes are in more smaller proportion from what is obtainable. The manufacturers deceive people into thinking the food has less calories but in reality, many people just assume that the entire container is a single serving, little do they know it consist of two or more servings. Therefore, if you are interested in knowing the nutritional value of what you are eating, multiply the serving given on the label by the number of servings you consumed.
The rule is simple when you know the amount of calories you consume per pack; you can quickly tell how much you will be adding when you consume more than one.
3. Watch out for misleading words when reading food label
There are many words manufacturers use which is always misunderstood by consumers to mean the products are healthy. Some are just words but here lies the underlying truth, words like:
• Natural: This does not in any way mean the product resembles anything natural, probably at some point they had to use some material that has a natural source to work with, so beware.
• No added sugar: Some products have such on their label and the consumer is made to believe it is safe. Well there are no guarantees seeing that there are many names for sugar and many types of sugar, some unhealthy sugar must have been added and this is enough to make it unhealthy.
• Low fat: This label most times means that the fat has been reduced but it is at the cost of adding more sugar and you know sugar is unhealthy, you should be careful to read the ingredients at the back so you are not misled.
• Made with low grain: Like I said earlier, the manufacturers are smart and are profit oriented, the product might have so little to do with low grain, you can justify the claim by seeing if whole grain is one of the first three on the ingredient list.
• Fruit flavored: Many processed foods have a name that refers to a natural flavor, we have many orange juice, strawberry flavored drinks etc. These products are not necessarily made from the natural fruit as a matter of fact, they may not have used any fruit but there are chemicals, flavors that are made to taste like real fruits and most times they are unhealthy.
• Zero trans-fat: This means “less than 0.5 grams of trans fat per serving.” But you know the serving sizes are most times ridiculously small, you might be consuming more trans-fat if you consume more of the product.
Having said all these, let us note that there are many healthy foods too that are whole grain, natural or with low fat or calorie but it does not mean that once they are stated on the product the claims are true. Go extra mile and check for yourself, don’t get carried away by the adverts.
Truth be told, the best way to avoid being deceived by food labels is by staying clear processed foods. However, if you decide to still go for packaged foods, ensure you go for those with higher quality and sort out the junks. Whole foods are the best and note that whole foods don’t need a list of ingredient because they are the ingredient in themselves.
For more health tips, keep reading the Radiant Pheobe’s blog, happy weekend people

Murder or Suicide - A true life story
Murder or Suicide?
"On March 23, 1994 the medical examiner viewed the body of Ronald Opus and concluded that he died from a shotgun wound to the head.
Mr. Opus had jumped from the top of a ten-story building intending to commit suicide. He left a note to the effect indicating his despondency.
As he fell past the ninth floor his life was interrupted by a shotgun blast passing through a window, which killed him instantly.
Neither the shooter nor the deceased was aware that a safety net had been installed just below the eighth floor level to protect some building workers and that Ronald Opus would not have been able to complete his suicide the way he had planned.
"Ordinarily," Dr Mills continued, "A person, who sets out to commit suicide and ultimately succeeds, even though the mechanism might not be what he intended, is still defined as committing suicide."
That Mr. Opus was shot on the way to certain death, but probably would not have been successful because of the safety net, caused the medical examiner to feel that he had a homicide on his hands.
In the room on the ninth floor, where the shotgun blast emanated, was occupied by an elderly man and his wife. They were arguing vigorously and he was threatening her with a shotgun.
The man was so upset that when he pulled the trigger he completely missed his wife and the pellets went through the window striking Mr. Opus.
When one intends to kill subject "A" but kills subject "B" in the attempt, one is guilty of the murder of subject "B".
When confronted with the murder charge the old man and his wife were both adamant and both said that they thought the shotgun was unloaded.
The old man said it was a long-standing habit to threaten his wife with the unloaded shotgun. He had no intention to murder her. Therefore the killing of Mr. Opus appeared to be an accident; that is, if the gun had been accidentally loaded.
The continuing investigation turned up a witness who saw the old couple's son loading the shotgun about six weeks prior to the fatal accident.
It transpired that the old lady had cut off her son's financial support and the son, knowing the propensity of his father to use the shotgun , loaded the gun with the expectation that his father would shoot his mother.
Since the loader of the gun was aware of this, he was guilty of the murder even though he didn't actually pull the trigger.
The case now becomes one of murder on the part of the son for the death of Ronald Opus.
Now comes the exquisite twist.
Further investigation revealed that the son was, in fact, Ronald Opus.
He had become increasingly despondent over the failure of his attempt to engineer his mother's murder. This led him to jump off the ten-story building on March 23rd, only to be killed by a shotgun blast passing through the ninth story window.
The son had actually murdered himself, so the medical examiner closed the case as a suicide.
A true story from Associated Press, Reported by Kurt Westervelt

Afraid of Trials? | Noble Dee
TOPIC: Afraid of Trials?
FACILITATOR: Noble Dee Truth
Date published 11th March 2016
Early today I was meditating upon something serious in
Christendom today. Below is my submission in respect to
that thought.
As a child of God, trials, tribulations, temptations and all
the terms for things that come to test your faith in God
will come, and it is intended to make us sway and I was like “damn!...what then is the way forward? ” and then an exposition came in.
Pay attention to this: “even though you walk through the
valley of the shadow of death you shall fear no evil
because I am with you" [a paraphrase of Ps23], You get
that?
Just as there is no food without work, you can not
graduate to a higher level of power in Christianity without
passing your exams. 1Cor 4:20
Furthermore, 2Timothy 2:12 tells us that if we suffer, we
shall also reign with Him: if we deny Him, He also will
deny us. I'd love to encourage you, when and if you come
to this facet of life, always remember that the glory of the
former can not be compared to the later.
I pray that you will realise the power of the
Holy Spirit in you, harnesses His strength at all times most especially in your trying moments. You will come out as refined Gold that will be appreciated by everyone at the end of it all.
-Shalom

The Lawful Captive | Noble Dee Truth
Exposition on: The Lawful Captive
Published date: 28th May 2016
By: Noble Dee Truth
Even the LAWFUL captive was made free by the payment Christ made. Lawful captives are those souls pledge to the devil. You know every African family has it's foundation in jazz (voodoo, juju, otomopkor, call it whatever you like).
Most ancestors may have (at most times they definitely had) pledge their generation to demons manifesting as earthly gods. These unborn generations are lawful captives. The devil has a string to pull on them. No wonder the term "generational curses" exist!
Notwithstanding, I am here to announce to you that Jesus has made you free. He made a public show of principalities and powers by His triumphant resurrection! By the virtue of faith invested in you, call forth your freedom from these things.

Reconciliation Ministers | Noble Dee
In Zachariah 3 you can see that an high priest was in the presence of God and an angel, performing his duty and the devil was right beside him doing what?
If your answer is "accusing and resisting him" then you are right!
Immediately I started asking some questions, what could have given the devil the impetus to accuse that old man right before God in His presence?
Somebody say, "filthy garment." Yeah, you got that right!
Sin makes you filthy, it can make you offer up strange fires to God but, I thank God for His mercies.
He showed forth His mercy and rebuked the Devil himself in the verse 2 of that chapter but He (God) went further to issue a command that the filthy garment be taken away and his cloth changed. Please note that this happened in the old covenant era. Now we have Jesus as our garment of righteousness as promised in the verse 8 (The Branch).
But the devil is relentless in his pursuit of ruining our lives so he continues to throw in the "flesh" as a torn in believers. Lemme tell you something, if Paul said he crucifies his flesh daily it means the flesh has the capacity of being revived so, kill it everyday and live with the consciousness that Christ is your righteousness and that is is interceding on your behalf to the father. Now that is the new covenant. This new covenant is that of reconciliation.
