* To my African sisters because the world is harder on us than anyone else, our cultures & traditions make us unique but never let it imprison you.. listen to your mother's advice but bare in mind that your parents will be talking to you about a time that no longer exists.. & like a wise woman once told me you can't heal new wounds with old medicine

* To young mothers try everything you can to not project your personal trauma's & fears onto your daughters instead teach them early the things that you wish you had known earlier.

* Never put your happiness in the hands of another human being because human beings are fickle. No one is gonna save you but YOU. Love & Light TSM

Daddy Freeze fires back at Pastor Adeboye says “A woman is more than a cook or a maid servant”

Posted: 20 Feb 2020 01:00 AM PST

Reacting, the On-Air personality made it known to Adeboye that women are not cooks or maids.

In his words; "So he can afford to pay his entire January salary as first fruit and 10 percent monthly as tithe, right? Just asking sir.

"A woman is more than a cook or a maid servant. These in my humble opinion, should not be the priority when choosing a wife in this decade.

"Although a woman who can cook is definitely a plus, as @tastebudzng has proven, we have to be careful not to discriminate against women who can't.


"Did Eve know how to cook? The scriptures are silent on it. She was flesh of Adam's flesh and bone of his bone; not his cook.

"Genesis 2:23 New Living Translation
"At last!" the man exclaimed. "This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called 'woman,' because she was taken from 'man.""

"Martha was also too busy cooking, that she almost missed out on the blessings Mary was receiving from Christ, I believe we as Christians, should focus more on what Mary was doing, instead of making little things an issue like Martha was.

"Luke 10 ,New Living Translation

"[40] But Martha was distracted by the big dinner she was preparing. She came to Jesus and said, "Lord, doesn't it seem unfair to you that my sister just sits here while I do all the work? Tell her to come and help me."

" [41] But the Lord said to her, "My dear Martha, you are worried and upset over all these details! [42] There is only one thing worth being concerned about. Mary has discovered it, and it will not be taken away from her.

"A wife has a greater role to play in a mans life than being his cook, if she can fine, if she can't it doesn't diminish her qualities as a woman. ~FRZ"
