No Faith in Deceit

She is above 35 years; she is getting close to 40, yet still single.
She is industrious and, of course, beautiful.

However, due to societal pressure, she would always present herself to strangers as a married woman.

Sometimes she wears wedding ring in her forth finger. Only her neighbours and co-workers know that she’s not married yet.

But the marital delay continues because she is projecting to the public the image she is not.

Don’t project the image you’re not, but strive to become who you want to be.

Students who pretended they were brilliant in the class ended up failing.

Those who pretended they didn’t need help ended up losing potential helpers.

Those who deceived people that they are from rich background, though from humble background, forfeited the grace that should have been extended to them, either from God or from man.

You’ve got to stay true to yourself. There’s no faith in deceit.

However, regardless of whom you are, strive to be better.
