Man United Secures Usain Bolt’s Dream.

OLYMPIC sprint legend Usain Bolt’s dream of playing for Manchester United is to come true — at pal Rio Ferdinand’s testimonial next month.

The world’s fastest man will pull on a Red Devil’s shirt for the match against Seville at Old Trafford.
A reliable source confirms: “Usain has finally got his wish and he’ll be lining up alongside Rio.

“It should be quite a game. It will be fascinating to see if Usain’s speed will be matched by his passing and ball control.”

Jamaican Bolt, 26, previously begged ex-United boss Sir Alex Ferguson to give him a chance to try out for the team. He said:
“I know I could make a difference. I’d be the fastest in the team — but I can play as well.”

And defender Rio convinced Fergie to let the 100metre and 200metre Olympic champ have a run out in United’s friendly against Real Madrid this summer.

The plan appeared to have been scuppered after Fergie retired at the end of last season to be replaced by Everton’s David Moyes.

But Rio has persuaded the new boss to let Bolt play in his testimonial, which comes after more than a decade at Old Trafford.

Bolt’s selection for the August 9th friendly is expected to be announced by the club next week.

SPECIAL EDITION: PRAY OVER YOUR MARRIAGE and another love story

Dear readers, Words are powerful. I have learnt to let most of the things I say be positive and contain a prayer. Praying God's word over your marriage is important. Marriage is a blessing from God, but it is not always cherished the way it should be; Maybe because life gets busy, or we get distracted; Maybe because we start to take one another for granted; Or we disagree and let resentments hang on longer than they should. Hm! I was taught recently that the baggages we bring along from our past, into our marriages are a great burden as well. We take these baggages for granted but believe you me, most old baggages, are the cause of most broken marriages. Some baggages are in the form of old girlfriends and boyfriends who are witches and wizards, or left some kind of spiritual bonding with your spouse. Some are in the form of just clingy exes. Some baggages may even just be low self esteem or extreme high expectations. When joined as ''one'', a new battle to...

THE NAKED MARRIAGE

Welcome dear Readers, You must be thinking that I want to talk about sex today. But hey, we will be talking about that plus a lot more. True intimacy requires what happens in the bedroom plus a lot more. In the beginning, God created Adam and Eve, the first couple. They lived in an ideal world; no debt, no no crazy in laws, no baggage, no stress, no fighting and and also, NO CLOTHING! (Gen 2:25) When God reveals unto us a naked marriage, He is revealing to us something more than just walking around the house with no clothes on or just sex. He is revealing the importance of TRANSPARENCY, VULNERABILITY,ACCEPTANCE and INTIMACY at every level of the relationship. I am suggesting we become more intentional about working on our relationships this way. Love is honest. Love is trust. You open yourself to temptations when you decide not to live in a naked marriage. These temptations have led many down the path of doom. My husband used to believe trust in a marriage is a sacrifice. T...

MAKING THE CONSCIOUS EFFORT 1

Welcome Dear Readers, Have you ever heard someone say ,"I am still with you, ain't I?" "If i didn't love you, I would not be with you". Or better still, "No one marries his or her enemy." Well all these statements can be true but when it becomes an anthem , then whoever is singing it, is in fact missing something. Making a relationship work takes effort. Effort I describe as conscious. You decide with your heart, mind and energy,physical energy to work your relationship towards success. If you are married,with kids, it as well become double Effort. Years back, I would constantly nag my husband of not loving me because he paid more attention to people outside our home. His favorite line in response to me was, "Did I marry them? Am I not with you?" You may be laughing now thinking this man... But this statement would pierce my heart to the core. I would cry my eyes out and sometimes even refuse to eat. I recently learnt to pray ...
