It's really not everything in the news that's deserving of your comment, or even attention. When I first saw this, I honestly didn't know what to say or how to feel about it. And with the different opinions flying around now, I've had to address mine.
Yes, ordinarily, it'd be none of my business. But it's now news, shared by @officiallindaikeji herself, for public consumption, #opinion and/or praise. It makes a bold statement, because she's a successful and very influential #singlelady, who also claims to be a worshipper and #Believer in #JesusChrist. It says a lot that not only is she #pregnant, she's showing it off and is blatantly happy about it.
Now, @adenikeoyetunde asked if we can congratulate someone who's pregnant #outofwedlock, and many of the responses have been yes and of course. I don't really think that's the issue. Many say #babies are always a #gift from God, especially as many seek but do not have. But while I believe #LIFE is always a gift for those who have life, having a baby is primarily a #RESPONSIBILITY for those who have them, whether by intention or by accident.
That for me is the bottom line. I wouldn't congratulate a friend of mine who's a drug addict, just because she's pregnant! I'd be very concerned for that child, even if she's happy about it. I also wouldn't be quick to congratulate a prostitute who gets pregnant, because she might have mixed feelings about it, and may want to actually abort the #baby! Again, I'd be concerned with the #welfareofthechild.
In every case, the welfare of the #child is what is important, followed by the joy of the parent/s! Even a child born to a very unhappy couple in the throes of domestic violence or divorce wouldn't warrant congratulations!!! So, #beingmarried or not isn't really the issue either.
In #LindaIkeji's case, she's obviously #happy about #beingamother, she's in a position to look after and raise this child well, and she has a strong supportive network of friends and family! In this situation, I think we can all rejoice with those who rejoice, and leave #judgment to #God! It's really too late to offer an opinion about how the child came to be. It won't help #motherandchild. My 2 kobo

THINK BIG!
Hey you! Yes you. You want to be rich? Cutting corners and scheming in search of fast riches? Labouring all your life to save for retirement that may or may not come? You’re thinking too small. Think BIG! Think true wealth. Do not store up for yourself treasures on Earth, where thieves can break in and steal (Matt 6:19-20)… Store up treasure in Heaven by forsaking all to God (Luke 12:33). Though you give up houses and possessions, you gain much more, even in this life…and in the one to come (Matt 19:29). Hey you! Yes, you over there working out. You want to be fit? You’re watching your weight, what you eat and wear, hoping to stay youthful a little longer? You’re thinking too small. Think BIG! Think enduring health. We will all die one day, but some of us will live forever, with new healthy, beautiful and strong bodies that will never age (1 Cor 15:52-54)… But only because we submitted our lives to Christ, and our bodies to be His home (Luke 9:24, 1 Cor 6:19). When you do not worry about what you will eat or wear, God will take care of you and you have more time for love (Matt 6:27-34)! Read more at https://ufuomaee.blog/think-big/

Thanks Kristina! I will keep this to remember for those days I feel like the worst mother on Earth... 🤗
Regrann from @kristinakuzmic - Have I mentioned that I’m rooting for you? Have I told you that if I ever see you out in public in your pajamas, I’ll be tempted to high-five you? Have I told you that if I see your kid throwing a tantrum at the grocery store, I won’t think that your kid is a brat or that you’re a bad mom? Have I told you how normal I think you are for not enjoying every single minute of motherhood? Have I told you how strong I think you are every time you reach out for help? Have I told you that I understand what it’s like to feel like less than, to be lonely, to lose hope, to feel stuck?
If you’ve never heard it from me before, please hear it now: You are already enough. But in the busyness and stress of life, you’ve forgotten to give yourself enough credit for all the things you accomplish each day, for how fiercely you love your family, for how much your life matters.
Hard parenting days won’t last forever. Hard life days aren’t permanent either. Somehow it all gets better as long as you stay feisty, stay grateful and keep moving forward. I’m rooting for you! 📷 by @kateslewis - #regrann
