Exodus 4:1-2 2.  And the Lord said unto him (Moses) , ' What is that in thine hand ?' And he said, 'A rod'. 2Kings 4:1-2 Elisha asked the window, “ Tell me, what do you have in the house ?” “Nothing at all, except a small jar of olive oil,” she replied. Sometimes, we don't know how great that 'small' substance we have is until we put it to use. Moses' rod might have looked ordinary, but it did wondrous things (parted the red sea, brought forth water from a rock, turned into a serpent, was a mighty instrument during the plagues) Remember the widow with a 'small' jar of oil, I am very sure she didn't know that her 'small' jar of oil could fill several bigger jars until there were no more jars. The gift that seemed to be the source of Joseph's predicaments was the same that brought him out of prison and in turn made him the prime minister. The moral here is that you might not know how great the gift of God might t...

Life is in phases People are in colours We meet and then part ways Some are meant to be together Some, to part ways I never realized how spending About 750 hours of my life with you Could be of so much impact I can only wish we would stay together forever But life's roles have to be played out At this phase of my life, I met you all, and now, Some of you, I'll leave Some memories are never fading No, not with me As we journey through life And we become part of other families We will come to realise that our presence In these different families will make those Families intertwine To some of you, I got the chance to say these words, To others, I didn't But, to all of you, I mean them These words that will never change Now, if this is the only chance I have, I'll say I LOVE YOU To the A-TEAM, The team that strove to make it through The team that remained unified Even to the very end I am honoured ...

    It is always such a blessing to sit under the ministration of one my mentors (some of my friends must have heard me talk about her) Pastor Damilola Otolorin. Last Sunday was really great as she preached on 'Intimacy With God' and she explained how we can use the Five Love Languages to build a very intimate relationship with God. I'll just share my little understanding of the message.     Intimacy is a close, familiar, personal, usually affectionate relationship with a deep knowledge or understanding with an entity.     God created us in His image and that explains why the love languages are also applicable to getting intimate with God. In no particular order, here are the 5 love languages and a little bit on how to use them to get closer to God. 1. QUALITY TIME : How much time do you spend fellowshipping with God? Is it just the daily routine morning and sometimes, evening prayers? Is it just on Sundays at church? Why not spend more ti...

BEAUTY FOR ASHES - 1      There has been a lot of talks, quotes, seminars, admonishments on self love, self confidence, embracing of skin colour, shape, size, and personality. Yet, some people still cannot relate to all of these. Now, this could be because of a lot of events such as bad past experiences, sexual abuse, habits, skin faults, lack of love from people that matter to them, scars, physical deformity, or just lack of contentment.           It seems easy for someone to teach or preach all the self love, acceptance and high self esteem thing and yet another still can't relate to them, I know because I have been there.           Of course I knew the importance of having a high self  esteem and all but I couldn't practice all that I heard and had been taught about it, because for some time in my life, I didn't like myself, I felt that I was just one unhealthy looking, thin and very smallish girl and th...

Dear Jhummie,     I love you so much and I want the very best for you that is why I have decided to write this letter to you.        Do you know that a man can be 'LOOKING' handsome, godly, and gorgeous BUT has been rejected by God. Eliab was handsome, had the appearance of a king, but was rejected by God. 1 Sam. 16:6-7.      My dear, don't settle for him who has just the appearance of a king but wait for your rightful king, the chosen one, to come. He will be just like David. 1 Samuel 16:12 (NIV) says; '... He (David) was glowing with health, and had a fine appearance and handsome features...' (NLT)  '... He was dark and handsome with beautiful eyes...' and then he was anointed and chosen by God himself... OMG! now that's the kind of man I'm talking about, the kind of man I want you to pray for, wait for, prepare for, the kind made for a QUEEN like you. But, you have to remain a queen to get a king like him.     ...

When I rise, full of love for life and laughter, and the me that I am, Love will meet me... When I rise, above my own neediness fears and frustrated tears, and allow myself to be warmed by the Son, Love will shine on me... When I rise, past prayerlessness, desperate hopes, sleepless nights and wondering why I'm alone, Love will wrap me in its arms... When I rise, beyond sacrificing who I am, mistreating my heart and giving my affections too freely to the ungrateful... When I rise, above accepting scraps when I crave for a whole slice of cake,  reaching for carrots that are merely mirages of together forever,  accepting another's rejection as validation of my undesirability... When I rise, oh when I rise. When I rise above it all, my wings will carry me to a place called faith and deliverance, a place where the lies whispered in the dark must flee in the face of such intense light. For this is the place where God is and love dwells, ...
