I grew up with two older sisters, I got away with a lot because of it. I didn’t learn to take responsibility very early because either of my older sisters was always present and they were the ones charged with responsibilities, I just had to do what they said. I got so used to it, … Continue reading We’re here.
The other family
I’m still perplexed each time I remember that only 8 people ended up in the ark with Noah before God sent the flood. It gets even more worrisome for me to realise that the 8 comprised of himself, his wife, 3 children and 3 daughter in laws. There was no other outsider. Not even extended … Continue reading The other family
Death sounds better…
I love encountering Christians that are brave enough to ask the questions that the majority of Christians shy away from. The ones who have become comfortable in their salvation and know that they won’t be guilty of blasphemy for saying things how it is on their heart. They’ve come to understand that reverential fear of … Continue reading Death sounds better…
Positioning taking priority
Reading about the life of Jesus will have you in awe of the kind of fearlessness Jesus displayed, in His words and actions. I read a scripture today and after getting an understanding of it, I thought to myself, “wow, the fearlessness of being Jesus”, and the Holy Spirit corrected me and said “no, it’s … Continue reading Positioning taking priority
The Wise, the Foolish and the Loved
Few things make me cry like an atmosphere filled with a tangible presence of the love of God. It’s so tangible you might be able to literally feel a presence around you. First time I experienced this was the afternoon I gave my life to Christ, the time I committed to walking intentionally with God … Continue reading The Wise, the Foolish and the Loved

Growing up in Nigeria and hearing people speak Hausa often around me, it was inevitable that the language will crawl up on me at some point, and it did, because a good portion of learning is subconscious. Hence why they often tell parents to be careful what their children are exposed to, because the environment … Continue reading Free extras
Unyielding and Hardened
God sent prophet Ezekiel to the people of Israel in Ezekiel 3 and God said to him that “I will make you as unyielding and hardened as they are.”Ezekiel 3:8 God said this to him after acknowledging the fact that the people of Israel were “hardened and obstinate”. I wondered why Gods solution to a … Continue reading Unyielding and Hardened
Not-so-pretty revelations
Thank God for tests in life that reveal our vulnerability, thank God that they face us with practicalities and not just what we think we know. I think with Gods word too, it’s so easy to be convinced of being fully persuaded by the word of God, up until a test comes and you’re faced … Continue reading Not-so-pretty revelations
Jumping with our short rope
I’ve been meditating on the little boy in the bible whose lunch fed 5000 men with leftovers. We talk about the miracle of the multiplication too often without the source of the little that brought the plenty. He probably had no idea what his lunch was going to do that day, I imagined he even … Continue reading Jumping with our short rope
Shameless to this world
I’ve been reading about a woman named Kara Tippets in the last few days. She’s not that famous so don’t worry if you’ve never heard about her. She was a Christian woman who braved a season of cancer while raising four children and serving her God. I think what made her stand out the way … Continue reading Shameless to this world
