A lot of times, we read the bible at face value, we read it with a mindset of it being too sacred to be imagined and so while we get into the characters and lives of the people we read about in novels, I doubt people often do the same for characters of the bible … Continue reading This Guy thinks we’re a joke
The little, big foxes
Two weeks ago, the Coordinator in my fellowship informed me that he would like me to preach the following Sunday. I always believe that an instruction from him to preach is divinely orchestrated from God and so though I bantered at first, I obliged and got home, praying that God gives me a focus for … Continue reading The little, big foxes
“I’m a Christian, why should this happen?”
I bet we've all been in that place where we started to question our stand in God and our belief in Him because we're experiencing things that 'Christians shouldn't be experiencing'. First off, is there really such a thing in life as 'not for Christians?' I know that coming to the realisation of our identity … Continue reading “I’m a Christian, why should this happen?”
Moments of Truth ; The man is just kind
I'm not too happy with how certain things turned out to be in our generation. I sat reminiscing on a conversation I had a few days ago and I was disappointed in myself, but even more, at the fact that there was every possibility that what I said was accurate. Of course i'll back track … Continue reading Moments of Truth ; The man is just kind
The cain-spirit
Taking a walk this morning and putting Steffany Gretzinger Pieces song on repeat, has been the highlight of my morning and definitely my day. The reality of the Love Abba has for us is always so refreshing and empowering and it is always worth it to remind ourselves and remember the price that was paid … Continue reading The cain-spirit
“This is not it”
Anyone who spoke to me physically in the last 2 weeks might describe my current state of mind as lethargic, and I would not even blame them because there are some things that you might not be able to fully express or describe and as such, the listeners around would accept and interpret it as … Continue reading “This is not it”
The free-style profession
It is a national day to celebrate children in Nigeria today. Popularly referred to as 'Children's day' and for anyone who grew up in Nigeria, you'd know how big of a deal this was, especially as the majority of Nigerian parents tend to do their best to make it memorable. Whether out in the park … Continue reading The free-style profession
What I think I need
The bible speaks of a danger in praying amiss. It says "you do not receive because you ask wrongly". So with time, we learn that praying without understanding is almost just as bad as not praying because when we pray without an understanding of what we're asking for, there is the possibility that we are … Continue reading What I think I need
Eat and stop crying!
Do we ever go to God with one thing and find that we're being focused on something else, sometimes in relation to the original request, but most times, in something completely unrelated. I remember a time in my life when I was praying for my Dad's salvation, It was a daily prayer request and it … Continue reading Eat and stop crying!
The only acceptable trials and errors
I was thinking to myself this morning how we really do not know, until we have tried. I'm of the opinion that while experience isn't the only teacher, it is a great and practical way to get a lesson. I look at people doing certain things today and I truly admire their effort and commitment, … Continue reading The only acceptable trials and errors
