I like to tell myself I get out of my comfort zone often. But recently, I've been convicted about the lie that the above statement is. Today though, I did something very out of my zone, good, but crazy and I actually spent the whole day reminiscing on how it all transpired and thinking if … Continue reading >>> Comfort Zone <<<
The Sinful Woman
Another unnamed woman in the bible 🙃 I was sure she had a name till I returned to read the story properly and realised she was referred to as the sinful woman. As most stories in the bible, we are not really given an introductory or background story to this woman, she literally just made … Continue reading The Sinful Woman
Michal
Ideally we should remember Michal as the wife of David but more than half of the time, shes either not named or named last as David's wife. Ironically she was the first woman David married. Michal definitely suffered some deep emotional trauma because the bible expressly describes how she loved David, but not once did … Continue reading Michal
What does your cover look like today?
I personally think it can be a disadvantage to know something for so long. For some reason, it begins to move to a point you've known it so much, you don't value it's potency or realise it's true meaning. A lot of times it is unconscious really so no shade at anyone. If I got … Continue reading What does your cover look like today?
Rahab
Rahab introduced a category of girls in the bible termed "bad for a season, but not forever" She was one of the most unfortunate bad girls in the bible. I say unfortunate because unlike most of them, Rahab's escapades were known in her society. People actually knew, identified and referred to her as a harlot. … Continue reading Rahab
Sapphira
I think this is one of the most beautiful feminine names in the bible. What makes it all the more captivating is the fact that it actually means beautiful or precious! If it was in a similar setting to now, I reckon people struggled to pronounce it which for me is a repelling effect, seeing … Continue reading Sapphira
Delilah!
I think majority of people knew Delilah before they read her story, For me personally, I observed that it was mostly used as profanity on the subjects it was used on. Apart from Jezebel, Delilah is the other name that any parent would have to be completely ignorant to give their daughters. I even personally … Continue reading Delilah!
Pace and Stride
Everyday, I walk roughly 40 mins to work and back, I had the option of using the bus, but seeing how many times it made me late, I resorted to walking. At first I was terribly exhausted after every walk but I actually got used to it after the first week, and now, it's such … Continue reading Pace and Stride
The Samaritan woman at the well
If you're me, you've seriously wondered why she was also not named although Wikipedia calls her Photine.. This woman was blessed in ways I can't even begin to explain. I know sometimes how much I long to have Jesus sit in front of me face to face and have a conversation with Him. Not because … Continue reading The Samaritan woman at the well
Lot’s wife
Lots wife's story is one that will always resonate within me. It was one of the first bible stories I ever memorised because my young mind couldn't completely grasp how a human being became a pillar of salt, but it still doesn't beat the story of Jonah in a fishes belly for 3 days... From … Continue reading Lot’s wife
