As a result of how reflective I am, I find that I document a lot, keeping time stamps, notes or pictures of some of the most random events in my life, because I know my mind will cast back to it one day, and when that day comes, I usually want to remember in full … Continue reading My Memoir of Year One

At a glance
Over the last couple of months, I’ve had the privilege of becoming a student of my husband, Nelson. It’s become so easy for me to tell when something is on his mind, or if he’s displeased about something. It’s the strangest thing, I can just walk into a room he is in and at a … Continue reading At a glance
Does the answer ever come?
Earlier today I opened my Facebook app and the first post that hit me was a picture of a woman I admired all through my adolescence and teenage-hood. I never got as close enough as I would’ve liked to share my admiration, but from afar I actually loved her and all she represented in her … Continue reading Does the answer ever come?
Unchosen & Unpicked
In Acts 1, we read of the method the disciples deploy to choose another disciple to replace Judas who had died at that point. The bible tells us they had two main options; Joseph and Mathias, and after they had prayed, the bible said they cast lots among themselves and the lot fell to Mathias, … Continue reading Unchosen & Unpicked
Blame the 99
I recently came across a video on Instagram posted by a lady. The caption in the video was “Here’re the church members that supported me through my divorce”.

Everyday I notice something new in me, funny that I can often trace it back to my husband. My mind has been influenced by living with him for almost three months now. I’m getting conditioned to what he likes and doesn’t like and I find that my brain has started to pick it up as … Continue reading Getting lost
My million dollar question
My most frequent and favourite question I get these days is “how has marriage been?” While I feel no pressure to respond to this question, I recognise that I get to be a placard and advocate for healthy Christian marriages in the large pool of horrendous news on what has become of marriages today. So … Continue reading My million dollar question
The Long Courtships …
Earlier this week, my partner and I would’ve been 5 years courting, if not that we got married a month ago! No, we didn’t plan to date or court that long, circumstances around us from the time we met to the time we got married necessitated that we waited that long to get married. Circumstances … Continue reading The Long Courtships …
Our Growth Strategy
Gods system is designed to grow the believer no matter the point we are in the faith, God seeks growth, one that is often evidenced in our relations to our neighbour, and not necessarily as individual entities, because the fruits of the Spirit are often tested in the midst of people and not always in … Continue reading Our Growth Strategy
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
