2 months ago I woke up to a number of disturbing texts from a close friend. She was in a funny state of mind, suddenly, she couldn’t pray, she struggled to worship and she began to question everything in our faith. This was quite weird for me cause this is like the Silas to my … Continue reading Crumbled to be strengthened

Heaven sounds stressful
I stumbled on a page a few weeks ago on Instagram, I really love aesthetically pleasing feeds and this person's arrangement happened to catch my attention. Her first post fortunately was on 20 facts about her, so I busied myself reading 20 facts about this stranger who curated such a beautiful feed. I am quite … Continue reading Heaven sounds stressful
Continue from where I stopped?
I had to edit a document someone had worked on today, I cannot count the number of times I stopped, took a deep breathe and said out loud, "God you have to help me". I was actually slightly angry and my anger was on how I assumed my work would be easier just editing, but … Continue reading Continue from where I stopped?
Name = Nature
Something really funny happened in high school a few years ago. One of the hostel mistresses had done something really uncalled for and she would not let me explain so I snapped at her and I told her that if she would not listen to me, I will also not listen to her (I do … Continue reading Name = Nature
Power Hungry
I have been studying the books of Samuel the last 2 weeks and I find it so interesting how the things that plague the hearts of men hasn’t changed much at all. By saying men, I actually refer to both genders. Men have remained so hungry and desirous of power and fame to the point that … Continue reading Power Hungry
To stay or walk away?
I think we’ve heard it said so often that no one is perfect, some people say it stating the reality of the human flesh we dwell in and some others just use it as an excuse to dismiss ill behaviours. Either way, a message is always conveyed, this message is that ‘another human will fall … Continue reading To stay or walk away?
Failed Love <>
There was a post scheduled to go out on Valentine’s Day this year, but it never got out, I can’t remember why but looking at it now, I think I refrained from sending it out because I was more interested in people feeling loved than regretting their past love on that day. I had tagged … Continue reading Failed Love <>
“4 years down the drain”
I will always be in awe of God. Always. I’m lying in my bed but I can’t sleep because I keep thinking about how God chooses to connect dots that we often attribute to “coincidence”. I sat with a friend talking, we randomly remembered an event that led us to a couple and I remember … Continue reading “4 years down the drain”
Running back to the cross
A friend and I crossed a new threshold recently. I have found that friendships grow stronger bonds the more vulnerability grows, so essentially, the more open you are with letting people into your space, the more bonded you'll be. Our levels of friendships with different people vary with the levels of vulnerability in each of … Continue reading Running back to the cross
Leading us to rest
About 2 weeks ago now, my older sister came to the family group chat on whats app to announce that our family dog had been taken away. We have a thing for dogs in my family so we've always had one all through our lives, from childhood to adulthood. We got steward about 4 years … Continue reading Leading us to rest
