Are you wavery?

I heard that Dragon Totem Stainless bottle is unique. Be it hot or cold, your liquid will remain at the almost exact temperature, for many hours. True to the words of a former user, it is indeed unique and I am enjoying the product.

Are you who you say you are?

Can your neighbour vouch for you outside your immediate environment?

If you find yourself in a terrible situation and it is only your neighbour/co-worker/family, that can save you. Will their testimonies about you rescue you or put you in more problem?

Can people say this about you, "Emeka will never do such?"

"Cynthia will never say that kind of thing?"

How do you portray yourself everywhere you go?

Are you hot or cold?

Or do you switch moods like the weather?

Or are you like my Stainless bottle? You can adapt to the temperature of whatever liquid you are filled with.

Be it as it may, as children of the most high God, we should always exhibit a Christ-like behaviour, everywhere we find ourselves... in conduct, in speech... in attire... and in everything else. People should be able to say, "Oh yes! That is truly a child of God."

Selah (Think Deep)

Don't Lose Hope

I spoke to a woman living in the neighbourhood this morning, and she was complaining of how Herdsmen led their cows to her maize farm. Her money, sweat, and harvest disappeared in less than three hours! She had hoped that by harvest time, she would have enough corn to eat, sell, and make flour from the rest. But now, her hopes were dashed 😔 

When will all these obstacles end? How many of us can afford foodstuff these days? Ordinary vegetables have turned to gold!. And some of us that are trying to farm and provide food for ourselves, while we sow, others are basking in our harvest 😢 

Are you feeling like your hope has been erased due to some disappointments you encountered this morning, last night, or during the week?

Don't lose hope! Though the manifestation of your miracles may tarry, it will surely come to pass! Habkk.2:3

I pray for you today, your expectations will not be cut short in the mighty name of Jesus!

An Unpredictable Day

Woke up this morning to meet an empty 12.5kg cooking gas cylinder and no available electric current. 🤯 My mind went on a 360 degree thinking spree... If NEPA brings back the light now, I can use the hot plate to boil water for the kids to bath and also make their lunch. 

As at 6:30am, there was no sign of electricity. Jesus! Will the children use cold water to bath? The weather is super cold due to the continous rain fall. They might have to endure a cold bath. This is definitely unavoidable. They are already late for school. And we can't wait for NEPA.

While they bathed, my thoughts went on a race. What will I put in their lunch pack? Now that making Jollof rice was off the table. I settled on bread and butter. It won't suffice but, it will keep them for a few hours. Thank God it's Friday. They will come home early and fill their bellies in the afternoon. 

When the kids left for school, I began to ponder on what to do. How was I going to make breakfast for myself and the head of the house? We need electricity. We need cooking gas. How much is gas now? What was the last price I bought it? Where did I keep the receipt? 

Truth be told, due to some unpalatable navigations, we don't have the money to refill our cooking gas cylinder today. I am already praying that God will send His angels to the NEPA office in charge of distributing light to my area. And also arrange circumstances, so that I can make sales today https://selar.co/m/serahiyare. And also touch someone's heart, nudging them in my direction (expecting alert).

Nevertheless, life happens to all... regardless of the situation you find yourself in this morning, give thanks. God knows your wants and needs and desires. I assure you, He will come through for you and me. He will not be Late! Rom. 8:28

FromHimToYou

In all your pursuit for stability, shelter, multiple sources of income, livelihood, relationship, education, partnership, wealth, endeavours, this year... 

Let this year, this 2024, be all about Him... Your First Love... Jesus.

This current period can be likened to the writhing pains of a pregnant woman. It's like the agony will never stop 😔 But in due time and season, you will surely breakforth, like the birth of a new born! Wipe away those tears and rejoice! Again i say REJOICE! 😂

The Holy Spirit and I (4)

 Hmmm...

When you think you miss Him, be well assured that He misses you more.

Staying away can be hard, but it gets easier with time.

That's why, whenever I feel I am far away, I run back to Him, as fast as my legs can carry me.

It's like a reunion between two lovers. 

Sweet, sweet Holy Spirit, help me to be nearer to you, closer than the air I breathe.

The Holy Spirt and I (3)

 Season after Season

The Holy Spirit has remained the same! Unchanging in His ways, forever constant. Good to know that no matter what, He will never, ever let me go or slip away.

And even when I don't come as often as I should, He waits patiently, with His arms forever opened wide.

What joy!

The Holy Spirt And I - 2

Knowing fully well that you will never ever let me go has filled me with so much joy and confidence.
