Life

Oh dear, this post is for you! And the answer is a big fat YES! Your life is VALID and guess what? The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob that i know is so beautiful for every situation.  Unlike how the society might make you feel like you’re an outcast or your situation is so hopeless, guess what God wants to give you Joy in that situation that looks so gloomy.  I couldn’t help but think while praying this prayer in church on Sunday - “Now therefore hear this, you lover of pleasures, who sit securely, who say in your heart, “I am, and there is no one besides me; I shall not sit as a widow or know the loss of children”:” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭47:8‬ ‭ESV‬‬   Verse 8b declares that may we not sit as a widow or know the loss of children in Jesus mighty name. Amen  But if this has been your reality, I can’t but imagine the kind of emotions you’ll be feeling when you hear prayer points like this. Oh yes, this is a sad thing for anyone to experience but is God with you even when it happe

Yes how lost do you think you are right now? Are you so lost that you think there’s no more hope for you? When you look at your situation, do you feel like you’re far from the society’s definition of a perfect life? Are you drinking yourself to stupor just to numb the pain in your subconscious mind? Are you partying so loud that you don’t want to hear the silent voice in your head? Do you think your life is a complete mess? Well, if you’ve said yes to any of these questions, this post is for you? Whatever your current situation is right now, that is why Jesus came. He came to save you! Yes you! He wants to reach you like no one else can. He feels your pain and he will not leave you without a hope. Forget all the lies in your head, your life can still be beautiful because God specialises in situations that look humanly impossible. Don’t lose hope because this life is not all that there is. It is just a dress rehearsal for the main life so enjoy the ride and the journey. 

Oh dear! This just dropped into my spirit and I’ll like to invite you into my thought process.  Are you living below your potential? Can you truly say that you are maximising all your gifts, talents, great abilities, resources, knowledge, network and your circle of influence to a greater capacity?  Why have you slowed down or paused living to your full potential? At what stage did you pitch a tent at a place of pain and hurt? What stopped you from truly living and not just existing? Hmmm, this is deep! 

Hello, are you good? Yes you! What has been on your mind? Or the question is how has your mind become like this? Well for some, their mind has really become so good and positive. They have grown, healed and become very optimistic about life. They have decided to live their lives with no apology. They have made up their mind to stand up for what they believe in; stand up for what is right, speak up for the voiceless and be very intentional about their life. Oh, I’ll be so glad if that is your story because this is a great perspective to have about life.  I’ve discovered that IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO GUARD OUR MINDS! I mean, I cannot emphasise it enough.  The mind is something that no one can see but it is so close to us and so loud in silence. I’ve come to observe people that had the best of intentions and goals about life and family come to a place where they cannot handle or cope with their realities because of what they’ve accommodated in their minds for many years.  It is n

I’ve discovered that in life, the way you perceive what happens to you is directly proportional to how emotionally healthy you’ll become. How do you interpret the way people behave toward you and around you? What story is going on in your mind? I’m presently learning that if a person has not fully healed from a dysfunction e.g. childhood dysfunction or even traumatic experiences in life, a person can have a skewed perception of things in life.   Past experience has shaped our understanding of the world and our patterns of thought and behaviour. Experience has taught us to see how to perceive certain situations, what to expect from others or ourselves, and how to behave in different situations. For example, if most of our classroom experiences have been humiliating or unpleasant, we may enter a new classroom ready to fight and defend ourselves, or to be afraid. Culture inclines us to view some behaviours as positive and others as negative.  So it is extremely important to c
