What is your identity?

-


Hello there, this question popped up in my head while I was going through life journey. In this life many things define many people, things like money, family name and inheritance, marital status (does your marriage define you?) becoming a parent (does your children define who you are), the colour of your skin and on and on the list goes. The question is if you're stripped of all of these things, would you still have an identity? 


Let me narrow in on this matter: you see when life treats you in a way that you think it's not fair, you need to dust yourself up and do not drown in your misery. Have a self talk reminding yourself of who you were before certain things happened in your life. So I'd like to encourage you not to get stuck in the rut of life. Get up because you can and because you must!!! Your life and destiny depends on it. Don't remain a victim to negative things that has happened to you. 

So because you're a drop out, single parent, divorcee, single, blind, sick, illiterate, outcast, deprived, lonely, widowed, disabled, poor, illegal immigrant, imprisoned etc does not mean you're a failure or that your life has ended. 

Remember the scripture that says:

  'And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.'
                                                                                       Rom 8:28

These scenarios might have made you feel like less of a person by worldly standard but not by God's standard because God sees the best in us even when everyone sees the worst in us. Be encouraged!!!

My friend, it's time to dream again, it's time to make those dreams come true, it's time to be joyful from your inner soul, it's time to have a breath of fresh air! 

Per adventure, you don't know who you are, it's time to seek and discover who God made you to be through his word. Though you've been pressed but not crushed; persecuted not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed; you're blessed beyond the curse for his promise will endure! God's joy is gonna be your strength. 

Here's a little advice: when you start to feel the negative energy that wants to pollute your soul, send it out to the pit of hell. In staying through to who you are, you have to be able to guard your hearts. 

Listen my friend, feed your mind with God because he is the only faithful & loyal friend. 

GUARD YOUR HEART, YOUR PURPOSE DEPENDS ON IT!!! 

Happy new year!

      Hi, welcome to 2017! It's our year of walking with the Lord, a year you seek God like never before. I believe it's a year we need to go back to the very basics of quality time of fellowship with God. It's a year to make every effort to draw close to God no matter what you're going through.   There's just one little advice we need to adhere to; pls keep king Jesus in your boat this year. There might be storm and heavy wind but Jesus will calm it all because these elements obey him. It's a pleasure to have you take time out to visit my blog.  In here, you'll read articles that are thought provoking and life changing if you're humble enough to learn. So remember to follow this blog so that you can be notified of any future posts. So sit back and invest in yourself as you browse through these pages! Enjoy!!!

Do men really know what they are getting themselves into when they say they want to get married?

Come on people, let's talk! You know while watching Bisi Olatilo show, I saw people dancing and celebrating as a man and a woman were joined together in holy matrimony! People congratulated them, they both danced and you know during the traditional engagement - they told the man to wave bye bye to all the single ladies! I wish that was easy as it looked!!!! Hmmm! You know from my own experience; if you've ever been privileged to do the traditional engagement you'll discover that everything you do there is symbolical of the virtues you need to embrace in marriage! Think about it! So back to the men - have you discovered that most marriage troubles stem from the man?
