The family is under attack!

Oh my my my! Dear reader, I don't know if you can relate to this topic. I know that the family is under attack from my personal experience and from my careful observation of so many homes and families all around the world. 

There are so many darts and arrows that are thrown to completely destroy the family unit. These arrows include selfishness, sickness, lack of true love for God, lack of money, social media addictions, distance, pornography, domestic abuse, death or loss of a loved one, barrenness, infidelity, drugs, alcohol, being overly ruled by emotions etc. 

It pains my heart to see the number of single parents, particularly single mothers rise year after year because there is simply no other option. Children growing up in a fatherless home is on the increase and I perfectly understand why. Hmmm! Forget about the Make-up and all the nice pictures you see because it truly hides the true state of what people are going through. 

Deep hurt, lies and betrayal is on the rampage. I want to use this forum to encourage all the women that are going through one thing or the other. Be encouraged!!! I just feel a need to encourage you and by all means Men too. Be strong in the Lord. 

You know sometimes when we are faced with a particular challenge in the home, we are quick to say 'it is his/her fault' but we fail to realise that we need to face this challenge collectively as a family. 

So as this year is gradually rolling by, please continue to look  unto Jesus at all times. 

“Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
Hebrews 12:2 KJV

It's a big struggle my dear but keep fighting the good fight of faith. 

Here's another scripture that will help you and I: 

“And He was saying to them all, “If anyone wishes to follow Me [as My disciple], he must deny himself [set aside selfish interests], and take up his cross daily [expressing a willingness to endure whatever may come] and follow Me [believing in Me, conforming to My example in living and, if need be, suffering or perhaps dying because of faith in Me].”
LUKE 9:23 AMP

Remember, I luh you 😍😍😍!

      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!!!

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?

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?
