I'M WINNING!

Image
To all the doors that got slammed in my face, God opened new doors! To all who mocked me at my back, It's safe to say I'm laughing last! To all who left me stranded, God picked me up and is making me a masterpiece! To all who thought I wasn't good enough or too much to handle, God whispered into my ears saying, "You're good enough and more than enough baby!" To all who looked away when I need a Mother-figure, God sent my Grandmother-In-Law and we're beginning to share identical looks! To all who stole from me, you can keep all you stole from me. It will go out of style in the next few years and I'll have the limited edition! To all who couldn't handle my imperfection, it's okay to distant yourself, I wasn't sent to everybody! To all who looked down on me and currently are, I am very conscious about my worth and so un-bothered about your delusional opinion! To all who swore I couldn't have a home, I'm creating an ic...

Go Back To The Drawing Board!

Image
When things aren't adding up, quit the complaints and go back to the drawing board and start all over! The drawing board gives you freedom to evaluate, erase the initial plan and  replot the course for actualizing divine purpose. Scriptural Passage: {Numbers 11:1-2} "The people began to complain to the LORD about their troubles. When the LORD heard them, He was angry and sent fire on the people. It burnt among them and destroyed one end of the camp." The above scriptural passage explicitly show us the dangers of complaints and grumbling. No one is comfortable with a crying baby, even God. Complaining non-stop about an unruly situation without investigating the root cause and tackling it by applying effective measures to redeem you will only do you a disservice. Ever been in a situation where you complain and grumble about everything that is weighing you down and begin to bore the people around you, making them feel uncomfortable? Well, That was my case a...

SELF LOVE

Image
It is the act of eliminating all the equations around you but ensuring you remain a constant. Self love is the ability to say a firm no to the inadequacies around you and taking appropriate measures to put a final stop to repeat occurrences. It's the ability to ''unlink'' your happiness with people, places and things. It entails treating one's self to the best of nature's finest and enjoying your own company. It is the ability to recognize that life is not fair and making it fair to you. Self love technically means living in isolation but not suffering depression. It entails being disciplined enough to remain on your lane when people are going south. I remember relocating to Abuja in April 2015 with a broken heart. I had just concluded the burial rites of my late mum. I vulnerably searched for security in the wrong places, people and things but it was an epic fail. Then I sought for help in the Lord and He thought me the Art of self love. Even tho...

ISOLATION

Image
Isolation is the state of being detached or separated from other people. It is true that no man is an island but there comes a time in one's life when he or she will have to isolate him or her self from the crowd, given that some people take it upon themselves to distract you from your focus and are aimed at ridiculing, oppressing and silencing you. Joseph was isolated from his family at a particular period of time, when he was sold into slavery by his blood brothers to Egyptian merchants. From that period till the time he became the governor of Egypt, he did not have any contact with them until the appointed time.(See Genesis 37:18-36 ) It was in his isolation period that he passed through several processes that edified his spirit and molded him into the perfect gentle man that served his generation. Anchor scripture: { Mathew 14:23 } "After He had sent the crowds away, He went up on the mountain by Himself to pray, and when it was evening, he was there alon...
