Light seeks LIGHT: 2/?
After I made the first post ‘Quiet’, a sister reached out to me asking: ‘Do you think people want better, beyond the material? Do people desire the truth, deep down within them? Do people want GOD’s love and not just material things?’ Yes, yes we all do. Her question took me down memory lane into…
PRAYER IS NOT THE ‘MASTER’ KEY.
—30/07/24. The title of this article is funny and ironic. Mostly because in my second book, All you have to be is Light, I wrote that prayer is the master key. Growth happens gradually. I have come to a realisation that does not negate the idea of prayer being the master key but broadens it.…
Quiet: 1/?Â
When I was 14, I wanted my parents to be my adopted parents and Dangote to be my real father. At 16, I just wanted to get into school because all my mates were undergraduates so I couldn’t care less if I got Law or not—I changed my course. At 20, I lived for the…
LEAVE YOUR NAME TO BEAR GOD.
—26/06/24. To start over with GOD, drop the very thing that makes you, you. Leave your name to bear GOD. There’s something I genuinely wonder about. It revolves around what it takes for a person to be fully given to GOD. I have heard endless stories about Christians who would have died for the Gospel…
THE GOSPEL OF ACQUIRED TASTE.
—23/05/24. What is your acquired taste? This is one of those mornings where I wake up with a burden in my spirit. As I pray, I retrieve what the Lord has deposited in my spirit. He says, ‘JUST OBEY’. I wonder if this is not something I already know and I probe further for the…

If you have ever struggled to pray while getting tempted to get up and try again another day, then this post is for you! Our devotion to God must be daily but what happens when the world gets under our skin and our minds get filled with unrest and anxiety even while in the presence…
Where to find a Christian Hedonist.Â
Maranatha believes in savoring food over rapid consumption, a view Fems humorously brands ‘Christian Hedonism.’ In a letter, Maranatha explains that finding pleasure in life aligns with God’s will, whether in good times or bad. She reflects on her journey from strictness to embracing joy in Christ, seeing pleasure as inclusive of both enjoyment and…
Another posthumous birthday, brother.
I wonder how, I wonder why, I wonder where you are. 02/06/23. Emeka, happy birthday. 🎂 I remember. I do. I always say that the people who are forgotten are the ones who have no one to remember them. I think this is true. The ones we know who have attained immortality despite physical death…
Heaven or hell?
The existence of hell is proof of God’s cruelty? 26/05/23. Dear Cheryl, I am writing today. not to share obtained knowledge but to articulate a heaviness that thoughts alone cannot decipher. I’ve been thinking a lot about heaven and hell. I made peace with death in 2020, the Corona pandemic year. I wasn’t born-again then,…
I forgot my password.
Who the hell locks a Note on their phone that already has a password + Face ID? Me. Me the hell. 02/01/23. Dear Cheryl, It’s morning. I’ve just woken up to pray and study my Bible. I pick up my phone and head to my latest worship playlist on Apple Music to pull me from…
