Akunnaya.
Akunnaya means ‘her father’s wealth’. 12/05/23 Cheryl, I was speaking to my dad, or rather my dad was talking to me, last week when he called me ‘Akunnaya’. I know we talk about butterflies when we fall in love or when our crush finally looks at us. But I felt something bigger than butterflies as…
I hear the song He sings over me.
My heart has written. 05/05/23 Dear Cheryl, I wrote this… poem sometime last month. I cannot remember the exact circumstances, but while I prayed this morning, my heart remembered it again in fondness and longing. I named it ‘my heart has written’ because it is a new song from a part of my soul I…
‘Somersault. Jump up. Fall down and die.’
Here’s the winning strategy to defeat all your haters and enemies. 28/04/23 Dear Cheryl, I never really understood my parents praying against ‘enemies’ and casting and binding people — especially when we, the children, knew very well the specific human beings their prayers were directed at. But as I grow older, I realise that some…
God wants me to be poor?
Is there a middle ground between prosperity and poverty gospel? Some time ago, I was convinced that God wanted me to be poor. Was it not in the Scriptures? Was Jesus a ‘rich’ man? Maybe I am being greedy by wanting the good things in life. As you already know, I was wrong. There is…
I lied. I don’t wanna go out more.
Here is the story of an experiment gone wrong. 13/11/22 Dear Cheryl, I’m a homebody. Full-time, no days off. ‘Why don’t we ever go out? Our lives are like a triangle, from home to work to church and back home. It has to change this year.’ This was Amanda, my closest friend, complaining about our…

Lord, I want a soft heartNot a heart that won’t stray, but a heart that won’t fight You when You call me back.…
To remind you of God’s love
“Turn your ear to listen to me;Â rescue me quickly.Be my rock of protection, a fortress where I will be safe.”Psalms 31:2, NLT. God loves you very much. I wish there were a better way I could tell you, but this pretty much sums it up nicely. I feel we say those words often but don’t…
The name of my next book is…
So, this is what it feels like to be used by God. 23/10/22 Dear Cheryl, Lights, camera, ICON. I felt blessed when I released my first book, The Devotional Cheat Code. A comment by my friend (aka, my forever and always), Emmah, on an Instagram post where I expressed how writing had gone beyond talent…
I don’t know how to handle disappointments.
If I cannot find the sliver lining, I am doomed. 12/10/22. Dear Cheryl, One of the most startling things about me is that I always have not just an idea but a calculated vision of how things should go. If things don’t go that way, it would be quite disappointing for me. For instance, if…
Life lately…
July went by so fast. 31/07/22. Dearest Cheryl, One minute it was my birthday and the next, I am three hours from the breaking of the first morning in August. July has been a ride. I had the best birthday yet, but the rest of this month has been a blur; I’ll see if I…
