  • First, listen…

    I thought I was a good listener… I suck at it. 08/07/22 Dear Cheryl, The Lord has been on a roll in my life. Something wonderful happened to me yesterday. In yesterday’s entry, I told you how the Holy Spirit called my attention to the work of the larger body of Christ and my role…

  • Look to the body…

    What would the body be, if it were only made up of eyes? Or noses? Or lips? 07/07/22 Dear Cheryl, I do not know how but it is just dawning on me that when you support the work of the people who work for God, you are also pushing the gospel in that manner and…

  • Birthday blues?

    It’s my birthday sometime this week and for some strange reason, I actually have expectations this year. 26/06/22. Dear Diary, You know, I had written 7 entries in this ‘My Diary’ before I went off track and treated this space like a regular blog. I’m thinking I want that to change, especially because I came…

  • God first, everything else next.

    Is this what it feels like to be loved by God? 02/06/22. Dear Cheryl, The best parts of my life remains all the times that God opened my eyes to not just the truths of the Word but the reason behind them. Today, I woke up with a revelation that could have only been from…

  • Leaving the world behind.

    OOf. Am I really doing this? Deep breathe, deep breathe. Ok. Today, I can actually take deep breathes without feeling any pain in my chest. It feels awesome, I had no idea how good it feels to breathe normally. Yesterday, my chest felt tight and I could not breathe. I thought I would die but…

  • Mirror, mirror 🪞

    Made in His image. In the beginning, God made man in His image (Gen 1:26), we know that. Think about it, when Adam conversed with God in the cool of the evening, He must have looked upon the face of a God no different from himself. Adam looked like God. Then sin happened and that…

  • A feast for a king, a bullet to his head.

    In sunny or stormy weather, the presence of Jesus is all you need to feast. Psalms 23:5 says: ‘Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.‘ If I had a dollar for every time I’ve recited this line… who is Dangote?…

  • An intercessor 🤍

    God is no longer the man upstairs. Israel’s method of reconciliation was truly fascinating. There was a demarcation between the Holy Place and the Most Holy Place. The High Priest could only atone for the sins of people after atoning for himself. Asides from how stressful this sounds, think of how expensive too… all those…

  • Too close

    “With long life I will satisfy him and show him my salvation.”Psalms 91:16 This past week, I encountered a fear I’d never encountered before. The fear of death. It was the strangest thing. As I processed my thoughts on why I felt the way that I did, it became apparent. Never, have I ever, gotten…

  • Oh, David, how could you?

    Nothing hurts than a friend who won’t listen; a friend who turns his back on another Friend. The David-Bathsheba story is really… intriguing. A little back story from 2 Samuel 11 is this – David, at a time of war in Israel, stays behind in his palace. His gaze happens to fall on Bathsheba who…
