  • Leaving the world behind.

    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 🪞

    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.

    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 🤍

    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…

  • Oh, David, how could you?

    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…

  • Let God in.

    Let God in.

    God is so misunderstood but is anyone really trying to understand? I’ve heard people accuse God over and over again of being a dictator and a patronizer of evil. That if he’s so powerful; why are bad things happening in the world? Sigh. It appears this question will never get old. It is a question…

  • World people.

    World people.

    I’ll need to drink anointing oil after I leave this place. I am at a friend’s get together for his birthday and it is far from a Christian hangout. In fact, world people are the ones here. The last time I was in a gathering like this, I cannot remember. I feel the usual response…

  • Dream big.

    Dream big.

    Some days you get up and go. Other days you get up and sit. This month started with much fervour. Much. Confirmations. Ideas. Wisdom. Fire. [tweet] –If God has said it, why do I feel so tired?– [/tweet] I have only begun to do the things God has placed in my hands. To grow them.…

  • All my struggles of working from home.

    All my struggles of working from home.

    Ogonna, please boil rice before your sister comes back from school. These are the kinds of messages I get when I am trying to focus on work like ‘mummy can you not?’ I get up and do it anyways, unless I want my ears to fall off from talks of how I will disgrace myself…

  • It’s my birthday!

    It’s my birthday!

    It’s my birthday today. 28/02/2022. Now that I think about it, I really found Love in the love month.On this day, last year, Yeshua carried me out of the Pit: I was weak and helpless.Now all I do is what He wants. It’s been beyond beautiful since then. He keeps giving me: the bond of…
