  • Fasting Day 05 – Satisfaction.

    Fasting Day 05 – Satisfaction.

    “When I awake, I will see you face to face and be satisfied.”Psalms 17:15 Waking up to a day that God has set up for me is the first thing that makes me happy every morning when I get up. Getting to spend time with Him is something I will never get over. Today has…

    Fasting Day 04 – Be mindful.

    Each day is often best enjoyed slow. I like today. I really like today. I remember hating Thursdays because in secondary school, it meant double Maths period in the morning. Favour is a big girl now. Hehe. I’m practicing mindfulness, a concept I picked up from a YouVersion plan about Turning off the noise around…

  • Fasting Day 03 – Wrong move.

    Fasting Day 03 – Wrong move.

    For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time  are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18 You see this Bible verse up here 👆, that’s what I’m using to hold body throughout today. I made a teeny-weeny mistake yesterday when I broke my fast by eating a…

  • Fasting Day 02 – I can do this 😉

    Fasting Day 02 – I can do this 😉

    ‘Can’t steal my… energy, energy, energy!’ The first thing I hear when I wake up is the rumble of my stomach. What sorcery. I take a minute to laugh at the devil because it cannot be me. I feel a lot more energized this morning though; after my prayers I have my bath and start…

    Fasting Day 01 – Let’s go!

    I bring you good tidings from the Most High. It’s Day 02 of the fast as I write this. Today, I told myself that no matter what happened I would publish a post here. For you. I must. So I wrote on a piece of paper as I made a work call that by 7…

  • God’s grace boggles my mind…

    God’s grace boggles my mind…

    Grace is a beginning. I will not say ‘new’ because I have never heard of old beginnings. Entry #0000007 Grace is God’s gift and like all gifts, all you have to do is receive it.Grace is undeserving. It’s Jacob begging Esau to forgive him even when he deserved justice.It’s mercy when we deserve punishment. Accepting…

    How I’m feeling…

    I woke up on the right side of the right side of my bed. Entry #0000006 For a long time, I’ve reached out for contentment but my fingers are only long enough to touch it, not hold it. When I woke up today, it was firmly nestled in my palms. I let out the song…

    Today, my mother told me I behave like a snake

    Current mood = tired. Entry #0000005 Huh? Snake? I was bothered, mainly because I do not take lightly any comparison to the evil one. Lol. Nigerian parents are just dramatic please.But she clarified. My moods have been terrible these past few days; one day I am superhyper and the next minute, my face wears a…

  • Can I be flogged for the Name?

    Can I be flogged for the Name?

    Somehow, I cannot wrap my head around it. Entry #0000004 Today as I studied Acts, I came upon the part where the apostles rejoiced that they were flogged and counted worthy to be treated shamefully on behalf of the Name (Acts 5:40-41). I paused. Flogging? Flog me? I have read about persecution in the Bible…

  • I’m a bit worried…

    I’m a bit worried…

    Today I saw a post on social media that did not sit well with my spirit. Entry #0000003 Mostly because something did not seem right about it. It was a picture that looked something like a parody of a painting done by a renaissance artist. The text above it shouted, ‘This is Job. Job’s friends…
