A space for you and me…
In this space, I share everything that God asks me to. But think outside of the box with me–if you’re looking for think pieces head over to the Articles category. Short stories? Head to the Short Stories category. If it’s specifically about my walk with JESUS, you want to make your bed in My JESUS diary. Poems, prayers, any way you turn, you’re sure to meet the TRUTH. ✨
A prayer for softness of heart

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.

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…

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…
