TWEENTY – THREE

This post is exactly one month dew. :) I had it on written out,however I couldn't post it on my bog because of issues with my laptop.

Its amazing that it is already one year since my last birthday. It was during my internship year as a medical house officer.  I had ordered some cake to do a little something but a beautiful soul decided to add one more to it saying I cannot be giving people small small pieces of cake. (lol)
That year was a very eventful year for me personally. I like to have this thing with God where we get down to have a word or song that marks the year. I stumbled on this song by bethel music- Reckless Love. The lyrics of this song sits so well with me.
I especially like the part that says-
‘…there’s no shadow you won’t light up,
mountain you won’t climb up
 coming after me;
There’s no wall you won’t kick down, lie you won’t tear down ,
coming after me…’

It was more like my anthem song.
The year was full of a whole lot of good and gloom. It was quite a year because it was very eventful. I remember walking down the road one day and saying I’d never have imagined certain things would happen because the song felt so beautiful but my little mind could not comprehend what lied ahead.
In every of the things I encountered this year, the definition of who God is to me is DELIVERER! 

God showed up for me in several ways that the only name that best soothes right now is deliverer.
I have a thing for people. God has made me a people person and so I would rather leave you happy than sad. So most of my struggles were really personal this year. They were inner struggles and because I would hardly have a bad thought about someone, it made things even worse. So basically there were certain decisions I made that brought me in situations I wish I weren’t and that why I was really able to see God as deliverer.

People and their different shades and agendas.
The bible says that God knows the agenda of every heart. Proverbs.21:2 says that he weighs the heart. That was exactly what God did for Me.
There were shadows that were literally light up and lies that were literally turn down.
There were mountains that could only have been God pulling out.
God neither sleeps nor slumbers. He has watched over me for 23 years. He’s Abba,the only Father that neither sleeps nor slumbers.He that keepeth Israel neither sleeps nor slumbers, yes, he that keepeth Grace neither sleeps nor slumbers. And hmm,he He that keepeth you neither sleeps nor slumbers.

The other day I was reflecting on how I was privileged to serve with a group of people while in medical school. I realised it was God preparing me all the while for what He has ahead.  It just happened in medical school where I had to lead a group of people. I still wonder why I was chosen for that till today even though I knew in the centre of it all that it was God. I had no clue what it was to lead. However, the experience turns out to have sharpened my thought process and help me see and view things differently (I am still learning to see right!!). I’ve come to understand that God has His ways of placing us in scenarios where he shapes us for what he has for us in the future.

A whole lot of valleys and mountains but I’m glad that God saw me through every one of them. I can boldly say that from life’s first course till final breath, Jesus commands my destiny. One thing I picked from this year was that GOOD is not always GOD.
I’ve met a lot of amazing people, sat in a lot of amazing places, been happy and been sad, reached for amazing heights. It was during the last year that I finally launched an enterprise. I will do a blog post on what its about, God willing. This for me was a major milestone. I remember asking God to make it possible before the end of 2017, and that was exactly what happened.
And Ah, did I mention, I have a lot of things to work on in my life—lol. I hope for major headways and jaw dropping miracles this year. Amen!!!

With high hopes, I’m excited about the year ahead, because I know God has gone ahead!!!
God bless you for stopping by.

Happy birthday to me!!!

(This is a backdated post. I couldn’t access my laptop to put it up but I'm putting it up all the same!!!)

Faithfulness

Today I want to share something about faithfulness. Faithfulness,according to google,  is the concept of unfailingly remaining  loyal  to someone or something, and putting that loyalty into consistent practice regardless of extenuating circumstances. Literally, it is the state of being full of  faith  in the sense of steady devotion to a person, thing or concept. In my understanding, it is being consistently committed to a course or person regardless of what comes your way. I want to focus on the things that we have been called to do or the things that we find per time to do. Sometimes we can get so lackadaisical about stuff when no one is watching or when others are playing their part. Sometimes its really because we don’t have enough drive to do what we really want to do. Sometimes, factors beyond our control can be the cause. Sometimes its because we have not exactly decided to take up responsibility by ourselves. Sometimes we don’t have knowledge ...

GOD'S PATTERN OF HEALING// PT1

Hello everyone. I hope your week has been good? We'll be going on a journey through the book of Joel. I hope to expose certain things about God's pattern of doing things. You would have to pick up your bible to follow closely. God's ways are not the ways of man at all and the book of Joel paints that picture of how things go with God. I mean, the ways of God. I've come to discover that the ways of God remain the same from generation to generation. Though the situations may be different  but God's patterns are the same yesterday, today and forever. For this reason, the people of the land of Judah in the book of Joel were told to make known the ways of God from generation to generation. Joel 1:3 -  "Tell ye your children of it, and let your children tell their children, and their children another generation." Things had gone in disarray on the land and it's a reflection somehow of how things happen in our individual lives. A time came in Judah when...

My Beloved

If you would let me walk through the corners of your heart   I will take the thorns away with anesthesia enough to take you through I will shine my light in the path for your eyes to see and your feet to walk I will wrap you round in the warmth of my embrace From the cold that gives you frost bite in the feet and a chest pain even on a warm day I know you let some love in the left you broken And now it’s difficult to catch the pieces that remain because your strength is gone I see it all in your eyes, Even though you try to make it seem like you have it all together You have been bought with a prize I took all the brakes in my heart to see you whole I got striped and left in the cold so you could find warmth in me (would be hid in me and stay warm) I’m not about to let you go through all that trauma (again). I did it already, for you, for all So that when you pass through the rivers, you will have me around When you pass though waters, it ...
