Hi, hi.
So I’ve been doing a little study on the book of 1Corinthians and I thought to share some intriguing lessons.
Apostle Paul here was addressing several questions from the Corinthian church. I like how he differentiated what his spirit, which of course was mature,and what the Spirit of God said.

He said to the unmarried and widows to remain single, however, he acknowledges that its infact a gift to be able to do that. He then advised that its better to get married than to burn with passion.(1Cor.7:7-9)

Apostle Paul clearly states as by the Lord that a wife should not put away her husband, and even if she will, she should stay single. I’m guessing that it was more of a record that women were the ones that left their husbands for one reason or the other.
This is a pointer for we as Christians to make a constant effort to develop ourselves in key areas of our lives. And been intentional about making the necessary adjustments for a healthy life/family.
There’s an obvious high rate of divorce in the society today. Personally,i believe it's largely due to individual lapses in growing or developing ourselves.
I hope that if you are a guy and you are reading this, you will make a strong and courageous effort to build yourself strong enough to also be able to build (your wife and family) the lady God brings your way and the kids you’ll have. I hope that you will not leave your growth to chance and time. I hope that you will take your life and decisions very seriously and know that you are a pillar and to be strong you need to ‘feed’ your mind with the right things.

To every lady reading this, I hope that you will also build yourself. And acknowledge that you are a vital part of the society. I hope you build yourself in every area and be able to stand at per as a pillar formed after the palace and be a supporting pillar in your home, society and world at large when the time is ripe.
It's centrally being the best version of who we are made to be.

From my heart to yours,

Grace

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 ...

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 ...

Doors Do Open

Have you ever felt like you have exhausted all of your options and you can’t seem to find a way out?  Or you know that there is more that can be out of a case you are on? I can’t imagine what the widow whose husband left some debts for her to pay before he died must have gone through. Wait, you think all that happened is all there is. In the sense, you have pressed all your buttons and made all your moves. Knocked all the doors you know and made the calls. You now think its over. You think there’s no way out again? Be there! You seem to have forgotten so quick that God is the one that makes things happen. Look at the widow whose husband left her in debt. She was broke. No money no possession my sons up for sale kindof broke. Her two sons were going to be taken captive to pay for the debts that was on ground. Of course she was devastated. She had no possession to sell to get some money. The only thing she knew to do was to go meet Elisha who her husband served with. ...
