BEFORE YOU SAY YES

Hello,

I know it has been a while.

I have missed sharing life with you.

In these few days of absence, ideas for us to ponder on have not stopped flooding my mind.

BEFORE YOU SAY YES...

I know a lot of us have purposed in our hearts to surrender our youth and time to God's will and to allow him to mold us into who He has destined us to be.

Sometimes, it gets tough.

We want to wait on God's very best for us in all things and especially in the area of our heart.

Nonetheless, our personal goals do not necessarily influence the pressures of this world in the least.

I want to encourage you as I am being encouraged by the Holy Spirit:

Would you abruptly halt the formation process Our Father is working out in your life for that one person who keeps pushing you to say a yes?

Think about it.
You may say no, but your actions may have already said a big YES!

God is Faithful.

I won't stop saying it.

This decision you have made will sometimes feel like a very wrong one...thank God that they are just feelings that are fleeting.

We must not stop fighting this flesh which always tends to throw us in the direction of satisfying its whims. Like Apostle Paul, we must bring our flesh under subjection.

My dear, no matter what happens, don't settle till you are 100% confident that this person you are looking at, is the right one.

Let me tell you this, as a godly man or woman, your very nature attracts people of your godly kind, towards you.

Never be surprised when people you think are way out of your league start showing interest in you because you are godly.

Now hear this, it is ONLY GOD who can show you which of these godly men or women is your best fit.

ONLY GOD...

Before you say yes to the first godly man that comes your way, allow God to confirm to you whether he is your life mate or someone exhibiting some characteristics of the original masterpiece God has prepared just for you.

Before you tell yourself yes, I am going to propose to this lady or ask her out on a date,
ask yourself, " Is my true reason for asking her out because I want to quiet down the pressure from family and friends or is it because I genuinely see our complementarity as God's very own orchestration?"

My final words to you is,

NEVER SETTLE UNTIL YOU ARE ASSURED THAT THIS PERSON IS GOD'S BEST FOR YOU -  EVEN IF IT TAKES TIME, HE/SHE  WOULD BE WORTH THE WAIT.

Trust God!

It's still #SHARINGLIFE.

Don't stop sharing!

Remain blessed dear one.

Day eleven: The Authentic Hgh

This morning, I was pondering over a video Tabitha Brown posted on instagram  a few days ago ( link here ). In her video, she was talking about how people were always sending her Dms to tone down on how much she speaks of Jesus in all her work. She said a lot of meaningful things which you will find in the link I have attached.  My Quiet Time last week Friday was sourced from Timothy 4:8 which reads " For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things,  holding promise for both the present life  and the life to come. " It was a super "Aha" moment for me because I found a scripture from the Bible which assures me that I will profit a great deal from my resolve, to live for God, both in the now life and in the life which is to come. How cool is that?!  Now that the premise for today's post has been laid, let me tell you what the authentic high is all about. This is going to get personal... it is the only way I can properly relay the mes

Day One: One Good Turn Deserves Another

It feels so good to come back to writing,  especially for this series! The 40-day reflections have been the most intensive seasons of my writing life. It is beautiful to observe how in the beginning, the writings seem rusty and then as they days go by, they begin to flow freely.  After such a long break, I wouldn’t be surprised if this becomes the experience but hey, miracles happen every day! Praise the Lord! Today, I am sharing on kindness: There is this saying, “ One Good Turn Deserves Another ”, which in simple terms means:  if someone does you a favour, you should take the chance to repay it . If you live by this proverb, you may do good to others with the expectation that when it is your turn to be shown such kindness, it is reciprocated in an equal or greater measure.  I’m not sure that’s entirely a good posture for us as believers. I’m reminded of the piece of Scripture in which Jesus asks us to particularly do good to those we know will be unable to repay us

February 17th - ...but We used to be friends....

Have you ever felt tears well up in your chest so hard and heavy that you know you could easily burst into heaves of tears in any given moment? I had one of such moments today.  The first reading at Mass today was from the Book of Jeremiah 17:5-8 and there is a portion that talks about how accursed is the man who puts his trust in man and in his own strength. It talks about the dryness such a man encounters and how this man will never see prosperity.  I was convicted by this Scripture because it showed so clearly that the condition of my heart has been like one of such a man. Why am I saying so? Aside getting my second degree, I am trying to be intentional about my Spiritual growth and about music ministry in church. Basically, I am trying to be intentional about becoming.  ("Becoming" is the expression I give to my quest to attain my fullest expression as His daughter).  ...but that has just been the problem... "I am trying to become"  Having th
