Day thirty-seven: It is inside of you

Today, I was privileged to hear one of my bosses share a story of how she managed to rescue herself from a bathroom she had mistakenly locked herself in.

She made a statement that caught my attention, "If anyone had ever told me I could jump this wall, I would never have believed". 
But in time, she actually did climb that wall😂.

Isn't it true what they say, "Necessity is the mother of invention". 

Scripture tells us that we can do all things through Christ. I am learning that once I am willing to do something, I can actually do it. By my strength, I will not prevail but by Holy Spirit, hahaaaa... I can move mountains. Hallelujah!!!

There was a time when I thought that I could only achieve certain feats when I had some particular people in my life. But, Holy Spirit is teaching, through separation and other means that I can do all things because of Him and not because of another.

My love, don't get me wrong. 
We need people to reach far in life... God-ordained people, I mean, but there is a place for that and there is a place for learning to do things on your own with only the Spirit of Jesus Christ with you.

It is a tough place to find yourself but trust me when I tell you that it is a blessing... A true Gift of God. 
...when Holy Spirit teaches you how to slay, Himself 😄.

This week, I have achieved feats which I never thought I could.
I have gained certain perspectives I never thought I would.
I have encountered people I never thought I could.
I have grown in certain areas where I never thought I could do alone.

Hahaha...God Is Glorious.

Child of God, what makes you think you can't?
What makes you think that Greatness is not inside of you?

You have Holy Spirit in you.
You have Jesus residing on the inside of you.
Hahaaa. Hallelujah!

There is nothing like persecution that does not birth greatness.
You are more than a conqueror. 

I pray for you and I pray for me that we may find ourselves in many many 'uncomfortable' situations which will birth in us, growth upon growth, spiritual blessing upon spiritual blessing, Grace upon Grace, and Favour upon Favour..

Hallelujah!!!

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

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

Go With God

When I started Sharing Life, my intention was to put out what I knew Holy Spirit was teaching me. This was what He asked me to do. It wasn't to parade myself as an all-figured-out girl who was on her way to becoming a preacher.  It was a journey of life I was learning and one which I had received the go-ahead to let the world in on.  Somewhere on this road, I was seen as a "Woman of God" and put on this high and mighty pedestal which wasn't me.  And you know what, in such moments, it is so easy to get carried away by the accolades of men to the point where you lose sight of your journey, where you are and decide to serve the expectations of others... thereby neglecting your own journey and growth.  After taking a very long break from active writing, I have on numerous occasions attempted to start writing again but the fear of being put on that pedestal has stopped me so many times.  I am a child of God. I am a girl on a journey. I don't have it all fig
