The Life of We: learning the language of 'we'

Well well well...

It has been a while, hasn't it?

Permit me to share something I am learning with you today...


THE LANGUAGE OF 'WE'

I first believed that I was never alone when I was in senior high school. I think I was in my second year then (I will write a post on that journey soon).

No matter where I have been, by God's Grace, I have always known that there Is Someone Who has always been close by. Yes, I do not see Him but I know that He Is always with me. 
Some years back, His voice was wasn't so evident in my decisions (although He was speaking) but His Mighty Hand upheld me in all things and truly, HE KEPT ME. Praise God !!!

He IS the main the reason why I have stayed committed to my current football club even when they haven't done so well in the past. By the way, let me quickly declare that we are winning the UCL (Can I get an 'Amen') 😁

Before these past few days, I knew that He equips me to will and to do.
But recently, I am learning that He wants to do things with me. It is one thing to have the mindset of He equipping me to do, and it is another thing believing that We Are A Team conquering together.

So, I find myself in a place where I am learning what it means to have the "WE" attitude. More or less like I am Partnered for life with Him. 
So, what am I saying? "I HAVE BEEN GRABBED BY HOLY SPIRIT" and I know am learning what it means to do things in the "WE". Trust me, I keep making blunders because I don't know fully well what it means to be Partnered in such a manner. I am learning...and it is a beautiful thing. 

I do know that He Will teach me what it means to be Partnered with Him. Because now, although I received Wholeness from Him, I cannot really do anything if We don't do it together. 
I do know that I am looking forward to greater depths of tangibility and a greater level of learning and vulnerability. 
Well for one, I know I cannot eat without Him and fully concentrate on my work. 

Can I share a testimony with you?

Usually, If I take anything but coffee in the mornings at work, I will feel so sleepy, you would do nothing but laugh at me when you see me at my desk.
Yesterday on my way to work, Holy Spirit prompted me to buy porridge for breakfast (That was the second time I had bought porridge since I began my national service). So, when I got to the office, I prayed and I told Him to join me for breakfast and that what We were eating should equip Us to work efficiently. Beloved, not once after I had eaten the meal would I say I felt sleepy or tired or anything. Praise the Lord !!!
At lunch time, because I have a late-lunch due to my other engagements after work, I wanted to munch on something while I wait to eat (lunch/supper). I got fried yams and I wanted to eat them as a snack. The moment the yams came, I dived in and I ate them all...not inviting Him. I forgot. (I'm still learning 😰)My dear!!! I dozed off like nobody's business! I struggled, chale! It was then that He brought to my attention what I had done by not involving and boy did I learn my lesson! Mehnn...I didn't make that mistake for my lunch/supper. The results were beyond imagination... I did not have any desire to sleep or even doze off! And when I got to my night engagement, I noticed that considering the past weeks, last night was the only time I had been very present during the session. Wooow! All Glory to Jesus. And, the testimony continues even till today. Praise the Lord!!!

So what am I saying?

I am learning what it means to do things with my Partner. I can see that indeed, He Is really holding me down...and it is a beautiful thing, chale. 

All Glory to Jesus !!!

I pray for you today, that you will believe that He Is and that He longs for relationship with you.

I love you.

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
