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.

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 f...

Daughter of the King by Jamie Grace ft. Morgan Harper Nichols

[Verse 1: Jamie Grace] They tell me I'm too young Tell me I'm not beautiful I'm not good enough I'm not worth anything at all They tell me I dream too much I got my head in the clouds Maybe I'm just hoping For something better than what I see now A world where every girl knows [Chorus 1: Jamie Grace] The Maker of skies, the Maker of seas The Maker of every beautiful thing He made you, He made you too The mountain high, the river wide He tells the sun when to set and rise And He made you, He made you too You're a daughter of the King So tell me, what does that make you? [Verse 2: Morgan Harper Nichols] So put your shoulders back Don't you know that you're beautiful You don't gotta tell 'em that, no Just walk around like you know And if you see our sister (if you see our sister) Looking like she forgot Like her dreams got crushed You better remind her [Chorus 1: Morgan Harper Nichols] The Maker of skies, the Maker o...

Day six: The perfect start

Waking up to pray has been extremely hard to do in the past few days. For some time now, I wake up in the mornings feeling more tired than I went to bed. And so although my eyes are open, it is a real struggle getting out of the bed. Initially, this morning, I was feeling bad about it. After a few minutes, I resolved to pray from my bed. I did that… and ended up sleeping at a point . It was better than nothing. That moment taught me that the perfect start is the one that happens from exactly where you are. There is a reason why God wants this relationship with us: aside from the fact that it is a love thing, God also knows that we truly and sincerely cannot make it in this life without Him. He Is not looking for a perfect daughter neither is He searching for a perfect son. He Is perfect and His perfection is enough for all of us. I remember those times when I would tell my spiritual father I was struggling to pray. He would say to me: Why don’t you ask the Lord to help you? Why d...
