Times Change... for real.

Today, I am working late.

Honestly, this is not how I anticipated my day to go.
At the same time, I am not surprised because I have realized that on the days I purpose in my heart to close early, those are the days "something comes up".

Anyway, it is all good. Like I keep saying, we prayed for this and so we will not complain. 

I was looking at my laptop's wallpaper and that got me in the right wavelength for today's Sharing Life moment. 

My wallpaper is a picture of my nephew (Chairman E) and me. It is a picture that was taken when I went for a tv interview for last year's Women In Worship concert. That day, I wasn't happy at the fact that I had to send my nephew to the TV station. But he was my responsibility in that season and so I didn't have a choice. 

I just remembered how in that season of not being employed, I would pray and wonder when this door of employment would open. 

Now, here I am, so employed to the point where sometimes, I pull late-nights just to get stuff done. 

Today, I just want to say to whoever is praying for that next chapter, next phase, next open door that, it comes. The times change and the seasons shift. 
When I celebrated my birthday 2weeks ago, I marveled at the pics I took. Just a year ago, my hair was unkempt, I wasn't employed and I didn't have any serious birthday plans. Now exactly a year later, the story was completely different. 

I just want to let you know that things don't stay the same forever, especially for those of us who are in Christ. Our end is His Glory and regardless the turbulence, uncertainty or concerns which may exist now, rest assured knowing that they won't last forever. 

And trust me, the change happens so fast. 

So rather than sitting idle, asking yourself and God, "When?", get ready. Build yourself. Prepare. Because when it is time, it is time. 

Like my Father in the Lord shared, better to be prepared and have no opportunity than to have the opportunity and not be prepared. 

God bless you, beloved, and I am looking forward to your testimony💃. 


Resting in His abiding love, 
Mary Magdalene. 

PS: Hey! thanks for the prayers, love and well-wishes on my birthday! God bless 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

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

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
