Dear Future Husband

Dear future husband…
If you see me typing using Times New Roman font instead of MV Boli, then you should know that I really mean business…lol

Baby, I will not deny the fact that you have been missed!
But at the same time, I am very very very glad that you are not here… yet.

Do not get me wrong baby

But the truth is, your absence has helped me greatly in my relationship with Daddy.
By your absence, I have learnt the most valuable thing in life… a relationship with the Only One Who really cares about me and can keep my heart safe.

There have been many many many times that I have sought a shoulder to cry on…many times.
There are those little secrets that no one knows about me that I have wanted to tell someone…
There have been those times when I have needed someone to laugh about something with…
There have been those days when I just needed someone around…
There have been those days…

…had you been here, that person would definitely have been you…
Good as it may seem, it is not entirely good.
Why?
Because you are human…and you may not be able to bear the weight of some of my tears…

But thank you so much baby,
Why?

Because, your absence brought me closer and closer to Daddy.
He blessed me with the gift of His Holy Spirit.
He blessed me with the best Confidante I could ever wish for.
He blessed me with the Only One Who can really protect my heart…Himself.
I am safe because I know He IS the Only Constant in my life; He will never leave me and He will never forsake me…for anything.

Baby, do not get me wrong.
It is not that I do not want you to come… (you will come when Daddy deems it time)
But, I want you to note this baby, that as long as I live, He will forever be my priority.
You will have my heart…only because He has it first and He, will give it to you.

Thank you for this foundation which will never...ever be taken away from me ❤

An Invitation to Intimacy

  I gave my life to Jesus in St. Louis Senior High School.  I am very sure I had gone forward for altar calls many times before that. But St. Louis was different. I was conscious; I was aware of myself and my environment. I knew I needed God in my life. To be honest, the issues of life drove me to take God seriously. A friend had had a dream about her and me and the moment she shared it, I knew I had to let go of the old garment and take on the new. So, I joined the Catholic Charismatic Renewal (CCR) meetings and that was where my life changed.  That encounter led me to a great relationship with the Lord. I read the Scriptures (my favourite was the Book of Psalms because I used that to pray a lot). It was in St. Louis I learnt I was never alone (why do you think I support Liverpool FC so much?). I learnt to rely on Him alone.  When I entered the University, I realized a newfound freedom and observed (by the Grace of God) that if I didn’t take my spirituality seriousl...

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...

30 things I love about you: pt. 7-9

Happy Monday, baby!  Can’t believe we are a week away. I am nervous… in a good day. I pray you have a great day on that day.  7. I love the way you pray for me  Baaaabe! Thank you for always praying for me. I get to see your heart every time you pray for me. On the hardest days, you are there to cover me in prayer. On the happy days, you are there to thank ABBA with me. Thank you. I love it when you pray. Bruh! You pray so well, by ABBA’s Grace. I love you. Thank you.  8. I love how you seek opportunities to correct my childhood traumas.  I remember that one time I shared the story of how we used to manage food in my home as a child. I told you about how our stew was always little with a lot of rice or yam or whatever. I remember how on that day I shared this with you, we were having lunch at your parents’. I recall how you went to the kitchen and fetched so much stew for me. It meant a lot and on so many occasions, I have seen you seek opportunities to correct ...
