Day twenty-two: first Love

Let's face it: we all come to that point in our lives when we want someone's attention.
We consciously or unconsciously look out for someone to show us some care or to be there for us.
We are social beings and this is not bad.

 But, such desires only get out of hand when we always look to mortal men to be that kind of support-system that we need.

Instead of seeking the attention of men, i would like for us to know that we have always had the attention of The Trinity; Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
God has always had our attention... even before we were conceived.

 We read in the Book of Jeremiah, Daddy's words to the Prophet Jeremiah which shows us that Daddy always has us in mind: 5 “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you as a prophet to the nations.” 
We are always in God's mind.
Daddy has written our names in the palm of His hands.
Our walls are always before Him.

I chose the image below because I believe it best conveys the message I want to put across. 

Many times, we easily focus on the men and women in our lives who pay attention to us and are always there for us when we need them. 
These people show us love and give us a sense of belonging. We feel wanted. We feel loved. 
Then, we lose sight of the fact that these are mere mortals whose constant presence in our lives are not assured. 

The lady in the picture below meets the above description. Notice how excited she is about the photographer whose attention she has. Her eyes are so fixed on this man to the point where she fails to see the other person who took this beautiful shot.

This is how for some people, their relationship with God Is.
They are so focused on the people around them that they don't see The One Whose attention they've always had even before they were conceived.
God has always been looking out for us.
He loves the creation He made.
He loves the work of His hands. Awww! Isn't He Wonderful?!!!

God made us.
Daddy formed us in love.
We have always had His full attention.
His heart concerning us has always been pure and sincere.

I really pray for you and me that we may desire to seek Our Father.
I pray that we will desire to know Him intimately for ourselves. 
I earnestly pray that we will seek The One Whose attention we have always had... God Almighty, through Jesus Christ and by the help of Holy Spirit. 

Tomorrow is a blessed day.
I believe God that you will do well tomorrow.

Remain blessed darling.


I love you but Daddy loves you most. He has always loved you baby. 

With love,
From Sharing Life.

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...

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...

My journey with Holy Spirit

This might probably be the longest I will ever publish. Here we go... Senior High School I started my relationship with Holy Spirit in St. Louis Senior High School. At that time, my father was going through a bit of a struggle and I didn't want to be a burden to him. I had made a terrible decision to combine my chopbox with a friend's and when my provisions finished, I couldn't call home. I was sad and I remembered that daddy had told me that if I ever wanted to change and be a better human, I should start by reading the "Book of Proverbs".  I came across Wisdom and I prayed for that Friendship and then someway somehow, I believed that I was never alone and that I had a Friend with me and that was when I starting fellowshiping with Holy Spirit.     Prior to this, I remember when I was in class 6, I heard Someone share His heart with me. He asked me, " Why is it that when people have problems, they tell their friends about it and then their fr...
