30 things I love about you: pt. 4-6

Hiii! It’s me again. Now to the next set of things I love about you:

4. I love how you push me to not allow people rush me.

I remember that one time in Papaye Osu when I had not yet made up my mind as to what meal I wanted. The lady at the counter was calling me to place my order because I was the next in line to be attended to. I was in such a rush to order just anything because I felt I was delaying the lady. Just when I was about to say just anything, you held me and asked why I felt compelled to place the order. I told you it was because the lady was slightly getting impatient. You pulled me to the side and said to the lady that we weren’t ready to order and so she should go ahead to serve those after us. You admonished me not to allow people rush me into things when I know I am not ready. Since that time, I often have that moment in mind when I feel like people are trying to rush me with their timelines.

5. I love the way you see me.

I love the way you see me. I love the fact that you don’t only see me in the now but in the future as well. One of the things I love about you is your deep sense of awareness of who I am. Sem, believe me when I say that most of the men who came into my life were mostly concerned about the value I brought into their lives. They wanted me in their life because of what my presence in their lives would do for them in business, life, career, ministry, etc. No one ever said to me, “I see who you are and who you are destined to be, and I am committed to partnering with the Lord to bring it to pass.” No one. Thank you for exemplifying this, babe.

6. I love your friendship.

I love the fact that I knew you as a friend first. I truly appreciate those moments when I have said to you, “I need my friend” and you have put your “friend cap” on for me. I appreciate the fact that I can talk to you about everything and anything. Yes, I want you to be pleased with me but there is no reason to hide anything or to put up a front when it comes to you. Thank you for being my friend.

I pray ABBA’s continued blessings over you, babe. 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...

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 twelve: My Shepherd

I was reading the book, "In Him" by Kenneth E. Hagin and in the book, he wrote: The Lord Is my Shepherd. I do not want. I do not want for ability. I do not want to strength. I do not want for money. I do not want for anything. The Lord is my Shepherd. These words by this man ministered life to me and it got me thinking: So often, we find ourselves reading Psalm 23 and it is easy for us to just look at those words exactly as they are in the Bible without translating them into our present circumstances and the seasons in which we find ourselves. The angle provided by Kenneth Hagin has shed light on who Jesus really is as my Shepherd. He is not the kind of Shepherd who wants to be irrelevant in the affairs of His sheep. He very much wants to be a part of it. Consequently, as a Shepherd who sees to it that His sheep lack no good thing, He remains committed to ensuring that all our needs and lack are provided for. It says, there is nothing I shall want . W...
