EASTER OF 1998

I remember the Easter of 1998
my fist vacation without my parents..
brings so many fond memories.

 That Easter Vacation Changed my life 
It was for me the beginning of my journey
My faith journey... 

 That Vacation was orchestrated divinely
I had a date with destiny 
as in the simplest of ways
I accepted Jesus as my Lord and saviour 

  I remember my cousin Victoria gave me a novel to read(a teenage christian novel) 
and when I finished it and narrated the story to her 
she asked in line with the message of the book 
if I wanted to make Jesus my lord and saviour..
Yes I replied..and she led me in a very simple prayer..
and that was it...I went back home a changed 12 year old 
and God has had his hands on me since then..

 O there were many a times I strayed..
forgot who I was and who I was meant to be 
but God's hands never left me.
I have been forgiven much that's why I love much.

 looking back...I wonder how my life would have turned out
If my cousin didn't cease the moment
and minister to me that Easter..

 You see I lost my mum 2 years after that 
just before another Easter....
Maybe my heart would have been so hardened
Maybe I would have turned against the lord
Maybe the hurt would have made me sink deep in sin 
so many maybe's
 But God saw ahead..and used my cousin Victoria 
to win my soul before the devil had any chance to.

I was privilleged to spend yet another Easter with my cousin Victoria and my heart was filled with gratitude
 a midst the unspoken words.
 Heavens records show...Victoria Led this woman of faith to Christ..

He that wins a soul is wise..Provs 11:30
lord may I understand the importance of the great commission
to lead souls to you..To be a light in darkness..To be a Victoria
to someone out there..to cease every opportunity I have to witness for Jesus.IN JESUS NAME. AMEN

 Children of God...lets go a fishing



If you were to die today and you are not sure if you would make heaven..Heaven and Hell is real..make a decision now before it is too late..
say this with me..Lord Jesus I need you...I recognize that I can't save myself but I know you can save me..forgive me of my sins..Be my lord and saviour..Take over my life and use me for your glory.In Jesus Mighty Name.Amen.

 Congratulations....Your Journey Of faith begins Now..
let us know if you prayed this prayer..
You would never Walk ALONE.

Who is your father?

Who is your father? I remember the first time I travelled to my village without my parents I must have been in primary school and my dearest grandmother of blessed memory insisted my parents brought me over for the weekend. Village life really and truly intrigued me, I loved the simplicity of communal living and how content everyone seemed, food was eaten fresh from the farms, with the large itigidi river providing fresh fish and water, and in the evenings, a dozen children would gather in my granny’s living room to watch a DVD, what was there not to like, for a child living in the city and raised overseas, village life was exciting, refreshing and alluring. That was the first of many visits, the older i got,  my grandmother became the most influential woman in my life, especially as I had lost my mother at age 14. She was wise, inspiring and I picked up my literary prowess from her as she and my mum piqued my interest in books. She would make me write letters to her and...

Are you taking notes?

  Are you taking notes? I am so excited, something is brewing…but I cannot aptly describe it; I know without a shadow of a doubt that something is about to happen. I am so pumped about my future and what God is doing and as I look ahead, I cannot help but reminisce for we cannot truly appreciate how far we have come until we look back. Today I had a flashback to a season of my life where I was overlooked, underrated, and written off. I was that girl with nothing going on for her, I could walk into a room and not be noticed, not because I wasn’t beautiful, attractive or good looking but because when people looked at me in that season, all they could see was what had happened to me. What had happened to me? I had failed and repeated a year in university, I was the assistant class rep that year and I had to be replaced. Oh!  the disgrace and shame I felt, every bit of confidence I had in myself was knocked down. I still remember the silence and hushed tones when s...

THE GRATING

I looked at my husband, this sweet, sweet man that God had blessed me with, and the tears flowed freely; “I am tired, I am tired “I muttered repeatedly as my sobs progressed to deep groans. When would this end, I am so tired! It had been such a difficult season, a season that seemed unending. The week before I had lost a wallet with some valuables and I could barely get home and this week I had parked my car and my plate numbers were stolen. It felt like the enemy had employed all his cohorts and the mission was to “STEAL OUR JOY” and deflate our spirit at all cost. It was a hard season; I was physically and mentally tired. God had probably gone on vacation, couldn’t he see what we were going through? like God how far, how much longer was this going to go on for and how much more could we bear?   I was so sure that God had not forsaken us, I was confident that there was a reason for all these, so I held on to my conviction that God was indeed a good God but I must confe...
