A MOTHER'S HEART

I have thought about this hard and long...
A mother's heart...
What drives a mother to hope even in a hopeless situation.
what drives a mother to stay strong,confessing life even in the face of death..
I remember looking at my precious child,willing her to live
nothing mattered,nothing else was real to me other than my believe that she would live.
I laughed at doctors reports,refused negative confessions...
I believed,I hoped...A mother's Heart.

What makes a mother get on her knees,praying,hoping,believing
That a straying child would return home..
What makes a mother love even when her love is not returned
A mother's Heart
What makes a mother dream for her spouse,her children,her family
What makes a mother lose sleep,and petition heaven continuously
until change comes...
She sows seeds of love,encouragement,praise,godly counsel in the morning,
In the noon and in the night time expectantly waiting for a harvest.
A mother's heart.

Bible says women received their dead back to life(Heb 11:35)
This scripture has been my anchor these past months.
looking back to all that has happened,
I can't believe what I took on
I can't believe what drove me,the sacrifices I made
The enormous responsibilities I took on joyfully
I was willing to give up my time,career,life as it were
so my child could live..
Now I understand a Mother's Heart

God created us so uniquely..
The burdens we bear,the roads we travel
The promises we hold on to,The tears we shed amidst the smiles.
The big celebrations we make out of small wins and victories.
It is amazing that such soft,gentle and beautiful creatures
were indeed empowered to be so strong.
I am amazed at Our strength as women and mothers.
Today I celebrate myself and all godly mothers
I love myself,I say Well done Stella
for recognising who and what God has made you..
I am not perfect,still learning everyday but I recognise
That God is working in me both to will and do according to his good pleasure(Phil 2:13)

Dear Child of God
I bless God for your life..especially if you are a godly Mother...
God would not forget your labour of love..
Heaven is proud of you.

Be a blessing to a Mother..please Share.


PSALM 126:4-6 (The Message Translation)
And now, God, do it again—
 bring rains to our drought-stricken lives
So those who planted their crops in despair
will shout hurrahs at the harvest,
So those who went off with heavy hearts
 will come home laughing, with armloads of blessing.

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...

THIS TOO SHALL PASS

Oh no, it was actually real, the scene that had just flashed before me wasn't from the contagion movie. It was actually real. Somebody pinch me! News , mayhem, panic buying, fear mongering, social distancing,self-isolation unimaginable loss of lives, truncation of businesses, and untold hardship for many. I caught myself as a wave of fear washed over me, what is the meaning of all of this, what must I do, what is God saying? As I pondered, I could hear very clearly in my spirit these words: "This too shall pass "and almost immediately an unexplainable peace and confidence in a God who is bigger than my fears and still In control settled me. How are you doing child of God? Are you troubled, worried, tired,afraid or overwhelmed? Rest in the assurance of God's word and His love. Amidst all the fear and uncertainty be reminded that God is sovereign.  Amidst all the pain and the loss be assured that God is present, to comfort and to restore. ...
