little beginnings...This Woman Of Faith Is 1year Old

This Woman of Faith is 1 year old..
I give God praise for this beautiful vision.
A vision birthed through my pain..
God is indeed an amazing God.

I remember how it all started
I was in a really low place..
It was Sept,2012
I had just received the diagnosis of my Daughter's condition
I was discouraged,scared and I felt so alone..
I remember praying and crying my eyes out one day
and I asked God to help me through it all
and I kept saying,the devil is not going to rejoice over me
but through all this lord,let me bring you glory.

I didn't know what lay ahead but what I knew was that..I wanted
to bring Glory to God.I wanted to praise through my tears and walk in Faith
rather than Fear...I wanted to overcome this battle,I wanted to put the devil to shame.

So God laid it in my heart to write about my struggles and my victories.

"Write"...I thought to myself..how do I start,what do I write about..
I never saw myself in that light..
I never imagined that I could write..
I thought I must have heard wrongly.....me write,no.
So I waved it off...but the burden remained

In March,2013 I sat in front of my laptop
the burden was just so strong and I said OK lord...
I think it is time..use me
and God endued me with grace and inspiration and I haven't stopped since
From the confines of my bedroom God has used this woman of faith
to encourage,inspire and uplift lives and I owe it all to God.
God said to me Share your struggles not for pity,because when you get pity you undermine your prosperity,but rather share it as a Testimony.
He said to me,write and as you do not only would you minister and encourage yourself
but you would do same to others.

And As I go through every post written on this blog I can say of a truth..
It was God speaking and writing through my frail hands..
God used this blog to encourage and strengthen my faith in Him
Isn't it amazing..How God chooses to use us to show forth his glory...
All He wants is a willing and available vessel.

I thank God that I obeyed
1 month after I started writing Little Tamara went to be with the lord
I wonder what would have happened to this vision If I had delayed any longer..
So many great visions have remained dreams,just because of procrastination,doubt and unbelief..
I thank God for the grace and the courage to bare my pain and struggles for the world to see..
I thank God for using an ordinary woman like me.

I never believed I could..but He believed in me and equipped me
I am so honoured that He would use this woman of faith to be a blessing to many lives
I know God has only just begun.

I want to say thank you to everyone who has been part of this so far
for encouraging me publicly and privately
For reading,commenting,sharing
And most importantly for praying for me and my family
May God indeed bless you and help you fulfil your God given purpose.

For as many of you that God has laid visions in your heart
I encourage you today...take a leap of faith
If God has given the vision He would make the provision
and He would sustain It..
The real reason for your existence is to make a difference
to solve a problem,to be an answer..
To be a blessing..
Start now,Start small..and God would honour your faith.


 I look forward to what God is set to do on this blog
great testimonies,great upliftments.
I Say a big Thank you to all my readers..
I Would like to hear from you..
Especially on which blog post inspired you the most
and how God has used this blog to enrich you lives.

I love you
Stella Agwor

This Woman Of Faith.

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. ...
