Rhema's Envisage

Our design as humans by our Creator makes us living beings who cannot exist on our own. As a result of our fall from grace, we lost our fellowship and companion with our Creator, the only thing that made our essence and gave us completeness Throughout our history from our fall till now, it has been the one pursuit of man to find something to replace that emptiness we always feel virtually from childhood to adulthood Our pursuit to achieve fulfillment has resulted in us daily pursuing things that only give us more emptiness. Dear reader, if you have noticed, nothing really satisfies you. No matter how desirous you may be to receive something, it takes a few moments for all that desire to dissipate giving way for a desire for something else or even more Sometimes, we feel that if we got something, we wouldn’t need anything again in life but sadly, upon getting those things we crave for more. No amount of money will satisfy because you would want more No number of friends can sa...

Many times the troubles of this world and the perilous times we face make us as humans to forget that there is a Creator of this universe who deserves our respect and reverence Just like the waves of the sea which neither cease nor stop whether in the dry or wet season, so are our challenges that we face every day. Every day presents different struggles, prospects of new beginnings, mountains to climb, valleys to cross, crossroads to choose and mazes to navigate through We endure these hardships for so long a time that we give up hope of ever finding a solution or finding a dependable help in time of need. The systems of this world have also not been kind as everyone’s mind is tuned to solving their own problems to the neglect of the one who doesn’t have any helper Along the path of life, many are forced to give up due to no fault of theirs but that the hardships, the pains are too much to bare and there is seemingly no one to help them. They feel no one loves them enough or care...

Sooner or later the male foal turns into a jack and finally into a fully grown ass same as the female cub who grows into a sow and no sooner a fully grown mama bear. Even so, the child, who grows to become an adult Our desire to stay young doesn’t mean our desires will come to pass. The rivers we crossed and the mountains we are climbing will not be the same forever because one day, our strength may fail us No matter how dark the night is, definitely, the darkness will give way to light at dawn. Even friendships one day give way to goodbyes. The sea may roar but it must come still at the voice of the master. The changes in the weather and the seasons gives much assurance that nothing really lasts forever. The beginning of a thing is good but one must always remember it will come to an end Indeed we have been through a lot these past years. Only our Creator knows the tears we have cried, the sorrows and hardships we have endured, the friends we have made, the decisions we have made The ...

We are born into a world with seemingly no recollection of where we came from or why we are here on such a planet. With many expectations to fulfill, decisions to make, lives to impact, memories to build, friendships to make, we zoom into this pool called "the living" as if we have any compass to go by. Many are the distractions along the way, the disappointments that we face, the heartbreaks and setbacks that pull us down yet still, we do not give up but persevere seemingly to pursue a goal, an aspiration, a dream or even a destiny. The mistake we often make as humans is that we are too quick to forget the realities of life. No matter how we present ourselves or who we profess to be, the reality is we are mere mortals, flesh and blood have we all. We are all as clueless to our past (before birth) and are just struggling one way or the other to make our present make sense. As such, we pursue things, desire things all in a bid to get self-satisfaction. No man is better or more...
