DAWN OF A NEW DAY

Image
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 ...

THE LAST MILE OF THE WAY

Image
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...

I AM SORRY

Our various personalities and upbringing in life have shaped us all in various ways. As a man of God once said, "we are the product of our experiences". Many things in life that have happened to us have either made us strong or weak, feeble or strong, even self-willed or dependent on God. We are all born into different homes with varying decisions to make everyday, different resources at our disposal and diverse personalities to demonstrate everyday. No man is an island and as such, we are bound to interface with each other everyday at the workplace, in the school or even in the home. One interactions with each other demands that we sometimes "speak our mind", express our deepest emotion, advice the wayward, counsel the lost or even share our experiences. Moments of sadness and joy demands the use of a certain tone of voice and also choice of words that are befitting the occasion.Thus, a thank you may suffice when someone has done something good for you the same way...

WHAT TO DO WHEN PRAYER SEEMS TO FAIL

Image
At times in a Christian’s life, it seems as if God has given up on you It seems God is no more listening, if feels you are all alone One funny thing is reading and enjoying a story from a book about heroes of faith or men of healing and how God mightily used them A quick study however shows that there is one point in their journey that there seemed to be total silence in their lives This is what I personally call “times when prayer seems to fail” Mind you!!! Prayer can never fail!! God’s word is so sure concerning his promise He is sure to fulfill all His promises in His word, the Bible But, what do you do, or how do you react in a situation to pray all the prayers you know how to pray, recite all the bible verses you can remember, and you remind God of all His promises concerning healing and deliverance but there seems to be no answer That point in your life when you need God the most, that point in your life that you feel you have lived as holily and righteously as yo...
