Nuggets On The Journey (Part1)



I will be real and open as I can in this blog …. My journey, struggles, milestones and others .They could change someone’s life ,  it’s about taking steps of faith and being a vessel for God. 

Some of the things I have learnt…
Fallout from PUBLIC OPINION …. People will always talk whether you do good or bad. That is a cliché saying that I find very relevant. As soon as you were born, people had countless opinions about you…. You are fat, dark, bright, dumb and what not, people never quit talking.

Opinions especially as a Christian are the least of things to counter for. God’s Opinion validates you. Jeremiah 29:11.  So many people looking for identity from the world yet the Lord has the Blueprint standard of who you really are.

2. Try as much to fellowship with likeminded people .Sometimes ,push comes to show and you need someone reliable to talk to.

..Personally, this was hard because all my cool friends had to go, sometimes you have to lose to gain. I honestly think I have the coolest friends in Christ, who help me grow and challenge my faith and I wouldn’t have met them if I did not let go.


3. Read the bible and mediate upon the word, get inspirational books or CDS that can help you grow.   

Start small, Chew what you can swallow and with time it will be easy like reading you favorite Newsfeed. Watching sermons really increased my spiritual hunger as well as checking out scriptures.  It’s a journey that starts with a step, then you perfect it as you go on. Good thing we have a savior (Jesus)and a helper (HolySpirit)who lead the way.

Lastly, No one is perfect, you will fall, miss some steps, grow weary, wake up feeling like you need a break …. Everyone around you won’t understand, but keep going. 

The Whole point of Salvation is what exactly? you may ask.
 Its Finding Peace, Love, Identity,comfort,Forgiveness and Redemption...Walking in Purpose and finding Rest in Jesus Christ.

 We all have a journey, it cannot be same but these are some of the things that helped me and still help me grow.

Why the Devil wants You for Dessert ! - On the Menu

Let’s agree to disagree, this year has a point to prove, it’s in a rush. It’s on the run to somewhere; it has to be there by December.     I am not sure whether I am the one experiencing this, but Sunday is such a throw stone away from Monday nowadays. It feels like yesterday I was huffing and puffing trying to get my resolutions together, it’s now July . Anyway I am buckling up and keeping up with the speed levels of 2018.   2018, if you can hear me, I am breaking sweat as well, we shall revisit and settle in December. .................... I love Nigerians, it’s not their Jollof rice or their incredible sense of art, and it’s their oomph! ,   I have a thing for their vigour. I find them so boisterous in their confession especially. You can tell when Jesus said, the kingdom suffers violence and the violent shall take it by force, that was for them.   I have limited knowledge about them but I have managed to gather a few traits here and...

This Year is different , Make it Count

Happy 2017 !!! Aren't we all excited that it's a new year?   There is always a fresh aroma in the air every new year and I know that's God's way of saying " Here is a fresh Start!". This year must be different!  So I told myself but let's get into that dialogue of why  I think so.  Only a fool does the same thing over and over and expects the same results...  a wise man's quote.  I agree,  I am victim of expecting the same results while I have been doing nothing different.   4 things I have been learning that I want to share with you.   1.Everything is a heart Issue  Proverbs 4:23 " Keep your heart with all diligence for out of it are the issues of Life "  that word keep is also Guard on some translations .  Your heart is not a joke.... Show me your heart and I will show you your issues.  I bumped on some Instagram quote that read " Discern your Judas from your Peter... Judas had a bad heart....

God Does not Work For Me -A conversation.

This is not the usual post, in fact, if you are religious, shuuuu! this one is not for you🙋. Disclaimer! This is not the kind of post for self-proclaimed judges! We are keeping it real!  The last couple of months have been interesting. I have interacted with a couple of people that have voiced out this kind of a thing- God does not work for me anymore. From their expressions, I could tell they were coming from a sincere place. The patent reaction I would have opted for was the need to shove down that religious vibe of "Imagine God is real and he has good plans for you, and quote some scriptures". But this time, I decided to just listen in and understand. The truth is, I cannot purport to understand why that is their conclusion but sadly, they live under such a reality. The way we Christians are set up, we have clever ways of dodging issues and saying " Imagine it is well, cast all your anxiety to Jesus'', Yet we cannot produce solutions to cure these h...
