Self Esteem - The Beginning

It’s been a while since I read a book – not since last year actually. I’ve been soooo busy with one thing or the other that I’ve barely had the time. But I have repented of my ways and I’m back on track with my “One book a month” commitment. In November last year, in my post Knock, knock please let me in!!!! I mentioned the book I am currently reading. It’s titled The New Building Your Mates...

Ezer is one!!!! Woooo hoooo

48 posts (this is the 49th), 3355 page views and 1 year later Ezer Kenegdo / Help Meet is one!!!!!! Wooohoooo. I’m so grateful to God it’s unbelievable. It’s amazing to think that in one year I have struggled with all sorts of challenges that threatened to stop God’s work here, but God who is called faithful has indeed been faithful. I’m grateful to Him for all those He used in one way or the other...

The Valentine Story

“I’m so sorry” Jane gushed almost knocking me down in a hurry to get somewhere. Bending down to pick up the files the impact had sent flying. “It’s ok. Just take it easy so you get where you are going in one piece” I replied. “So you must have seen what Tade got today?” She asked excitedly. ”No” I replied curtly. “Oh ok. I thought since you were coming from the direction of her office...

MY Lord, my King, my Valentine, my Everything

I don’t remember the day I was born, but You do. I don’t remember my first birthday, but You do. I don’t remember what I wore the day I asked You to be my Everything, but You do. I don’t even remember the exact time I woke up yesterday, or how long it took me to get ready, but You do. I don’t know how many strands of hair I have on my head, but You do. I don’t know how much I weight right now,...

My Lord, My Valentine

My Lord, My Valentine : Your love never gives up on me

No, not ever! Never ever will You give up on me.  You see the potential in me. You see all that I can be. You don’t give up when I’m rigid and difficult to mould. Not even when I stubbornly turn away from You. You are my biggest fan, having faith in me when I have none in myself. Where would I be without this persevering love of Yours. That doesn’t give up when it’s not returned, not...

My Lord, My Valentine : Your Love keeps no record of my wrongs

Lord, I’ve been bad. Remember all the things I’ve done, the things I’ve thought of doing? How can you love me after all that? You smile, and pull me even closer into Your warm embrace, the harder I struggle to get away from You. You whisper o so gently “Old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new” What manner of Love is this? That constantly starts on a clean slate,...

My Lord, My Valentine: Your Love does not demand it's own way with me

Ps 18: 30 “God’s way is perfect. All the Lord’s promises prove true.” Everything about You is perfect. You know everything, yet You force nothing on us, even though Your ways are ALWAYS right. Free will; just one of the many evidences of Your love for us means You force nothing on no one, but instead patiently wait for us to see the error of our ways. For us to turn to You the one true God- greater...

My Lord, My Valentine : Your Love is kind to me

Generous and considerate; what manner of love is this? Blessed beyond belief is what You’ve made me. You treat me independently of how i treat You. Testimony upon testimony has been my lot, even when i had no relationship with You. Everything i am, everything i have is as a function of You. How can You show me so much kindness? Make my life a testimony of Your mercy and favour? You are so gracious,...

My Lord, My Valentine : Your Love is Patient with me

You called me when I was 8, and like the little girl I was I ran into Your arms, no questions asked. You saw me through so much. But then I grew, not in wisdom, but in stupidity, and told myself I didn't need You, not by my words but through my actions. All that sin seemed like much more fun than time with You. Now, I can’t believe I chose this world over You, A world that hurt me time...
