As the words echoed, God said to me, "Just wait on me. I make all things beautiful.
Your victory is someone else’s hope
I had a conversation with an acquaintance yesterday and told me about a business she just relaunched, the vision she has for it and the challenges she has been facing. I could totally relate with all that she said. After listening to her for a while, I told her that she would be fine and she was …
Confessions of a girl trying to find her way
My eyes are heavy as I write this post, heavy because the weekend was a long one and also because for some months now, I haven't been sleeping well. For various reasons. But I have to write this post. In fact, I realized that I have to go back to posting daily on my blog. …

Not by your power or might but by God’s Spirit
I have spent the last few days in hibernation (ok maybe weeks). I needed time away from the world, away from obligations, away from the heaviness that weighed me down for months. During this period, I had to seek the face of God. I needed to understand was going on. I had become emotionally numb. …

I’ll choose joy over and over again
So this has been a very challenging week for me. In fact, the last few weeks have been challenging. It looked as if the devil had signed a contract to frustrate me by all means. After returning from a program in Ibadan, I fell really ill; constant migraines, fatigue and dizzyness were just a few …
All things bright and beautiful
There are times I wonder how people who don’t know Christ cope with tough times. What do they hold on to? What gives them hope? How do they keep on going? I’m really curious because life can knock you really hard and it takes the sheer grace of God for you to get right back …
Leave a mark; someone is watching
Monday was quite a remarkable day for me. I love birthdays because it's the one day in the year where everything revolves around you. Well almost everything. Aside from the birthday wishes and love, what struck me this year was the similarity in the prayers people uttered and the words they spoke. Everything I have …
A special place in God’s heart
I woke up this morning feeling quite excited. I had an amazing weekend; stressful but amazing. The event in Ibadan went well! I cannot even find the words to describe how awesome the event was. In my last post about the event, I wrote about how I was nervous about speaking at the event and …
Dare to follow your dreams
We had a visitor in my house who asked me to tell him what I do. I was hesitant to have this particular discussion because my mum was there. She still doesn't approve of what I do and I wasn't in the mood to deal with rolling eyes and side comments. But this person was …
It doesn’t matter who has gone ahead of you
I listened to a very powerful message in church yesterday; one that gave me a lot of things to ponder on. We've been doing a series about purpose in my church and yesterday's message was all about how to fulfil your life's purpose. In his message, the pastor gave an example that I could do …
