  Luke 5:32 " I have not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance ." After Christ called on Levi "the tax collector", He had a feast at Levi's house and fellow tax collectors and friends ("Sinners") tagged along. For an enlightened Christian "Psalm 1:1 came to mind " Blessed is the man, that walketh not, sitteth not with the sinner (KJV)". But Christ did!?🤨 One would rightly conclude that Christ ("Our Model") ought not to have associated Himself with known sinners let alone share in a banquet with any of them. I would say Levi "the tax collector" would have been a perfect substitute for the  Yahoo Boys  of our time ,Think about it..🤔 Do you know what Christ did? He looked out for them so that they might repent.  Obviously, the thoughts of God are not akin to human rational wisdom. That's the mindset, that's the goal! After all, He's the saviour, again a Saviour yet without a price or a condi...

While growing up, I used to think life goes  this way: Finish my higher education, Get a good-paying job that will settle my bills. My own kind of comfort, with a bit of luxury. Then, I get to further my education or probably get an interesting engagement, As long as the bag is steady. But life hasn’t dealt much with me when I realized this isn’t how I want to live. This structure isn’t satisfying. Having had the opportunity to work as a volunteer in different work spaces and walk with different people,  I have seen the frustration, dissatisfaction, and the death in the eyes of men. The lamentation and murmuring goes on and on. Like the saying goes, “ more money, more problems."😓 This isn’t born out of greed; It's just the way we are wired to never rest until we find the meaning to our existence. Unfortunately, not every man achieves life's purpose, or, I’d say, we all have different perspectives on what life should be as opposed to what it is meant to be. No doubt, human...

 "God's foundation standeth sure and He knows those who are His" God is not compromising and He never will.

God is a spirit .  As human,we tend to be emotional because we are made of flesh and blood. Some one once asked me,why then do we have feelings if God doesn't n...

   A familiar Yoruba saying that simply means "Your character is your beauty" When we hear the word 'beauty'" we tend to turn heads to the female, but this applies to both gender (Male and Female). Character simply means your moral strength. it can also be termed as one's attitude or behavior. we must understand that it's adds value when gotten right.  This brings us back to its bedrock ,the foundation -"Family". This institute/group doesn't necessary mean relation by blood. Speak of the orphans and those who ain't privilege to live with parent. Family connote people in relationship of love, people whose companion gives joy, consciously or unconsciously laying themselves as an example and influence over you.  Mind you, these influences there by forms your morals and relationship out there with people. " In all your getting, get value". As human, Having a right attitude and moral is a value that helps to maintain all that which ...

'Understanding your vision'- would have been the expected phrase and you might be wondering what kind of Passion? Here's a little tweak and a different context. "I know what enthusiasm they have for God, but it is misdirected zeal." (Romans 10:2) Have you ever thought about it? That you have passion but yet lack knowledge,that you're zealous for him but yet unenlightened? I was once in this shoes. Growing up as really been amazing and such a memorable one.. memorable indeed!.. I was nicknamed " Church girl ".  This is  because I was so passionate for the things of God,you will find me in almost eivery department,services in church. I was the youngest in the choir and wasn't a teenager then,they just couldn't push me aside in the youth. The youngest to get baptised ( by immersion) . Now I realized that all those zeal and passion then was just to fill a void and give a kind of satisfaction..even though for real I had no knowledge..well, I know ...

 "Nigeria" Motherland,My home  In thy blossom I lay I watch as ... All feets race towards thee Thy breast flowing with Milk and Honey. Every hand stretches to snatch off thy goodness Yes ! you have given in-Embracing Beaten and battered , Exploited and exposed. Look !All thy children are scattered, Some imitator of thy foolishness, Some gone with  thy goodness Look! thy children suffer malnutrition, Fear and insecurities, How cowardly ,they shuddered. One question rest on my mind, Mother,Can you still own up to your inadequacies? Can you till gather your children ? Stop the Facade- Copy cat! Can we still work towards one?-undivided Can you teach us? that we might be planted,  Even for the sake of generations unborn. My plead, As thy Creator bestowed ageless beauty   Thy Children shall be ever-green  Grey Diamonds,wow! you just turned sixty! Thy children shall flourish  Even in this clouds that we might see the silver linings.  Like a wind, aw...
