From Chaos to Clarity: A Testament to God's Love in the Midst of Adversity

I've heard this Bible verse so many times that it didn't hit me until a few months ago: "He cares about even the minute details of our lives." This is in Matthew 10:29-31 (NIV). In the first quarter of the year, the Lord led me to pray for strength in the face of adversity and to pray against chaos/division in my marriage. I didn't understand why, seeing that my husband and I were in a GREAT place, navigating our differences with such finesse that would make people jealous! Like we were good, really good, and all was sunny and beautiful in my home. We even had productive discussions about what our "culture" in our home should look like, and we agreed on so many things, including communication and dealing with anger. Agreeing and doing the work were two different things. After we had agreed, mishaps kept coming up, but the Holy Spirit kept helping us remember our culture, so it was mainly a case of dying to pride and selfish tendencies for this new order

Help! I HATE this person

 Motherhood has had me in the trenches, there are days that are tough and some that were tiring but the good days, the days that fill my heart with warmth and pride far outweighs the "not-so-good" days. If you have been following me (although I have not been fairly consistent), but still if you have you will know that almost a year ago, my life changed for the better. I gave birth to the most beautiful princess. And while I would never trade this moments for anything, my passion for  writing and creating Vlogs have been on the back bench collecting dust. I never seem to have the time for the things I used to love until I realized I was expecting the time that was always at my disposal pre-baby, would somehow suffice in the midst of my day and I would be able to do a 4~5hours deep work to achieve productivity. Writing this now and I'm laughing at myself! Fairy tale! I have help for the major things. House chores, shopping, etc because taking care of a child/children is a f

Your Child will have jaundice

 Hey guys it's been a very long time! I truly missed writing every other day but life's demands have been too great on me lately that I've not had the time to do some of the things I love. I've finally gotten a hang of most of my responsibilities plus I have help so I am back to stay! To catch you guys up on some major events that have happened in my life; I have been blessed with the exceptional gift of a daughter! whew! This blog just got more interesting because I have a ton of things to write about motherhood but not today but definitely in the days to come. I have a lot to share, God has been so good! Back to our topic, what you believe or receive over your life or that of your loved ones (as I recently discovered) will be what becomes your/their reality.  A few hours after giving birth to my daughter, I was sitting on the bed, overwhelmed and tired yet somehow with a full heart and feeling so blessed at the same time. While sitting down, the hospital pediatrician

Times and Seasons....

 I struggled with the title of this piece.  The goal is to get you to understand that every season of your life is authored by God.  Even the ones you do not like or seem to be burdensome.  Acts 1:7  He said to them, “It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority There is a time for everything. There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens..  + Ecclesiastes 3:1 This does not take away the fact that sometimes, a season may need to last a little while and due to our decisions, it tarries for a very long time. Remember the story of the isrealites, and how they tarried in the wilderness for 40years because of complaining!  Personally, I've learned that staying in sin, living in disobedience can keep you in a "wilderness" for a really long time. You cannot be dishonest in your dealings and expect the superatural blessings of God. You cannot keep fornicating and expect God to bless your relationship

Let go of the Past!

  I've been super busy with growing a business and managing my family- hence my short absence. But I am back for real! Today, my topic is a little bit personally inspired but one thing I've always promised you, my dear readers is to be totally honest and in the light of that, you learn and God alone be glorified. This blog is so personal and my desire is that the multitude come to christ via my words. My truth in ink. I am a dreamer and quite recently I added a DOER to my list. I dream of something? I begin to work towards it intentionally.  Now, there are times I get bored but the holy spirit has helped me to remain faithful to my garden even when I loose that first excitement that comes with a starting a new project or a love attraction. As I go through life, I realise that every season we go through is for a reason and notably to prepare us for something we prayed for or a season God so desires for us.  Again, I digress... to the topic at hand. Ten years ago, I applied for s

How to forgive Sincerely

When you search for the synonym of forgiveness you will find these words among others: reprieve, amnesty, mercy, exoneration, pardon and condoning.  Forgiveness does not always come so easily especially if someone you hold in high regard hurts you. Personally, forgiveness did not used to come to me easily. My default mode on dealing with betrayal and hurt was to run far away from the person or detach myself emotionally from the person. This solves nothing. Some people jump over it, ignore it or sweep it under the carpet and live in complete denial. Such people wake up one day and blow things out of proportion over a very small offence. They have been holding it all in and then one day, the proverbial "cup don full" happens! Some say they have forgiven but continue to talk about that betrayal or hurt every chance they get. Others NEVER forgive, this results in years and years of malice. Forgiveness is being aware that someone wronged you and granting them mercy or repr

New month,New you? How to get the most out of a new month!

Happy new month!  I'm so excited that we have the gift of a new cycle. A time to start all over again, a time to go back to our mood board and restructure. How do you start your month? Do you just go into the month with no plan or direction  OR are you part of the lot that makes all the plans BUT few days into the new month, you're back into old habits. This used to be me.  It's almost impossible to drag our "flesh man" (our physical body) to do the right thing because it LOVES to be comfortable.  I've learned that if I want to see changes in my life, I have to do something differently. Especially positive changes. I remember this one time I had a business, just before I moved abroad temporarily and the sales were increasing almost daily! I struggled with consistency and this affected my business negatively. Today, I would post, interact with customers and do the right thing. Tomorrow? If I'm not feeling it, I just blank out. Whe
