Love, No Strings Attached

"This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." -1 John 4:10 What motivated John to write five of the books of the New Testament? What sustained him through those turbulent first years of the church when persecution was rampant — when as many as eleven of his fellow apostles died violent deaths? What enabled him to cope with his own lonely exile on the isle of Patmos? Perhaps the answer is found in an idea that John mentioned repeatedly in his writings. That recurring theme is love.

What is my role in your life - W.L.Scott

What is my role in your life? Unless I stay in my role it will be a liability to you. I desire to be an asset to your life. I am here to bring out your beauty, which is very important to women. You have a beautiful face, which is one part of enhancing your beauty. 


Your intelligence is very high which is apart of enhancing your beauty. Most women are not aware of how much their knowledge, wisdom and understanding makes them very attractive. The integrity of your life is apart of enhancing your beauty. High moral standard is the foundation of your beauty, which comes from God the Father through Jesus Christ by the Holy Spirit. 

Enduring situations for our ultimate good...

In life, one should not be a sympathy seeker - you know why? Everyone is embroiled in their own problems to be concerned about your own.

I know this may sound crazy- we have prayer partners for particular causes that we are pushing through to make this country a better place, we have prayer groups where we share the word of God and pray, but you know what, the devil has a way of swaying you to stop focusing on the great God but to focus on the situations he brings in our midst.

Leading by example...easier said

So I have not been much of a good steward of the faith. Having been subjected to a changed environment in the office, I found myself behaving like a wild animal! Yeah, wild because I was not showing any difference between a young Christian lady being obedient to a higher authority or just any other wild girl.

When I sat out to do this piece, I found myself constantly saying, it is not my fault! I am not the cause of this and that If the director did a bit of what her core mandate is, then there would be no problem, but guess what, not by showing funny attitudes will she change - if she is the one that needs to change anyway. If I would ignore her, and do what I am asked to do at whatever time, then I would be fine.

Lord, Use My Story for Your Glory...

When I bumped into the following write up in the morning, the temptation was to nod and just close it from my inbox, then as a second thought, I took it for the blog for all else to see.

In life, we fail to realise opportunities to touch people's lives for God's glory. At time, its through our words of affirmation that one gets a glimpse of hope and a chance to start afress. At times, our lives are such a mess and needs a person to reignite the flame of God's love and desires for us through his son Jesus Christ that in him we may dwell and cause others to see hope and seek to dwell as well.

I am more than convinced that what I am is as a result of God's work in my life otherwise, I could be just anyone, as everyone in my country has adopted the one man for himself and God for us all attitude and mentality.

It is good to share a moment of yourself with someone- doesnt matter if it is a stranger to you. God brings such moments so that your light may shine through into the next person's light, or , simply, since iron sharpeneth iron, to sharpen and increase your thirst for Godly wisdom and understanding.

So, may you, in your daily walk, take time to praise, worship and honour God, for to mim belong all the praise and glory.

Philippians 2:9-11

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

For such a time as this...

For if you remain completely silent at this time, relief and deliverance will arise for the Jews from another place, but you and your father’s house will perish. Yet who knows whether you have come to the kingdom for such a time as this? Esther 4 vs 14

When we were born, at this time, we were born to meet a particular need that only we can meet and fulfill.  It is therefore important to look at yourself and closely analyse those areas in your life that continue to bother you and frustrate you so much you want to see a change – that is your calling.

When God created man, he did not just decide to fill the earth with purposeless individuals, but with people called to manage God’s affairs on planet earth (Genesis 2 vs 5b).

Ephesians 3:14-19

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named, That he would grant you, according to the riches of his glory, to be strengthened with might by his Spirit in the inner man; That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God. 

A moment of change

This world we live in has people who do not have time to appreciate an effort put by the other. One too many a times we have heard moments when we almost gave up. That time when walking away and turning our backs was the best decision we could ever make.

I have been frustrated right to the core. I believe as I work daily, I should be learning new things, growing in my understanding, analysis and critical thinking towards issues. I should be able to look back and say, I learned so much at this time, but when you spend so much time and fail to point at a point of growth, then, in my view, it is the moment of change.

Change has never been easy, but when change happens, as it is bound to, because the only constant thing in life is change, and it makes one question their commitment to a cause, then it is a prudent time to find out if the change was/is worth it.
