Lighting another candle

There is a tendency for everybody to feel that they know you. Many times everybody, yes everybody falls into that deception that they can figure another human out. But at the end of the day, nobody can ever be explained away. If not there wouldn't be any element of surprise, no magic, no miracle and no life. The earth would have been full of zombies graded by a particular system. Evolution, seasons and times would not exist. But as long as they are fashion trends, cultural changes and evolutions, life as we know it would continually be one evolving beauty, constantly changing and moving.
As you meet people try to listen to them you will discover that they are not as bad as they seem.
Quite a number of times you will have run ins with scum bags and schmucks but at the end of the day you will miss very important experiences,people and friends because you didn't listen.
Sadly enough they will never be great not because dont have it in them to be great but because it was only you that had the midas touch at that time.'
A wildfire is just a waste of heat, light and everything else that comes its way. It cant cook a meal, illuminate a dark place or offer warmth to a freezing child on a cold night. Everybody will be trying very hard to put it out. Is light good? Oh sure. Is heat needful? Ofcourse. But of what use are you if you are useless to everybody else.
All the world greats have someone that is a part of their crew because at a time when no body else saw them. That one person listened and saw the greatness in them.
You can be that one person if you take out time to listen.
Have a great day people.

My Gratitude Journal

Today I have decided to switch things up a little bit. I want to thank you for testimonies that seem like a lie. All of them are a result of your goodness and benevolence to me and mine. Especially in this season where people are judging the seasons if their lives by what is being said on the NEWS and in the stock market. I judge your faithfulness by the goodness I have enjoyed in and out of season. My cruise of oil has not run out neither has my barn of wheat dried up. You have been faithful and good in every area of my life. This picture depicts the condition of my heart, joy, gratitude and nothing more. God is dependable.

WAITING

I have been a mom for two months and I think my greatest challenge has been waiting. Waiting during the pregnancy period and wondering what the baby would look like,  what delivery will feel like,  will the things I bought be enough? Then the child comes and everything is meant to align to her timetable. Sleep when she is sleeping they say, do they remember Deborah has a work deliverable waiting on you? Sleep when she is sleeping they advise, that is except you are preparing their lunch, then you can stay awake, finish cooking, serve and clean the kitchen. Then there is the ministry of helps that you are not sure how to receive. They can only help you in their convenience which is kind of confusing because you do not really need the kind of help they are offering and the next thing you hear is "Use all the help you get" After some time, you get to a point where you are in a rhythm you don't know how it started but it doesn't reflect what you do and you are focused on ...

Chronicles of a love walk 1

Lagos Sunset (@b4best 2015) Hello Everyone. I have been going through a lot lately. As an individual, a budding career person, a friend, woman, sister and really I am learning that it is necessary for me to put to use all the learning, training and experiences that I have inside. I have been learning and growing painful sometimes, but i know that at the end of the day I win and come out on top. I have had a Myles Munroe's snippet on my phone that I play every morning as I commute to work:  "Everything that I need to be great and awesome is in me,  the tools are ready, the future is ready, the execution is up to me." We hear of a refiner's fire and I for one thought it was probably just a buffer cousin of cooking fire with a few burns and scrapes we will be fine, but I am learning that they are not even neighbours. Even though as I type this, I am grateful for God's mercy because if He decides to blast out everything once, I do not think I would ...
