We found it.............. Congratulations Donnie McClurkin and Nicole C. Mullen

 That was the sound of my parent's toast at their wedding many years ago. 
When I discovered it was either we've found it or we've got it, I decided that at my wedding we would be sure enough to say we've found it (so they don't arrest us for copying them). 

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; 
the which when a man hath found, he hideth, 
and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.

Scriptina Regular

Even though people know this as a bible story, I see a leave and cleave in this too.
 I am mighty excited about Nicole C. Mullen and Donnie McClurkin's upcoming nuptials .
I watched the beginning of this video and my heart was glad, the whole video is very cool.
When next you want to advise me to reel in a man, Please remember that a man has to be willing to go out of his way to want to love me and pray for me and wash me and cover me with the word and with love. I love weddings, I love families, i want children, i want love and i am sure that i am worth fighting for.
I am learning to cook and pray, but he has an endless list of to dos as well. God told the man, he didn't tell the woman, I am sure he expected the man to transfer the information. The man is the head, the head has the brain and runs the rest of the body, She is made out of a rib, its in her nature to shield his vital parts. 
Watch the video too and we can discuss it or better still buy the book.
I heard
1. when a man is strong it affords him the opportunity to be gentle and kind
2. Actions and values must line up
3. Strength is the courage to live out your convictions
If you already married, this will help you too.
But at the end of the day, God is the author and finisher of our faith.

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 ...

Plasas!

That's what everything is called here. As long as the food has some kind of liquid it is plasas. From Okro, Egusi, Spinach, and Vegetable soup, everything is plasas. Imagine my surprise when I felt I was making giant strides in my krio language class: only to learn that all the exotic soups we struggle to classify back home are all shipped into a bowl called plasas. Are we commonizing the goodness and faithfulness of God? Are we trivializing the daily miracles we enjoy? You are not medication dependent, institutionalized or incarcerated somewhere but, you don't seem to find a reason for gratitude? I think you make just have a case of plasas syndrome. It has been raining back to back here, and I was complaining. Looking at this picture I took a few months ago, gratitude wells up from inside my heart for many things 1. Life to be able to witness the changing seasons 2. Eyes that can see the breathtaking view  3. The mental faculty to understand and enjoy what my eyes see. When ne...
