SELF DISCOVERY - dear dreamer

Image
  Is it just me or do you think that Joseph's journey might have been smoother and 'less up and down' if only he had kept his dream to himself (this is just a thought). But we can learn the importance of letting God do the announcement sometimes.  Now it's not everytime God reveals His intentions in forms of dreams or visions , more often that not, these things can be heard or percieved by the help of the Holy Spirit . This guy is not one to showoff so He lowkey throws signs here and there but when you do not know or are not in tune with Him , you miss out on these freebies . The end result of this sometimes is you praying for months or years waiting on that dream when He probably must have spoken to you already.    you don't have the Holy Spirit just for keeps, engage Him as much as you should . on your journey to self-discovery, the power of Association cannot be overemphasized. When people come into your life, they don't just bring their bodies , they b

Self Discovery - A different topping

Image
I remember that as a child I just always had this conviction that I was different - special . I never exactly saw myself the way I saw everyone else. Especially that I frequently had this ‘ deja vu experience’. I didn’t understand it or what it meant and why I always had ‘ It’ so often. I didn’t relate much and never really told anyone about these experiences so in my head I was the only one who ‘ saw things  that I had seen before’.  and so I came to a resolve that this was what made me special... Until I grew older and realized that I was mistaken as a lot of my friends related to having these same experiences as well. At that point I felt I had lost hold of what made me special . I mean if Everyone shared this same gifting - How then was I special? What made me different from Everyone if we were all the same? I then disregarded that resolution that I was special but deep down I knew that I was different, I just didn’t know what it was anymore. ••• WHAT AM I TRYING TO POINT OUT?•••

Self Discovery - Who am I?

There are great discoveries in the world today but the greatest discovery anyone can ever make is Self-discovery .  I think “ who am i ?” has to be the most nerve racking question that you have to ask yourself. Like a mystery that has to be unraveled, it is tasking, mentally and emotionally draining especially when you try to go on this journey by yourself .   do not make the mistake of thinking you can do it alone because there are many things you are that even you don’t know about.... Now a lot of people or let’s say a certain percentage of people discover themselves in the early years of their lives while the other percentage of people discover themselves later on. No ! I’d rather not use the word “ late ” because in the time frame of God, He left that out in His dictionary. I mean He could have created the world in one day, especially that He had the angels to support Him but He rather by Himself took His time - 6 whole days to create the world, something He could have done in less

It’s Okay

It’s okay, I understand how in one minute you could burst from all the happiness you have inhaled from the world and the very next minute you feel sadness eating deep in your soul..... It’s okay, I understand how in one minute you have everything figured out and the very next minute you have more unanswered questions.... It’s okay, I understand how in one minute you’re full of hope and the next minute your faith is questioned....                           •   •          •   •          •   •          •   • Truth be told, it’s way easier to just live in the moment because you never know what the next moment will bring. Sometimes it feels like you have everything on check. There’s always this sense of fulfillment that comes with having everything figured out which is not bad actually. It’s just that life likes to pull surprises on us sha.... Let me not even lie, I’ve had to my bio on IG changed so many times and at every point I did, the feeling that came with it was - Yes! Finally, this

Worth and Value

  your relationship with yourself sets the tone for every other relationship you have.... See ehn.... not everyone knows your worth , not everyone knows your value and in all honesty, that’s just fine because that is not even the problem - trust me there are worse problems in the world but that’s a gist for another day. don’t get lost in your thoughts so quickly, stay with me.... It becomes or it is now a problem when you by your own self o do not know your worth, how priceless you are. Now that’s a problem, in fact, the first problem you should solve . I mean God created you with so much love in His heart and in His mercies infused you with tons and tons of that love so much so you can actually share a measure of that love with the people around you. i mean... how awesome is that? It feels like some sort of superpower to me and if you ask me, no! I wouldn’t even trade that for anything in the world See... just stop putting so much energy and attention  on whatever you call a ‘ flaw ’

That Body Is Only A House

What is your Why?

          See ehn, sometimes there’s no reason  in the beginning and that's okay... I’m pretty sure there has been a few times where you have an idea or get an inspiration to do or to start something, it's not like you ever thought of before, it maybe just crossed your mind and you just put it out there- no analogy or a badass planning or whatever it's these days, and    you know people just welcomed the idea or project so warmly, it feels really good abi?               Na here matter one be like say e don spoil....  Now one uncle or aunty poses the “ why ” question and then boom! It hits you hard, how could they have shattered that table you were sitting so comfortably on, you just sat down now ...abi? I’m pretty sure hearing that simple  yet nerve wrecking question you probably have already done a thousand flip backs and your brain might burst open from thinking so hard for an answer. Just calm down, you are not alone o! Oftentimes you don’t have a “why” per-say in the be

Your Identity

So let’s say I asked about the first thing you were gifted when you were born or as a child. You would probably refer to a particular toy, for some who were born with a silver spoon, you would maybe tell me about a really expensive necklace that you still own or you know, just something fancy. Well... when a child is born, the first thing he/she is gifted is a name, an Identity. Regardless of when, why or how often it happens, the giving and receiving of a name is an event of major importance which cuts across culture and religion. Irrespective of the fancy shoes or bags or whatever we were gifted at birth, a name is the most priceless gift because your name is the greatest connection to your own identity, individuality and is a crucial factor in developing your sense of self.   I know I should chip in the story of Jabez who by prayers broke through the wrong identity given to Him at birth but that’s a story for another day.   Always remember  “   your name illuminates your Identity, d

His plan, His time, Not mine

  You know as a teenager, I thought I had my life all figured out- finish Uni by 20, begin my career at 21, get my first car at 23, get married at 24, have my first child at 25 and by 30, I would be ready to have my tubes tied (literally) and then get back to being a sweet sixteen... you know, quite simple, organized...   Well, it feels like I probably was making one hell of a joke and God must have had a really good laugh, because He surely did have or has other plans for me... you know life has a way of revealing more of God and His plans or taking you farther away from them (my best bet is that you go with the first option, it’s safer, better and more assuring).     Now at 24, I’ve only just discovered my path and I’m about to begin my journey and that’s okay. We all have different numbers on the clock and it ticks differently for everyone but that doesn’t mean it’s late for either of us.     So to anyone like me, I hope in a few years we can say “ I told you so, delay isn’t denial”
