WHERE DO YOU FALL ON THE LIST? BY TRAILBLAZER AREGBESOLA BUNMI

There are some men and women whom when I speak with, my life does not remain the same. I feel fire in my bones. I just want to pray. I just discover my heart burning. I just see myself wanting to quickly leave them at the moment to go and really pray. I just want to go and develop intimacy with God.

Ma, what do you have to offer? What do people see when they behold you? Hope it isn't only your beautiful face they behold all the time? Hope it isn't only all about you? I am careful in choosing my friends. I have different lists of friends.

Don't be surprised if I don't have much time with you. Of what need is our company if we cannot pray together? Why should we be together twenty-four-seven when your focus is different from mine? Yet you keep saying I am not getting closer. My friend, please come up higher. Do not be pleased with this level you are.

When people see us, let our expression be that which will give them sense of responsibility. let them behold Jesus on our face.

Let our lives set many on their toes. Let us leave our names on the sand of time. Let us grow up. Let us seek God. Refuse to join the the league of complacent people.

Iron sharpeneth iron; so a man sharpeneth the countenance of his friend. Proverbs 27:17

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER

NOT WITHOUT A FATHER For those who are so close to me, they will know I rarely mention my Dad. He's alive and healthy. I grew up not knowing my Dad. I grew up not knowing what fatherly love meant. My Dad is very much alive but we are far from each other. I was around 11 years or so before he came looking for me. First of all, I am grateful to God for giving me my mum. She went through a lot raising me. So, while I was growing up, I envied those who talked about their dad so much. I wish I could be like them. I wish I could have someone who would be able to show me love. I didn't know fatherly love not until when I met my Spiritual father in Ibadan in 2010. He received me with open arms. For several years, I lived with hurt and hatred in my heart. I cried bitterly most times when I reminisce about so many things. A day came when I heard God said to me"For this reason were you separated from your mother's womb, you are not accidental...

THE KID'S LOVE STORY (CHAPTER 1)

PREPARING TO BE A HELP MEET BY DEBI PEARL THE KID'S LOVE STORY (CHAPTER 1) Moral to the story: God wants, no, He needs us to pray. CAUTION: Don't pray amiss. The kid's love story is that of the author herself; Debi Pearl. She had just turned 13 when she first saw her man in a program and immediately she knew he was the right one for her. Of course the man didn't notice her not until many years later. Why would God bypass a guy of at least 21 years old, and come to a kid of 13 years old telling her he was the one she was going to marry. Sounds weird right? God does not do anything without a reason. He is the God who knows the end, right from the beginning. When the young Debi got home, she told her mum, and her mum began to follow her up to always pray for the man of God. The young Debi took it upon herself, praying for the man of God. She wasn't praying to be his wife, neither was she praying for him to notice her. She...

REVIEW OF THE MOVIE;THE TRAIN

REVIEW OF THE MOVIE;THE TRAIN So you see, before we start envying someone because of the height they have attained, please mellow. You do not understand what they have been through. You do not know how they have arrived at that point. You do not know how they have sacrificed their ALL on the altar of sacrifice. Till then, let's go back to God and pray that He helps us to be yielded to Him completely. I got teary at some points watching the movie. This is the movie I found many lessons to learn. I know I am not going to remain the same after this time. I sure know you won't remain the same too. If you haven't watched the movie, please do. LESSONS LEARNT 1.No man loves to be identified with a failure. Everyone loves to be identified with successful men. This was the case when Abayomi was asked to act the role of Goliath and he declined. 2. Watch out when you no longer love to dwell in the secret place, wh...

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE

HOW I NARROWLY ESCAPED RAPE Okay, before you go on, I am sending a big hug to you if you are a rape victim. I know it's not easy forgetting the ugly incidence but I want to tell you to let go of the past. I am not here to point accusing finger at you for whatever happened in the past. The past is past. Let your new you emerge. Come to love yourself. Forgive yourself. Forgive that person who defiled you. Let God wrap you in His arms. Majority of rape incidence happens because of the carelessness on the part of the lady. A lady who's frequenting a guy's house in odd hours may not return the same way she came if she's not careful. We can't also overlook the fact that some guys are monsters. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. They may appear harmless but they are like serpents. May God arrests their hearts. One day Dinah, Leah's daughter, went to visit some of the young women who lived in the area. But when the local prince, Shechem son of ...
