the heritages

we celebrate the heritages of God today; CHILDREN.
no matter where in the world or the circumstances that surrounded a child's birth; whether it was wanted or unwanted, however it came about, children are God's heritage. He made everyone of them.
today is Children's day and i'm seriously thinking on what i should to do. had my children been born, i guess we would have....
but since they are not here yet, what can i do? what special thing?

this is what i can do for now. i will list out 5 children i know and pray for them each, specifically. i will pray for their lives now and for their future and for issues particular to each of them.
then i will pray to God for the well being of the less privileged children.

i don't know about any other person but i feel I'm obliged to do this today.

to all the children in the world, I SINCERELY CARE AND IF I COULD I WILL SHOW IT TO EVERYONE OF YOU. may you all enjoy today and life as a whole . BE BLESSED!

PLEASANT TIREDNESS

I went to work today, my first job in my new company. i have a partner and we clean houses, infact any kind of space. we are called THE HOUSEHELPERS.

Wow! i really feel good and for the first time, i have experienced highest joys at doing something. i discovered today i was on track. there was this wonderful feeling of joy and accomplishment when we were shotting the door to the house we cleaned. we walked into a very dirty three bedroom flat and here we were living after 5 hours, but leaving the house transformed.

it was after we finished that my body began talking and all i heard was : 'i'm tired girl, please take me home, infact, i need food...." but then i realised it was a pleasant tiredness and hunger.

i got home, i rested and i'm back to me and u know what i cant wait for the next space to clean.

i must say the kind of joy i felt today and still feel should be experienced by all, so this i have to say:

find what u are passionate about and get started.

you dont have to wait for the right time to start, be at it now.

commit your ways to God and He sure will be of great help.

believe that you can make a difference..

dare to be more. we all can be.

IN THE BEGINING

In the beginning God created....
you know i believe there is something about beginnings. there is a grace upon beginnings that if when tapped into will yield an unending flow of greater beginnings.

when something begins new, there is that hope that comes alive, that feeling that it will be well.
its like that at the beginning of a relationship, or at the beginning of a new project or at the beginning of a new month, the belief that another fresh page is being opened for us to make better decisons and to have better opportunities light up the candle of hope within our hearts.

i have that hope now. In the beginning God created...
this is my beginning, the beginning of a new year, my best year ever, my year of creation.

i will create my 2011.
i will design my months, one after the other
i will map out my projects and goals
i will plan my celebrations
oh
i will call forth my offsprings and prepare for their arrival
i will list out my holiday resorts
i will spice up the pot of love in my home
i will organize to give to the less privilege.

really, i will create my world, to my taste, it is the season for molding and forming, just like in d beginning.

i urge you to bask in the grace of the season and draw the plan of your 2011. you are here for such a time as this.

draw on dear architect, the sky is your starting point.

CONGRATS! CONGRATS!! CONGRATS!!!

LAST AND FIRST

every thing that has a beginning has an end. when 2010 began, twas like it wouldn't end in anoder plenty of days. but it has ended so soon and i wonder if its really plenty of days.

people, we all are d most privileged people living. if u r reading this, please pause and look up or around, or inward or downward, however u presume you can feel God and mouth to Him these three words, THANK YOU FATHER.

does anyone think life is possible without Him. lets not even go there. hmn, i have not even started trying to pay my God back in praising Him. i know i cant repay completely but i must do the one i can.

LAST AND FIRST; for some today is their last on earth, for some others its their first. it cant be ur first no more but it can be your last.

we say God forbid. if it is not to be our last, what do we think we could be spared for? most people quickly say "to do more for Him, to affect more lives"...... ! well, if i were God, that wont move me cos all the times we have had to do what we could has not been fully utilised.

what is the message here? we all need to be more serious and responsible. we need to stop the pretense that we are working when we are actually just trying to be active. we need to be more real, because thats where God's help finds us. we need to be less judgemental because thats why so many think they are better and as such they become redundant. we need to be less judgemental because we also have alot up our sleeves.

though we cant be born afresh, we could make today our first day; we could start afreesh, we could do the new year resolutions. they have been effective for some they could be for u, with dedication.
lets make 2011, count for us for a fresh start, and lets go one day at a time from there.

i for one, i want to be more focused. i want to be more reflective and i want to be more ready for opportunities. i need to work on myself. what i have now, 80% of it is from archives of years past, researches i made. i need a new wine for the new hour.

Lord, yeaterday's gone, 2day i'm in need, breath on me, sweet spirit of God.

HAPPY 2011 FOLKS.

tiny but mighty

we so quickly complain about the so many ills of our soceity. we look around every day just to pick out one bad thing or another about the soceity, government, money and civilisation. truth is there are two sides to a coin, always; so for every negative thing around, there is a corresponding  positive side. 

i write like this because i just stumbled on a website www.jesusownkids. its a site showcasing different bible stories for children; a very colorful site and an enriching and inspirirng one. with the ills of the internet ; the porn sites and the likes, who would have believed a site like this could exist.

the internet is full of jargons but so is it full of edifying stuffs. 

what am i saying, for every negative 'whatever', there is a positive 'something'. we should learn to look at the bright side of every situation and no matter how decayed a system is, we should try to contribute positively.

people think the little they do wont count, but a little here, a little there becomes much afterall little drops of water make a mighty ocean.

your contibution could be tiny today, but it could grow to become a mighty stream tomorrow. So go ahead, speak that truth, forget that compromise, dont give that bribe, use the waste bins, contibute your better quota.

He made one man, Adam; today it is over 6billion people. tiny could grow to mighty. 

lets never despise the days of little beginnings! 

hurdles and hassles.

they happen anytime. it could be water spilling at the wrong time, or your pen falling at the wrong time. it could light going off at the wrong time or your system acting up when you have a deadline.

i have not written for a while and then i finally will myself to write today. the snare got broken and i escaped and i was feeling great one more time. i began writing only for me to see a blank page before me. i was lost, and i thought i was dreaming. i wasnt. i had mistakenly clicked on a key on my keyboard and everything i had typed, (infact i was putting the last fullstop) just disapeared.

hmn, i just had to encourage myself. this is where the difficulty lies; we get easily discouraged. but what do we gain when we just live things the way they have become when we will gain more if we make change for the better. here i am writing all over again, and without a script. of course i cant get word for word what i earlier wrote but i'm trying to re-write it.

i believe this is one of the reasons why some things happen to us, so that we can change and be changed; so that we can learn and teach; so that we can grow.

my earlier message in a nutshell before my page went blank before me in broad day light was this: i went off for a while, not written i like 6 months because of 'things' that were happening around me and to me. i got distracted, carried away and depressed. my husband always said to me: "dont allow things happening around you stop you from being productive, look beyond and press on". i didnt get it then, but now i get it. wish i had then!

we are mediocres when we dont take responsibilities for our mistakes and failures. we are failures when we dont accept change and correction. we rot away when we wait for time and keep needing time to do what we have to do. but we are assets and legends when we toil and work and impact.

i have learnt to be productive not sometimes, but always. i've learnt that i can only say maturity has met me when i can press on despite the hassles and hurdles and not just switch off in the face of challenges.

hurdles and hassles are part of life. how we handle them is the issue. we either ignore them and press on, or we acknowledge them and become stale and sour.

if last week, a blind man could come all the way from Lagos to Portharcourt to my church to sing and play the piano then i am inexcusable.

we all are inexcusable despite our hassles and hussles; this is my point!

we can try and improve and press on. this is the gospel truth!

MELODY IN MY HEART!

there's a melody in my heart.it's been there since i got two good news today. lets go.....!

i and a friend got a job that we thought we wouldnt n couldnt get.i'm encouraged that the days of little beginnings are never to be despised.we began in our little ways n we are getting bigger. i want you to know that progress is inevitable when you start and you dont stop.

i saw a very distant in-law of mine who has been married for 8 years and without a child. i did not only see her, but i saw her pregnant. WOW! u can imagine how i feel. i'm encouraged that God answers prayers, that He makes all things beautiful in His time.i'm also grateful to God for all He keeps doing and for what He will yet do. indeed Lord, You make my life SO BEAUTIFUL, but, MORE OF YOU LORD, bless me indeed!
