GRATITUDE JOURNAL

Image
  Gratitude is what draws us closer to God whenever we feel inadequate or underachieved. Often times when we read about other people's achievements or success story, we often compare with ourselves. When we weigh the results or the followership other people or brands are pulling in comparison with ours, we get that feeling of inadequacy or an underachiever feeling which may be compounded by many other negative feeling that accompanies such thoughts process. When we dwell so much on this, it blinds us from seeing what God has done for us; in us and through us. In my opinion, I feel like unhealthy comparison is a demon we all have to deal with especially in this age. The major weapon of fighting this is Gratitude.                                         picture credit: https://parade.com It is so refreshing to sit back and reflect on the goodness of God. Naturally, your mind begin to pour over all the little miracles you might have skipped if you had dwelled on unhealthy comparison.

The Heart Cry Of A Mother(Nation)

Give us a future and a hope Our sons are in rehabilitation centres because of substance abuse. Some are in correctional centres because of rape, gangsterism, murder, and terrible social misbehaviour. Many are running mad after money, so they've taken to the street of Yahoo slaving away in pursuit of mirage. Is there still hope for us? Lord, give us a future and a hope 🙏 That our sons be as plants grown up in their youth! Our daughters have become the sacrifice for rituals. Their body parts is being sold as if it were that of a goat or cow. They've taken to the street of prostitutions in a bid to survive or belong. Our young daughters have lost their innocence because of evil men who defiled them at tender age. The street is no longer safe for our daughters. Is there hope for us? Lord, give us a future and a hope 🙏 That our daughters may be as corner stones, polished after the similitude of a palace. Our store house is empty! There is scarcity and want. We owe so much, Such an

Where Is The Sun?

We made ready to get to our destination as we journey through life. Bon voyage we bid farewell to well wishers. Not long into the journey, the wind blew hard, the storm came strongly. The weather wasn't sorry to unleash its harshness upon us. It was meant to be a smooth sail. After all, we said our prayers of safety. We looked for the sun, it betrayed us! We turned to the stars, it hid itself so that we couldn't see light. For days we traveled in the storm, even in the dark! Lord calm the storm, we plead!! We've heard you can do all things, we've read of your power against the storm. We prayed! So hard! We prayed! We believed, so strongly! He'll come through we hoped! Sigh! Heaven seem silent to our prayers and faith seem to crumble. Why? We questioned...more silence. Questions we can't answer, oh you wish there was an answe

Not a Nurse! - A Story of Identity

Image
PharmDeb On Monday, I decided to appear at work in a white gown my friend had sewn for me since October 2020 which I had never worn. Feeling all ready to take the day, I launched out of my apartment. Half way through my journey, I started hearing someone call at me -"my nurse, my nurse" you're guessing if I responded, right? Lol, I didn't. Ok, it's not what you think, I wasn't trying to snub the person. I didn't answer because I'm not a nurse! On arrival at work, armed with energy for productivity, I got busy with the day. Then my HOD passed a comment about my outfit, saying I looked like a nurse! Wahala for who wear white for hospital . 😂 I thought of this experience and the Holy Spirit drew my attention to something important which I'm about to share with you. It's a question of identity.  You see, they calling me a nurse didn't do me anything because I know who I am by profession, a certified Pharmacist, not a nurse! There are times s

Today I want to take you further on what the kingdom of God is, so that we can seek after God with the right understanding. I pray this piece blesses you as you read to the end (amen). According to the dictionary, Kingdom is described as a realm where God's will is done. It is a realm where God dominates .  Jesus explained the concept of God's kingdom using many parables. Matthew chapter 31 documents some of these parables. Let's examine one of the parables below: Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field: But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way. But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also. So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from

With some, there's really not much to expect.  From my side, the year was welcomed with dancing  (lol, my dancing skills are improving) , worship and declaration.

You are the midwife to help this year birth its potentials.   You can make this year birth all that you desire with God on your side. On the other hand, the foetus the year came with may be aborted. Depending on what you do with this year. I'm sure you don't want this pregnancy aborted. How then can you make the year deliver bounty of positive results. Let's begin with your  PRIORITY .
