                                        Faith It Mark 11:24 ''For this reason I am telling you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe (trust and be confident) that it is granted to you, and you will get it {Amplified bible version).  Sharon went into the hospital to see her mum. Mum! Sharon called. You are leaving this place today! I don't know how but you will follow me home! The nurses rushed into the ward hearing her strident voice which was really strange of Sharon.The doctor called her into his office and calmed her down. ''I know you can be depressed, just be calm. This isn't easy but it will pass one day, we are doing our best''. It will pass today, Sharon said. Just as the doctor continued to speak to her, her  mum walked into the office calmer than the ferocious way. The nurses and guards were alert. Sharon stood up to hug her and she hugged her back. This hasn't happened in years. The very first time she hugged her mum since the i
     Faith It Faith is the substance of things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.{Hebrews 11:1} . This we know and how do we act. Sharon played a very vital role in church as the Choir Coordinator. She was also the one in charge of teenage outreaches. A remarkable lady she was and everyone loved her. Sharon is the example of a woman who works in the vineyard with the whole of her heart but Sharon has something she couldn't tell anyone. She had an ailing mother.  A woman who was mentally ill and has been in the hospital for over 2 Years now. She's been praying and asking the lord to touch her mum. No one knew what she was going through because her countenance and zeal didn't permit any deep scrutiny. One day, as she was in service, the pastor said, You cannot be sincerely involved in the business of God and God won't be ready to attend to your affairs. Like a sharp sword, it cut through the veins of Sharon. After the service, she went on her knees and praye
        Those Kinda Imaginations As christians it's our duty, responsibility and adequate field to pray but there is this funny thing that happens when we pray. Let me share this with you. So, I stroke down my prayer time and prayer points which I planned to get on it one Tuesday evening. I was 'gingered' in my heart and I was really looking forward to that time. Though I had a stressful time at work but I was determined that nothing will deter me from praying. After a very light meal, and a bathe, I took my bible and got on my knees and as I started singing, my mind started wandering. I just couldn't place why my heart was playing back to the events of the day. I shoved the thoughts off and intensified my singing, and ventured into prayers. As I started praying, the thoughts came back. In fact, most of the things I forgot to do started playing into the heart. I didn't know when the thoughts clouded my mind so deeply that I couldn't concentrate anymore and
      Dear Sister Z ,                             Don't Cover It Up There are so many times you come complaining about how you have been treated by men. You complain that they show fake love. You complain that you just don't know what the problem is. Good men aren't coming for you. Have you ever discussed with yourself? Try to have a moment of deep epiphany. You are the same sister who doesn't talk but screams. You don't even know what it means to whisper. You nag from here to Jerusalem and back. You gossip about everyone and complain about almost everything. You dress well, use good makeup but your character is faulty. Even little children find it hard to relate with you because you are always cranky. How will good men come for you? You should ask yourself some evaluating questions. If your friends were to describe you, how will they describe you? You talk to strangers anyhow and look down on people in a terrible way, what if you have showed yourself to Mr
 That Air... That Struggle... That Process Have you noticed how fire burning your heart and body gets after a super conference? That week, you will be on top of your game spiritually, You will want to make use of everything around you. The words of the speakers keep you alert every seconds and then after two weeks nothing comes to your brain anymore. A little test comes to prove us and gush! nothing shows up. We can't even remember a dime, we are back to being our old selves. Can I get a witness? who has been in this struggle or still experiencing this struggle?  This is it: It's beyond the excitement. Yeah, It's good to be excited but it's way beyond it. It requires constant meditation just like we do with our jobs, we want to be the best we constantly remind ourselves of where we are headed and how we want to get there. That's the same way we move with the spiritual. Because you had a brilliant conference doesn't mean your life will change automatically
Dear Brother B, As a christian lady, it's sometimes difficult to see those good, calm, spiritual and cultured guys in the church. It looks like, they have all been married away and the rest of the ones left for us are chaffs. It's depressing when I have to talk and talk to Brother B about simple etiquettes. He doesn't know jack. He cannot even relate with what I want all he does is speak about some irrelevant things and when he asks me out and I decline, they will say, I flaunt a lot. Can two walk together except they agree? You know the answer already. We just want excellent men. We want men that are qualified to stand before kings and not ordinary men. Men with panache with the grace of God oozing out of them. It's not too much to ask for? Is it? Some 'spiritual' brothers will come and all they know how to do is speak with saliva dropping off at every conversation. Oh Days! Can we have some sanity? You don't even know how to speak well, this isn't
