You are Light

Hello Readers,  Okay, so I'm still trying to figure out what to address you guys as (lol) my devoted readers. I sincerely appreciate the encouragement I've received since I started this blog, from both family and friends. You all are the best. Thank you for reading and hearing me out.  Right. So in my last post, I spoke about how I struggled with my identity for a not so long, not so short period of my life. Going over it all, I see why some people would go through identity crisis and come out saying they're gay or bisexual or whatever. I don't blame any of them honestly. With the way society is now... if you don't have God as a solid foundation, you can easily be swayed by the world. In other words, if you don't know your identity, the world will give you an identity.   Sometime last year, I was invited to speak to a set of students during their end of the session party and in the process of the talk, I remember making a statement about peer pressure in the uni...

Who Are You?

An introduction is the first conversation that 'should' happen when engaging with someone for the first time. Yeah I said 'should', because some people like to be spontaneous and beat around the bush before finally telling you who they are. Point is, if you meet someone for the first time, you expect an introduction first from the person. And when you introduce yourself, you try your best to sell yourself. I was in a gathering recently and new members of the gathering were asked to introduce themselves and some people went as far as telling us about their businesses or telling us about what they do in the companies they work in and the services they offer. Recently, I have been intentional about letting people know, when I interact with them, that I'm a child of God. And I don't mean just telling people, "Hi, My name is Ed, I'm a child of God", although I do that sometimes. I'm referring to letting people know who I am even without ...

JUST A PRAYER AWAY

Wow🥰✨️ First off, I would like to say a big THANK YOU to everyone who read my previous post. It was my first post back in a long time. I can't thank you all enough for the love and support. It's been surreal and extremely encouraging.  There were a lot of comments on my last post and I realised that I only addressed one part and I needed to address the other. What am I saying? In my previous post I talked about how I'd been in a place of self deceit and I drifted away from God and at some point, though it took me a while, I was able to retrace my steps back to God. But a question was asked, "Does God Stop Speaking?"  The answer, NO. I'll explain. Take my situation for example. I wrote in my previous post on how I ignored God and his instructions and the more I did that, the more I stopped hearing him instruct me on certain things. He didn't stop speaking, I stopped listening. I used to watch this show on Nickelodeon called Victorious. There were two chara...

REBIRTH: Knowing God's Will

     I know, I know, it's been a while since I was on here. It has been a journey and a long one at that. But now, I'm sure. When I started this blog, I just wanted a platform to share my thoughts on certain issues. I had no idea that God was stirring up something big. I did not even imagine that God was doing anything with it. I just thought I had a brilliant idea and went with the flow. Something I have learnt is that, every idea or inspiration comes from somewhere, either from God(Holy Spirit) or from the Devil. This particular idea, I came to realise, was from God. But because I was not conscious or sensitive to the voice and will of God, I carried out the vision without God's Leading.      Unfortunately, it took years of listening halfway to God's instruction for me to finally realise that this was something inspired by the holy spirit and I needed to do and write as the Holy Spirit wanted and led. So, I became inconsistent and lazy about this blog unt...
