THE HARVEST WILL SURELY COME Late in 2021, I ventured into a gardening business. You see I am a plant lover and I love my green spaces so it was not that big of a deal for me. When I bought my first set of fruit trees my mentor told me it would take about two rains for the trees

GETTING THINGS DONE IN 2024 While doing a study on the book of Nehemiah some time ago, I learnt a few things that I would like to share with us to help us get things done in this New Year 2024. After two return journeys to Israel, by the exiles who had been taken captive to Babylon, Nehemiah was still

GET UP! STAND UP! A few days ago, I was suddenly reminded of a song. Well not the entire song as I have no idea what that sounds like, but it was the chorus that kept coming to my mind. This is not a song that I have ever gone out of my way to play or to listen to.

NEW MERCIES FOR A NEW DAY Happy New Year to one and all!  I pray it will be a truly blessed year for us all. Something struck me recently : and that is the fact that many people love new beginnings.
