GOD IS CARRYING US
GOD IS CARRYING US One of my greatest joys is being the mother of an absolutely amazing son. It is a privilege and a gift from God that I do not take for granted. And though there is more than fifty years between us, he could not have come at a better time. (I never thought I would say that).

LET THE HOUSE STAND One thing that makes me sad is when siblings or members of a family are at war with each other. There are stories about siblings that have fought each other to the point where all that their beloved parents worked for and left behind for them has been left to waste away while they are busy

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.

It is an opportunity to start afresh with the advantage of hindsight of mistakes and wrong choices. And God

OUR GOD IS A GENEROUS GOD Nobody really wants to befriend or be around stingy or miserly people. In my part of the world, Nigeria, as a whole and particularly in the south western part, all kinds of not very nice terms are used to describe people that are perceived to be miserly in nature. But a generous and open

GOD IS WITH US – EMMANUEL So 2023 is finally coming to an end; and I pray that every thing unpleasant we passed through this year is coming to an end too. Amen. As always, I bring you a word of encouragement today. I know beyond any doubt that somebody will read this and be transformed. So much happened to

PRAISE THE LORD NOW! As we approach the celebration of the birth of our LORD and Saviour, Jesus Christ, which we refer to as Christmas and as the year 2023 comes to a close, let us take time to thank God. Last week, I wrote that there is a likelihood things have not gone as some of us planned this

GOD’S MERCY AND LOVE ARE FOREVER! This morning, I had to drop my son off at school. The journey going from my home is about twenty-five minutes because we have to go make a U-turn up front. The journey back is usually much shorter. It is less than fifteen minutes. As I dropped him off and started heading to work,
