LOYALTY TO ROYALTY
LOYALTY TO ROYALTY A couple of months ago, the longest reigning monarch of her time, Her Royal Majesty Queen Elizabeth II of England, passed away on the 8th September, 2022. She was laid to rest alongside her husband, Prince Phillip, the Duke of Edinburgh, eleven days later, in the King George VI Memorial Chapel. I pray her soul rests

STAY CONNECTED Last week, on the way to drop my son off at school in the morning, I noticed that a tree which was some distance away from his school had been chopped down. I believe it must have happened after I had picked him up the previous day. The many weaver birds that had built nests and made their

KNOW THAT GOD LOVES YOU Honestly, I cannot get enough of God’s love. It has become my everyday chant. I wake up and the first words I whisper are: “Thank you Abba, for loving me so much.” Automatically it brings a smile to my face. It calms me. It assures me that I am good to go. And then my

GOD SHOULD GO BEFORE US I am slowly coming to the point where I no longer jump and react to every negativity. And that is because there is just too much of it going around so I choose to focus on the good I see or hear or better still I create good scenarios and good memories. This is gradually

LET US MAKE JESUS MARVEL I was pondering on the word “marvel” a little while ago and I decided to check it up. All that kept coming up was marvel studios, marvel movies, marvel comics; generally it was all about the Marvel Television company. That did not satisfy my curiosity so I went off to the dictionaries and found that

LOOK! AND SEE JESUS! Sometime ago, I was feeling out of sorts and generally fatigued, (driving in Lagos, Nigeria will definitely make you that way) when suddenly a passage of scripture kept coming to my mind. It was something about “natural strength not abated.” “Exactly what I need right now; to remain strong”, I thought to myself. So I decided

TIME TO MEDITATE The twenty third psalm is perhaps the most known of all the psalms in the bible. Besides being a short psalm, (though not the shortest) it is also very easy to memorise. My three year-old son has already committed it to memory. It is the psalm that most of us kept open under our pillows in boarding

REST IN HIS LOVE Anything that matters to us matters to our Heavenly Father. And it is perfectly alright for us to talk to him about it. There is so much happening around the world now. Turn on the news; sad and gloomy all day long. Social media is not any better. And people are also dealing with and passing

SEE YOURSELF THROUGH THE EYES OF GOD. 1st Peter 2:9 (New International Version) – “But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” One of my favourite movies of all time is Disney’s “The Lion King.”

JESUS – OUR REFUGE It is no longer news that the Queen of England has died (May her soul rest in peace!) and the new head of the British monarchy is her son, King Charles III. At the Queen’s passing, members of her immediate family were gathered together including her grandson Prince Harry who had relocated to North America with
