Truth

Hi, welcome to my blog. Today is day 25/365 of blogging everyday for a year. If you're new, welcome. And welcome back to the regulars. I would first like to send a S/O to my brother, it's his birthday today. Let's get into it. 

Today was quite a busy day for me. I spent most of my day in the kitchen. In the evening I had some time with the Lord to dissect and feast on the revelation I had during the day. It's is about truth. The world tells us that the truth hurts, but here's here's what the bible says about that, John 8:31-22 " [31]So Jesus said to the Jews who believed him, 'if you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, [32] and you will know the truth and the truth shall set you free'."  

We will know the truth and obtain freedom if we abide in his word and become his disciples, worshipping him in truth and in spirit. The bible says in John 14:6 "Jesus said to him, 'I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me'." On top of that, Jesus died on the cross for us, so that we can be freed from the bondage of sin and have salvation through him. 

This reminds me of the armour of God we talked about a few days ago, Ephesians 6:14 "Stand therefore, having fastened the belt of truth...". Take note that this is the first piece of armour to be mentioned in this scripture. 

My prayer today is that may God help us to be truthful in all aspects of our lives, that we embrace his word and discipleship with him in Jesus name. And remember that truth is not only about not lying with your mouth, but truth is a lifestyle. Check yourself, are you living in truth ? 

Remember to engage, follow, share, and watch out for my next post...
I love you, and Jesus loves you more.

A moment of confusion: story of my life

 Today I would like to talk about something that I have been thinking a lot about lately. This involves someone of the opposite gender. Ever since I have given my life to Christ and actively sought Him, my perspective on romantic relationships has shifted drastically. Here is the story, grab a chair, it's quite long... Let me give the guy the name K. K and I have known each other for about 5 years now. We tried something back when I was in high school. It wasn't really a relationship, but at that time, it was the closest I had to a relationship. This was because was unavailable most of the time because of my strict parents and also because we lived far apart, and could only see each other whenever I got a chance to go to town, which was not very often. So most of our relationship was on the phone, basically, our relationship deepened on the phone.  Things were going smoothly until I lost my phone at school, we didn't communicate for about 3-4 months. I could only contact hi

Happy New Week

Hi, welcome to my blog. Today is day 10/365 of blogging everyday for a year. My life is so boring, I have no idea what I will be blogging about in the next 355 days, but please bear with me, because God is good.  Remember the things I said I am looking forward to in this new month ?, they're currently stagnant. But I have a small amount of hope that things wiI start moving. I haven't left the house since this month started. It's been quite a while since I stepped out of the house, the idea of it kinda scares me now.  I am dedicating more time to reading the Bible and spending time with God, and this 'boring' phase in my life is exactly what I need to focus on myself and my relationship with God. As I mentioned some time ago, I am taking a break from social media(Instagram, TikTok, Facebook), for some time. I have made an exception with YouTube, I will only allow myself 3 videos a week max. This break is going to help me reduce external voices and/or influence in my

Being a student/ learner

 What does it mean to be a student? Is it only going to school and sitting in class? Let me tell you what I think. Being a student is about being teachable and willing to learn new things or to learn old things differently. I believe an old dog can be taught new tricks, no one is ever too old to learn anything. At the end of the day, life is the greatest teacher. So as long as you're still alive, make every day an opportunity to learn something new. There was a point in my life where I felt like everything was going south, I kept asking myself "Why is this happening to me ?" and someone said to me "The question you should be asking is "What can I learn from this ?" That response forever altered my thought pattern and my overall perception of life. This helped me to get out of the victim mindset and actually learn from different situations. The same applies in school if you fail a grade, you will find yourself repeating another year in the same class, with d
