OUTSTRETCHED ARM

John 16:33 was one of those scriptures I learnt on my own in my early Christian journey it says; “ These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.”   We are living in a time where everyone is caught up in the hustle and bustle of life and the real essence of creation has been left out. You never chose God but He chose you- you were made to give Him pleasure. If you look around now you’ll find out that the devil has gradually gained ground in the lives of many people today not because they were weak but because they gave in to his schemes and vices… open your heart to God and ask Him to work in and through it. The bible says; “ out of the abundance of the heart flows the issues of life…” everything that happens or things that we do or even choices that we make stems out of the heart.   So, work on your heart… (This ...

All of the active and passive readers thank you so-so much even to my Muslim readers (salvation is going to come someday, I b...

A PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE

A PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE I remember vividly sitting up stage with my very good friend Tosin and another girl in church in front of a crowd of over a hundred and twenty as we spoke on this subject “a purpose driven life”. We were around the ages of eleven and twelve then, I think I was twelve at that time; this subject sounded really ambiguous then but after much teaching and breaking into bits by our teachers we had it at our finger tips. Trust me, the delivery was great. Now, here we are six years later and I’m writing about this same subject-“a purpose driven life”. Personally, this is one of those topics I learnt in church in my early years that established a latent cognitive domain of its own in my brain. So, what’s that one thing you learnt early while growing up that stuck with you? (While you are at it let us get right into the subject). What is A PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE? The caption explicitly explains the whole subject; it is a life driven by purpose-simpl...
