Falling in Love
I wake up thinking about Your love for me. I wake up trying to understand why You love me still. My mind often cannot comprehend, and words fail me when I try my hardest. At this crossroad of WHAT IS and HOW COULD THIS BE, I turn to song. With each chord strummed, I fall […]

When it clicks…
As I went about my day and was winding down at work, I got restless with the noise of the world around me (this happens often – the world is a noisy place), and just wanted to retreat into a place where my soul could be edified with the words of Truth, with a focus […]

Rejection
Written by: Amarachi Silverline Offor & Iyanuoluwa Akinrinola Let me ask you a few questions to start. Have you ever heard the word “No”? Have you ever felt worthless? Have you ever put so much effort into a thing Only to watch it blow-up in your face? Have you ever written or answered […]

Not Comfortable
Think about this for a second… Maybe take a minute… Possibly even more than that… I have been pondering this all year. Now, we know that “Faith is the evidence of things not yet seen, and the assurance of things hoped for” (Hebrews 11:1), but what does that even mean? What does it mean to […]

Trusting The Process
“Be still and know that I am God” (Psalm 46:10, KJV) She saw it boldly written. The other words seemed faint as she glanced through her bible. She had flipped through the pages continuously and that was the only verse that she caught sight of. She threw her bible to the floor and went down […]

ON FIRE: Aflame for God
Inspired by Aflame for God, by Smith Wigglesworth By desensitizing people to miracles, to divine manifestations, and to divine works, we as a people desire less of the works -calling them theatrics-, and focus more on the materialistic prosperity – calling them blessings- as signs of God’s involvement. Nothing stops us from raising the dead […]

Abandon
What are you afraid of? What keeps you up at night? Honestly, I have been scared. Scared, without realizing that I am afraid. Scared, with no certainty of what I am scared of. Scared, of the unknown. Scared, of what is to come. Often times, we say the right things, have the right answers, read […]

Conformity vs. Transformation
…Sometimes, to better understand where you are going, you need to look back on where you are coming from… Often times I forget the bondage from which I was freed. The bondage masked under pleasure. The bondage masked under ‘societal norm’. The bondage masked under capitalism. The bondage masked under liberalism. The bondage which by […]

The Future Depends on it.
Transitioning between 2 activities in class… Student: Miss can I make a comment?. Me: Sure. Student: I don’t know if I should. Me: Ok, then we can move on. Student: Ok, I’ll say it. Me: Go ahead. Other Students: Don’t do it. Me: (in my head – ok I’m amused or should I be […]

Quotes – Uniquely You
“Be Yourself, Everyone Else Is Already Taken” – Oscar Wilde “Nobody Can Make You Feel Inferior Without Your Consent” – Eleanor Roosevelt These quotes were ones I held onto in my life for some time. I remember as a teenager, going through so many changes emotionally, physically, and so much more; I repeated these […]

On The Hill
“On the hill far away, stood an old rugged Cross, the emblem of suffering and shame…” (Bennard, 1913). On the hill, on that Cross, was where the battle for my life was won. On the hill, on that Cross, was where my victory was taken back for me. On the hill, on that Cross, was where […]

THE WORD
The Word started it all, sustains it all, and will settle it all. The Word is the beginning, middle, and end. I was meditating on the Book of John, particularly John chapter 1. As I read this passage, taking the time to read, meditate on, and listen to each verse, I kept thinking of Genesis […]

My Battle Plan
How often do I let what I am doing for God take up the time that I am meant to spend with God? I woke up this morning excited to check out my site, to write, to see if there was any feedback left on the writings I had shared, to continue in this area […]

If I could be Jealous
If I could be jealous of anything in this life, I would be jealous of those who came to God (through Christ) early. The pain, loss, misunderstandings, heartbreaks, and wasted time that I could have avoided. All the wasted efforts and trivial pursuits that could have been avoided. Oh boy. I would not be jealous […]

That FOUR LETTER word
“And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love” (1 Corinthians 13:13). Love… We say it, we think we know it, we give it, and we hope to experience it as we go about our day to day life. Love… That four letter word that seems to be […]
