SHADOW
It started with a walk home one evening. The sun was almost gone, leaving the streets painted in that soft, in-between light that comes before night fully arrives. She had her earphones in, half-listening to a song she’d played too many times before. Her thoughts were louder anyway. It had been a long week, one…

Be Still
There are moments in life when silence feels unbearable. You sit in your room, staring at your ceiling, and your mind won’t stop running. You’re replaying conversations, worrying about tomorrow, wondering when God will finally answer that prayer you’ve prayed a hundred times. And then, almost unexpectedly, a verse comes to mind: “Be still, and…

Behind the smile
She always smiled.At work, in church, at family gatherings the smile was always there, perfectly worn like her favorite scarf. It was warm, inviting, and constant. You wouldn’t know she hadn’t slept well the night before. Or that she cried in the car before entering the building. You wouldn’t know she’d battled anxiety in silence…

What’s Next?
There’s something no one really talks about, the silence after the noise, the stillness after a season changes, the question that shows up when the dust settles: What’s next? It doesn’t always come with a dramatic moment. Sometimes, it comes quietly. After you’ve graduated and the gown is packed away. After you’ve landed the job…

The Act of Love
Love, Love, Love, a beautiful feeling and a powerful tool to win, yet useless when invisible. Love fulfills its purpose when it’s been expressed, seen, and felt. To love is to be forgiving, patient, kind, tolerant, trusting, caring, enduring, and sacrificing. It is a season of love and one thing I am aware of is that…

The Process Called: Waiting
Have you ever ordered an expensive item with your life savings online, and it will take a few days before the package will be delivered? How do you feel? You feel eager, right? That same eagerness you feel while waiting for your package is the same or more you feel while waiting on God’s promises.…

Can God Hear Me?
Earlier this year, I was deeply worried about a few long-time prayer points that are yet to be answered. This might be unimaginable as the young lady that I am but that is the reality of the the situation. Not everyone might get to relate to this because there might be superheroes with perfect lifestyles…

GOD IS IN CONTROL
Are you despaired, unsettled, or worried? Is there something you have made all efforts on and it is not yielding fruit? In other words, you have spent time and resources needed, yet all was futile. Perhaps, there are moments you were broken and could not figure a way out since your expectations were not met…

CLIMBING
Have you ever been in a situation where you had to climb 80 stairs before getting to your destination like I did to attend my departmental lectures which might later be canceled? When we talk about climbing, it has to do with a movement from a lower level to a higher level through a medium.…

My Rest
A lot of things going on here and there. Where should I start? what should I do? Who should I speak with? How should go about it? With different instructors, different directors, diverse directories, and just me. Looked up and down, going right and left with the assumption that I am almost there but it…

Worth dying for
Just like yesterday, we were all excited sending texts, calling loved ones, saying words of prayers, and writing expectations about the new year 2023. However, let’s do a throwback to 2022; for those of us in which things went as planned, how accomplished did you do it? You have to orient us in the comment…

Rebirth
Never compare yourself or say to yourself “my life is worthless” or “my life is meaningless”. Yes, I agreed some situations occur simultaneously; every sector of your loved ones makes you feel “we don’t need you, you are not making a point, please can you just be quiet for a few minutes?, you can’t even…

FORGIVING
Have you tried defending your humility in a situation where you took responsibility for a thing you were not responsible for and got humiliated? Who hasn’t been hurt by the actions or words of another? Perhaps a parent constantly criticized you growing up, a colleague sabotaged a project or your partner had an affair. Or…

MOTIVE
Merriam Webster defined “Motive” as a desire that cause a person to act. Motives are things that drive each person to live, do better in school, a job, marriage and maybe eat better for a healthier life. Once upon a time, one of my motives for attending lectures, doing assignments and participating fully is to…

What’s leading you?
Have you ever start up something and feel discouraged at a point?Have you ever had this feeling of being left out in the midst of multitudes?Have you ever blamed yourself for mistakes ignorance made you commit?Have you ever asked yourself the question “why am I doing this(purpose)? Life’s events have a way of forcing you…

His Presence
Watching superhero’s movies while growing up was part of our childhood fantasy.Do you remember those scenes where some people are about to experience a tragic event and suddenly, a Superman or Batman will appear from nowhere and save everyone?Have you ever imagined if he did not appear? Oh no! You mean those people will die😩😩.…

Walking in Reality
“Life is full of so many fun and exciting things to do. I can’t wait to do this and that tomorrow evening, it will be awesome! Oh I’m just dying to see the latest movie next. Saturday night – and of course there are so many entertaining things to do that makes me feel so…

Stop Fading
Its not funny when one says “Am not a leadership type”. Hello, can I tell you something? You are a Born Leader. Irrespective of your birth position in the family, you’re a leader. What makes you think leadership is not your thing is having a mindset of unreadiness. You’re not ready to take any responsibility.…

The Beginning
By now,your new year resolution should have reached its limit😄. I am very sure most of you have written a lot. Last year, when I was about to write my 2021 expectations, lo and behold, its pages were enough to be published. For some of us that couldn’t write anything, that doesn’t mean we don’t…

NEWNESS
There is something beautifully sacred about the idea of “newness.” It carries a sense of hope, of fresh beginnings, of wiping the slate clean and starting again. Life, in all its seasons and complexities, constantly offers us the chance to embrace newness. Newness is not limited to a new year or a birthday. It is…
