And His Love...


Forgive me if you don’t share my views or if you think I sound spiritual or old schoolish. But I have a lot of respect for JESUS.


Before I delve into my ‘long’ article, how are you all doing? Long time. How has life been treating y’all? Guess good.


I’ve not blogged for a while now…Been very very busy honestly. God will help these days.


How was our Easter like? Hope you had a reflective one and reviving too. Easter to me is a time to think about LOVE. It should even be Christian’s VAL period.


It’s a time to think of the LOVE of a father for his children…


The love of a brother (Jesus – heir of the father) for his siblings (us – joint heirs with Christ)…

Love of a friend (Jesus) for his persecutors…


What a dear dear LOVER we have in Jesus.


What do see of what Jesus did for you?


Nailing him again or loving him now?


Building a relationship with him now or rejecting him the more?


Sharing with him or talking at him?


Keeping him in you, with you, by you or keeping him in your “book”?


Think on these things, his love, his sacrifice, his pains, his agonies for you…


Think of his enduring, patient, believing, and loving love.


Think of how he was rejected, deserted, ignored, denied for your sake.

How about the loneliness he had to suffer on the cross and in the grave?


That is love, pure, undiluted, unconditional love…the type that money cannot buy.


And his love is life to the lifeless, hope to the hopeless, peace to the troubled, pure to the unclean and his love is everlasting…And his love is incomparable!


Loving him yet?


Happy Easter in arrears.

Why Did I Get Married?

Image
I really enjoy seeing African-Americans movies, and this particular film is no exception. In fact, I can’t stop watching it and I can’t wait to see ‘Why Did I Get Married too’ . Really, Tyler Perry got me hooked on this one, that after seeing it several times, I was able to sift one or more things from it and I’d like to share them here. Before I share what I learnt, let me give a synopsis of the movie…There are four couples who go on an annual one week vacation – more like a reunion. During this vacation, they reconnect, talk, pray, iron out issues and so on – but this vacation opened up secrets that they’ve all bottled up. Secrets that made them ask such question as ‘Why did I Get Married?’ I’m going to be looking at the couple one after the other… Mike & Sheila (Richard T. Jones & Jill Scott) The problem with this couple is Sheila’s stature. Sheila is on the fat side but Mike just couldn’t live with that! And so he insults her at every opportunity he

...For Mama

I feel since this blog is about relationships, writing about my family, friends, colleagues, etc...and expressing my love for them wouldn't be a crime.  Here's a poem for mama, who'll be a year older tomorrow (15th, September). And this poem is dedicated to all the mamas in the world...with love. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Dearest Mama, I just write to let you know What's on my mind Bringing me to the world with groans I can imagine what it's like For the seeds of love you've sown You're one of a kind For the toughest times you've known It's fresh in my mind For the times I don't listen to you You love me still And the times that I trouble you You keep loving me Oh! and the times that I fell sick You knew no sleep Or the times that I weep You weep and weep And those times that I'm lost You are on your feet Even at times of failures You believe in me Fo

Things That Irritate Me

Image
I get easily irritated at times, and funny the things that irritate me could be classed as trivial - that is, minor. The truth is, once I let them out you might view me as 'duh, why should those irritate you?' but they do anyway. It just goes to show that I'm a unique being *wink wink*. Some months back I sat in a public bus on my way home, then I heard a guy, who sat behind me, make some sound with his mouth - teeth and tongue. The kind some people make when they are trying to remove a left over food or dirt from their teeth. The bad thing is, he didn't stop once, he made the sound till he alighted from the bus. Kai, I was pissed! Still in the same bus, someone was listening to a sport commentary on his phone. He put the phone on speaker and on the highest volume, as if the rest of us were interested in the boring tale. I wonder how he forgot that earphones are made for moments such as those.... How I almost shouted at him. The odd thing was that he hissed at th
