Furnace of Iron

In the crucible of life, change acts as a furnace of iron, relentlessly shaping and refining our journey. Just as iron transforms in the furnace, we evolve through the endings and beginnings that punctuate our existence.

The Bible tells the story of Job, a righteous and wealthy man who faces a series of devastating trials orchestrated by Satan. In the end, According to Job 42: 12-17, God restores Job’s fortunes and blesses him with greater prosperity than before, highlighting Job’s unwavering faith and resilience throughout his trials.

In the furnace’s fiery glow, 

iron’s tale unfolds,

leaving me exposed and vulnerable,

ye my spirit rising higher.

Embracing the heat of the flames, 

with courage in my heart.

I emerge refined,

In a faith that will never tire.

For in the depths of suffering’s night,

shines the beacon of divine light.

I’ll face each new beginning,

with triumph in my heart.

Seeds in The Wind

In the past, I battled with thoughts of negativity and self-doubt, allowing these seeds to take root and flourish in my life. But now, I often reflect to ensure that I am sowing seeds of love, compassion, and faith. Sowing seeds with intention holds immense significance. Just as a farmer carefully selects the best seeds for planting, we must be intentional about the thoughts, words, and actions we cultivate in our lives.

Like dandelion fluff in the breeze,
Seeds of gloom dance with me,
Sown by hands unseen,
In my heart, I sowed the dark seeds.

With every gust, a prayer takes flight.
Guided by stars in the darkest night,
Across mountains high and valleys low,
Seeds of grace I seek.

For what I sow, I shall surely reap,
In the harvest of faith, our souls will keep.
For in the journey of faith, we find,
That we are but seeds in the wind.

In the book of Galatians 6: 7-9 it is written: “Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, this he will also reap. For the one who sows to his own flesh will from the flesh reap corruption, but the one who sows to the Spirit will from the Spirit reap eternal life.”

The Rain’s Lullaby

We have been experiencing rain showers that brought relief from the scorching heat and a sense of wonder and gratitude. It comes with the gentle pitter-patter on leaves, the rhythmic drumming on rooftops, and the melodic symphony on the windowpane. Whether in a gentle rain shower or a fierce storm, they all leave their mark on the world.

A lullaby to fill the air;
With every drop forms
a song of beauty rumbling in the distance.
Falling with varying intensity,
dancing on the river
with a rhythm of joy and laughter.
The raindrops fall like a serene melody
Melting away all worries and cares.
Drenched in the rain,
to listen to the song of life,
Soothing my soul with its peaceful murmur.

Rainfall brings with it a sense of renewal, both for the Earth and for our spirits. So, the next time you find yourself caught in a rain shower, take a moment to soak in the magic of the moment and appreciate the beauty of nature’s symphony❣️

A Day In The Life

Every day of my life, I live, love, laugh…..

A Day in the Life of me Is never a day to regret,

But to change things I can change, do my best to achieve a better result each day.

A Day in the Life of a person is one to get to know yourself better much more than anyone else.

A Day in the Life of me as a writer is one to write my thoughts down to express my joy, sadness, and search my thoughts that the inner spirit wants to share with the world. I can’t help but be myself, I have no restraints in sharing my thoughts and feelings. Sometimes I don’t even know but I find out later that I have always known what is standing right in front of me but just for me to embrace it.

Is it possible to live each day as if it’s the last you will ever live? Unfortunately, we don’t because we live for the future forgetting we should live and enjoy today as much as we can.

When The Senior Pastor Singles Me Out

When the senior pastor of my church singles me out of the whole congregation of a church to have a word or two with me, what does that mean?

Does that mean God has a mission for me?

Does it mean I’m not spiritual enough?

Do I look unique or bizarre?

Or I’m doing something wrong?

Maybe there is something I ought to be doing but I’m not.

Actually I’m still waiting for the call, I had to write out my mobile number to be called and I sincerely hope It’s for good because that really got me nervous and still in same mode. I hope I get called soon so that I can get over with the anxiety feeling that has covered me like tight clothing.

What If the senior pastor tells me that I have a calling to be a minister or a worker in the church…hmm…that sounds scary even for me. Precisely has anyone done anything for God in any way to please him?

As for me, close to seven years ago I used to be a worker in my former church cleaning the toilets and church area for free, I did it because I had a burden to do so, definitely not for any other reason than that and I would love to do same thing any time my spirit tells me to.

Note that there are benefits of working for God, you might not see it soon enough but with time the blessings run after you when you least expect it.

Lets wait and see…
