Seek sweetie, Search!



I got to my busstop quite early today, it wasn't so stressful a day, but I felt the need to have something gushed down my throat.

It was smoov!!
I hadn't had it in days, if not weeks.

I suddenly began to behave like an addict battling withdrawal symptoms.

I tried consoling myself with the fact that I'd get to drink enough water on getting home but that still couldn't make up for the fact that Chapman was all I wanted.

So the search began!

I searched everywhere for this drink but I couldn't find.
Each seller kept saying "the drink no dey move for market".

But still, I refused to give up the desire for the drink...until finally, I found it where I never expected I would have.

I rushed it like a pilgrim who had prolly just returned from a sahara journey.

I felt refreshed and my nerves calmed down a bit. Then suddenly, the scripture that says  "And you will seek Me and find Me, when you search for Me with all your heart" popped up in my head.

Apparently, I found that smoov, cos I was searching with all of my heart.
My mind was fixed on nothing more than getting it, and satisfying my thirst.

It's the same with Christ.

The truth is we won't really find him (asin His indepth nature), if we don't search with the whole of our beings. That is to say... If we're not searching with the mindset that we have no other substitute or temporary replacement, he'll be open to us, and pour out all of himself into us.

Be a Christ addict, search and seek him out like you've got no other job doing.

Give him this "I die there" attitude.

The Bible says blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, For they shall be filled.

In conclusion babies, seek, inquire for, and require the Lord while He may be found(claiming him by necessity and by right); and call upon Him while He is near.

Enjoy the weekend.
I love you all 珞❤

What A Journey!

I thought hard and long about what this article should entail. My head failed to come up with a lovely post, but an excellent mind came up with some soothing words. Here is a beautiful piece from a friend and devotee. LOL . I'm sure some of us can relate to its content. Kindly read aloud on your beds, savor each paragraph, and be strengthened. " On your mark Get set Go! These words were not spoken to me before I chose to pick up the baton to run this race. I kept running without looking back, still am. But I haven't stopped to wonder what type of a race this is. I mean, what type of a race validates a fall but rebukes a retreat, at the same time mandates its participants to uplift lagging/dropping mates right on the journey? What type of a race encourages its athletes to run, not for the medal at the finish line but a love for the journey What type of a race mounts up hurdles that limit its athlete's speed but strengthens their zeal ...

Wait on The Lord

How does it feel to be left on 'hold'  by God? Depressing? Fraustrating? Draining? Unproductive? I know just how you feel in case you're there right now.  We're together my dia! I know how useless you feel seeing people you're "better than" making progress. Not because of envy or anything, just that in your heart, you know you ought to be above your current level. You feel you're lagging behind and you have a lot to catch up with. You feel the enemy is after your soul, and the people from your father's side are possibly 'doing you' lol . No, my love. It just might be God telling you to hold on. You might be running too fast and He needs you to slow down. He has a plan for everyone, and in his mapping, there's a place for time.  The Bible makes it clear to us that there's a time to give and a time to refrain from giving. Also, a time to build and a time to sit back, and calculate the cost of building, before executing. For now, you...

Gratitude

I hope I get forgiven for being so far away, yet very close?🥺  A lot has been going on in my head and I promise to share once I can fully comprehend them. But before then, I thought to drop this here, and I hope it helps someone. I Got up to read one of my favourite devotionals this morning but when I saw the topic " Gratitude ", I just felt there really wasn't anything new to learn. Notwithstanding, I read it but definitely didn't study it.  Fast forward to me going about my daily activities with hindrances everywhere.  First, the cooking gas finished just in the middle of preparing breakfast, then many more annoying events occurred. At some point, I got really irritated and angry that I punched hard at a wooden door and flung it open (I still don't know how that door didn't come down, because the force I used on it ehn😂). I had a lot of frustrations that I had been suppressing, and the stuffs going on in the day were not helping matters.  Sadly, I took out...
