Sifia pains!!

Never disobey the promptings of the Holy Spirit. I repeat, never! 😭

You might say; Mimi has come again​ o, what happened this time? 🙄

It was macaroni ní ọ😭... MACARONI!!

You will not blame me, Biko, what happened was that I got home last night and my mum was like "there's food for you in the pot", but I still wanted to chill for my big sis to come back from work, so I didn't serve the food yet.

When she (my big sis) got back, I hurriedly ran to the kitchen to dish my meal, just so she won't have any cause to cheat me.

Now as I was serving it, I heard within; "won't you put the stew on your food?"

Me: Stew?🤔 There's no stew na and mummy couldn't have cooked stew today, she was too busy.

I heard the prompting again but I was in a haste, so I just ignored it and ran out of the kitchen.

I had then started eating my food and I was more than halfway gone when my sis walked into my room and was like "why didn't you put the stew on your food? It would have been sweeter and more enticing".

Me: Is there stew?😱
Her: Yes na, on the working surface, in a white bowl with a red cover.

Me: 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 (rolling on the floor in sifia emotional pains)

Now at this point, I was so pained I didn't have a feel of my mum's stew knowing fully well that it was certainly never going to see the light of the day😭.

This is my story, this is my song. 😖

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...

The Mapped out Plan😌

Happy New Month!! 🎊🎊 Hope it's not too late to say "happy new year" too? Better late than never my dears, I apologize🥺. It's beautiful to write to you again. The most anticipated story I failed to share last year is what I'm about to share right now. So grab a cone of popcorn and enjoy. Actually, be blessed. I grew up with the fantasy of becoming a dentist. Don't ask why. I guess my mind had just created enough images of dentists and seeing myself as one felt angelic. The regular admission process was on and I didn't make it for the University of Lagos' cutoff, but miraculously (or so I thought) the then Ondo State governor; Dr. Olusegun Mimiko had just established the University of Medical Sciences (UNIMED) right in my home town and was open to students for application. My parents were excited. They were hopeful I wasn't going to miss a school year as they felt things were going to work in my favour, being an indigene of the locality,...
