23 and Accomplished?

What have I really accomplished? As I laid in bed and flipped through the pages of my thoughts I ended up asking myself, what have I really accomplished in my life?   And for the life of me I couldn’t point out a thing and what started happening was I then began to compare myself with my friends, people around me and I quickly concluded that I haven’t really accomplished anything and if I am going to be honest I really felt like that. I don’t have my college degree yet, I don’t think I know what I want to do with my life, nothing I try seem to be working, I legit feel like nothing is moving, and the worst part I feel like all the dreams that God has placed in me have been drowned with all these thought and fear quickly overwhelmed me. (Note :  don't  ever compare yourself to anyone, you are you and no one else can ever be you. comparison  is the thief  of Joy. Keep your Joy and let nothing steal it, not even you or your thoughts. You are too perfec...

RELIGION VS RELATIONSHIP

Some days ago my friend and I were talking about how some Christians in Nigeria are just so religious that they miss the whole point of this whole Christian race which is Jesus but we talked more about how they because of their ignorance of who really Christ is they knowingly or unknowingly push people away from Jesus. I’ll give an example and I also saw this a lot growing up, and I am pretty sure this still happen because I still hear of it till date. We have some specific Christian in some churches in Nigeria that all they do is condemn people because they believe they are not well groomed enough for Jesus, they are not dressed properly, their skirt is too short, if you are a female and you have trousers (pants) on you can’t come into the church because after all haven’t you read in Deuteronomy that a woman must not wear what belong to a man (when in reality they are reading that verse out of context), you have too much tattoos on you to be worthy of the salvation of Christ, your ma...

My Vows to Jesus

I feel a little uncomfortable sharing this with you all but ehn…. Whatever!! So I have been studying the book of Luke for a while now and I try as much as possible to read a chapter a day and just meditate and listen to God and see what he is saying to me through this book. Well chapter 14 verse 34-35 was very overwhelming but in a good way. Luke 14:34-35 – “Salt is good, but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltiness be restored? 35  It is of no use either for the soil or for the manure pile. It is thrown away. He who has ears to hear, let him hear.” I read an ESV study bible so below each chapter they give more insight to each verses and for verses 34-35 it was “Most salt came from the Dead Sea and contained impurities (carnallite and gypsum). If not processed properly, it would have a poor taste and would worse than useless, being unusable for food and creating a disposal problem. If the conditions of discipleship are not kept, the disciples will become ...
