Hair Cut
Ever since lock down started, we have been counting down days the boys will finally get to visit the barber shop.
There hair looking so unkempt. Therefore Hubby decided to take on the role of a do it yourself home barber.
The things we have taken for granted😢.
The first time hubby did, it was a teary event because the boys we’re not happy with the outcome .
Now for the second time they pulled it up from where they left it😢
To be honest it was not that bad but it could be better.
As soon as they got the glance of their haircut in the mirror, immediately it was cries of I want my hair back.
Hubby mentioned to them their hair will grow back within the next couple of days.
He also assured them that when the restrictions are lifted they would get to visit the barber shop.
Immediately they walk pass the mirror again after the conversation.
Guess what, the whines of I want my hair back started all over again.
Have you ever been there?
In situations where you encourage yourself with the word of God even though the conditions around you are saying contrarily.
And as soon you as you walk pass the mirror you are back again to your old self of letdown and worry.
What symbolizes a mirror that always remind you of the things you are believing God for that is yet to manifest?
You have to conquer it by the word of God.
So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; It shall not return to Me void, But it shall accomplish what I please, And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.”
Isaiah 55:11 NKJV.
Hold on to the word and be rest assured that your answer is here.
God bless you

Telling of the love of God
Happy Easter!
Heart Check
Have you examined your heart recently? Few weeks ago I was at my chruch conference and the man of God was talking about the heart.
And ever since the conference for me I have Continual been scanning, dig deep. What is in my heart?
Have I purposefully or unconsciously harbour Offences, unforgiveness, letdowns, quarrels, disappointments and many more inside my heart that I haven’t dealt with.
Life is a journey and along that journey, we come across so many people, encounter situations that directly or indirectly can shape us.
You know what you have been through and the lessons that life has taught you but the good news is you are still here.
How are you keeping guard of what is in your heart?
Make the effort to heal and be delivered from the pain of the past through the help of the holy spirit and if you need to seek Counseling by all mean, please do.
I am on a journey and so help me God. What about you?

Grateful heart
Happy birthday to me. I was conversing with one of my friends yesterday’s as it was her hubby’s birthday and I caught up on where we left it the last time we communicated and the explanation was God has been faithful.
It’s funny how we worry about the issues then and now they are things of the past. After our conversation Joy-filled my spirit for all the good news she communicated with me, it is absolutely a great testimony.
I am thankful for my path as well, I will not be here if God has not kept me. Through it all I have learnt to trust in Jesus and hold on his word. Even in my unfaithfulness God has been faithful.
Are you grateful?
Cheers to the next year!!!!

Am I ugly?
Someone asked the question am I ugly earlier this morning during a conversation and I just could not get my mind off why the individual mentioned it.
Circumstances occasionally gets us to think about the worst of ourselves Which means justifying every thought that comes through our mind
Have you been in such conditions and even think the reason why the other person is always put together is because they are better than you.
Stop it now as it is a lie of the enemy. Yes, the situation happened but doesn’t mean that it is the end of the world and also doesn’t mean that you should think or say wrong things about yourself.
There is power in your tongue and whatever perceptions you already have bottled up in your mind will always be acceptable reason to justify every bad thing that happen to you.
I have learnt a very long while ago, not to dwell and attach on to the things of the past as they should remain in the past however it is important to get healed from the past so that I can forge ahead to the future.
The Bible says “For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the LORD, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
Jeremiah 29:11 NKJV
If God’s thoughts towards me is good then why do I have to think bad thoughts about myself.
When those emotions pops up remember the word of God towards you can never change so instead of dwelling on the past hold on to God’s word.
Remain Blessed
