MY CONFIDENCE IS IN GOD

Good day everyone, today is such an amazing day for us all around the world because God is with us and he is helping us in all that we do...today and always! I'm sure you were expecting me to remind you of an annual event on this date...nope! I'm reminding you of God's faithfulness to us each passing day!

How are you doing today?! Thanks for reading, sending in your comments and sharing my posts.

Today, I want to share an excerpt from one of the books I’m currently reading…it really blessed me and I know you will be inspired by it too. Read on and enjoy!

Katie Brown weighs only 95 pounds and she is just a bit over 5 ft tall. She stands a lot taller than that however. Once, she jumped over a 100-foot wall (that’s equivalent to a 10 storey building).
Katie is a ‘difficulty climber’ (all those mountain climbing people) an endeavour in which she is a world champion and multiple gold medalist at the ‘X Games’ which you may have seen televised on networks like ESPN 2.
As you might imagine, it’s intimidating for a small person to attack climbing walls and cliffs that are twenty times her height but Katie says that her extreme faith brings her peace even when facing extremely dangerous challenges.
“I know I couldn’t have done what I’ve done without being a Christian” she explains. “My faith in God doesn’t get rid of my healthy fear or caution when climbing extreme heights but it does help me deal with it. It takes away a lot of the pressure because you know that God’s not going to condemn you if you don’t win. So there’s nothing to worry about. When I see others competing, I wonder how I could compete if I didn’t have faith in God.”
The ‘walls’ you face in your life might not be literal or physical. They might be emotional or in your relationship and it’s okay to feel intimidated or frightened by the walls in your life… but like Katie, you can rest secure on the truth that God will not condemn you if you can’t get to the top of your wall – or if it takes you a hundred attempts. God is more concerned in your faithful consistence…which is built on your confidence in his LOVE for you.
(Culled from The Confident Woman by Joyce Meyer)

Mark 11:22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.

Pro 14:26 In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and his children shall have a place of refuge.

1John 3:21-24
21 Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we confidence toward God.
22 And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
23 And this is his commandment, that we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment.
24 And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.


God is truly on our side; have faith and confidence in Him! Trust Him in all that you do, you’ll be amazed at the inside information He’ll give to you to prosper you in your business.Just ask Him, trust him!


Do have yourself an amazing day!

BE YOURSELF

BE YOU Every once in a while, we come across people who are far away from who they originally are, they have become photocopies, or prototypes and I dare say even counterfeits of themselves…its amazing how one can move away from one’s true self and very quickly too. People have become imitators of others; people they call mentors, celebrities, their parents or siblings, friends and even random individuals, all in the bid to be accepted or something like that. With this beautiful age of social media with Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat etc and reality shows, people have easy and unrestricted access to people’s ‘fake’ lives whether private or public and as you constantly feast on these shows and these profiles in the name of entertainment or keeping up with trends you start to change. You begin to subtly accept and agree with their ways, start to think like them and eventually begin to act like them. It may take a while because it’s a gradual process but it surely will happen and ...

CHANCE OR NOT

Ludo is quite an interesting game for me. I like it because I can think through and be strategic about my moves before making them and I can quickly recover from an opponent’s hard hit and make a comeback. Some say it’s a game of chance that can only be decided by a throw of the dice but then again, life hands us things sometimes that we must make the best out of. So this is my story… I was playing ludo with someone recently and the winner would be decided after five rounds of the game, so I cracked my knuckles, rolled up my sleeves, mentally psyched myself and thought “easy peasy, she can’t even stand my skills; I GAT THIS!!” So we started to play and yours truly was waving her bragging rights high in the sky like a banner for an upcoming election. The game was going in my favour… omo* I was on fire! Move after move, I frustrated all her efforts with my well thought out moves, my skills and years of experience playing the game. The score was now 4:1 and I was on my ...
