Seasons




It is important to recognize times and seasons. 

Phases and dimensions in your life. 

When you know where one stops and another starts, you will understand why you feel dissatisfied by the same things and place that used to excite you. 

The people. 

The job. 

The friends. 

The house. 

You suddenly begin to feel a disconnect. 

You start to feel like there is more that you should be doing, more that you CAN be doing, more that you OUGHT to be doing. 

Make no mistakes. Your current phase was the answer to your prayers at a certain time. 

But if your plan is to become a medical doctor, you can't expect to be in JSS3 forever. 

You need to move up. 

So that someone can step into their own better phase, (your current phase). 

Some signs will begin to manifest in this season. 

You feel uneasy. 

You feel the urge to pray. 

You feel unfulfilled. 

You feel like you've outgrown. 

You know why? 

Because you are building capacity, and when you have grown bigger than the current container, it's time to move to a bigger one. 

It's not always easy. 

It is often scary. 

It mostly makes no sense to other people but you. 

Sometimes the current phase may seem very comfortable. 

The job may pay well. The people may seem lovely. 

But don't mistake comfort for purpose. 

Don't mistake security for alignment. 

Ask of the Lord.. And He will guide you. 

But you see that dissatisfaction you feel, that prodding that you deserve something deeper, that conviction that you are made for more... 

It is a sign that you are transitioning. 

Prepare. Tarry. Build. And then step into it. 

Have faith. Trust in the God that walked on water. 

And your life will be a testament that God is good. 

It will make sense in MARCH.

Rain is my therapy

Image
  The Rain Means Different Things The downpour of rain means a lot to different people. To some, it's a promise of swamps and floods, of tears and fears. To others, it's a sign of fruitful harvests and bountiful prospects. And for some, it's the perfect excuse to be cozy and curled up indoors. But to me… Rain is my therapy. The feel of the cold breeze that precedes the rain sends happy chills through my body. The sound of raindrops on my roof is rhythmic to my ears—like the joyful drums of victory after a long, hard battle. So I step out into the blissful showers. Each drop reminds me that I am present, grounded in the now, becoming who I am meant to be. The rain washes away my pain and quiets my thoughts. It fills me with hope—that no matter how dry or barren life may seem, there is always a promise of rain... Of showers... Of cool. What does rain signify for you?

I WANT A COOKIE 🍪

Image
  Nothing prepared me for the screech sound that snapped me out of my daydreaming.  I realized that I was walking straight into an oncoming car and the driver had to screech to a halt to avoid crushing me to dust.  “Watch where you are going! You are lucky I wasn't on full speed, these young people”, she grunted as she drove off before she heard my muttered thanks.  I found a place to sit and breathe before continuing my routine daily walk. However this evening was different, I wasn't myself, it felt as though something had yanked out my soul, tied it around my neck and asked me if I wanted a cookie..  Ouu I could really use a cookie right now… arghh..   I shook my head and it brought me back to the present. I had gotten another rejection mail earlier today. It was getting really tiring and with each passing day I think I am slowly inching closer to fading away, because how was I to continue coping with the bills piling up and a stack of rejection emails?...

You Gotta Be Hungry

  You Gotta Be Hungry.  I've always been minimalistic.  No, let me rephrase that. I grew up believing that spending money on certain things were unnecessary, that money should be saved for important occasions or emergency, that expensive things were unnecessary luxury.  It shaped me into believing that I only deserved the bare minimum and that the urge to get something bigger was born out of discontent and greed.  Until recently I re-learned.  I re-learned that I am deserving of good things, even if they are expensive. I've always operated from a place of lack..  Saying that I couldn't get something because it was too expensive or i could do without it, and it came to pass, I never got them.  But now, I've learned to operate from a place of abundance. To speak what I want into existence. Declaring that I'm deserving of it, I want it, and work towards it.  Your mouth is the key to life and death. To lack and abundance. And when we stay in a pl...
