Sometimes we weep,
Drenching our pillows just before we fall asleep,
Our bed room walls can testify, if only they could speak
No it wasn't pain
Neither was it guilt
It was TRUTH in all His elements
Lovingly came with whips
And every lash was pretty deep,
Came with so much light
Exposing all the dark corners
There was no escape!
And that act of mercy is needful many times,
It reminds me of a mountain top rain
Where there was no shield
Nor a single place to hide
As it fell it washed up all things from top to bottom. Lovingly still

-

Living, loving and dreaming
Forgiving then healing,
Giving second even third chances like I was given
Shining my light, salting the earth
Just as am helped by The Helper

-

I'm stuck between writing and sleeping tonight
And my heart is a bit heavy
My head filled with thoughts
Feelings so mixed and undecided
The world is only" human"
Forgive,
Heal,
Give chances,
Show kindness,
Live again and again,
Expect less,
Give more!
You know these things,
Still don't allow how you feel trump what you know
Or better still what you think you know😶

Seasons I believe come and go! While it looks like one is longer than the other, it's all a working of purpose. God's overall plan..... What season are you in???

-

A loud roar of thunder

Is that you June

Drama queen

Announcing her very presence

Ko ni ile gbo

Ko so fun t'oko

Well, welcome

We know and not only hope

Coz we are of the tribe

Whose confidence is not of the things seen

It's rather of a persuasion

And faith, and hope that is surreal

Not just a disappointing fantasy

That you'd speak better and be better

All the 30 days long

So, welcome

Ayo a dele wa...... A prayer of hope and faith. We all lay in wait for a visitor that must abide in our abode. Joy we all sought for. In whatever form whether a child or a new house, a job, a wife or an husband. We lay in wait! Even in the choices we make, we just really hope for Joy in the end. Well i'd say Joy is not in all of that. Joy is the presence of a person. The "MAN" Jesus! Died, was buried now resurrected! Now our LORD in whom we have all the Joy there is now and then, in the world to come🙏🏽😇

I'm a stranger in "this place" trying to find her way
They say this place is "life"
Well, i guess it comes with knives
Knives so sharp as sand that i'm afraid
I'm afraid i'd give in one of this days
To the prevailing currents of the waves
For they say purpose is important as birth itself
Ever since have i sought mine
Then my Father makes it the roof and floor of every conversation
Since then did i begin to ponder
How do i begin?
Where do i go from here?
How do i survive "this place"
For more than once i have seen how life defeated people
Brought them to their knees and bowed their heads
She! Life strangled their dreams and dashed their hopes
Leaving them be bosom friends with unbelief, doubt and weariness
The sight of life horrifies i confess
As i set out for my course i remember Father said to me once "A miracle can happen if you ask"
"PRAY FOR ME"

#ReduceUsToLove(Part2)
And have made insignificant the major
Little wonder we have become too violent and reckless, without conscience nor empathy
We have all joined the trend of those alien nature! We are now striving to find "our place"
Trying to fit into a place we have dominion over
Who has presented us another reality
Who has bewitched us so!
Can we ever come to that place of one believe, one confession, one faith
Why have we become this loveless! Why have we become this cold?
Why have we soon forgotten who begat us!
I write not to condemn for i myself is as guilty i only write to persuade us to LOVE again

#ReduceUsToLove(Part1)
From a corner in my heart
From the sight of my mind's heavy eye do i scribble down these words
Words from streams of painfully selected concerns
From well pondered thoughts
Today it's this! Tomorrow it's that
How long would we be tossed!
I thought we all should be friends
I thought we all should be binded in one big embrace
I used to think we all were so inseparable!
I also thought we all were the very source of this agape
You know the very big family back in the days of the old
Those ones who sold all they owned and dwelt together
I thought we were all supposed to shine
And live the anti-natural life (by this i mean living as transformed beings as against our senses)
What suddenly happened! Howbeit that our cultures are now so inconsistent with that of the ancient men
Why do we brag so much on the accumulation of nothingness
How come we are so encumbered with the "minors"

Tonight my heart yearns for "SOMETHING ELSE"
For Something else is a person i once touched
Then, He came and He gave Love
The way i had never seen
The love kind and gentle
The love where am bare and naked
He gave again and again
The Love that welcomes my wretchedness but seeks to birth newness each time
The Love that embraces me as much as He is willing to rebuke me yet all for love sake
The kind of love that pursues me and lightens my eyes to see light even when darkness is all i am
Yet Love promises a future of pure light
The Love where i do not feel the need to fight for reciprocation
The kind where there is no lobbying to be seen, heard or known
Coz my heartbeat does Love know beat by beat
The love that spots my tears just before they form
The Love that knows how i ache and rubs His soothing balm
The Love that sees my many imperfections and still whispers "Come Child"
And so tonight i do not shy away,
Your beloved says in return "Here i am my Love"
