WHAT IS IT?... THE DISCOVERY


It’s not a common kind of adoration
It’s unseen yet felt
It’s hidden yet you still see it
It’s promising
It may be intangible
But your belief in it brings you undying hope.

It blooms from the ordinary surface
Right through you innermost being
It’s one of a kind… it’s unique.

It’s genuine, it’s true
It’s priceless, it’s pure
It’s overwhelming, it’s accepting
It desires to know the good
Then accepts the past
By presenting the fact…
That you’re beautiful, and nothing,
Absolutely nothing can ever change that.

It seeks God
It spells the G.O.D. in another
And doesn’t discourse the ‘d.o.g.’ in them (MEN ARE NOT DOGS!)

It’s comforting to the troubled soul
Eases every bit of your mind
It treats as Royalty
Portrays servant leadership- full of loyalty.

The lady waits to be found
She doesn’t display her heart’s contents carelessly, all year round
The man pursues whilst waiting to conquer
He gives the ultimate respect due… that’s proof of what it is...

What is it?

It’s creative
It’s abundant in nature
It believes
It waits, it endures.

Ultimately,
It guards. It protects.
It discerns,
And once it approves in heaven and on earth
Then nothing can stand in its way
The way of outlining a pathway into the beauty of a newly formed life…

This very thing is simply….
LOVE!

THE WHISPERS BEFORE THE SHOUT

Hey you! 😃 Has anyone checked in on you today? Or better still have YOU checked on you today, or lately? If not, well then this is a reminder to do so; to create time in your schedule to hold your heart, mind, body and soul as an offering to God in prayer and allow it to be searched, comforted, and mended so that you can operate wholly and holy. Quarter one of 2025 is coming to an end; a palpable shift hangs in the air with testimonies within it being starkly different. For some, the journey has been a smooth glide, a serene cruise through calm waters. For others, they are overwhelmed by life having launched into a sprint at the beginning of the year; and now, they are finding themselves breathless amidst a landscape of boundless potential. I discovered something interesting lately; while many of us are knowledgeable of the truth and necessity of slowing down, there is a fear and guilt attached to this God ordained activity called rest. We are afraid to rest because we fear that if we...

FLOW OR FLOAT?

A lesson I am learning, the older I grow, is that with discovery comes revelation, and revelation does not always soothe. I believe in the slow burn of human connection, not the fleeting flicker of a sprint. I take my time, extending the same patience and grace to others that I give myself in my own process of self-discovery. Sometimes, curiosity bubbles up, a genuine thirst to understand. Other times, my emotional and mental reserves are low, and I'm simply present, observing. But…intrigue me. Nudge the edges of my world with a spark of genuine interest, and you might just pique my curiosity. A "Hmmmm…who is this person?" moment might dawn, and the spotlight of my attention will shift your way. As we forge new connections in life, we are met with a mirror—not always a flattering one—that shows us how much we have changed, and perhaps, how much we still wish to. In that reflection, we see the vastness of who we are and the contradictions we carry. Self-awareness has unlo...

SERVING ON EAGLE'S WINGS

It’s funny, how much seems to come to life, when you sit back and observe people and things for a while. You never quite get to witness how life unfolds when you’re busy trying to make major ends meet. It’s understandable though, that’s just how the cookie crumbles these days. The hours of the day are filled with “busy bodies”, clogged minds trying to generate ideas while at the same time create solutions for problems that seem to be cropping up quicker than them. Life is a continuous evolution; not much appears to be the same. Though amidst the unending amendments it causes us to make, I still repeatedly find myself asking these questions, who I’m I? Why I’m I here? Where I’m I going? Sometimes I think I have the answer to these questions, though as life unfolds I then realize, only God has the answers. He will continually remind me who I am in Him. Even then, if I fall prey to trying too hard to be someone else, the reflection I get from His mirror of who I am defies all els...
