We are all thirsty

"Come to the water,
you who thirst and
you'll thirst no more"

-Tenth Avenue North


We are all thirsty...
We all want something more; a better job, more money, better grades, better quality of lives, finer clothes, better shoes, better partners, better children, better cars, better houses, better churches..the list is endless.

Now let me personalise this: I want to be more productive, have a better job, more money, a better house: more like my own crib, better clothes, better shoes, better weaves, better gadgets, better er..erm..body, yes..more books, better jewelry...the list is endless I could go on and on.

Life lately

Hello everyone,

How has life been? My own answer in one word, would be 'hectic'

I can't even understand why growing up seemed to be so much fun to us as kids, being an adult isn't all its made out to be, and paying your own bills and being responsible for yourself isn't fun at all.

We all get to that point where we get soo busy with life and neglect the things that are needful, and making time out for family, friends and other seemingly mundane things seem to be a chore because all that matters is the paper chase. And I'm not even exonerating myself. God help us all

Take me to the King - Tamela Mann

This song ended 2013 for me and ushered me into the new year, so I decided to post the lyrics here. I hope it inspires you too!

"Take Me To The King"

[Chorus:]
Take me to the King
I don't have much to bring

It's my offering
Take me to the King

[Verse 1:]
Truth is I'm tired
Options are few
I'm trying to pray
But where are you?

The one who was, who is and who is to come

How can you not believe? How can you look at the grey sky splattered with a million stars at night and not understand?

The more I study, the more I realize that Jesus could have been just another nice guy with good intentions, The more I observe the patterns of this world, the more I understand you and your views about the non-existence of God. I understand you Thomas I really do.

Thomas, I look at the sky when the sun sets and I see the birds fly back home, a dozen or more of them fly back home in a perfect triangle formation. I wonder about the choreographer that gave them that perfect formation. Have you ever

Amanda took in the sight before her, not that it was a new one but it was a respite from the white and different shades of blue that characterized the pediatric ward and the smell of drugs she had so gotten used to the past few years. As she stared out the window, she still remembered with surprising accuracy the events that led her to this point.

It was four years ago, and she had a picture perfect life, loving husband and a healthy four year old son, they had been trying for another baby as soon as Poju her son had clocked two, all to no avail.

In the company of me

In the company of me, iThink, iGrow, iBuild.

I re-build the broken walls, I weld the shattered pieces of Armour, I mend the torn garments, I treat the broken bones and clean up the wounds from the battle field.

In the company of me, I re-strategize because times and seasons change, paradigms shift, and decisions have to be made at every point in time...

The voice on the inside

They say: time and tide waits for no man,

They also say; slow and steady wins the race

The say: out of sight is out of mind

They also say: distance makes the heart fonder

They say: cut your coat according to your size,

They also say: think outside the box
