EVERY SCARS HAS A STORY

“Truly, your scars has a story but what would it be?. This is the question Gbemisola asked the congregation as she was preaching to them. These were women who had been abused, came from broken homes, had heartbreaks, Health issues, etc. And some are still struggling with them.

She asked the congregation again, and they were all silent. She touched the voice of their minds by asking such question because they are women whose scar has dictated how they should live their lives. They do not even know they are anymore because they were ruled by the mentality of their scars.

Gbemisola broke the silence by saying, “Every scars has a story, what would yours tell?. What will become of the scars”. She continued. “I want the scars to tell of how you have overcomed, of how you made it through, of where you have come from.

I want your scars to whisper about the pain you failed, about this very hard time, about the marathon you raced”. She was not through talking before half of the congregation weeped seriously.

Gbemisola spoke out of experience because she had been there and she knows how it feels. She advised them to let their scars be an evidence that there is a loving lord, who fought their scary battles and on whose wings they soared. The tears could not stop but she continued with her words. Let your scars proclaim that all things work for good, that they can not do it themselves but by God's grace. Let them take a look, let them see that your scars shows God is great. Let it points to Him and not you.

As she rounded up, she smiled to them and said, “Beautiful, excellent and wonderful women, mostly I want your scars to speak of something greater. I want it to shout about the living creator. Then she prayed with them and she dropped the microphone. As she stepped down, everyone stood up and celebrated her for the impactful words and she honoured and blessed them.

Do not be ashamed of your scars, *IT HAS A GREATER STORY TO SAY THAN THE WAY YOU SEE IT.* .I love you all!!!.

DON'T BE FRUSTRATED

Many at times, you don't look like what you are going through  Because you have tried the mastery skills of hiding and managing situations and have gotten used to it  Many at times, you wonder why people who has done the worst things ever, still get more favour than you doing the right thing  Many at times, Guys has played you even the believers and you kept wondering if the fault is from you because you are not just getting it right in relationships  Sometimes, you always try to understand the situation but the truth is, you are tired of it and most time you find it hard to let go and forget the situation. Sometimes, you just want to follow the crowd but you realize in between that you got lost and can't just proceed with the plan.. I know things can be difficult  I know many people or various things are frustrating  I know it's not easy living in circles with no progression I know you have plans but it just doesn't go the right way  So dear sisters, ...

GOD SLOWS YOU DOWN

​ Sometimes God slows you down so He can show you what you were too busy to notice.  There was a season in my life when everything felt like it was moving backwards. Plans that once flowed easily began to stumble. Doors I thought would open effortlessly suddenly became heavy. I kept asking, “God, why are You slowing me down when I’m finally ready to run?” But the more I struggled to push forward, the more life insisted that I pause. And in that stillness,  the one I didn’t choose  I started to see what I had been too busy to notice. I noticed the habits that were draining my strength. I noticed the people who clapped for me publicly but resented me privately. I noticed the warning signs I had ignored because I was too focused on getting ahead. I noticed me, the me I had been neglecting. God wasn’t punishing me. He was protecting me. He was whispering, “Slow down. Let Me show you what you missed.” And what I saw in that pause changed everything.  Sometimes the slowdow...
