TRAPPED


"Tope, I am not who I used to be anymore. This is not me buuuttt I can't figure out what's going on" Busayo said as she looks worried

"Busy (short form of Busayo) I also noticed and I have been trying to figure out what is going on with you, so tell me? Tope said as she drops her pen and concentrated on her

"Toppy (another form of Tope), I think i am in a short of trap This isn't what I signed in for. I think I am about to be choked. I don't even have breathing space. I don't know who I am anymore. I am loosing myself. I am......Tope cut in...

"Aunty, what is all this? Be clear with your points. I know you are all that but what exactly is wrong? Tope

"I...don't know. All I know is I am not emotionally okay and I feel I can't go on anymore. All the things I planned for are not coming through. Plus, it seems God has forgotten me because everything is not how it ought to be. I think I am left alone now" Busayo said 

"Busayo! You are trapped emotional and you allow those thought to decide how you live your life. It's okay to be emotional down but emotional trapped means you are controlled by your emotional and its because you allow your emotions governs you.

Now, you think God is not in an hurry or He is too slow just because of how engrossed your thought have helped you see the matter but  God is not in an hurry. You are the one in an hurry All you need is faith and not emotions" Tope said

"Hmmm..." Bussy said as she nodded

My dear sisters,
When you choose to follow God and his instructions. Emotions is not enough. Your faith is more important.

God is not in an hurry, it's you that is always in an hurry. Just became things are not coming through now doesn't mean it won't.

Some people are trapped emotionally because they allow it governs them. You might be in pain now, facing some challenges, etc but never follow God with emotion. Follow Him in Faith.

Abraham in the bible wasn't happy when God said he should sacrifice his child after waiting for so long but he never allowed his emotion lead him but instead he followed God in Faith.

Yes, God has given you that assignment, vision, etc but never follow them with emotions. Don't let your emotions lead you. There are some places emotions can't lead you to but only faith.

So, my dear sisters,
Watch yourself, your thoughts, etc and do not be emotionally trapped.

I pray God help us in Jesus Name...Amen!

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...

A DAILY REMINDER

I know you are going through all shades of different phase, I know you are thinking of what next, I know the hardship is tough and you feel your strength is failing but, This is a reminder To relax, To not get angry over small things, To stay calm. A daily reminder To be yourself, To not care what people think, To know you can be anything. To love yourself, To not hurt yourself, To not work yourself up. This is a daily reminder That you are beautiful, That you can be hardworking  That you are amazing, That you will succeed. To always have hope, To have faith, To know everything will be okay. A daily reminder That you have made it so far already, That you haven't given up, And you are going to be amazing. Don't give up. Keep holding on and believing.  It's a start of a new year and it's too early to feel pressured or insecure God cannot fail you, Be persist in that Job hunt Be persist in trusting God  Be expectant, don't loose guard  Everything will fall in place...
