MY CONFESSION

Lord, at times I come to you, when my faith is not strong. But in your loving arms i fall and you have shown me that i belong. You carry me when i think i can't go any longer. The love you have can only grow stronger and stronger. With you living in my daily life, you are the living God I praise. Thank you for the goodness At times I want to lay it all down to you, and at your feet i fall. You have shown me there is a way and you help me to give it all. You give me the faith to be stronger, even though i may not know. The things that are not of you, you help me to let go. You are my strength, my deliverer, the rock that makes me unbroken. You lead me to be righteous with things I feel are all unspoken. I pray for understanding, but sometimes I may stumble. I look up to you for answers that my world may never crumble. I know at that time you will be there to carry me through it all. You are there to pick me up, even as i may fall. Father, my ever living God, i ask you for your pard...

MY STRUGGLE

BATTLE 45 *DEPEND ON HIM* I do not want your counsel and advice. Where were you all when I was enduring hunger? You were not there when I was thirsty and searching for someone to quench my taste When I was having financial problems, You did not assist me in my hour of need. I thought I could depend on you, When I was in pain but, You were not around to sympathise with me. I needed the comforting words of a friend but, I did not see you... I felt that I was going to succumb to my illness. And I had nobody to call out to for help. You did not even try to find out about my condition. I knew that you could not cure my illness, But your presence would have lifted me. Now, I see you do not really care about my well-being and yet, you make me think you will always be there You led me on that, I should depend on you but you let me down This is not the right way to treat someone... Dear Sisters, I know how you feel and I understand you. I know you might feel disappointed because those you think...

TRYING MOMENTS

"How do I explain this position I am? I guess, I'm just tired of my faith Nothing seems to work It's taking a lot of time but, How long do I keep waiting on the lord I don't think I can go on ... Nothing has changed in my life Pastor Keep saying I will be great but this time doesn't look good I don't even believe in myself. How much can I believe in God Everyone keep says, I have blackslided but, Nobody knows what is going on with me I don't even understand myself I think I need restoration.. Help me, I want to go back to who I am meant to be I was once spiritual but now, I'm not anymore I'm thinking Christianity isn't even meant for me Help me..." People are bringing me down I just can't get my balance I guess I need restoration" Tumininu said Dear sisters, This is a trying moments, A lot of people are going down the christian lane but, Trust me this is not a time to keep gossiping or talking about them This is the time we need to...

THERE'S HOPE FOR YOU?

I have an invisible friend Who guides me through dark and pain. He always tells me not to give up As he believes in me when I don't believe in myself  When my paths are not clear And I am surrounded by fear, He holds my trembling hands and says, "Oh dear, don't you worry, good days are near!" Even though all I see are my struggles One day I finally asked Him, "How can you be so positive about everything?" "Just like after dark night comes bright day, Just like after every storm comes the calm, Through ups and downs, life always goes on." He said  He made me believe in miracles, Gave strength to my wings. No matters how impossible things may seem, He always make me see positivity  He is the reason I always smile. I never give up, I never blame  Because I have an invisible friend, And Hope is His name! Do you feel down, Do you feel lost Do you think nobody love or want you There's a friend that sticker closer than everyone. His name is Jesus and ...

YOUR WEAPON

Sometimes, I feel left out in everything I go to places and I feel I don't belong there I just feel I'm not needed or people pretend like they need me.... Sometimes, I feel betrayed By the one person you think should be of help mostly to you Especially those you dedicate your time and attention to and you think they should help you but later betray you Are they just assumptions? I think I deserve better, I definitely do, I'm trying all my best to feel okay. I'm trying all my best to please them but it's not working I keep hurting myself again and again I feel left out I think after all, I don't matter and nobody cares too Yet, I Keep hurting myself and I just think the only way to be free is to run away from everyone around me who doesn't need me and just stay low. Dear sisters, You need to be strong first,  That should be your weapon  Believe and love yourself Don't live your life like a nobody or like someone who has to please everyone When you came to...

WHERE DID IT GO

Where did it go? The question I ask myself, I don't understand, How did I lost it? How did I lost that passion for God How did I lost that hunger for God? My God! Yes, I still speak in tongues But, there's no vibe That zeal like I use to have while I was in campus That zeal like the first encounter with Him My God! Where did it go? That Hunger and drive, I can't find it anymore... How did I get here? How did I get back? Someone help me..."NIKE said as she cried... Dear Sisters, In this noisy world, don't lose your voice If there's one thing you should do, is to help yourself become a better person each and every day Remember, our standard is not measured by what we have in this world but how far we have gone in touching lives, helping soul and fulfilling God's assignment. I pray God grants us the grace. ADENIKE is on hold, but we shall continue soon *Alokan Temilade Victoria* *Light Lamp*

DARE TO BE DIFFERENT

A world of peace, a world of hope. Not full of violence, crime and dope. I want all that's bad to be stopped in its tracks. I want all that's good and filled with all that it lacks. I need this world to become calm. I need all the innocent kept safe from harm. I pray that the day will soon be here. I pray all will be protected, all we hold dear. No more starving, illness or war. Let's step on through, open the door, To a fresh beginning, a place of joy, A wish for every girl and every boy. May the earth heal and feel safe once more. May it start afresh and forget all the horror and bad doings Let it begin, step by step, let the change commence. Let's wake up and use our wisdoms  Many are in pain and struggles each day. Let's all start to help heal, take the hurt away. I wish my dreams would come true, That we can start to save this world, make it good, for me and for you." Elizabeth said  Dear sisters  Let us learn from all our mess, Show more care and kindness...

HIDDEN

Hiding the hurt, Hiding the pain,  Hiding the tears that fall like rain. Saying I'm fine when I'm anything but. This ache in my soul rips me so much  I burn from within. The calm on my face is an ongoing deceive, The world must stay out; I've built up a wall. Loneliness consumes me; it eats away the years Until my life is swallowed by unending fears. Waiting for someone to see I wear a mask And care enough to remove it; is that too much to ask? Deborah said as looked at the counselor Dear sisters, I understand the situation of the country but that doesn't give us the privilege to be victims of it I know many are passing through lots of shege even when you try to help others but only a healed person can heal another. If you wait till others sees you, You might not be noticed and before you know it you begin to lose yourself Bible says, come to me you that are heavy laden. Not wait for me. You need to go to God in prayers. Seek Him and invite Him Read books Go out Study t...

USED TO BE

"I tell myself that everything's going to be ok, that there is no reason for all this pain. The time it took to change, the time it took to see all those mistakes. The life I had, I can't have back. The choices I made, affected me in all those ways. The mistakes I made have not been forgotten. The tears I shed, the sounds I made, the feelings  that left me feeling in a different way. Yet I can't see why these tears feel so unreal. I'm not the same, my words are unsaid. What I hide is buried deep inside" Funto said as she spoke out to the counselor Dear sisters, To know, to love, to breathe. It hurts to know that you might never be the girl you used to be. What matter most is that you have/will always be strong The feeling is real, the truth is sealed. You cry in the dark because you know its hurt too deep. The scars are real, but the wounds in the heart are another mark. If people only knew what you have been through, or maybe they could take a walk in your sh...

WHY

"Hmmm. What's going to happen now" Zoe said as she keeps scrolling through her phone forgetting she has a roommate. Tade coughed down to make her realize someone is in the room "What do you mean by what's going to happen? "Ooh no, I wasn't talking to you. I was talking to myself" Zoe said "We both know that's not true Zoe. Spill it out, what's bothering you?" Tade insisted "Why is it that everyone is doing something? It's making it look as if we that are not doing anything, are not serious with our lives" Zoe said "What do you mean you that is not doing anything, if I may ask? Tade asked "I mean posting something's, having ministry. At least something for people to see that you are moving " Zoe said "I sincerely don't get. What about your evangelism unit? The teens children department you are handling, what are you doing about it? Or what do you call that? Ehn answer me Zoe" Tade said ...

WHAT WILL PEOPLE SAY

"Tola, I don't think things can be like that? Do you know what people will be saying about me. Some will even say, I have given up on the assignment given to me. Some are even waiting to see the end result but how will I show that, I haven't stopped and just passing through some challenges and need a quiet time" Bibi said as she was seriously worried. "I sincerely don't understand you. Whose approval are you waiting for? If you keep waiting for the praises of men, you will keep pushing and trying to make things right and at the end of the day get choked up. Why care so much about what people will say? You don't need explanation on why to take a break. You can't just keep going without a break except you want to break down and taking a break doesn't mean you have backslided. How do you expect to deliver when you aren't in a good position, it shows you are an HYPOCRITE. Not everyone will understand your break season and that's life for you...
