Let them know I got you

I have done a lot of crazy things for love. Not every time, I don't fall in love all the time but when I do..., and some of those crazy things, I never share, they just serve as means to an end, and when the final result is perfect, I act like it was effortless...I smile like it cost me no pain, no stress, I didn't work so hard, I'm just happy to see the outcome and the priceless look on the face of the mortal that inadvertently made me a secret superwoman.




I don't even seek the chance to say "You won't imagine the crazy hell I went through to get this, or the stupid things I did or how I fooled myself to make sure I got out of work to see you or how I had to use my school fees to get on that flight and stuff like that". You all know all the fences you have jumped over and things you have borrowed and the people you have slapped to make someone you love feel great.




Sometimes, when we need to have a good laugh, we may share with our friends, or tell the story using the third person, some of us even call that 'person' my friend or 'one of my friends', smh... Love can bring out the idiot in you.





The annoying part sometimes is when we never shut up. The world knows we have fallen in love, that we met someone, we don't care if anyone gets jealous, very few times, the idea is to make everyone know that you've got something sweet that should be envied, desired, you've found your happiness, your haven in life, a perfect lady or gentleman. Love never shuts up, love doesn't keep quiet. Even though we like our privacy, something inside us wants to explode and say "I've found my happy, love her till death".









We share photos on all the social platforms, tweet about them, take them to almost every gathering, have their photos on our tables. But isn't that part of what love is about?


Should I not be worried if I love someone, or I think I'm in love with someone and he doesn't treat me the way I treat him or plan to, or even half as much, or is ashamed of me?



Shouldn't I panic if other 'seekers' don't know yet that he's got me, and may never know, because he will never tell? Some of my guy friends have whispered to me about how they show-off their special lady but she's never displayed them on any social network or said anything sweet about them anywhere. "I guess she likes to keep her private life private, or she's not sure it will last and can't keep changing photos and names when everyone's watching..." that's often my consolation speech.

Enough about mortals and their conditional love. Some of the people we love with so much excitement are not even so deserving...yet there's someone else we could have spent as much energy on...


This post is about Jesus, He's not man, and I may be wrong to say he feels just as we do when our significant other doesn't carry us with pride, but love is universal, the song of the universe, when love is love, it burns, even when we don't feel like love, if we're still committed, we still do acts of love.

If I love God, and I don't tell the world about Him, I'm not so proud of Him. I could love Him in secret, praise Him in my car, give huge donations in church, fast and pray in secret, but he hasn't become my pride...


He might as well be my ugly maga boyfriend whom I just want to manage because He's rich and He gives me everything I need. He might as well be one guy on the side who thinks he's the one but I'm really looking for something better with which to replace him...


"I don't want to mess my profile up with some Jesus post, I may loose all my friends and followers."

"If I talk about Jesus, I could lose my job, expose myself to persecution and die before my time." But how do you know when it's your time... Sometimes you have to be still to hear your heart beating but Jesus hears it all the time, He knows how many beats you've had and how many more are left... He loves you so much, if you're not proud of Him, it will break His heart like the heart of a poor mother would shatter when she is denied in public by her tear-eye* daughter.

If you are ashamed of Him, He will deny you also before His Father. We are still graced in this part of the country that we can express our religion freely. Go beyond religion...show passion for Christ. You don't need a pulpit, show Him off anyhow.




I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, because it is the power of God that brings salvation to everyone who believes...

Dr. Mike Murdock says "Leave no love unspoken and unused inside you, that too is an emptied life"

I always tell my friends "Why be a small boy's secret, when you can be a real man's pride"... I don't think Jesus wants to be your secret either...

Go tell them about Jesus, do something crazy and smile about it... Tell me how you felt when you're done. *wink*

I had a funny dream last night...

This is pretty much marketing but in my dream last night, i left my Samsung Galaxy note 3 on the table in some public place and went out.




On my return in the evening, it so happened that everyone was complaining, the place had just been robbed. In reality, I have lost my phones many times, not out of carelessness, I get robbed. But in this dream, seeing that my phone was just where I left it on the table was not only surprising for me but also placed me on some kind of guilt trip because everyone else was robbed of something worth less, just as much and even more than that note 3+gear.

                           

With that awkward blend of sadness, surprise, pity, guilt and empathy, I asked them "How come nobody took my phone? How come I wasn't robbed, it's right here, just where I left it".

And then somebody among them answered, "Your bluetooth is on, that's why?"

"That's crazy! how can they not take my phone just because the bluetooth is on?"

"O you don't get it, you're connected, you're transmitting, giving or receiving, they didn't want to alter the connection, they'll get caught".

I woke up, got to work, forgot about the dream. Then I saw a colleague's Note 2 and the dream came back to my head in a flash. I thought it was funny so I decided to share it with a friend. Laughing over it as I said, "Can you imagine, how can they just not steal my phone because it's connected, or it's transmitting???"

That's it! I exclaimed, that's the idea. There's a message to it.

I didn't get robed because I was connected. Psalm 91:7 "A thousand may fall at your side , ten thousand at your right hand, but it will not come near you."

This may have been a funny dream, something that can rarely happen in real life, but trust me there have been similar incidences in reality where God spares His own from harm and damage.

I've shared the dream, now spread the message.

Have a beautiful day!

Trust in the Lord with all your heart.

The Bible is full of passages where we are encouraged to trust God.

Cursed is he that puts his trust in man.

This is a really simple message, Trust God, what He has promised will surely come to pass. Even if you know no man, hold on to your God.

A God-made will never be moved, like Mount Zion, you will abide forever.

Ps: That is me in the photo

Believe in God

Hebrews 3:19 " So we see that because of their unbelief,  they were not able to enter His rest".

Fear is faith that something bad will happen. Do you remember what Job said in Job 3:35??? He said the thing which he greatly feared has come upon him.

Jesus said in John 14:1, Let not your heart be troubled,  believe in God, believe also in me...

I think this is an indicator that letting your heart get troubled is a sure sign that you dont think God can do it. You've got to find a way out to help yourself because you feel time is not on your side,  God is probably not going to be on time...No, quit doubting.  It is through faith and patience that we inherit the promise.Heb 6:12

God made you, He knows exactly what you need and He knows how to give it to you. Just keep the right attitude,  Joel Osteen would say honour God,  keep Him first place, be good to people.

Scripture says in Proverbs 23:18, Surely there is an end and your expectations will not be cut off. Ephesians 3:20 reiterates that God is able to do infinitely more than we can ask or think through His power at work within us.

His power at work in me is NOT a tiny, insignificant one. I know my God, I'll be strong and do exploits. Keep that attitude,  don't limit God. He has a greater plan for you than you or any man can imagine. (1cor 2:9)

So you think you have plans for your life??? Then imagine what the one who made you conceived before you were formed...An amazing one! It will amaze you.

Quit worrying,  quit doubting,  just keep on thanking God for His steadfast love. Forget about all your needs for a moment and concentrate on God, for He is before all things,  and in Him all things consist.  Col1:17
