ARISE WITH HOPE

-
Rationally it's good to question why things happen the way they do.
Academically it's stimulating to engage our mental faculties to understand why things happen the way they do.
Humanly speaking it's interesting how we excessively complain, nag, lament or even apportion blame on others for causing strange things that happen in our lives and in our society.
As righteous as he was, Job also lamented about his predicament.
And the LORD addressed Job out of the storm and said:
``Have you ever in your lifetime commanded the morning and shown the dawn its place,
For taking hold of the ends of the earth,
till the wicked are shaken from its surface?"(see Job 38:1,12-21).
As a loving God, who created us in His image, we cannot understand every happening in this life but He reminds us of our worth to overcome the challenges we have allowed to molest us.
So arise with hope to command the morning in your favour.
Arise with renewed hope to see the brighter side of your challenges, even as you strive to do something beautiful today.
May the Lord of lords, who formed our inmost beings, help us repent from our odd ways and be better people. Amen
May the Lord of Hosts, who has blessed us with the gift this beautiful day, continue to guide us along the everlasting path. Amen.
And may the Almighty God bless us in all our dealings, so that they may help us advance our common good.
Remain Blessed. Greetings

In the 2023 Class

With Thanksgiving we crawled to crossover to this year. We entered the class of 2023 with renewed expectations, We joined the class with hope and resolve to inch higher. We stretched our yearnings in our white gear with glee, At the permission to exercise the gift of life in 2023. With the epiphany of the inceptions, We had the baptism of some pleasant unpleasant news. There were some unexpected expected goodbyes. There were economic downturns that touched our smiles. All in the process of the 2023 class. With some miracles here and there, We trekked the evidential path of experience of liveliness. We learned lessons through our encounters and engagements. There were low-high or high-low important rewarding moments. All in the vicinity of the 2023 class. With the melting pot of people, culture, influence, power, We remember the flooding that overwhelmed our comfort. We recall the vulnerable tears and the solidarity of our people, All in the memorable 2 023

Honouring the Elderly

In the library of living legends your name is recorded. In the library of borrowed hearts, our connections still live. In the library of our common history, a society of experiences still breathes. In this library of hope, are shelves of lives that still thrives. In this library of human resources are many with miles of smiles, Entrusted with a priceless collection of ancient folklore. In this library of pages are those with ages who guide us through the reality of this perilous-fun loving matrix of life. In this library of changing scenes of adventures are memories of moments worth keeping. In the present library of our future are the pillars and linkages of our common heritage buried in our bloodlines of our ancestry. This is why it's proper to revere the elderly in our society. This is why it's vital to honour and celebrate their contributions. This is why it's necessary to listen, learn and leverage our connections with the elderly and become better. Greetin

A Blessed End of 2023

Several years ago, I went to town not to crossover or watch the might of the last day's night but to feel the air of the last day. It was somewhat noisy, phony, and funny but I just didn't like the depth of creativity in the way Christians were using to cash in on the last day of the calendar. Today is D-Day or call it the mother of all nights or the Climax of all the overs: in Crossover, Climb over, Crawl over, Jump over, Scale over, Scream or Shout over, Sprint over, Run over, Pray or Push over, Watch or Walk over, Take over, Limp over, Jet over, Dive over, Lift over etcetera. It's not just enough to do the watch night and the so-called crossing-overs but to soberly reflect on our lives, and our attitudes in the past 365 days. We need to interrogate our efforts, our Care, our thoughts, and our actions or inactions so that we will individually and collectively access ourselves. Even in our reviews, overviews, and counterviews of our efforts in 2015 we can&
