WHISPERS OF INSPIRATION

Our expectations from life, people, and circumstances can make us too anxious and worry unnecessarily. However, in our walk in life, St. Francis de Sales (a 17th Century Bishop of Geneva) urges us to be patient with everyone, and above all with ourselves. Please never be disheartened or discouraged when challenges come. But always rise up with fresh courage to live every day with vitality. For starters let's learn to be: Patient to ourselves; Kind to ourselves, Charitable to ourselves,  and try to keep an a ctive smile. Stay blessed.     #KYB ✍🏿®#

It is good to dream dreams. But it is better to encourage dreamers live their dreams. However, it is not the quality of our dreams that counts but our will and determination to live these dreams that matters. Perhaps in caring to live our dreams in the sunshine of Divine Grace and in context of our vision and mission we need to back dreams with action and a positive attitude. Yes! We need a vision plan but we need doers who can make the vision a reality by turning them into tangible effects, services or products for the good of humanity. May God grant us the courage, strengthen our faith and determination, and bless our efforts to understand the dept of our dreams and live them. Be Blessed abundantly. Greetings #KYB ✍🏿®#

What do YOU live for? What drives YOU in life? What defines YOUR success? Beyond monetary or material gains, profit, academic laurels and pleasure, There's an essential part of us we seldom talk about; It's that beautiful-ugly component in our make up that hardly gets attention and needed support. It's that living project in us that we ought to know and live. The living project is a subtle soft sermon that is felt at one's birth and death. You might have seen it in the composure of birth attendants and felt it in the breath of our care givers in our homes, families, society, but which is strangled in our penchant to succeed in a world of changing trends. CARE is the definitive caricature in the living project and a key ingredient in our relationships with ourselves, others and God. Care is the very heartbeat of our mission here. To be Caring and Affectionate is the Reality of our Essence here. So please take care of how you relate to yourself, others includi

Acknowledging your smile in the newness of this year is an honour. Elevating the goodwill in your deed is in worthy. Commending the finesse in your action is edifying. You kept the thrust of this travelling walk burning and this aspiration a beautiful reality. The memories are still wonderful. The comradeship is still beautiful. Every moment is vital and treasured. God bless you. ☝🏿👓🦋☁ Thank You. #KYB ✍🏿®#

Bath in the glory of the new day. Bless your God with praise. Bless your soul for this age. It's great to thank God for His care.  It's vital to acknowledge our past in the experiences we share. As a continuum of the previous year, may we brace ourselves for greater things. Even as we: S- Stitch pieces of our experiences, T- Treasure our talents and relationships, A- Aspire for greater goals, R- Renew our relevance, T- Take necessary action in life, in 2018,  May we journey with great strides to make our hopes a reality. In taking ACTION, we have to be attentive and listen to God, and be ever ready to grow in wisdom. We have to cultivate patience to understand the rhythms of life. We have to always remember to seek God's guidance in our walk. We have to improve to become better managers of our lives, families and society. And ultimately express GENUINE CARE for our fellow human beings. May God bless us with courage and the temerity to turn the

For all His grace for us; For all the gifts and opportunities He gives us to live through these minutes, hours, days, weeks, months; For all His blessings from January to December, For all the friends and family He surrounds us with; What can we say to this wondrous Giver of Life? What can we say to this awesome God, ever rich in mercies? What can we say in our Praises and Thanksgiving to the Holy One? All too soon, we are at the end of another, and gradually inching to a new year. Let us join the Psalmist (Ps.137) to recount the deeds of the Lord in our lives. Let us remember Yahweh’s goodness to us and duly Thank Him. Even as we desire to know Him through our reflections on the Words of Sacred Scriptures, may we also be enlightened like St. Jerome to be nourished and filled by the fount of Life oozing from its rich reserve. As King Artaxerxes granted what Prophet Nehemiah asked (Neh.2:1-8), may God also grant in abundance all you asked and those you have not even asked. M
