In Our Titles

Image
Me: Congrats, Cee. That was a good fight. (With a teasing look at the loser) Cee: Thank you. ( while panting for breath) Me: How do you feel like the new 'village' champion, after beating our former title holder? Him: Errrh! Please, please, stop it. Am not the village champion. I am not interested in your titles. Just let me be. That guy was a bully and was misbehaving. And he needs to know his level... That's was a mock report from the village playground account, years ago.   That Friday, the unassuming lanky and agile Cephas, floored a well fed and stout looking Kofi, who carried himself as the unbeatable Village Champion for years. But after his defeat, he learned how to be humble, at least when the new champion was around or passed by. Today, it's common for you and me to spot similar characters like Kofi, who parade themselves on our streets or carry themselves around as champions in their respective disciplines. This is not to say it's bad in

Contours in Curves

In the contours and curves of life, There are several happenings on the undulating path that could kill your love and hope. There are predators and people who can cause you to stop caring or provoke you to stop loving. But if you live today, PLEASE Take care you don't lose hope. Take care you don't lose faith. Take care you don't lose focus. Take care you don't lose steam. Take care of your spirituality. Take care of your wellbeing. Take care of your integrity. Kindly, take care of your dreams, because they are worth living. Take care of your life because it is still a precious gift to behold. Take care of your family and those who were for you. Take care of those who are on the fringes of our streets. Wishing you a wonderful mid-week. God bless. #KYB ✍®#

Needful Duty

Image
Healthy service to humanity, minus harm is a critical need today.  But to achieve this, we have to cultivate a good sense of compassion and a genuine concern for the wellbeing of our neighbours. That way, we would be building a more peaceful, happy and stable world. Do have a blessed week. Greetings #KYB ✍®#

Discern the Value

Image
As the sun sleeps in the dark clouds of the night, let's be mindful of obstacles on the bumpy roads of our lives, including the "valleys in our virtue deficiency", "curves in our faith inconsistency" and the hills in our pride to serve one another. May we be filled with the fruit of righteousness and our love and knowledge, be increased in order to discern what is of value, and right for our wellbeing and our spiritual growth. Good night. #KYB ✍®#

Evening Bolt

Await a happy dawn, whenever the evening voice sings in amber. Anticipate a good day when the evening breeze winks at you. And please remember to tighten your evening bolt with a prayer of gratitude. Do have a peaceful night. Bless your soul. #KYB ✍🏿®#

The Farm-Kitchen

Image
From the farms of our toil, From the farms of our hope, From the farms of our works, We are blessed with a bountiful harvest and wonderful meals cooked in our kitchens. In eating from the farms of our kitchen, we are assured of sumptuous meals daily. However, the tempting invitation to drink and eat to quench our thirst and hunger, make us forget our farmers. But in thanking our chefs for displaying their culinary skills to prepare the many meals, we have to thank our farmers too for their efforts. They don't just deserve our salutation but our appreciation. But it's not enough to just recognise our farmers with national awards scheme. Indeed, the planting for food and jobs, and rearing for food and jobs is a good move by the government, but we have to ensure its success and make the programme more inclusive. To appreciate our Farmers better, we have to rethink our land tenure system and how we lessen the challenges associated with acquiring land for our farms.

Mysterious Ways

In telling the stories of miracles and how we even manage to wake from our sleep; In analysing the intricate web, as well as the near-death or harrowing experiences we go through and how we have survived to this hour; With the happenings within, and around us, and how we have scaled through, it's by God's sustaining grace. It's true God cares and is very concerned. But how He manages to do this and still guides us through those tests and momentary changes to keep us going, remains a mystery. Indeed, were we to understand all His ways, then He ceases to be God. If we are able to predict His ways then He's no longer that awe-inspiring God. Sometimes our plans are thrown off gear and yet He brings us to His humbling way, and to the watershed of new beginnings that we might not have thought of. So if He is guiding you through, and the path remains unclear or confusing, just relax, remain calm and entrust yourself under His care and pray for deeper insight. What you
