Though it tarries... It will surely come to pass

God is not man that He should lie.
Faithful is He

WAIT

Though the vision you have in your

heart and mind tarries

WAIT

Though you feel like giving up

WAIT

IT will not lie.


Someday, the dream you have will grow a voice, and it will speak.

You won't need to speak for it anymore.


Just wait.


My dream spoke.

I laugh

I laugh in the face of adversity.

I laugh because I am in His Presence.

I laugh about the days to come.

I laugh about all He's done.

I laugh due to enlightening knowledge.

I laugh because of wisdom.

I laugh even when it hurts.

I laugh sometimes through the tears.

I laugh because God is God.

I laugh because the problems are too small.

I laugh before my King.

I laugh because of a new season.

I laugh because I know,

right now, through and at the end of it all,

I will be laughing.

Job 8:21 "He will yet fill your mouth with laughter
and your lips with rejoicing"

Wind in my hair

Need to let loose a few things I have been thinking about so here goes:

Life

Sometimes we try too hard to be the best at everything that we don't enjoy the process of becoming all that we can be. Sometimes we put too much on others that it stops us from enjoying the little they offer us.

Love

One minute your world makes no sense without them, the next you wanna tear them apart with your bare hands if it were possible that the police wouldn't trace them to you. You wonder why you have family or are in love with that person that seems to pierce the very nerve that makes you go up the wall. Why do you love them again? Like seriously, why?! Then you realize, oh yea, you love them... Vicious cycle.

Ministry

I think of people who have succeeded in their ministry or calling in life and I want to be like them. I hope I can stand in the hall of the Pauls and Peters when I stand before my Father. I don't want to be one of those who bring shame to the gospel. But it is not to him who runs or wills, but of God who shows mercy, and He who started a great work in me, is able to complete and perfect it.

*********************************

I am grateful for all the things God is doing in my life. A tell it all post will come soon. Some day :)

(Never give up on what God tells you)

Madam Ekundayo, A Legacy and Yours.

Hey all.

Been a while. I've been a bit busy so pardon my absence, especially on the blogs I visit as I have really only just had time to be here.

I don't know if any of you know of a woman called Madam Ekundayo. A 94+ year old woman who owned an orphanage in Nigeria called 'Ekundayo's Children's Home' in Kogi State in Nigeria, who had taken children (orphans or abandoned) and taken care of them without government aid or support.

(Click here to listen to the song written by TY Bello based on Madam Ekundayo and watch shots of her, here.)

Mama Ekundayo, a woman not seeking the world's applause, neither having an extravagant lifestyle with jets and planes to fly to the next poorest african country to adopt a child and make a whole fortune out of pictures with Hello, however recently passed away. Obviously she lived a good life. Well advanced in her years and by 2007, had taken in her 469+ child. 2009 marked the 40th year since she started taking children in. She got a song written about her in 2006 and it was only in 2008 that the world really knew who she was. She left behind a legacy, especially for those 469 children she gave homes to, and the opportunity of having lives of their own.

This only left me thinking one thing: what will people say of me when I am gone and more importantly what will God say when I meet Him?
