The last day of 2015 - New Year's Eve


Recently I saw a hilarious reply to a tweet, the question was "have you been kissed on New Year's Eve Night"? the reply was "NO, because I'm always in Church"
I'm sure this applies to so many of us, you should see this hilarious list; 10 things that are too real for any Nigerian who has attended cross-over service
 And by the way, if you haven't seen by list, here my list

Before I get carried away in the excitement of New Year, I decided to drop this. Enjoy!

Ecclesiastes 3 verse 1 says "To everything there is a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven"
Verse 11 of the same chapter says " He hath made everything beautiful in his time; also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end".

As long as you are on planet earth, you are bound to time, you can't exceed the number of hours in day. There is only one person who isn't limited to time and that is God! The passage above says that 'He makes everything beautiful in his time; which means that it's not human time. God's time can not be calculated, can't be predicted. You also cannot see the end of anything, it is only him that knows for sure whatever would happen.  He saw the beginning and end of 2015.  In fact He has already seen the end of 2016, He knows who's not going to make the end of 2016.

Lots of people place so much emphasis on this day, sometimes its over hyped, yeah its a big deal to be alive at the end of year because so many people don't have this privilege. In fact my mom has gone for not less than one burial every month.
My point of view on this day however is; in as much as you reflect on the year that is passing away (because 2015 can never come again) its very important to project on the new year.

Nimah Anwah (Yasmine Elmasri) in Quantico (TV series) described new year as "the next day in a long line of days" during a conversation with  Alex Parrish (Priyanka Chopra) who said "new year's eve is  special".
Personally New Year signifies growth, it means I'm growing up; therefore more responsibilities, more challenges, basically more. lol.

However, the most important day that pushes closer as we step into  new year is the LAST DAY aka JUDGEMENT DAY for us believers. (also the last day of your life). The judge of this matter is God. the question is "How is your relationship with Him"? "How do you plan on improving this relationship"?
I listened to Pastor Sam Adeyemi (of Daystar Christian Center) some weeks ago, he said your New Year's Resolution should be: "What is my purpose on earth?", He said "Ask God why am I here?"

See you in 2016 by God's grace.
Lemme be the first to wish you "HAPPY NEW YEAR" *big grin*

With love, theInspiredCutiee 

Short story type of day

I wrote this while I was in church (please don't judge me , it just popped in my mind and I began to write) She felt something slowly tickle her face, she ignored it the first and second time, then it began to move more rapidly than before. She woke up in a startle, disoriented and wondered what could have been causing this, it felt like it was on her face, she touched her face and it was wet, 'what's this?' she asked herself because it was dark. She quickly jumped up and flicked the switch on.. She screamed when she saw it was blood! The small dark spot on her pillow and on her nightie (when she sat up) were both evidence that she was bleeding from her nose. 'No, no not again' she cried. 'This can't be happening again' she said! Then she quickly remembered she was to tilt her head up whenever her nose began to bleed, she tilted her head and waited a couple of minutes but it didn't stop. She began to panic because she was loosin...

Lauren Daigle

Lauren Daigle is a contemporary christian music singer. I absolutely love her voice. She speaks to your soul and situation.  Her music is exceptional; but my favorite two are: How Can It Be and Trust In You. The first time I heard 'How Can It Be' I was in tears.. Sigh.. Like I said she speaks to your situation. That moment of my life I felt inadequate of God's love and then I heard this song.  Just take a moment to look at the lyrics:  http://www.azlyrics.com/lyrics/laurendaigle/howcanitbe.html 'Trust in you' is nothing short of her amazing voice, again the lyrics blow me away. The chorus is always a reminder: When You don’t move the mountains I’m needing You to move When You don’t part the waters I wish I could walk through When You don’t give the answers as I cry out to You I will trust, I will trust, I will trust in You! I always ask myself; can I still trust God when He doesn't give me the answers I want? Can I still be genuinely gra...

The Halo Effect

Are you exhibiting the halo effect? Do you buy products because of the celebrity representing it? Or stay in a relationship that is wrong because of one good quality? We are all attracted to people all the time. What attracts us to others? And what attracts you? When you meet someone for the first time you draw a conclusion about them, subconsciously you decide whether you like them or not. BUT is it possible that one trait or aspect of one's character can influence your perception about them? Honestly, I judge a person's character based on their physical appearance, its a quick judgment that is very likely inaccurate. The good thing is that once I begin to have a conversation, I realize there's more to the person than just physical looks. (Well that's for those that are actually more than their looks). The halo effect can cloud our judgment even when we know about it. When one good quality spills its appeal unto other elements of a per...
