The last day of 2015 - New Year's Eve

By

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 

I am usually all for honesty; I wrote this piece for one the blogs I feature in, but apparently it couldn’t fly because it didn’t centre on an African, (which is good, we got to celebrate Africa). ‘No worries', I said to myself, 'I wrote it, Emma Gonzalez inspires me, so, ama share it here'… While valentine’s festivities for the year was in the air, students of Majory Stoneman Douglas High School in Florida were experiencing the most memorable days of their youthful lives; a fellow student of the above named school went on a rage and killed seventeen people. Seventeen lives were lost because one unstable person had his hands on a weapon of destruction. This event is not just a traumatic one for those involved, but more of an uproar; come on, its rational for anyone in this situation to be livid. Having seen clips of the incident, watched the town hall meeting aired by CNN, read tributes, speeches, and the ever trending hashtags #WeCallBS #NotAgain, it’s amazi...

Your Isaac

I always marvel at Abraham's faith. That man went through a lot. I ask myself if I'm capable of enduring one tenth of what he went through.. (Genesis 12 and 22) After waiting for years for a child, God eventually gave him one, and then God said he should sacrifice him.. Every time I read this passage (Genesis 22:2) I take a pause, I'm like 'hollup hollup, whatasay??'. I'm always like God please don't give me such a test oh; because I'll legit fail. 😖 Notice in Gensis 22:1; says 'After all this, God tested Abraham' (The Message). Its clearly says after all what Abraham went through God tested him, test is in past tense; meaning when Abraham was encountering such it wasn't a test for him. We read it now as a test; but for him it was life, real life! Not African Magic or Telemundo.. Lol. What's your Isaac I ask? It doesn't have to be your child.. Lol. It can be your time, your communion with God, or time with other belie...

Star Struck!

Hmmm… My people, na so I see my celebrity crushes… Na so I stand at attention Na so my mouth no gree move Na so I just dey look Chai! My brain no even boot to take picture… Na so I dull! Ha-ha! I wrote this poem on the spur of writing this post. I should actually give you the gist… Scene 1 I needed to use the ATM, so, I decided to go the nearest one around my office, I said to myself ‘this won’t take time, no need to carry phone’, that’s how I left my phone in the office oh. I got to the ATM, there were a couple of people, so I joined the queue, that’s how a black jeep rolled into the parking lot. Enter Nathaniel Bassey… I opened my eyes with surprise, (if you read my posts, you know Nathaniel is BAE!) and began to wonder why no one was screaming and acting all giddy. ‘Is the ATM working’ he asked. ME!!! He spoke to ME!!! I couldn’t even answer I just shook my head because I was too mesmerised. God bless you, I am...
