      Today is Friyay the 30th of September 2016, this means
  • ·         the end the working week
  • ·         the end of another month in 2016,
  • ·         the end of the 9th month,
  • ·         tomorrow is October 1st, Nigeria’s Independence
  • ·         it is also someone’s birthday lol
I want you to take few minutes and reflect; (I already did that this morning so I won’t be a hypocrite) try and think about your first day in this year and other days that have passed (I doubt you’ll be able to remember everything that happened except if you had a journal, and most journals contain only memorable events). Think of goals you set out to achieve; the ones you did, the ones you didn’t, friends you’ve made and the ones you’ve lost. Trust me a lot has happened, if you think I’m wrong, just take a look at yourself in the mirror, you’ve either added or lost some weight, you’ve either gotten darker or fairer, you’ve even changed your hairstyle (for some more than once lol).

Psalm 103 verse 2 according to King James Version “Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits” if you continue reading from verse 3, it states the benefits God gives. For some 2016 may have started out great, but right now it feels like shit, the irony is that this is the reverse for some people; some people have bought cars, some houses while others have lost these things. My point is that despite all that is happening, DON’T FORGET GOD’S BENEFITS. What are benefits? They are like added advantages, like extra or as Yourba people say “fisi”.

I write this post with lots of mixed feelings because I just received some unexpected news; sadness, anger, happiness, hurt and doubt, but I’ll still remember God’s benefits, those he has given me without me asking or deserving them.

Before I round up, look back thank God for his benefits, look at now and smile, or try to smile, and look forwardand ask for grace to accomplish those goals set before you.

With love,
TheInspiredCutiee 😘

List

By
As we countdown hours to the end of the year, in every corner there seem to be lists of things that happened this year; they maybe favorite or worsts, or top experiences or things that made history, sha lists. (you get my drift right?). I don't think I have sat down to draw up a 'list' well expect when I was applying for a job and they specifically said give 10 reasons why we should hire you. Yeah that happened. Lol. So I have been thinking, really thinking. A whole lot can happen in a year, emphasis on  'whole lot'. Except you write every detail of what happens daily and not miss a day (I wonder if there are people that are this deep) you are bound to forget some things. The movie 'INSIDE OUT' depicted how our mind works. (If you've seen it; you have an idea of what I'm talking about, if you've not I don't know what you are waiting for) There are too many things that have happened this year for me as an individual, in fact as a...

Sunday Special

By
FEAR Where can I hide from this scary beast I'm so tired of attending these feasts I have been held bound by your lies  You told me I can't go beyond where I am My whole life I had dreams that would transform the world I saw myself sitting with Kings Dinning with Princes But In reality,all that was on my plate was hate I looked around and saw regret You made me feel comfortable, here on this dinning table Feeding me with stories of how I can't, How I wouldn't be able to! You told me they would laugh at me the moment I opened my mouth to speak That explains why everyone thinks I'm weak I got letters of Invitation from greatness You tore them right before my eyes You took me out once in a while to see your friends,mediocrity, status quo and Impossibility They seemed cool at the time Till I met faith Then I realised my whole life has been a deception All this while I was at the wrong reception Faith took me on a walk and showed me all the things I ...

Part 3

By
In case you missed it, here's  Part 1 and Part 2 The next step is Reach Out! Verse 22 says the father wasn't listening; he was already calling out to the servants. He didn’t wait for the son to finish his apology speech. He reached out in compassion, he reached out in forgiveness. That is a sign for us too as individuals, don’t always be the one to be reached. This is Christmas period, reach out to someone.  Today my younger sister and her friends went to Old people's home to clean up for them. They didn't have to give them any material thing. What made me laugh was when she said the prayers were much; I mean old people can pray. I told her it is a good thing. But this doesn't mean that you should always expect something when you reach out.  I hope this week you reach out to someone or even a group of people. And I know God is preparing your special package because nothing you do goes unnoticed by Him; man might not be able to thank you but He ...
