      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 😘

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

By
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

By
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...
