      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 😘

End It?

By
I love the series 'How To Get Away With Murder' not necessarily because of its name or its characters or storyline but because I love very good series scripts and the above is definitely on my top ten list. I'm not about to rave about the series, lol, (you can go online, download it or go to the nearest DVD retail outlet and 'grab your copy now') but to talk about the advice Annalise Keating (played by Viola Davis) gave to Nate's Wife - Nia Lahey (who is dying of ovarian cancer in the show) Here's an excerpt from the episode: Nia: I want you to end it Annalise: I'm sorry? Nia: I want you to kill me Then after so much consideration and guilty conscience, here is how it went down: Annalise: I think about it a lot; killing myself, I have ever since I was a child, lot of times I think the world would be a much better place without me in it, but I don't do it. You are a better woman than me, and if I don't deserve to die then you definitel...

Part 2

If you missed Part 1, here is the link: http://theinspiredcutiee.blogspot.com.ng/2015/10/part-1.html#more Part 2: Habit A habit is something done repeatedly sometimes sometimes unconsciously. 40% of everything we do is done merely from habit. Experts say that a habit can be broken or formed in 30 days. I have bad habits, (cell phone addiction, PROCRASTINATION) some I don't even know how I'll be if I stop,(watching too much series) some I have stopped, (I used to suck my lower lip) and I'm sure you too have some habits that are bad. No judgment, habits form us, its when they are bad that it becomes a problem. Breaking a habit can seem overwhelming, especially when you have more than one. Choose a single habit and work on that until you are victorious before you pick up another one. Lemme share a classic example, I began to exercise daily few weeks ago, normal body pains are expected, but me I stopped.  I couldn't deal. On Saturday 24th October I ...

Part 1

By
In one of his songs, Nathaniel Bassey described Zechariah 4:6 (Not by power, not by might, but by my Spirit; saith the Lord) as thus; So many of us have tried to fight addiction in the flesh, you've tried to stop that habit, you've tried to get out of that relationship, you've tried to break through, you've tried will power BUT its not by power not by might but by my Sprit saith the Lord. Hence the kick off of the series, (they don't follow each other in the traditional sense of series, think of it like American Horror Story Series) Part 1: ADDICTION Dictionary dot com defines it as the state of being enslaved to a habit, or practice or to something that is physiologically or physical habit-forming as narcotics, to such an extent that its cessation causes severe trauma. A couple of months back, my brother and I were arguing over 'habit' 'addiction' and 'obsession', which comes first?, which is difficult to break? and so much more. Can...
