Seasons - Hillsong

In case you don’t know, music is one of my inspirations; good music is therapeutic, good music is food for the soul and mind, in colloquial terms – music is the Inspired Cutiee’s bae!

Good music entails beautifully written lyrics, (as clichéd as it may sound; words are everything) good rhythm and beat, (you just can’t help but fall in love with the blend and synchronisation of time and sound, it is literally magical) and of course abundant harmony of voice or voices. Well, this is my definition of good music, argue with your two left legs *walks away*

Whenever I stumble on good music (perhaps it’s not a stumble – hmm notes to self) these things happen:

  • ·         I can’t help but share how it teleports me to another realm
  • ·         Scream it at the top of my lungs
  • ·         Basically just keep it on repeat
  • ·         Dance or cry or both


One of the producers of good music is *drum rolls* Hiillsong!



They never disappoint, trust me, if I do an album review, you’ll be mesmerised, it is just God’s grace on their ministry, yes, that’s what happens when you and your team derive inspiration from God.

‘Seasons’ (by Chris Davenport, Benjamin Hastings and Ben Tan of Hillsong), sigh, I can’t even begin to describe how much I love the lyrics of the song, every word, just, how should I say it? Aha! – gels!  The parts that get me are:

‘…Oh how nature acquaints us with the nature of patience…’
‘…Though my waiting prolongs even greater your promise for me like a seed, I believe that my season will come…’

Look at the bridge:

‘…You’re the God of seasons, I’m just in the winter
If all I know of harvest is that it’s worth my patience
Then if You’re not done working, God I’m not done waiting’
‘…You could have saved us in a second, instead You sent a child…’

Seasons are a replica of Ecclesiastes 3 ‘There is a time for everything’, I play this song every time, to remind myself, because the song is a reminder.

What are you waiting for? What are you looking forward to? What are you expectant for? Your season would come in His perfect time, best believe!


This is another food for thought... 



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...

Welcome to March!

By
March in my opinion simply means purpose, when you march you are heading somewhere, it’s like a movement to something there, so, the Inspired Cutiee’s theme for this month is Purpose. March is the third month, the number three is also a very significant number; Jesus’s three days from crucifixion to death to resurrection, The Trinity of our faith, etc. For all I know, you probably have some symbolic attachment to the number three. PS: I want three children, hehe. I have so many plans laid out; I want to literally march to lose weight, I want to complete a project I’m working on then kick start the next, so many to enumerate… But again, I refuse to be overwhelmed, I have the best support system. This month is the best month yet! However, these are some tips for conquering this Third Purposeful Month: 1.      Always ask yourself why; Why am I doing whatever I am doing; because the answer to this why directs you to a goal/end (either negative or ...

Your Isaac

By
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...
