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,

Emma Gonzalez

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...

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...

Society and one of its ills

This post started off as a rant, but then I decided why just rant? Critic the ill, but also share lessons you’ve amassed overtime. Remember, this month is the month of purpose, why rant and not have a purpose? I usually say, ‘everyone has an opinion, all it takes to be swayed to the other side – is good argument. Daz all! I can start a movement on ‘School should be optional, because these days an individual can ‘’blow’’ without the four walls of a classroom’, yes I’ll have followers, but then TeamEducationForAll would rise and protest with their POV, and then the debate would begin. *yawn* it is an endless vicious cycle. Today’s rant is all about Single. Singleness. Single persons. Single not in a relationship. Who dictates social media? People! Societies are made of people. It is funny that social media has a way of dragging one down ehn, but then again, its social media, we still need her (yes, social media is female), ironically I read three different articles...

I'm Inspired...
