LIFE IS A MYSTERY


Life is full of mysteries; comedy to those who want to laugh, tragedy to those who feel the pains and agonies life offers. I observe the trend of events in each phase of life; indeed life is embedded in mysteries that no one can unfold when it is needed most.
I see people preordained for a specific position in life; but unable to get there because they are always in wrong company. Every step they take to make things right always take them far from their purpose on earth. They have mind of gold, but concealed in dirt. They have good motives; but overwhelmed by evil deeds of their company.
I see people running with all their strength and energy without knowing what is pursuing them. They run and run until they breathe the last breath of life. I see people struggling and jostling to assume position of authority; believing it is the will of God. In the pursuit of power and authority some even maim and kill those who constitute forces against them. They have forgotten that it is of the Lord to give power and authority. He dethrones and enthrones at His will. No one can assume position of authority be it good or evil man without the consent of God.
Everyone has good plans to become something worthwhile in life; but forces of life fast-forward, delay, alter or abort the good plans. Everyone has aspiration one point at a time; but it may not be the right season. That is why many suffer massive loss in their pursuits in life. What shall we do to know what life will offer? Shall we fold our arms and accepting anything life offers us or claim what we desire from life?
 In God, all the mysteries concealed in life can be unfolded. That is why we should trust Him with our hearts, acknowledge Him in all our plans, we should not believe in our own ways; but in His way. Always be patient to hear what He wants to say before we take a step, do not be distracted during the waiting season, then God will order our steps into destiny.

TIME IS PRICELESS

Time is priceless
Yet it costs us nothing
You can do anything you want with it
But you cannot own it
You can spend it
But you cannot keep it
And once you have lost it
There is no way you can get it back
It is just gone forever
Indeed time is priceless

A REAL MAN

Trials of life always want to weary us out. They appear like a giant mountain too difficult to climb, legions of scary demons waiting to consume us, boisterous storm ready to sink us in the voyage of life. But a real man can see beyond momentary trials. A strong man comfort himself in agony of life. A bold man will stand in any ugly situation even if he falls again and again.
Only a bold man can see that the legions of frightened demons are mere shadows, a giant mountain is just a stepping stone to greater height in life, boisterous will only aid the ship of life in reaching the right destination. Real men are considered absurd by others because they see what others cannot, they feel what others cannot feel, inspire by what bring others down. Real men are so called by what they say, action they take, the attitude they put up; especially when they are sinking in the storm of life. They are stronger than any situation, bolder than any doubt.  They know that their depression will depress others, the expression of their fear and hopelessness will spell suicide for others.
        In the face of negative, they say positive things. In the face of fear, the speak faith. In the face of death, they speak life. In the face of feasible failure, they see outstanding success. These are the lubricants that ease the intense frictions of life in a real man.

JUST A MATTER OF TIME



I see beyond the past, today and tomorrow
I look into the future
Though gross darkness covers the whole earth
And it seems a new dawn will not break forth
Though it looks l am alone
In the voyage of life
And there is no one to lean on
But l look into the future
I feel the comfort of His presence
I see glorious days ahead
I see jubilation, celebration and merriment
Around my coast
Just a matter of time
I will get there
Just a matter of time
All the agonies of today
Will become stories of the past
We will all wine and dine together again
Just a matter of time

LET US PRAY

Pray for me and l will pray for you
Pray for the present and the future ahead
Pray for the good and evil doers
Pray for the genius
And those who are not so smart
Pray for the rich
Living in exclusive mansions
Pray for the poor who are destitute
Pray for the leaders and the followers
Pray for the aggrieved and the joyful ones
Pray for the young and
Pray for the unborn babies
Pray for the world of comfort and peace
Pray for me and l will pray for you.

I CAN SING




Despite all the challenges of life
When it seems l will not survive
When the burden of life has overwhelmed my soul
And it seems there is no escape route
In these ordeals of life
I can sing
I can dance
I can smile
I can be all l want to be.

In the voyage of life
When boisterous storms has taken over the voyage
The ship of life being tossed to and fro
And it seems l will not have smooth journey
In this turbulent voyage
I can sing
I can dance
I can smile
I can be all l want to be.

In the wilderness of life
When there is no one to lean
I cry all the night
With no one to console me
In this period of loneliness
I can sing
I can dance
I can smile
I can be all l want to be.

All l need is to brace up
Pick up my broken pieces
And make a fresh start
Though the road may be rough with gross darkness around
I can see a light at the end of the tunnel
I can sing
I can dance
 I can smile
I can be all l want to be.

CANDLE IN MY SOUL


No mind is blank of ideas
No one is an accident to his or her generation
Everyone is endowed with raw potentials
Everyone is endowed with wisdom, strength and mighty
There is a candle in every soul
All you have to do
Is to ignite your candle
And illuminate the darkness around you
Show forth the world the potentials in you
Ignite the candle in your soul
And illuminate your world.
