My heart's crippled by the vein that I keep on closing
You cut me open and
I Keep bleeding, keep,
keep bleeding love

Some people are so good with lyrics or with words I will say.🥰 ❤️

Valentine’s day reminds me of something I've been thinking about for a while now; how human beings are so talented at turning simple, beautiful things into full-time problems.

It normally feels like life is full of problems, but sometimes I wonder if they’re really that many or if we’re just constantly creating more. We take something good, simple, complicate it, and then begin to complain. Before you know it, there are talk shows, podcasts, panel discussions, people building serious careers around fixing things that common sense and a little honesty could have solved.

Communication for example; God gifted us with the ability to communicate in various forms what we want, what we don't want, what we feel, get a response, so we know how to proceed. We can create spaces that allow others to communicate, respond honestly as well, and then move on with life. Reactions may not always be positive, but clarity has a way of phasing things out.

In every aspect of life, I have never seen someone who is always a victim do well.
They complain their lives away. They never do anything productive because they assume someone else owes them and will give them the life they desire. 😂

Someone may have genuinely done you wrong, but once you take a permanent seat in the victim’s corner and dwell there, no amount of guilt they feel will ever change your life.
And, that posture blinds you to your own actions that contribute to how badly you are doing.

Look at communities that still blame colonialism and slavery for their current state. You would think they were the only ones colonized or enslaved but they weren’t.
Their fellows just don't whine about it. They chose productivity and the fruits there of are evident.

One thing I’ve realized is that most advice and information seems to matter until the actual moment of decision which isn't always calm and perfect. Then all that information flies out the window, and you decide impulsively based on who you are or who you’ve become.

Having a lot of information doesn’t really help. What helps is improving yourself, so that even on impulse, you’re still making the right decisions.

Your public display of the gospel profits. There is power in it. Your public association with the gospel profits much. Not this secret agent stuff.

Matthew 10:32
Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven.

Some of the most useless people are people who criticise and taunt people who are trying to get somewhere. When people taunt you, it is because they are afraid of you and they are afraid you might make it. Give no ear to them. ~Prophet Elvis

I used to be so irritated by people who complained about the cost of everything. You pour one extra spoon of sugar and suddenly they start, “Do you know how much sugar costs these days?”

And I would be thinking, Will this spoon magically extend the sugar for another month? Calm down.

But then I told myself, Maybe when I grow up and start spending my own money, I will finally understand them. Maybe I will even complain more.

So I grew up. I now spend my own money and honestly, I still don’t get it.

It turns out it was never about budgeting. It’s just a habit. A mindset of scarcity. And yes, it still annoys me.

Yes, I run out of things and there are dry moments. But that doesn’t mean I will hold onto a drop of water like it is an ocean. I swallow the drop and hope for the best. 😂😂

What happens when love quietly leaves,
and the relationship stays?....

Obedience is better than sacrifice.

It is through obedience that we truly surrender our will to His Lordship, because we stop being obsessed with what we do for Him and begin to focus on what He has said.

Sacrifice expresses how much we are willing to lose for Him, but at times it blinds us to what He is actually asking of us. We begin to measure value by our own standards, assuming that what is precious to us must also be precious to Him. We think that because we value things like money because of how much we need them He must need them too.

In doing so, we deny Him what He truly desires from us: a few minutes of our time, our trust in Him, our acceptance of His love.

We forget that true sacrifice is always rooted in love and love for Him is obedience to His words.

If you only structure your life around what’s convenient instead of what’s good, you’re gonna live an unfulfilling life.

We have to stop holding “convenience” up as the greatest virtue. It’s not!

This is true in relationships too. People are obsessed with finding someone who will require them to change absolutely nothing about their lives.

How can that possibly make space for another full person?

You’re on the other side,
The city has broken itself into distance between us.
And here I stand, at the edge of a promise wearing hope in silk.

You are too far for my eyes to see you, but close enough to raise strong doubt in me.
The aisle I am about to walk feels longer today, as if it knows what I am afraid to ask;

Is it confidence that carried me here today, or love coming to stand with me, to wait for you, one last time?
Will you finally arrive, so that I believe in forever...
Or will you not and love will leave me to shame for a companion?

But I will still stand here with an open heart, letting this moment decide our truth,
Because this is my final way of telling you out loud that I love you, though your absence will be your final way of telling me you don't.

This year was EXACTLY what Prophet Elvis said it would be; ...The Year of the Rise of the Mighty...

It pushed me out of my comfort zone; the shy, quiet one. I had to speak up, stand up, fight, and show up like mighty men do as they rise. I was shaken. He said rising would involve battle, but he promised victory, and true to that word, I wasn’t taken out.

Whatever or whoever I lost, and whatever was uncomfortable, painful, or added to my life, was either necessary for the rising, or their assignment was complete.

I made sure the people I love knew it, in the ways I could, and I have no regrets.

I became many in ministry and in dominion, and I pray that in the coming year, all that I translates into big MONEY. A lot of it. 😂😂

No husband, no baby yet; still a baby myself 🥰😂 but my friends made sure I wasn’t lonely. 👏👏
Now I am saying too much…bye.

Happy New Year! 🎊🎊🎊
And to those doing fireworks, please do ko near my home. Growth didn’t translate into going out yet

ChatGPT has been suspiciously slow this festive season when it comes to drafting my documents, yet most people were off work. 😂

I believe chat was too busy helping you guys draft fake love messages you don’t mean for your friends, lovers, and family. 😂😂

Anyway… Happy New Year! 🎉

The devil you know is still the devil, and the angel you don’t know is still an angel. Your knowledge of them doesn’t change anything, especially their roles in your life.😂

Marriage brings stability. It does not make life perfect. It gives life a base.

You wake up knowing where home is. You are not guessing who is there for you. You are not starting from zero every time.

Plans become clearer. Money has direction. Time has order.

Stability does not mean no problems. It means problems do not scatter your life.

Marriage gives you a steady ground to stand on
so you can build, fall, and rise without losing yourself.

BEYOND THE SHADOW OF REJECTION

To live and love unsparingly means embracing a kind of vulnerability that the world mistakes for desperation. Even then, I am not afraid to be called desperate, I don’t fear that my love will be taken advantage of, for the peace and joy of loving comes from the knowing that I have loved fully and there is no lingering regret over what I should have given.

Yes, I choose to double text, to show my affection loudly, to congratulate others, and to send the wishes that need to be sent. I forgive as soon as I am able and strive to see the best in others even when I am given very little to work with, because I remember that "we love because He first loved us" (1 John 4:19).
This is how I have been loved by Love Himself, who shows up at every moment of my day and loves me with everything He has, even the parts of myself I seem to reject. He did not consider His own holiness a hinderance to embracing my sinful self.

When i love, it will not be unbeknownst to you. Because i don’t love in a hushed voice. no. Only that my love speaks in ways that transcend the involvement of lips.

My love can only be fluent through touch.
