In December, I stepped away from the blog so I could plan for the coming year. When the new year arrived and I sensed it was time to get back to work, I started giving excuses. Second week, third week…. I sat there, believing it was God who wanted me not to take a move …
I don’t think it’s too early to set the pace for 2020. In fact I believe this is the best time to start activating our thought process for the new year rather than wait for the adrenaline that comes with the arrival of the first day in the year where we all scream and jump …
Can our minds ever get quiet? Pressing this thing called phone was my hobby. If my phone could talk, it’d have screamed, ‘Leave me alone for a day please!’ For many of us, our phones have become part of our lives. At work, in church, in the bus, on the dining table and even on …

I know you sincerely want to build your prayer life. You really do. I see that you have tried making plans to grow spiritually but nothing seem to be working. Today, you are on top in your communion with God, but tomorrow you feel so fagged out that you cannot even utter a word of …
For years I placed my experiences above the Word. It wasn’t a deliberate action but somehow life just happened to put before me several challenges that had me figuring out solutions logically and searching for answers from the society.
