TOTAL CHAOS



So I am back to blogging!!! Super excited. 
I remember this one time when I felt really low. It was at a time when I needed love but didn’t seem like I was getting enough. I needed money and it seemed so far out of my reach. I needed attention but everything seemed more important than my needs.
At that time in my life, even my husband didn’t seem to notice that I needed this attention, that I needed so much, that I was needy. It hurt, it sure hurt badly. This was a time in my life where I had quit my job of 5 years in the banking sector to have a baby and also pursue my dream of working with children (gist for another day). I decided to throw myself into work and started pursuing hubbys ministry, making enquiries about starting a school, and a few other things I had my mind on. The point here is that I was doing everything to solve peoples problems by providing solutions but was doing nothing for myself. How would I not feel exhausted and in need. To make matters worse, I was unsure of what it was that I really needed! At this point I had to deal with a lot of things. One of them was to learn to trust in God totally because I had tried men and they had failed me. Now, if you know me very well, I am a choleric woman and as such I feel that rush of BRING IT ON there is nothing I cant sort out almost all of the time. Well, I had taken things on in my own strength and I had no more strength to see them through. I was completely drained. Diagnosed with HBP cos I was doing too much all at the same time. Now, I got a job working in a good school but I lost it due to ill health. I was asked to go and get treatment so I had to resign. How did that happen? I thought this was the right path to my happily ever after? Went back home and got help medically and was told not to do anything but rest. Which I did (at least I tried to). Hahahaha. I eventually started an after school which was going well but in all of this time, I kept telling myself You need God in all this.
Always feeling exhausted and not meeting up to targets or deadlines, I eventually went to God and in less than 5 minutes he showed me Psalm 46 vs 1…..He is all I need MY EVER PRESENT HELP. Trust me now when I say I am so free….blood pressure back to normal, joy restored, happiness restored, everything the devil tried to steal, I TOOK BACK. No smiling with him oh! Infact one day, I stood in my room and stuck my tongue out and said devil NTOI like 3 times and I laughed so hard cos he wanted to take my life, my joy, my peace, my everything away from me but I thank God because He never left me alone. All I needed to do was realize that and everything started falling into place.
In other news, I am still working with MK and we are excited about the songs we are releasing this year (#NAYOURHAND)  and the album EXPRESSIONS OF GRATITUDE next year. Join us in making people aware of this blessing before it comes through. You thought SOUND OF HEAVEN was a blessing….this is an even greater blessing my dear….anticipate.
Hallelujah!  New song alert!!!

Wow!!! It's been soooo long since I have been here!

Issues with my blog got me confused the discouraged hut I just walked easily into it this morning!

Thank God!

So much has happened in the last year and I don't know where to pick up from but I will keep sharing as they come to me.

Keep looking out for them right here!!

Have a great day

My Terrific Three!

So today is very busy for me as have been the last couple of months since Kenn's single got out! Did I mention that what God showed  more than 15years ago has finally come to pass? I now work for my husband (among other things that I do though)!!

Have you ever wondered why whenever you are undergoing a challenge or rough patch in your life, people seem to vanish into thin air? Hmmmmm....I don't know how people do it but I am glad that I have had certain experiences and come out stronger. Most importantly, I understand covenant relationship and can seperate them from other relationships I have.

I thank God for the true covenant friendships I have. Gist about them is for another day but I assure you, they have been tremendous even when I didn't expect it. Even though I don't mention their names here, they know themselves!!!

A very good friend of mine once told me - "In prosperity, your friends know you but in adversity, you know your friends". This quote simply blew my mind! It helped me get over a lot of disappointments!

You see, I am blessed!!!When I seem to be in need of an ear to listen, a shoulder to lean on or someone to make me laugh, they just know when and my phone rings or beeps! "How are you?" "What are you up to?" "I love you" and the occassional " My friend! Am I your mate?" Lol!!! Just spot on! The best part is that I give 100% love and attention and get back 100% love and attention from these Terrifiic Three. No begging or cajoling! Amidst true selflessness. These 3 don't let me get spoilt; when I'm wrong, they let me know I am wrong - no apologies; they are not afraid to do so. They don't hate me even when I do wrong. They just know how to seperate the deed from the person. Not afraid to correct me neither afraid to love me! I love them and they love me with everything (and that's a lot) and we know it!

To my Terrific Three - I celebrate you!

Lifting holy hands

Kenn my husband is the most annointed worshipper I have met till date. He writes songs about his King, his creator, his maker and you can feel the passion in the words and delivery of his songs. He is passionate about God; he is in awe of Gods greatness...

When I met him, that was what blew me away! The passion with which he worshipped God. I had never seen anyone or anything like that before. That's what works for me! You know those days when you don't feel like praying, praising, studying or worshipping? I found my key...I just play Arugbo Ojo or Igwe (wait till you hear it) or Great Jehovah and I am immediately moved to worship, pray in tongues and look for God in His word.

The bible teaches us to worship God lifting holy hands...it makes a lot of sense! To lift holy hands and lift Him up on our praises.

My little Kendra practices what she sees! :)

That's love!

Its 3am in them morning again and after a very loooooooong day in Lagos traffic, I still am awake. The thots dat run thru my head are....where do I start.

I am happy, I choose to be happy. I am grateful to God my Father for the people he has sent into my life. My husband - Kenn. Ur ways are not my ways but I appreciate them cos they still achieve the same results. I love him oh! Hmmmmm...I didn't know this was how it felt to love someone and if I hadn't been taught how to by the best parents in the world - my Pastors (Pst K nd Pst M) I am sure I wlda gotten it all wrong! Love is about giving 100% and not expecting anything back. I know some people don't agree with me on this but that's gist for another day. Read ur bible (1 Corinthians 13).

Did I tell u why I was in traffic for so long? Hmmmmm...dats how Kenn asked me to represent him at a wedding on the Lekki side of town (I live in festac). While planning on how to drive down with Kendra (she's the best baby in the world! I am thankful such a stressfree baby exists and not just that...she is mine!!!), my friend drops off her baby with me to babysit so off we all go to the island! Just as I was getting to Apapa, I realised I had forgotten the IV and the wedding was one of those strictly by invitation events so I thot and thot (I eventually thinked!) Made a few calls and eventually had to go back home to get the IV! How I got home with Lagos traffic is anoda gist for anoda day oh! Hmmmmmm...passing thru surulere, I had a screaming baby and another for backup in the back of my car!!! On Ozumba Mbadiwe road, I had to park the car and attend to both kids. Kendra was hungry so once I fed her, she was good to go. 'My son' on the other hand, needed his mommy so all efforts to pacify him were rebuffed (even with all my mommy skills). He eventually ate (u don't wanna know how I got him to do that) and slept off! *phew*.

Thank God for my friend who accompanied me and for the fact that I was on an errand for my lord! I wlda just turned around for the second time and headed home.

So both well fed (I did some Jane Bond things), 'my son' slept while Kendra started her singing then slept off just as we arrived Lekki.

With all the stress of the day, I walked into the wedding venue (late) and really was still asking myself why I had gone thru all that trouble to be here when the bride and groom got up from their gazebo, with huge smiles on their faces and their arms wide open to welcome us! Awwwwwwwwww...it was worth every bit of what I had been throughh to be there. Camera's were flashing, smiles etc. I just knew I had done the right thing.

Why is there construction going on everywhere at the same time in this Lagos self! Took me a whole 3hrs to get to Lekki (include going back to get the IV).

So I obeyed my lord, baby sat 2 babies successfully, drove 3hrs to a wedding and made the couple happy. Everyone is happy! Including me! Irrespective of the fact that I was tired, I always get satisfaction when I know I ve put a smile on someone's face.

That's love!

Are you Wise or Foolish?

One of my sistas had a baby girl and got me all excited. Wow! We've been friends from primary/elementary school and here we are today - mothers!

It kinda took me down memory lane again - how Kendra came to us. You know, its amazing how God can take a seed and from it, form a complete human being! Wow! That human lives inside another human for 9 months before being brought out. Hmmmmmmm...no wonder the bible says 'there is none like our God; none can be compared to Him'. Nobody greater! He made an open discgrace of the devil by rising up from the dead at the very time He said He will!

So how can someone, anyone say there is no God? Scientists have tried (oh! Did I mention that they have failed several times) to create a human being. My dear, help yourself! I would rather be with a performer oh!

The fool says in his heart 'there is no God'.

Let it go....

Have you ever been accused/judged without a trial? Not a good feeling I tell you.

Have you been trying to understand why you are accused and never really given a chance to tell your side of the story; not asked, not even been told what you had done wrong. Rather, you are judged, maybe even punished before you even have a chance to understand why...?

I have been there myself and painful as it has been, painful as it was, I remind myself that Jesus was even in a worse place and he never got an answer to his question "WHY?". So who I be?

I saw a friends pm yest and it read " Sometimes the people who know least about you have the most things to say. Don't let their poisonous, fictitious words influence you.".



Set yourself free. Let it go...its truly not worth it. Your past can infect your future unless you decide 2 let it go.

1. Let go of your feelings.
2. Let go of a wrong concept of God. He is not your earthly father. He forgives and forgets. He has ruled in ur favour as NOT GUILTY!
3. Let go of what others have done to you.
4. Let go of what you have done to others.
5. Let go of what you failed to do. God is a God of many chances.
