The means and The end!

I recently caught myself living in a way I would have never imagined. How did I get here in a few months without even realising the detour. How did I go from wanting to depopulate the kingdom of darkness and sharing the truth with the world to trying to get all I can and just flex. You know, the work hard, make money, get married, live glamorously, build that empire, be on forbes list kinda mindset without the end in mind. By the end, I don't mean when I die, though it will not be completely out of context. God is the end I'm talking about. What is God saying about all of this? How does this glorify his kingdom? How does this help people in this battle we have found ourselves?  All the things that distracted are in themselves good and maybe even noble. But I know, that I know that I was distracted because the end was not in sight at all. It was all ambition and it was frustrating. I was using God as a means to an end when he himself is the end. The ultimate satisfac...

The Lover

I finally let go and received this love that has been beckoning to me for so long. The thing is I have always been a romantic and I love gifts, acts of service, and quality time. Just surprise me and then be around. I have also been looking to God for my man who is going to show me all this romance while I do the same. I believe I'm not the selfish kind honestly (especially when it comes to love, I'm ready to give even more than I receive). I decided that I should just keep giving in every way I can so that the man will notice and be ready to give also. I started giving so I can receive and this drained me because  I wasn't receiving like I wanted to (the issue here is giving so I can be noticed and be given back. Imagine! πŸ˜’) But, you know how God is right? Perfect and amazing. He had been giving but I had been too fixed on how I wanted to receive that I did not acknowledge his love and romance.  I finally had a wake-up call yesterday. God has been right by my ...

Why do you want it? The role of perspective in receiving.

Recently, I had a desire that I believe God put in my heart and I just couldn't wait to have it. Trust it to be number one thought on my mind, top discussion topic with my friends and most important on my prayer list. I'll just keep rambling and hoping and crying and everything. Fam it was a big mess and I just didn't understand why God will whet my appetite and then leave me hanging.  Many times I realize that when I'm praying I get this question on my mind. Why do you want it? My answer is simple. You told me I'll have it. Nothing is more noble than wanting what God wants right? 🀭Then I back it up with the  best word....... "Your will not my will, I trust you Lord". I was actually just saying the "password" so he will give me already.  It's true it is what God wants for me. It is true I trust him. This particular desire however, if God wasn't involved it could have easily topped my prayer list. I hope you're following m...

Vision trip here I come ........

So for a while now (over a year) I've been considering going on a trip to a very unfamiliar place with a few people. Now let me tell you what the trip will be about and how I came to conclusion.   The aim of the trip is to detox and recalibrate . What do I mean? See below πŸ‘‡  We will have different activities in a bid to achieve the aim above. This will include sessions listed below in no particular order.  Gratitude sessions Bible study sessions Joy sessions Reflection sessions Prayer sessions   Adulting (even though I don't want to call it that) is taking its toll on a number of us. Many people want/need us to be available and deliver. People have high expectations of us and at times you are not just in the frame of mind to even think about meeting them. There is now a conflict of interest. I'm currently at a place where all I want to do is live out my life in Christ by faith and not consider even one external factor. I know this is a phase (probably a short ...

It's 2021! He came through πŸ’ƒπŸ’ƒπŸ’ƒπŸ’ƒ

It's been about 3 years since I last published a post here, well apart from the one I published a few minutes ago πŸ˜‚ "No strings attached". I found it in my drafts this morning, I read it and wondered why I didn't publish it so I pressed the button.  Anyways, welcome to 2021!  As we approach the second half of the year, I had a strong desire to write here again and then discuss on my Podcast. Yes I have a podcast and it's called "TruthwithTimi". Do well to check it out  here ..... The thought that however  brought me here this cold Saturday morning  is how intentional God is about us. We simply  just need to look to find him. Let me explain with a recent experience.  This week was a very overwhelming one for me. For some reasons I kept getting anxious about a number of things and it always ends with me overthinking. It got so bad one night and I felt like running away. (Don't ask me where because I have no idea myself πŸ˜‚.)  I  knew from the b...

No strings attached

Looking for good news today, check this out! You might have been having a rough week, month or even year, the future might seem bleak and not even certain. Honestly, I most likely might not be able to explain your particular situation, but I have good news for you. One which is too good to be true. The very same information that saved me as I found out it is 100% true! What??????? Someone has gone ahead of you to make sure you a live a beautiful, purposeful life. What he did cannot be fully captured here but it can never be undone. You are not  alone in your mess, many of us are like that. Many mourn and lose hope Many get angry at themselves Your past decisions don't have to hold you down, you don't have to live with it forever It's not too late to make better choices, it's not too late to stop wreaking your life because you don't want to give control to the wrong person It's not too late to come to Jesus! He  didn't come to judge you but to hel...
