If You Can Dream It

        Never downgrade your dream to match your reality...

It's another beautiful day and I am happy to be able to share my inner thoughts with you once again.

I recently saw the above quote somewhere and it has stuck to my heart ever since. I have allowed my mind to dwell on it so much so that it has given me renewed faith and strength to keep going. Also, by sharing my thoughts on this quote today, I believe I'll be helping someone. 

At childhood, we live in this world of dreams, where everything is possible but as we grow into adulthood, we realise that life doesn't always go as planned. Life happens to all our childhood plans and dreams and they begin to change before our very eyes; things don't go our way, results take longer-than-expected time to materialise, we begin to face one setback after another. Then, we start to doubt our abilities, we lose confidence in our dreams and we ask ourself, 'who am I to dream such big dreams?' Eventually, we are tempted to put away what we actually want and settle for something lesser. I want to encourage you today to never fall for that temptation!

From the Bible days till now, and till the kingdom come, every successful person has always experienced the 'down' season; when their reality didn't match what they dreamt of, when they had questioned their dreams. Guess what! What made the difference between them and those who failed is that they never stopped dreaming 'big'. They never allowed the storm around them (their circumstances) to intimidate them into settling for a low-life. 

        No matter where you're from, your dreams are valid

       Lupita Nyong'o

Yes, we must never forget that God is the one who will bring our dreams to reality but He will have nothing to work with if we refuse to use our minds to dream and work towards our dreams. Infact, He said He is able to do more than we can ever think or imagine; so, stop limiting God! Don't let your present weigh you down, don't let it snatch the possibilities of the future from you! You'll reach your dreams only if you don't give up. 

Here are some Bible verses to help you more on this topic: Proverbs 3:5-7, Ephesians 3:20, Genesis 37, 41, 45 (the story of Joseph). 

Shalom!

Inside-Out

 Hello! I'm excited to be sharing my first post with you today!  I caught this beautiful interpretation to Romans chapter 12 since June. I believe you'll love to go back and study it after reading these lines. The chapter does not only admonish us to not commit fornication or adultery or those other obvious sins as we may want to explain; but as christians whose spirits are already yielded to the things of God, we must intentionally make our bodies yield too. Romans 12 talks about how christians should lay better examples for the world; how we should be pacesetters and not 'copycats'. The world would expect us to imbibe some certain conducts or behave in some certain ways, we shouldn't be deceived, we are meant to dictate the tune of things.  Christians are people whose inward transformation controls their outward conducts. They live Inside-Out. We should control the world and not the other way round. In the second verse, we would see that we are the ones supposed t

Why She Stood Out

God's masterpiece, Ever wondered why Esther won the heart of the King Ahasuerus and became queen in a foreign land? Have you ever asked what she did differently that made her stand out from the crowd of beautiful young ladies presented to the king? I will be dwelling on Esther chapter 2 to explain three attributes I discovered that made Esther fit for the palace. First, along with the other maidens, she was described as a fair young virgin. Looking closely into what those three words mean, Esther was one of the few young ladies who had pleasing appearances, youthful and who kept themselves. In a nutshell, Esther was uncontaminated. She kept her heart, not allowing the ungodly culture of the provinces of Persia and Media to snatch away her heritage as a child of God. Also, Esther was a girl who put herself under authority. She always followed the instructions of her foster father, Mordecai; the Bible records that she still did even after she had become queen. In the same vein, she h
