Paddle your canoe is a slang I learned in boarding school, it means to mind your business. In my head, the concept of minding your business by paddling your own canoe always creates a vivid image of a person frantically trying to paddle another person's canoe while sitting in theirs.

RESTING AND TRUSTING.
Last week was a blur, I was all over the place. I had a lot of "present but not mindful" moments, I had a lot to do with such little time. There were a few moments of questioning my priorities, loyalty and asking whether I was crossing the thin line between self-love and selfish.... Continue Reading →
TALK IS CHEAP.

LITTLE MISS COWARD.
You see, I'm afraid my creepy neighbor is lurking somewhere in the dark waiting for the perfect opportunity to start a conversation. Conversations are good, involuntary 2 am conversations aren't.
JUST A REMINDER!!!
This is just a reminder that you are not alone, Jesus is with you. He is as close as the mention of his name, he is nearer even than your very next thought. “Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of...

ONISE IYANU (God of Awesome wonders)!!!
The song Onise Iyanu by Nathaniel Bassey has become the soundtrack of my life because I have indeed tasted of God's powers. 2017 has just started, and God has proven over and over that he is my very present help in time of need. Believe people! He is indeed, very present. God is a God of... Continue Reading →
