KNOWLEDGE GAP Dear Overconfidence, It's a shame,you know and a big thumps up to you! I really wanna thank you for deceiving me all this long. Thank you for your soft naughty whisperings you had saunteringly whispered to my ears about knowledge,I reiterate,kudos to you I also need to pen this,thank you for making me sit confidently on the surface of knowledge,not on its depth… Thank you for all the sweet painted lies you had stormed my mind with,I put it to you,you are wicked ,you are an invisible beast ... I think you were there, whispering to the ears of the indestructible man of Philistine,named Goliath— you were there deceiving him into a fight against the anointed one,the giant slayer,known as David You made his head to be chopped off,you are a beautiful deceiver! Dear Overconfidence,you are indeed a master planner... You didn't fail to employ and engage Mr Laziness and Miss Distraction as the tools needed to ensure smooth execution of your destructive goal, though it is d...

A little born baby

Father to the child, from your spirit to my spirit, I am super-excited by your words A little over 3 years ago, I must admit, my life was indeed wallowing in the stocks of pain Pain was fulfilling its ministry on my innocent body— tears seemed happy to have found a cool spot to express its duties There, I knelt screaming your name like a baby yearning to suck his mother's breast I guess I was screaming like the blind beggar who got healed by Jesus Of course, I haven't won a jackpot, that could get me a rare chance to behold Christ face to face but beyond a reasonable doubt, I have felt its dazzling touches over my life The supremacy of God has undoubtedly unleashed a rain of wonders in my life, opened doors for me without knocking, fighting battles for me, as if, I have placed standing order The wonders of God have done on me. As a matter of confession, the wonders of God has brought me to the reality of the fact that he is all I need “The greatest lacuna that could fall on me...

I FEEL IT COMING

A little over 5 years ago, a story was told of a motivational Speaker, named John Stone On this fateful day, he was invited to dish out a motivational meal for the graduating students... The day came to reality, he dressed up looking stunning in his jacket with a touch of sky blue—John had been known with his black big briefcase where he houses his apple laptop and a magical pen This time, Stone proved everybody wrong except himself — he squared up his shoulders and confidently walking tall into the hall, like a ready pen in the hands of an impetuous writer Stone, “an embodiment of motivation” descended into a human body Stone had just one white broad cardboard folded in his hands with an inscription that reads “IMPOSSIBILITY” He widely spreads the white cardboard and asked the graduating students, what did they see on the cardboard and they all chorused “IMPOSSIBILITY” He asked over and over again, all they could chorus is “IMPOSSIBILITY” The graduating students were confidently expec...

MY INDEFATIGABLE DEFENDER!

Light off, feet stumbled, and what else?... All I could explain was staggering, panting, and sweating profusely right there in the dark pit… The beast roared like a lion and I was trembling right there in the dark pit... Where to turn was the music I found arduous to assimilate its lyrics The end has come was the statement I silently muttered to myself… Beaten, trampled, and severely injured like a notorious criminal; the one explained in the scripture I knew it, I was gradually losing my breath and calamity was already building an indelible temple on my innocent body — very far from serenity Ocean of tears was pulling their ferocious stunts on my eyes... I knew an end has come and it was crystal clear to me that, that was the only chance for me to say my last prayer... As usual, the beast gave another scary roar to my ears and that roar got my feet shaking... The Lord is shepherd I shall not want was the verse I couldn't recite— my heart was gripped with fear! I failed too, to re...

“Severally I've heard people quoting that, “the downfall of a man is not the end of his life” I stand to be corrected, that truism is subjected to the man's acceptability In other words, the downfall of a man could lead his soul to the gate of extinction, if he refuses to bounce back By extension, I remember coming across two eye-opening maxim while surfing the internet today “It's on “you” to get “you” where “you” wanna be” Biblically speaking, it wasn't in the manifesto of God to angrily chase our first mother and father out of the captivating garden of Eden— They chose their ugly path through stark disobedience Their hands were twisted into turning their glorious destinies into a fiasco Through their actions, they dented the spotless image of God's promises They were already ruling as a king and a queen before the cunny serpent poisoned their everlasting meal of Destiny— having received a red-flagged warning by God With their hands, they thwarted the flourishing ...

UPSIDE DOWN

Turn the script upside down, the scriptwriter commanded. As simple as it sounds, that statement triggered up some memories and got me thinking... My name is M.r Godwin Martins, I hailed from the eastern part of Nigeria At the age of 24, I was already snowballing in riches and visibly registered  mouth-watering properties to my name, not only in Nigeria but also in the diaspora I was living a life labeled with many titles— spick and span, the youngest billionaire of our time, and on like that. Things were moving smoothly fine like the fresh surface of the sky... At the age of 27, I had an encounter with Christ, and that marked a big difference in my life, I began to picture life differently, I must say this, I was galvanizing under the indefatigable wings of Christ Like a tree planted by the riverside and is constitutionally commanded to flourish in its season, so was the exact description of my life Jesus is sweet ooo, that was the song I composed because accepting Christ into my life ...

A set of keys

It took me years to perfectly understand the instrumentalism of success, I have always been believing that I could achieve things all by myself, of course, I wouldn't shy away from the fact that everyone should strive to be an individualist To a great extent, to be an individualist is one of the core goals, a goal-getter must develop himself to be if he desires to strive beyond the principle of “going-concern and entity concept”— I know that won't be a tedious task for an accounting student to assimilate I also remember a course well taken by one of my quick-witted lecturers, Mr. Omolewu; the course titled Principles of Cooperative Society and that was so many years ago. In his hand-out, he clearly defined cooperative society as a society whose effort is geared towards achieving what is individually impossible for its members And also, you will equally agree with me that, “a tree can not make a forest” “The power of a forest is not in one, it is inseparably connected” The chirp...
