Divine Encounters

Many times I wake up and wonder what if. Have you ever just sat down and appraised your life and wondered what if?  I am sure you have questioned yourself all in the name of self evaluation especially when things are not working right. As I sat on my bed on Sunday and went through a conversation that I had earlier that day I suddenly asked myself this question "What if?" As I looked through my life that night I kept crying out the same question.  In the midst of the turmoil within my soul I was reminded who My Maker is. Friends cannot make you, nor can family, neither can the well paying job, or even a billionaire spouse, or being the most gifted person!! Only God can make into the person that shines as a bright star. Isaiah the prophet encouraged people to make the God the Maker their husbands Isaiah 54:1 . Get intimate and submit your life to God who made heaven and earth and watch as He makes your life. Unless you are walking in union with God as your Maker He can...

Last week I shared of a cry within my heart for change. I will reiterate that I am truly fed up with life as it has been and have made up my mind that a new chapter in my life is beginning. I am determined that I will make an impact not only to this generation but to others that follow.

Studying allows one to acquire knowledge which when applied correctly gives one wisdom to succeed in life. I have over the last few days been drawing up a reading plan to cover between September and December this year that will place me at the right place t...

Have you ever gotten to a place where you are fed up with the life you have lived so far and just desire to see a change. Over the last few days in the midst of the euphoria of being in the host city of the Olympic games I have become very discontent with my life. Now I am not being ungrateful that I am alive or even healthy; and I am not complaining. I just don't think I have achieved all that God has destined for me. I believe and know that I was born to influence this world for God. I was born to make a difference not just be different. In the middle of the night recently while walking the streets I began to cry as I realised that I haven't even scratched the surface of all that I can be. As I looked within myself and looked at all that God has for me I realised that its time to make necessary changes that will affect every area of my life. God has placed a hunger within me to strive for more and it begins with a Change begins with a cry. A cry for better or more; a...
