Together.

Is there anything that you need desperately? Have you tried all you can to no avail? And are you at the point where you're ready to throw in the towel?
Well, dont! I have the perfect solution for you, pray. Prayer i tell you is the key, you need to pray continuosly starting now. Seriously, before you read further just shut your eyes and say a prayer to God in Jesus' name. I know how crazy life can get and the fact that sometimes it hits you below the belt. I find that the best thing in such situations is to pray. Remember, prayer should not be the last resort, make it the first. My bestest friend told me to pray and fast for the next three days, so i'm extending the same request to you, lets all pray together!
And believe by faith that you have recieved answers and before long you'll see physical expressions of all you hope for.
Major pointer though, you better be praying in accordance with God's will for us! If you pray for grace to rob a bank or pray for another person's husband or wife you are so on your own!! Take care of you xoxo!

Catch up

Its been too long!
I keep meaning to post stuff but somehow i never get around to it. Well i'm back now and its a very long list of drama i've got to tell about!
First, my knight in shinning is a huge jerk/oaf, he stood me up after i cooked for him and he didn't even call!!!!!
I cooked, i cooked darn it! Ok, i didn't cook because of him but what if i had, then he would have been a no show! That's just horrible! Anyways, considering how i mentioned i don't like to cook he probably had a premonition that the food could make his tummy run and decided to spare himself the embarrasment and let his feet do the running:). The truth is i'm not upset, i prayed and told God, "Father, i need you to remove anyone who should not be a part of my life from the picture, let the outcome of today reveal to me the next phase in the plan you have or don't have for me." I prayed specifically because he was beginning to take a lot of my mind time and i wasn't sure where we stood, well now i know he's not in the next phase so, "Hit the road Jack and dont you come back no more, no more, no more, no more, hit the road Jack and dont you come back no more!" He called the next day to apologise but hey, that ship has sailed...
On to the next one, my being propositioned! I met a man, he seemed quite nice, called often enough and so after asking and asking, i finally agree to have dinner with him. On the date day, i change into something nice, freshen up and leave from the office since i had to work late. I get to the venue, give him a call and he says come to room bla, bla, bla! Obviously, i saw red! What! i think just before i hang up and storm out of there. Seriously, what is wrong with the men folk?! This is someone i barely even knew and considering how long it took before i agreed to have dinner with him you'd think he'd tread lightly, so much for common sense! Nonsense, even if i begged him for money, couldn't he be a little subtle! Anyways, he proceeds to call like a gazzillion times and texts begging me to pick up my phone which i eventually do, and he gives a cock and bull explanation which i didnt even care enough to listen to. Come to room 767, hey!,now i've heard it all. Forgive me if i'm being overly dramatic, but come on, i didn't see that coming.
Ok, next, no, lets save next for tomorrow, i have to get back to work so i can blow this joint early, no working late for me today! Laters ya'll, xoxo.

Super Woman aka “The Rock”

There are moments in life that just really put a lot of things in perspective; especially as regards the future. Most times we don’t know what we want but it certainly helps if you know exactly what you don’t want. At least that way, you can make a start in any direction other than that you don’t want.
So, you might ask, what brought about my epiphany? A generator, a medium sized generator that refused to start! Yesterday evening after turning fuel into the gen (a chore I certainly don’t relish), I tried turning it on but it wouldn’t start so I checked the oil and found it was really dirty so I decide to pour out the dirty oil and replace it. After changing the oil, I pull on the starter but then the rope cut and in that moment I felt like screaming.
The horrible fact was we hadn’t had light in three days because the transformer had a problem and we had all sorts of things from soups to chicken and all in the freezer that needed preservation. In order words, the bloody gen had to come on and it was 7pm on a Sunday! Then the hunt began, I walked the length and breadth of my area trying to find anyone who could fix the gen. The roads were messed up because of the rains so I had to be very careful, dodging cars, bikes, strange looking men and gutters!
It was during my search that I realized how much I hated what I was doing, how many times have I had to fix things on my own, I am an electrician, a handyman and all you can think of on the home front because there’s no man around to help handle those sort of things. It made me appreciate my mum more for much as I get to do these things she’s been doing them for longer. I think awards should be given to single parents and for what it’s worth my Ma should be first in line!
She is a rock, she’s superwoman, she’s my mentor but then, I realize I’m not as strong as she is. I don’t want to have to deal with those sorts of issues, call me old fashioned but I want a man around who can handle things and leave me to take care of him and my babies. I’ve been known to be a rock and I’ve spent the better part of my life trying to prove that I don’t need anyone else and it took a generator breaking down to make me want to relinquish all hold on rockmanship!
I guess what I’m trying to say is, I know without a doubt that I don’t want to spend my life alone pretending to be a rock. We all need someone to share our lives with, the good and bad times. After all, what’s the point of a story if you have no one to tell it to? Well, I didn’t find anyone to repair the gen that night but someone promised to come over the next morning so I guess that settled that.
Need I add that I have begun fervent prayers for a gentle, kind, handsome, hardworking, churchgoing (true believer) man! It seems like a lot but with God all things are possible:) Laters y'all, xoxo…

I'm free!

So, i didnt go for the Tu face show, i opted to spend time with my friend who's travelling out of the country and i wont be seeing for a very long time(i know! the things i do and give up for my peeps:))
To the main gist, I'M FREE!!!! i wasn't given the boot at work, the person responsible for the mistake owned up to it and i got away with not even a slap on the wrist. Doesn't change the fact that i should have noticed the error, i'll definitely have to be more careful in future.
God certainly heard my prayer, not like he had much of a choice when i turned pastor overnight! Boy did i really pray over that situation, I wasn't having any sack letter after just a month of working there! Thank you Lord!
I gotta run now, catch y'all later. Xoxo
PS: I think i've met my knight in shinning and i promise i haven't put him on a pedestal, i think or feel he's the real deal. My fingers are permanently bent from keeping them crossed! Laters!

Mistakes.....

Have you ever done anything that made you go “What the hell did I just do?” There comes a time in our lives that we make the silliest of mistakes and all we can do is try to fix what’s left of a bad situation.
The truth is that worry and anxiety does not change or fix a thing so, why worry? It will take the grace of God though, to get to the point where we aren’t plagued by anxiety. This is because over time, anxiety and fear becomes our normal response when things don’t go the way we would like them to. The bible says however, that we have not been given the spirit of fear and it also cautions us to be anxious over nothing.
The thing is; I find myself in one of such situations where I have made a huge mistake. The mistake wasn’t mine but I take responsibility because I should have noticed it. It’s a work related issue, it involves money and has not yet been resolved. Usually I would be a nervous wreck but studying the word of God has helped me change in ways i wasn't even aware of.
I decided to put my faith and trust in God and have refused to worry. I believe that at the end of the day, things will work out in my favour and God never lets those who believe in him down.
So, the lesson for today is,” DO NOT GIVE INTO FEAR AND ANXIETY, EVER!”
Sure we all make mistakes, on a small scale that makes you go oops! Or on a grand scale that causes people to act like a plague just came in whenever you walk into a room! Whatever the case is, do not allow that mistake determine your tomorrow.
Right then, I need to apply myself to other things, like considering whether I should go for the Tuface show on Sunday since M.I is meant to be performing (yay!:) Laters y’all. Xoxo.

It will all get better in time.

Even though you've been hurt bad
Even though you've been betrayed
Even though you've been lied to
Even though you've been decieved
Even though you've been cheated
It will all get better in time. At first it might not feel like it will, but trust me, it will. The first step towards healing and recovery is letting go. Let go of all the hurt and pain because those that hurt you don't go around carrying the memory of the hurt they've inflicted. Most of them sold their conscience a while back so to them it doesn't matter what they do. And you're left carrying all the pain while they are free as birds!
You cannot afford to let them own you and determine the choices you make, you have to let it go, let it go!
If you can do that, i assure you, it will get better in time. I'm in a bit of an inspiring mood, so i thought i'd share the love *wink* Love y'all always.. Xoxo.

Will you be my ....

Okay, I had the craziest Sunday ever and it qualifies as the craziest because I got the proposition of a life time. Hold your breath, here it comes….. (Drum roll) “Will you be my girlfriend?” I mean, isn’t that the most preposterous question to ask in the 21st century? Scratch that, I’m past 23(note that i dont specify:)), I sure as hell don’t want to be anyone’s silly girlfriend, jeez my mates are getting married all over the place and what do I get, a “will you be my girlfriend?!”
I didn’t know what to say I admit, I was in shock and then I started to laugh, after which I said ok. Then I asked if an ok qualified as a yes, how daft was that? My only excuse is the fact that I was in shock, and did I mention we were in a car and he had a tight grip on my hand while the other was on the wheel and he had just finished saying how his mother thought he was a rough driver? Of course I said ok, I am not that daft! What if he decided to exhibit a bit of the roughness he’s famous for? What then ehn?! It was my rebellious spirit that refused to let me say an outright yes!
So, I got the girlfriend proposal, which I think is a bit better than the, “Would you be the mother of my children?” proposal from a total stranger! I might be wrong; I’ll leave you to decide. The tales we girls could tell of all the ridiculous things that have been said to us, and for what? Just to get into Jerusalem? Seriously! Come on guys, we are not that gullible! It is perplexing to say the least when some guy opens his mouth and begins to yarn absolute dust and he really expects you to believe him! I swear, just listening to that type almost make me long for the days when I could lay claim to the title “She Guzzler” because then, I would drink myself silly just to drown the sound of his voice.
Anyways, by all means congratulate me for i am in a relationship as i did say ok and have not come around to telling him he must be out of his darn mind. And to make matters worse he abandoned me by the roadside, and has already began to make suggestions about getting me lingerie that "he" likes!
I look forward to finding out how this sordid tale unfolds, meanwhile i may have just chased off one of the most fantastic guys i've ever met, either way, i'll definitely be letting you know. Till laters, xoxo.
