"Stay With Me" says The Lord.

I will stay with you Lord

I will trust in you

I will hope in you only

To perform your word

I will stay with you Lord

Even when it looks weird

And things may look awry

I will not be dismayed

I will stay with you Lord

It's not laziness

Nor is it procrastination

Your plan is perfect

I will stay with you Lord

I will only go where you lead

I am tired of shooting blanks

I will not write that Linkedin post if you don't lead it

You have the best plans

Plans of good always

So I will stay with you

To know your plans

I will stay with you Lord

Even when it does not make sense

Even when I may look crazy

Staying with you is worth it

I will stay with you Lord

You alone satisfy my soul

You alone are my desire

You alone do I long for.

I miss these deep writings, where I can express myself to God without cover or performance.

Grief.

Every Saturday Even on Sunday I think of that day A day of pain, And unbearable grief. And hollowness I lost a dear one. One of the realest friends I have. Always holding my hand Advising me as a sage would. Praying over me like a mother. When pain overwhelmed me When grief overshadowed me When I questioned God why. I tried to understand. I couldn't fathom it. She loved God, was hopeful about her future. We had plans. She was young It wasn't time She wanted to get married, have kids. She has loved ones. She worshipped God with her whole being. Like with tears running down her face, and a smile on her face and speech that could only be a result of a deep communion with God. Her presence calmed me. Her words uplifting. Covering me. A shield by exercising faith and praying. I am consoled because she has gone to rest. I smile because she would now worship God till eternity. I have hope because we will see ourselves again someday in Heaven. I a...

Customer Is King.

'I am not going to patronize your store anymore, you sell inferior items. You are fake'. She said all this at the top of her voice, visibly upset. 'I bought expired yoghurt here. It landed my kids in the hospital for food poisoning'. People around her gasped. One lady glanced around furtively and returned the yoghurt she had just picked. I demand a full refund and I will tell everyone I know not to patronize you guys anymore. You are a bunch of fake ass people. Other customers looked on, uncomfortable with the scene unfolding. One of the staff approached her, wary and standing far off, 'We are sorry Madam, I have gone to call the manager, he will sort this out' Sorry Ma'. He moved away quickly. I knew then that if care wasn't taken, this situation would get out of hand. I also came to shop but the store had a good reputation and would not knowingly stock expired items. They were known for having variety and good items. She was fum...

Musings Of A Five Year Old ; Let's Rock & Roll

"My Kids are Special". "My Son is a genius." This is not to say other kids aren't, but it is what I reiterate to my children everyday. I tell them how proud I am of them. How I love them. Giving out lots of hugs and kisses. Now, I am not saying everything is all rosy, there are days we don't see eye to eye, when they play too rough and break their Granparents flask, or allow their Dad's laptop to fall off the bed, or the day they refuse to understand I don't have change for lollipop and they start whining which stresses me out, but what can I do? The core of my parenting is being intentional and positive. The desire to raise kids that are thoughtful, compassionate, fair, kind and who love God. In all of these, they are really cool kids and I am grateful to God for the privilege to parent them. That been said, the conversations I have with my 5 year old deserves a special mention hence the title 'Musings Of A Five Year Old'. They will be d...

I am so candid
