About Me

My photo
Every day I pray and battle with my mission to start pleasing God and stop satisfying myself and appeasing others. Defeats in this battle have cost me a lot, where prayers, praise and God’s Word have brought some miraculous victories. It is not because my daddy is a preacher or because I was always in church, that I see God not as a casualty but a necessity. However, at 23 my experiences and understanding that IT MAY NOT BE EASY TO DO THE RIGHT THING BUT THE CONSEQUENCES OF DOING THE WRONG THINGS ARE TOO HARD TO DEAL WITH, have brought the Sunday school lessons, the sermons, and the prayers into perspective. Being perfect is unpractical but being young and saved is not! I've done a whole lot of something for nothing. But after meeting Jesus Christ I decided I would give anything to have Him as my Everything!

Quality Supplier

BIBLE VERSE OF THE DAY!!!
And God is able to make all grace abound toward you; that ye, always having all sufficiency in all things, may abound to every good work... 2 Corinthians 9:8


Every time and I mean EVERY TIME God has blessed me, I was left asking   Why has God been so good to me and thought this is better than I could have ever dreamed! 


So, whenever I found myself with something or someone and those two responses don't apply I have to assume they are not a gifts from God. 


I am always amazed by the limits I / we put on God.  He's good enough to get you a house , job or car but can't bring you a mate, provide a solution or be the cure.  GOD WANTS TO SATISFY YOU!  Meaning,  He wants you to lack no good thing!  He doesn't want you to go hungry, be lonely or in need of true happiness, joy and peace. 


We hinder ourselves by acting in a way that God doesn't want to help us and know what is best for us.


I challenge you to ask yourself concerning things and people in your life:  Does this satisfy me?  Does this person or thing meet my expectations and more?  If the answer is NO, then God has something / someone better for you!  Trust Him to supply!
