Happy Children's Day 2015!




Children are so amazing and so question-loving
Sometimes they ask you questions that leaves you stuck
You just stay put wondering how to answer them

 Let me give some scenarios

 Scene 1
Mummy and Hilda

 Hilda: Mummy why is daddy short?
Mummy: God made him that way
Hilda: Why did GOD make him that way?

 Mummy pauses and tries to think of an appropriate answer but as you know, Hilda will definitely have another "why" question waiting except mummy gives her an "I don't know" answer and carries on with what she was doing.

 Scene 2
Judith: Mummy where is GOD
Mummy: Up in the sky, in Heaven
Judith: Mummy, how did He get there?

 Mummy stares at the little creature in front of her as she tries to conjure the best answer possible.

 Scene 3
David: Mummy who wrote this book?
Mummy: Jim Faraway
David: Who is he?
Mummy: He is a writer
David: What does he write
Mummy: Books my dear
David: Where does he get the books from

 Now mummy is trying not to loose her patience.....
Scene 4- This was between myself and my niece

 K: Aunty Tope, is true that Solomon Grundy was born on Monday and died on Friday?(I do hope that's the correct spelling)
Me: Yes dear, that's what the story says. It is just a story
K: But is it true that He was born on Monday and died on Friday?
Me: I'm like, it is just a story, someone made it up.
And she goes again,
K: But is it true?
Me:aaaarrrgggghhhh, it is just a story oh....but you can ask your teacher at school tomorrow.
And she says...
K: I asked her today and she said it is a story. But I just want know if he really died on Friday.

 Me: I think we need to visit his grave side to confirm
And she laughs
Sometimes you hear, "Where is the wind coming from?" Etc
Their inquisitiveness is so amazing but that's the best way to learn

 ********


 I celebrate you all
You are amazing, each one of you
Powerful seeds about to blossom and explode
To all my nieces, nephews, sweethearts of mine and to my very own unborn children, I love you plenty much!!!

 Yspot!

"Hello everyone! How did April treat you? Today marks Grace's final post with us. We're really going to miss her. Thank you, Grace, for consistently sharing timely and insightful posts over the past 12 months. May you reap the rewards of the seeds you've sown. Amen!" Grace, we eagerly anticipate your return to the blog. *** This is the 12th part series of these write ups and the last one on “Moments with Grace”. As I round up, I would like to remind us of the need to stay alert in the Spirit in this perverse generation. 1 Thessalonians 5:6 says: “So be on your guard, not asleep like the others. Stay alert and be clearheaded.“ ‭Nowadays, a lot of things try to get our attention thereby pulling us off our focus on our dear Saviour Jesus Christ. However we must always remember Jesus our promised Messiah came in the flesh, died and resurrected, presently seats at the right hand of the throne of God the Father Almighty and is soon coming back again to take us hom

Hello People, The first half of the year ends in few hours 💃 I look back and all I can say is THANK YOU JESUS! The first day of the year came with the promise of a travel gift from GOD. It was so clear, and I held onto it. Fast forward to the month of February, an opportunity presented itself but the timing was short and it looked impossible cos getting a visa in that short period seemed close to impossible. I almost let it go but I was encouraged by some friends to give it a try. As I mustered the strength to, I remembered what GOD had promised, so I equipped myself with it, booked an appointment and went to the embassy, the Wednesday before the due date for my trip. I walked to the counter when it was my turn to submit my documents. The lady I met, looked at me, and asked: “when are you to travel?” I replied “Sunday”. She stared at me and said “today is Wednesday, its not possible for you to travel on Sunday”. I looked at her and smiled, please go ahead. She said “are you su

SEE YOURSELF THROUGH HIS EYES…. …She is far more precious than jewels and her value is far above Rubies or Pearls! “Why do you always walk with your head down?” I paused and considered. This was a question someone asked me some years ago… the only answer I could muster was a sheepish smile. The truth is, back then; I was suffering from what most people battle with. Those were the days I had relied heavily on my big sister in order to dress stylishly. To me, she could do no wrong; she was the “koko”. Now I’m not saying she wasn’t (she still is) all that, but I came to realize on time that I couldn’t run to my sister every time I had to baff up. I had to come to terms with the fact that I was my own person and I needed to develop my own style. It wasn’t instant success o and yes, I am still perfecting the art (it’s a process). I did make 1 or 2 flops (ok maybe 3….ok ok…more than 3), but this issue of style became effortless when I decided to try the “inside-out” approach…
