The washing of the chicken


I entered into the house to meet the smiles of Miriam's rival, Lil. Her smiles were so bright and inviting that I almost forgot to hug her mum who had opened the door for me, all because I wanted to go give Lil a big hug. After hugging her mum, I went to Lil, and gave her a big sweet hug. I tickled her so much her laughter filled the air.

We got into the house and we sat by the table as Lil was about to have some chicken. She put it in her mouth and complained the pepper was much. Her mum asked if she should wash the stew off the chicken, but she said no and decided to have coconut candy instead. She munched with smiles while we tried to help her brother prepare for his exams. He said something that made us laugh, I laughed and turned to face Lil, but she wasn't there. 

*Little children can disappear so fast you need to watch them constantly*


I got up and went into her room. As I walked in, I heard water running in the bathroom. I looked in that direction and there she was washing the 2 pieces of chicken her mum gave her diligently with a bathing soap. I paused first before I began to laugh. She gave me the mind-your-business kind of look. I ignored her and took the bathing soap from her hands then reached out to take the chicken also, she released them to me after much thoughts. I cautioned her about what she had done before taking her to her mum. All Lil was trying to do was help wash the chicken and not interrupt her brother's lessons but...she ended up bathing the chicken instead...lol


It kind of made me wonder at the many times and things I had made a mess of while trying to help GOD. 

Remember the many times, GOD had asked you to wait and you felt time was going or you felt let me help a little and you did but you did it based on your little level of understanding and disrupted His plan. Little wonder why the Bible says "Be still, and know that I am GOD"

Our little minds can hardly fathom GOD's ultimate plans for our lives that sometimes we think we can help out but end up creating a mega mess. But His grace and mercy helps in working them out for our good. Rerouting and aligning us back to His original plan.

Don't try to help GOD. He doesn't need your help, just do the part assigned to you well; Be still, Rest and Wait. It can be hard but when you eventually see what He has planned out, you will be glad you obeyed.


Yspot!

Some days ago, I was singing the song "I know my redeemer lives" by Nicole Mullen. As I sang the first line of the song; "who taught the sun where to stand in the morning..." the words hit me and it felt like I was hearing the words of the line for the first time. Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?                                                                                       Pause and think for some minutes… 💭 Did GOD sit the sun down after creating it to explain what is was made to do or that it was expected to rise in the east and set in the west?  Was there a tutor assigned th e responsibility of showing the sun how to rise, how to shine, or to tell the sun the perfect time to set?  or Did the sun require daily reminders to rise in the morning and give warmth and light to the world?  I doubt that..😶 So, if no one taught the sun where to stand in the morning, then how did the sun know where to stand?  Every appliance made or created is wir

We all watched as JDee tried to crawl on his knees some days back. Prior to this, he had been doing a great job crawling on his stomach, but the guy just can't wait to walk... Lol. So he keeps pushing himself.  Lessons: *You will always remain at the same spot doing the same things until you push yourself forward.  *Don't stop at the point or place where others think you should and neither should you stop because of factors like your age or your sex, or the fact that no one has ever done it before. You can be the first to break and set a new record. *Keep pushing yourself until you are all you can be.  *Don't let the barriers and mindsets stop you.  Eventually JDee did it... He moved one knee and we all went screaming.  Why did we scream?  *We saw the progress he had made even though, some would consider it so little, but try asking a mum who has been praying for her child to walk after so many years, she would consider that a great a
