MOTHER OF 1,2,3… WHAT ARE YOU ALIVE FOR?

MOTHER OF 1,2,3… WHAT ARE YOU ALIVE FOR?

The thoughts of motherhood and parenting is quite exciting for me, especially when I see the little humans in my care gradually transform from infant to toddler and then a child. Soon enough teenager and then adult.

It’s amazing how God does these things. We don’t see them grow, yet everyday they grow.

Our roles as mothers has it such that many times we are so pre occupied with our duties and work so much that we ignore a very important part of our lives. 

The motherhood journey is an interesting one. One that can totally bury us from fulfilling our God given assignment here on earth.

I realized from the very start of this year, there has been a very deep hunger in my spirit. The hunger to step out beyond my duties to the greater assignment I was created for. Frankly, I am no longer comfortable and satisfied with the excuse of “But Lord the Children, the Home, Work”. As genuine as those excuses are, our reason for being alive transcends those.

What is your purpose here on earth? What are you alive for? To get married and have kids? To have a great job and a superb income? I doubt!

What is that thing God has strongly laid in your heart to do?

It’s not too late to start. It’s better that it’s started late, than not done at all. Let the people whose lives we are meant to affect not suffer because of our complacency.

No matter the height we attain, even if we reach the pinnacle of our careers, no matter how well we think we are raising our children, we can never truly have that fulfillment we long for, unless we are among those that trivialize the things of God.

We are women, we are mothers, regardless, there’s a purpose for which we were created.

My fulfillment comes from the place of knowing that the assignment I was sent on earth for was done.

So help us today Lord. For those of us mothers that do not know our purpose, please lay it in our hearts. For as many of us that know yet have been complacent, please help us to begin to do that which you brought us here on earth for.

In Jesus name, Amen!

NEW YEAR, NEW THINGS….

NEW YEAR, NEW THINGS….

I woke up with this disposition expecting that by some mysterious happenings, everything is going to be brand new.

But guess what? I‘m still brown skinned, black hair, same flaws, same state.

Can I just wave a wand and have everything transformed?

I wish I could…. 

You mean if I don’t set the alarm to a time for devotion, I will still be on my bed sleeping? Right! 

And the character flaws? They are still there! They didn’t disappear with 2020. What was I thinking?

The courses I plan doing? Thought I would enter 2021, and suddenly have my head full of knowledge and new experiences.

Could it be that easy?

The job I have been dreaming about? 2021, am I in that office yet? You tell me!

I expected to enter the new year and have a newly registered business say my name.

Hello 2021…

Truth is I’m still the same person, and so are you. We have to consciously work to walk into that change we so desperately want to see.

For every of our set goals, our dreams, the visualized happenings, our aspirations, for every change we want to see in this new year (character inclusive), if we don’t consciously work at it, 2022 will still have us in same state.

For every single thing we hope to achieve, let every new day find us diligently working towards it.

Each day’s activities should take us closer to that end…

AND God surely would help us.

Happy New Year!
