Me over the years,(2 1/2 years)

i am thankful

I got up and started looking at the photos we took over the years. i came across the pictures of my University family, that is my house mates. These are the people that i have been staying with in this foreign country ever since day 1. We have been through thick and thin, ups and downs but the most important thing is that we went through it all TOGETHER.

I am thankful and grateful for this family that i got here, i could never ask for better house mates because they are simply the best. I thank God i met them and i thank God for keeping us together. This and that tried to separate us, but we were not ready to let go of each other, thats why we still together and our love for each other grows stronger, as we get more comfortable with one another and we learn more of each other's weaknesses. we learn to compromise, appreciate one another, celebrate each other and corporate. We are three different people but we live as one.

They have helped me to grow into a better person, loved me when i needed love, took care of me when i needed to be cared for. i love these guys, they are the BEST!

and their blog names: the guy will be known as Bishop and the lady will be Missy.

Finally i did it!!! Here i am

I have been wanting to blog for such a long time. i didn't know where to begin but i had a lot i wanted to write about. So now i have finally decided i am gonna do it. i am gonna do a blog of my own, keep records of my life, my opinions, my feelings, my relationship with God and my everyday life as well as my growth. And all other interesting things that will pop up in my life.

I have lived for 21 years now (2010) and for these years i have been through a lot of things that testify on their own that Indeed Jesus Christ my redeemer lives. I still live up to this day to witness his mercy and grace in my life. I go through challenges in my life, ad he pulls me through it all, i get to learn lessons from him and i also get to appreciate him more and more every single day. It has been a wonderful thing having Jesus in my life, He molds me, He strengthens me, He believes in me, He saves me, He loves me and He brings out a star in me.

This will be a journey with a daughter of Zion, a non perfect Christian girl who survives by the grace and the mercy of God.

Today, i had Live Group and prayer meeting at Church. it was wonderful, and very refreshing especially during this exam periods. I try by all means to avoid books, yet again i know thats where is should be. i am writing my first paper on Tuesday the 21st, and i am still reading through the material. That is to say i am not yet ready for the exam. I am really tired of these last minutes studying. i NEED a change in my life. i need a permanent change.

1. To do things well in time so as not to be exhausted during exam time.

all i desire to do right now is to relax, watch movies, listen to sermons and just do whatever that will make me relax, but i have to be studying.

2. have a more organised life.

when everything is messed up, stress is creeps in, but when all is organised and done according to the organisation, everything runs smoothly. I wanna adapt that character of Christ, doing everything well in time and doing it with a happy heart. Studying last minute exhausts me and i am definitely not happy right now.

3. Aim for the best not average

Deuteronomy 28-13The LORD will make you the head, not the tail. If you pay attention to the commands of the LORD your God that I give you this day and carefully follow them, you will always be at the top, never at the bottom. God never meant for us to be average but to be the best in all we do. I refuse to just seat around and resort to being average. i know i got the potential to be the best, as long as i do my best, HE will do the rest.

Well, for the first entry, this is enough. but i am embarking on a battle, a fight against averageness and under performance. Philippians 4-13 I can do everything through him who gives me strength. He did it all on the cross of calvary, the victory was won at the Cross. All i gotta do is claim it and live it. Father Lord give me the strength to fight until i see a change in me. Until the is actually a change. Lord i can do all things with you by my side. I am tired of being the same and going around with the same weaknesses, i wanna see change and change for good, not a 2 minutes revival Lord. Thank you Lord in Jesus name. Amen
