So, three months ago, I got a message on Instagram asking me to take part in a book project, an African Christmas Romance Anthology. The sender went by the name The Eccentric Diva (Youtuber) aka @camaa_pearl. Eccentric indeed! When she said the title of this Christmas anthology would […]
Five years ago, I wrote Shame – The Devil’s Sticky Tape and talked about how the enemies of the gospel like to use shame to silence us from speaking the truth. With this post, I encouraged believers, who are imperfect and have made mistakes, not to consider that […]
Rachel’s Diary tells of her life after saying “I do” to her choice. Her husband and marriage are not what she expected at all, despite being a marriage counsellor herself. Through her story, there’s much to learn, unlearn, and search out!
I’m of the opinion that it is easier to say sorry when you don’t mean it. For some people, sorry just falls off their lips just as easily as they lie. But as someone who strives to be truthful all the time, I find it hard to apologise […]
We all do it, I’m sure. Wonder “what if I’d done this and not that?” “What if I’d been there or not been there?” “What if I’d listened to that person or chosen a different action?” Such thinking serves only to frustrate and torment us, because it changes […]
I think this is a question many of us are asking at this moment in time, especially with the pandemic that has swept the world. By us, I mean humanity, Believers and unbelievers, because even Believers wonder why it seems their prayers are going unanswered. Really, does this […]
Hi all! It’s been a long minute since I wrote here and even longer since I reviewed a book 🙂 Seriously, I missed it, but it couldn’t have been helped. My life is changing. In so many ways, it’s not even funny. I’m just trying to adjust and […]
Lately, the more I think about hell, the more I question the idea of God. It’s a strange thing for a Christian to say, especially one who once held strongly and taught much about hell previously. But the truth is, I haven’t felt much like a Christian, in […]
According to Buddhism, there are for four noble truths, one of which is that suffering is borne from craving, and I can’t but agree with it. Suffering is said to be caused by our “…attachment to the desire to have (craving) and the desire not to have (aversion)” […]
I’ve been reading the book of Jeremiah, and it’s filled with God’s proclamation of judgement, not only on the Israelites, but on other nations like Moab, Babylon, and Egypt. As I’ve been reading it, I’ve been overwhelmed by the amount of times God said He planned evil for […]
I am reading the book of Jeremiah now and, earlier in the week, I read Chapter 18. It was about the Potter and the Clay, and I found it rather interesting and enlightening. It reminded me of the post I wrote in 2017, How Humble Is Our God […]
Hi all! How are you doing? Welcome to a new episode of The Spotlight! I am so glad to have branched into reviewing TV series and Films now on this platform. I guess, this platform is more than just about blogging and books, but about the things that […]
I read Isaiah 3 today and was struck by a particular verse. 12. As for My people, children are their oppressors, and women rule over them. O My people, they which lead thee cause thee to err, and destroy the way of thy paths. I have to say, […]
Today, Lord, I just want to declare That You are indeed enough for me. In fact, Lord, You are too much! In You, I have all that I’ll ever need, Much more than I should ever want… Lord, I have tasted and I have seen That You are […]
Hey y’all. It’s been a short while. How’s your weekend? I’m back on The Spotlight with another review of a TV series I watched and took away lessons from. It is the highly controversial Netflix series, “Lucifer”, and after watching the complete four seasons, I felt a burden […]
