What follows is a transcript of a private chat I had with a hurting woman, who approached me for counsel on her marital problems. The issues were so diverse, that I couldn’t select the particular one to focus on for today’s Reader Questions, so I copied the correspondence, […]
My two year old boy is learning new words everyday. I’ve been teaching him to say “please” and “thank you” and “good morning”…and yes, we’ve also practiced “sorry”. He struggles immensely with that one. It is quite mind-blowing. How does he know that he doesn’t mean it…and so […]
Do you go to Church? Do you know why you go to Church? Hopefully, if you go to Church, you go because it is a place of spiritual healing, restoration and nourishment, where you do not only seek to receive but to give to others too. There are […]
“Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me” (John 15:4). Last week Thursday, I published a response post (it’s deleted now), following a post by another […]
God hates sin! We know this. We know also that whatever is not done of faith is sin (Rom 14:23). That is a lot of things we do and take for granted. As humans, we constantly find ourselves worrying. This is sin. Jesus said clearly “do not worry” […]
The story of ‘The Prodigal Son‘ is a definite favourite among Christians. We love it! I love it too because it’s the most explicit description of God’s extraordinary grace. And the lesson is enough to cause any that have gone astray to boldly arise and return to the […]
Sometimes, when we are set free, we are still bound by our fear. Mostly, it is the fear of change, failure and/or rejection, which stops us from walking in our new liberty. We hang around the familiar, the common, and do not exercise our faith. This is not […]
“I, even I, am He who blots out your transgressions for My own sake; And I will not remember your sins” (Isaiah 43:25). It is hard to believe that God made such a statement, because it seems like something He cannot do! I mean, He is the all-knowing […]
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life” (John 3:16). Do you know that? Do you believe that? Like, really, really believe that? Right where you are, right this moment, all […]
Yesterday, I woke up to a video on my Facebook timeline, that I’d been tagged in, of a child being horrifically abused by her care giver. I was horrified to say the least. I was mad as hell!!! So many bad emotions arose in me, and all I […]
Hi dear readers, I’m starting something new, by striving to answer hard questions on my blog through new posts, as a lot of my content is thought-provoking, and may require further clarity. I’m starting with a series of questions by Dina on remarriage. You may post questions as […]
“If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. When […]
For believers who are still struggling with accepting God’s grace and walking in their new liberty, after falling… Have you recently fallen from a great height? Does almost everyone you know treat you like a leper because their image of you has been stained by your sin? Do […]
Ifeanyi dashed after Mary, and caught up with her at the end of the driveway. He pulled her to himself passionately. “Where are you going?” he asked, looking intently into her eyes. “It’s ok, Ifeanyi. I’m not mad at you,” Mary said, looking away, to hide the tears […]
Dear Ufuomaee, Good morning ma, hope you’re good. Please I would like to ask you a question. I met a guy during my service year who I was just plainly friends with. Along the line, I discovered I had developed feelings for him. Somewhere along sha, I told […]
