YOU CAN'T FAIL GOD.





I watched a movie today, "A taste of sin". it was epic for me, though my sister said it was quite boring. 

According to this movie, a man of God fell and at his lowest he felt as though he had failed God and God had left him. But at the end we saw that God came through for him. 

What stood out for me is in how we can't fail God. For someone that sees the end from the beginning, what on earth can you possibly do to surprise him or catch him off guards? I strongly believe that no matter what we do, we can't fail God. 

We often try pretty hard to impress certain persons, for example; our parents, mentors, teachers and even God, but all these is pointless, mostly trying to impress God. The negative impact of trying to impress the beings we hold in high esteem is in how depressed we feel when we match a line or perform poorly. 

I still remember vividly the term I decided to impress my father who is a chemistry teacher by doing excellently at his subject. When my results were out that term I was excited to show him, I didn't just have an A' this time but I scored 97/100 in the subject. My father wasn't much impressed and I realized that I shouldn't try so hard because I wanted to impress since it resulted in making me depressed. 

So the point is, no amount of prodigality can make us fail God, he knew that outcome was going to come even before you encountered it. Serve him and when you fall from grace, he's right there with an open arm awaiting your return(though certain consequences are applied) he's not disappointed or awestruck and he will not love you less. 

Dearest reader, Don't try to impress God, just genuinely love him. He's there for you, always. You don't fail him when you fall, he doesn't demand perfection at once, he's ready to walk with you into perfection.

"NOT ADMITTED"

Image
She clicks on the Whatsapp group chat,  Yet another "Congratulations, you've been admitted", with her heart heavy, she angrily leaves the group, minimize out of Whatsapp. There she is patiently waiting for chrome to load her admission status, this is the third time today she's logging into her jamb caps.  Her eyes almost eager with hope, she muttered under her breath, "God please" The network server makes matter worst by going sluggishly as she clickes "Regular admission status" she closes her eyes, hoping against hope, praying fervently, that this time it'd be different.  But it's not, because as she opens her eyes slowly, she's greeted with an arrogantly boldly written, "NOT ADMITTED", screaming at her. Suddenly the dam breaks.  Silently, tears begin to stream down her eyes, taking a rather familiar router via her chin.  The urge to throw her phone across the room intensifies, she wishes she could will her admission into exi...

TEAM WORK

Image
It can be quite frustrating when a collective effort results in only one person receiving all the praise. Even if my contribution is just 1%, it shouldn’t be overlooked. You never know how these small efforts can make a significant difference. My bubugaga is back from school, and today we did a lot of tidying up. It’s amazing how I suddenly find the energy to work when she's around, despite my usual laziness. After completing so much work, we took a break—we were honestly worn out. Fast forward to the end of the day: everyone applauded her for a job well done, as though it was solely her effort. It felt off because I felt I deserved some recognition too—it was teamwork, after all. So, the point is, you never know how hurtful it can be when someone's effort goes unacknowledged. No matter how small the contribution, appreciate it alongside the major ones. Dearest reader, do you find yourself annoyed like myself when your effort is overlooked in a team work?  @favvy_Ok...

LESS THAN ONE.

Image
There are days when my arms are too heavy to hold a pen, my brain too disorganized to put a sentence together, my thoughts an unending swirl of emotions. But then there are days—days when my smile can break through your screen, invade your life, and steal alongside your heart. Days when my excitement can be likened to that of a 2-year-old, where my inquisitiveness and curiosity know no bounds. Well, today is the latter. But like a poet I love once said, "Even if the light's turned on and my fears are not gone, I'll give it my best shot because the show must go on." So, I'd like to talk about something today: the idea of "LESS THAN ONE." But before we dive into this, allow me to tell you a story. ***** Once upon a time, I had a friend. You know that feeling of being friends with the girl every guy wants, so you get a lot of "Please help me talk to your friend"? In school, we had our lunch bought by different guys each day—one of the ...
