CHASING SHADOWS


 We all are guilty of this leaving the real substance and opportunity.Leaving the right people who make us feel better, who know all our weakness and still accept us for what we are.

We always think perhaps they don’t deserve us, because they treat us so well, and it scares us making. We Leave hem in a pursuit of a greener pasture… lest did we remember that all that glitters are not gold. We go in search of the gem, diamond, sapphire perhaps ruby, hoping they will make us feel better.

Little did we know that we  were embarking on a journey to lower our self worth and value. We meet those we call Ruby, diamond and spire.

We get really excited, telling our self that, oh wow.. if I were this the whole world will see me in a better and shinny light… we get what we want for few seconds just to know that all that we wanted was an illusion..

An illusion of deceit. The so called Ruby, and Diamond keeps comparing us with better people, keeps consolidating on our weakness that we start to think… maybe he’s right… we get to the point that whatever they say… means the world..

We get close to loosing our self and identity..
We start to believe we don’t deserve the best and maybe its okay for us to become a toy or perhaps a fiddle.. not even a third fiddle.. I’m saying a random fiddle.


We become object of ridicule, just because we gave them so much power to control our thought, emotion , what we do and how we react to what other people say or think about us…

A Shadow which is often refereed to sadness and gloom
Which often at times lead to low self worth and destruction.

Next time you think about making a life changing delusion, make sure you are not about to leave the real deal… for a shinny cup of silver, which beauty fades in definite  progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future.

YOUR ROD AND STAFF

Image
Image from Google I grew up in Sub-Saharan Africa, a place with lots of plantation and vegetation, a place where Rod signifies  discipline  and Staff   Signifies Royalty and Authority.  A    place where everything is totally different from the status quo of the Western World.   9.999 out of 10 African Parents  use a rod as  a means to discipline their children. Sadly a child that has no rod to put him to order is believed to Stray, Stray away, Get lost in the wilderness of life.   Have you ever wondered why the Rod comes before the Staff in the bible, God our heavenly father, uses his rod to chastise us when we stray from his path, after which he comforts us with his staff after we’ve come back to him. He then prepares a table before us in the PRESENCE OF OUR ENEMIES…   Tell me , how better can that get? what more  can you ask for?  You have a Father that loves you well enough to correct you,...

LAMP UNTO MY FEET, LIGHT TO MY PATH!

Image
  WOW!!!  2020 AD(After the death of our Lord), I mean it's not over but we can both attest to the fact that it's been an extraordinary year!  Don't give me an horrible look cos the fact that you are able to read this actually means it's an Extraordinary year!, Our life has been transformed, for most of us forever!  Sigh! But you know one thing that has been constant! The word of God! During the course of the week, one verse stood out for me "The word of GOD is a lamp unto my feet and a light to my path" Let's break it down.... Imagine having a lamp under your feet? How is that even possible! But that's what the word God does. Having a lamp unto a feet  means  we will never walk alone,  We will never be confused,  we will never be in darkness,  we shall always know what to do! I want the Lamp! The word of God is also a light unto my path!  This is deep! well, it depends on the context that which you are looking at it from, in my own term...
