The Christmas I Want to See

-

Glad to welcome you back, friends. Merry Christmas! Today is Christmas Eve, and as we prepare for the celebration, I want us to keep a few things in mind.

In this season of giving and goodwill, even as we gather with our loved ones, light up our homes with Christmas lights, and share the warmth of the festive season, let us find inspiration in the story of Christmas. Let us reflect on the true essence of Christmas.

Christmas is about God giving His best gift to us. He gave His only begotten son so that we can all be saved and enjoy an abundant life. In that life, we have peace, joy, happiness, success, good health, and all the beautiful things that we would ever want.

We are not fatherless. We are not hopeless. He said, "Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God, believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also." (John 14:1-3)

That is a word of comfort and assurance. We know our father has good thoughts toward us. And He will not leave us nor forsake us. Though we go through trials and troubles, we know His word is our hope and light.

As we celebrate this Christmas, let us keep a heart of faith and love. Let us rely on His word and promises.

Christmas is not only about wining and dining. It is also about cherishing the bonds that connect us, spreading joy and kindness, and remembering the spirit of giving that lies within us all.

This Christmas, let us step out of our comfort zones and extend a helping hand to those who have challenging moments. Let us embrace diversity, celebrate our differences, and foster a spirit of unity and understanding. Let us spread compassion, forgiveness, and empathy, creating a world where kindness is the currency we exchange, and love is the guiding force that shapes our relationships.

May this Christmas bring you and your loved ones an abundance of joy, peace, and love. May your hearts be filled with gratitude for the blessings you have, and may your spirits soar with the hope of a brighter future. God bless you and have a joyous celebration.

Merry Christmas with lots of love 💖💖💖💖💖💖

Turning 60 – How It Feels Like!

Welcome back friends. Thanks for stopping by. I’m so excited to share this moment with you as I celebrate my 60th birthday. I’m so grateful to God for making me see 60 good years on the land of the living. This is a lot and it’s a big deal for me. I have seen the Lord’s goodness, His mercy and compassion. I have seen the hand of the Lord in every area of my life. When things were difficult; when life was turbulent, the Lord rose for me, He stood by me and made Himself a shield for me. I can’t start counting all the goodness of the Lord. They are so innumerable and unquantifiable.   I thank God for my dear husband (of blessed memory) who served the Lord all through his life and left a great legacy behind. I thank God for my children (both biological and adopted), my siblings, my extended families, my friends, my colleagues and everyone who has been of great blessing in my life.  I can’t count all the people I’ve met in my life – all the people who have been so great and loving, kind and

Embracing A Journey of Resilience And Gratitude

Glad to come your way again, friends! Trust you and your family have been doing great and having a great week. Today marks the 7th year anniversary of passing to glory of my dear husband. It was just like yesterday when the whole incident happened. I thank the Lord who has kept me and my children, and has led us, and continue to lead us in the way of life and fulfillment. I met my husband at my workplace in the year 1990, and ever since then, it has been a journey of love and fulfillment. I knew my husband (Joshua Adeyemi Olojo) as an honest, meticulous, diligent, caring, loving, and God-fearing man. He was someone who loved the Lord wholeheartedly and loved people also. He instilled the habit of serving the Lord in his children, and made it a family tradition for us to always have daily devotion and go to church. On September 11, 2001, when the World Trade Center was attacked by the Islamic terrorists, my husband was caught in the building, and he nearly died in the incident. Thank

Welcome to 2024, Friends!

With so much gladness in my heart, I welcome you, dear friends, to the New Year 2024. This is a year that we've all been expecting, and thank God, we've entered it. Thank God for His goodness and faithfulness. Where shall we start? Is it to recount how the year 2023 was spent or to plan for the year ahead? I know that at the beginning of the new year like this, many things go through our minds. Questions like – How will the year look? What will happen? Won’t what happened last year occur again this year? And so on. But God is faithful. He will grant us wisdom and understanding to navigate this year. We will receive direction and clarity. We will not be confused or frustrated this year. For we know that all things work together for good for those who love God and work according to His purpose. For this year, we know it’s our blessed year. It’s our prosperous and glorious year. We will not lack any good thing this year. And the Lord will be our sufficiency and provider this year.
