My Fears

Image
I really do not not get scared much being the kind of person that analyses everything I come across. When I find myself in situations that may seem to be a bother, I don't even think about them much, I just pick one of the first two ideas that pops in my head and I'm good to go. I love my self so much, the way I do things and the way I think. When I do some things, they are so odd to people but hey! I am Lisa not your clone. People expect so much from others when they do little themselves. Well, back to the real issue. Fears!!! We all are afraid of at least one thing, I am afraid of more than one. Sometimes these things keep me awake at night, or make me act crazy in the dark especially after a horror movie. Jesus, I hate those things, they just don't leave your head for a very long time! I don't know about you but even if you give me a million dollars I don't think I'd want to watch one...*coughs*. Apart from being scared after watching a horror movie, ...

Grace!!!

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men - Titus 2:11. It's been a while I worshipped with my brethren, Church was awesome today...the atmosphere was filled with Minshe (happiness, joy).

Here are some ways we take God's grace in vain. 1. When we behave as if we owe God nothing. 2. When we've not been trained in his ways. 3. When we are ashamed of his gospel. I immediately began to check the category I fall in and I realise sometimes I am ashamed of his gospel. I think it's time I conquer that, and live a life that would reflect Christ, (Matthew 5:16). It's not gonna be easy with all the temptations in the world today, but I'm glad I re...

Mistakes!!!

Everyone  makes mistakes....everything has a flaw. Mistakes to me, are inevitable. When you try to perfect something in your own way and another finds imperfection in it, could be frustrating. We all make mistakes, it could be behavioural, or simply our lifestyles. When we make mistakes and are corrected, it is sometimes very hard to first accept it, and finally when we see it is truly a mistake, we may not want to take corrections rendered because of either pride/ego, anger, foolishness or other reasons. I've made a lot of mistakes, but I do not condemn myself, they make me stronger and better because I try to accept and correct them. Sometimes these mistakes turn out to be the best things for us after all. I usually have conversations with myself (I know I'm crazy) and I thank God for letting me make some of these mistakes because I would not have gained so much knowledge from them, even those that are really evil....Yes, evil!. I became serious with my writing because of on...
