Journey with me through the molding process

A few months ago I found myself in a situation common to most young adults. Some find themselves in this situation earlier than I did while others go through it at a later stage in their life. As a young adult (maybe an eligible young adult), I set out on the quest for love. No, not philia love (a type of love that is felt among friends who’ve endured hard times together) but one which surpassed that. I in all honesty believed I could get whoever I wanted. Not only did I believe this, I had good (or so I thought) justification to back up my belief. One, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil 4:13). What a way to coin the word of God to justify my desires. Two, I believed all I needed to do was say the right words, knowing fully well that ladies are moved by what they hear. In addition to those two, I had read about the five love languages by Gary Chapman (I strongly advise you to read this book) and the importance of speakings other people's love language to th...

My strive for excellence cannot be discouraged. Neither can words, actions, challenges, nor failures halt me from achieving my goals. I am unwavering once I set out to achieve any goal. I am crazy. So crazy I am, I pride myself in my failures. I stay hidden and unknown to many as a result of my misfortunes. Yet I give up not. To some I am an epitome of the words "failure personified" In me you see she who fails seven times but rises up eight times. I possess the GOAT-LIKE attitude - always coming back until I get what I desire so strongly. I am addicted to my ideas and visions. I am called Passion . No, you dare not call me Passion. I am the complete opposite of her. I am called Profit. I am fueled by the positive and therein I am energized. Keep this source of energy ever present and you can be rest assured I will never retard. I take pride in my many successes which in turn yields much asset. For everything I do is to achieve one outcome - Profit. Yes, Prof...

Being mean is relative you utter out. No!!! Your opinion doesn't count.  This you yelled at the uttermost pitch of your voice.  Well, if you are not patient enough you might as well take your leave.  This you say with an angry tone of voice.  I am too busy with life so I cannot give you the attention and love you long for. This you proclaim in a cold manner.  You see me hurt through your numerous knife-stabbing words. You see my heart bleed. You see heavy tears of grief roll down my eyes. You feel the agony and distress your harmful words cause me. Yet you question if you are mean? You see yourself to be too perfect. Perfect with no iota of imperfection. Too perfect to be embedded with any atom of fault.  Spotless and without blemish you like to call yourself. You say "This is who I am and I can do nothing to change it." You dump the blame on your temperament. You hold steadfast to the claim that you are not mean. What ...

Ever noticed how quickly you remember your faults, sins, and shortcomings? Ever noticed how minimal you remember your righteous acts, love shown towards others, and obedience to the later as instructed by your Creator? The devil specializes in accusing us. He prides himself in constantly trying to remind us of those things we do or have done that doesn't glorify God. No wonder he is known as "The Accuser of the Brethren." The devil specializes in accusing us. He prides himse lf in constantly trying to remind us of those things we do or have done that doesn't glorify God. No wonder he is known as "The Accuser of the Brethren." Our reward isn't on earth but in heaven. We run a marathon not a sprint. Watch a marathon race and you'll realize that he who ends up in the first position after the first lap isn't necessarily the person who wins at the end of the race. Therefore run this race holding steadfast to His grace, which is more than suf...
