Waiting for the storm to pass

Dearest reader,
     Life is full of ups and downs as we all know. Sometimes its cool, cozy, sunny, breezy and all but there are times when its just stormy.... Real storm! That time when you feel it's over and everything seems to work against you. What do you think should be done at this point? Give up? No!!! One of my favorite quotes has it that "when you give up when its winter, you'll miss the promise of spring, the beauty of summer and the fulfillment of fall"
      My sincere advice is that you wait. I know waiting is not easy and many don't like the idea of waiting. This is easily seen in the bank and public gatherings where people prefer to take 'short cuts' and overtake those who arrived before them so as to avoid waiting. But in life, 'waiting' is one process that can transform and shape our lives. The caterpillar has to wait and pass through a process before it becomes a beautiful and colorful butterfly.
     There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job. He lost almost everything he had, even his wife told him to curse God and die but in the midst of the storm he said " all the days of my appointed time will I wait, till my change come". He actually waited and remained faithful to God. Yes, the Lord blessed him more than he had lost (Job 42:12).
     Dearly beloved, the finances, good health, marital favor, fruit of the womb, academic success, job offer and that answer to your prayer. They will all come with peace of mind attached. All you have to do is... WAIT!!! Wait on God.

Love always,

LET THERE BE LIGHT

Let there be light At the sight of light Darkness takes its flight For when light arrives It brings beauty And radiates energy  This little light of mine I must let it shine Noon day or night It must shine bright Giving illumination to my world Alice Asuquo

Dreams

Myriad of thoughts Running through your mind A dream of a beautiful and colourful future An irony of the present bleak and black situation Is it feasible or attainable? You ponder and wonder Just because you can't see something Doesn't mean it isn't there Keep your dreams alive!!  ~Alice Asuquo  

Fire + Ice

Fire+Ice Some are hot like fire;  Sweltering, tangy, hot and spicy Some are cold as ice; Numbing, frosty, cool and chilly Everyone can't be the same Howbeit, with tolerance and understanding We'll stay together in peace and love ~Alice Asuquo
