The Lord is good!

 Goodness! Something we all look for. We all are looking for good things for ourselves, regardless on how we define it. The drug dealer is looking for his own good. The thief steals because he thinks it will do him good. The promiscuous girl have sex with different people because she thinks it will do her good. The adulterer cheats because he thinks he will find satisfaction. Some people help others because it bring them satisfaction. Everything everyone of us do in life is in search of satisfaction, in search some perceived good .

We all are in search of goodness in our lives. This life is tough, miserable with rare moments of goodness. Have ever met someone who is pleasant, kind etc..? Man, how much do we want to stay around that person, spend hours with him/her. Being around such a persom evoke all kinds of good feeling from us, make our hearts melt with pleasant feelings and temporarily uplift us from the despair and miseries of this world. Everyone loves to be around such a person and you never want to lose such a one .

God is such a person. The Lord is good! The more my friendship with Jesus grows, the more pleasant He is to me. The Lord is good. I have never met someone as pleasant as God. God never has mood changes. God will never betray you. God never rejects the one who comes to Him. God knows all my flaws and still loves me. God is patient with me. God is tender with me. God has made me strong. When I make mistakes, the Lord still accepts me when I come to Him. Spending time with God daily has made me wiser.


Spending time with God is the sweetest thing in the world . The closer you get to the Lord,  the more you will feel the abiding presence of His Holy Spirit within your own soul, conforting us. The Lord is good! I have never met someone like the Lord before, who truly desires my good and does everything to make my life a blessing. The Lord is good! The Lord is beautiful , lovely. How can anyone not love the Lord is a mystery to me 🤷🏾‍♂️.

The Lord is good, there is no greater love than  God's love, no greater goodness than in the Lord.


We all may think different things will bring goodness to our lives but in truth only a relationship with God will bring true goodness. Many things we thought would bring us goodness end up bringing more misery to our lives. But with the Lord we will experience increasing goodness. Goodness for now and everlasting goodness in the life to come. The Lord is good ! How can i not praise Him, how can I not glory Him and magnify His name upon the earth ? The Lord is good! To know God is to experience goodness and true love.  Seek the Lord, for He is good!

The idolatry of marriage: a recipe for disaster

 People are suffering, loneliness is rampant in the land. Many people in the world look to marriage as a savior, an institution that will rescue them from their loneliness. They think finally i will have someone I can call mine, someone who will love me with all their hearts until death do us apart 🤗. But the increasing divorce rates tell a different story. A story of marriage being difficult, a story of many married people being miserable , lonely , bitter and see divorce as a viable option to escape the misery they find themselves in. A story of many preferring to live together instead of getting married.  Marriage has become a scary thing in the land. Marriage for many has become synonymous with losing half your wealth and your children. But why has marriage become so destructive to many ? Why has something as beautiful as marriage become such a terror to many 🤔? It is because marriage has become an idol to many. Marriage has become a god to many in the church and in the world. Sa

The difficulties of love

 Love is a beautiful thing. Love makes life worth living. Love is best thing in the universe because God is love 😍. We all want love, we all want to be loved and many of us want someone to love. Love is very precious indeed. We sing about love, we write about it and we make movies about it. And yet love is the most difficult thing to find in this earth. It is easier to find diamonds and gold than to find true love. Easier maybe to find the lost city of Atlantis than to find genuine love. Many people have simply given up on love. They see the idea of loving and having someone to love them as fables for unwise and inexperienced children. Love is rare indeed. Why is it so hard to love or find love 🤔? The easiest answer is because we are imperfect. Being imperfect means we are broken, unable to perform the function we were made to do. Come with me on a journey of the difficulties of love. Imagine you meet someone, a man, a woman, the " love of your life." The woman is beautiful

What do you bring to the table ?

 Man and woman are both made in the image of God.  Man and woman are both valuable and equal in worth but are not the same.I repeat, man and woman are not the same. There is an attempt in our culture to make man and woman the same, it's nothing but a Satanic assault to destroy the beauty of God's creation . Man and woman are different for a reason. Each reveal different qualities of the Godhead. When a man and woman come together in the way of God, real beauty will be revealed. Man and woman offer different things in a relationship. What do you bring to the table 🤔?  Is the question many are asking when it comes to choosing a spouse . According to the Bible the man is to provide for the woman and the woman is to be a help meet to the man. A help meet is a perfect match for someone. The woman is to match her husband,  completing him, making him stronger, being strong where he is weak . The man is supposed to provide financially, security,  stability. The man is to provid
