The Irony called Life

Life is in itself an irony
A cry sometimes could be a source of joy
For it could be the heralding of a baby girl or boy

Life is in itself an irony
The child strays off to his own hurt
But the mother watches keenly
For she knows pain may sometimes be the guide for him to mature

Life is in itself an irony

She would never have made it as the celebrated celebrity
Had she not put things once important to her to utter neglect
The gloom of her story built the foundation for her glory

Life is in itself an irony
The laws we set to bring us peace
Now fuels our lust for war and rivalry Continue reading →

A Splendid New Year to you, you and you and yeah… to you too!

To start off the new year we have got to pay attention to some basic truths so as to get the year rolling with a great start…

First, the moment you have an understanding of God as the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords some things just stop bothering you because the devil is no match for Him. This is why we need to continually work on our minds to accept the truth of the bible even more and to absolutely live it because in doing this we will definitely always have victory over the devil. You see, devil has no real power. All that we see as manifestations of evil is actually the power of God misused but if the people of God who have original rights to this power will begin to live in the consciousness of it then there is no limits to the power made available. To live in this consciousness however we have to get our mind regenerated and thinking right by taking the Word and reading it over and over again. Paying attention to the fact that these are not just words but are power containers of which when we realize them we access immense power.

This battle that rages on between us and the devil is one that exists primarily in our mind (2 Corinthians 10:3-5). So it’s like this; Continue reading →

The Christian gospel is a two-way road. On the one hand, it seeks to change the souls of men, and thereby unite them with God; on the other hand, it seeks to change the environmental conditions of men so the soul will have a chance after it is changed.”

—Martin Luther King Jr.
