HAPPY NEW CATEGORY!

January 13, 2015January 12, 2015Leave a comment

After we explored the idea of the weeklies category, the response was quite encouraging even though maintaining it at first was quite a hassle. However, this year we want to challenge ourselves even further by opening up (drumroll please!) the DAILIES category.

Here is a section with a set theme that will be producing amazing pieces on a daily basis. This means, apart from the poems, articles, quotes we post everyday you still get at least a post under this section every single day.

First under this category is the Everyday Jesus segment. You would want to follow this. This includes testimonies of day-to-day activities and how the testimony of Jesus gets us through. Get ready to learn and be amazed.

Also coming up also on this segment is our story series. You should watch out for this and so much more…

Have a great day!

GREATER WORKS THAN THESE!

Greater works than these

Hello!

On behalf of the Christ a Poet team, I am so glad to welcome us all to a beautiful year even though by midnight today, we would have spent a dozen days of this supposed New Year. Nevertheless, the year is 2015 and we are in it, testimony to God’s faithfulness. Praise the Lord!

One thing amongst many that makes me really glad about the year 2015 is the prophecies and promises it’s loaded with. I have been opportune to hear many seasoned preachers of the gospel prophecy under God’s Spirit to the potential this year is seemingly loaded with; breakthroughs, blessings, increase, heaven on earth and even more. I certainly feel this year, God is set to give us His best yet and I just can’t wait!

However, in the hype of the season God has not left us out and He gave us too a word for the year Continue reading →

Take 5!

January 11, 2015January 12, 2015Leave a comment

So I’m guessing when the stern-faced coaches say this in the cool movies, they actually mean Take A Break! maybe for at least 5 minutes.

Having said that I’m going to make quite a wild suggestion.

At every point in our life we all individually and most consciously need to take 5

Note: I ain’t just talking about taking a breather. I mean sitting down and resting (I don’t mean sleeping) having shut off all external communication and just muse.

You know we all get our fair share of twenty-four hours and yes we do try consciously or otherwise to choke it up and use the most of it but unfortunately, we forget the simple law of diminishing returns still applies to our bodies too. Its funny but this is just one of many reasons why you should make taking 5 a ritual. You may assume you’re doing fine and you can still do more. Even though I agree with you and I admire your enthusiasm and hardwork please heed this little piece of advice because you just might have a breakdown that’ll force you to take 5 or worse you would work hard, get meager results and wonder why.

QUICK QUOTEs

The Christian life is not a constant high. I have my moments of deep discouragement. I have to go to God in prayer with tears in my eyes, and say,
“O God, forgive me” or “Help me.”
– Billy Graham

The Irony called Life

January 10, 2015January 12, 20151 Comment

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
Though the stage is set and all is perfect
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 →

“But God doesn’t call us to be comfortable. He calls us to trust Him so completely that we are unafraid to put ourselves in situations where we will be in trouble if He doesn’t come through.”
