Mooshy Mooshy



It’s the 1st of January 2013 and am feeling all mosshy mosshy, church closed earlier as always compared to other churches...at least am not the only one who doesn’t like the whole cliché thingy.
Am not sure what it is; age or mood swing. It’s just me not wanting to get carried away with things that are just on the surface level...i mean don’t get me wrong, am really excited that its a New year, and am excited about the goodness and victories to be won in the year. I admire Paul the apostle, and I have learnt a lot from his letters; one that seems to trigger this post is that scripture that says “I desire to know nothing, save Christ am him been crucified.” 1 Corinthians 2:2...but then I also love verse 5 “that your faith shouldn’t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God"

I once listened to a message by TD Jakes that was titled the battle of the mind, and it was concluded that “...the mind is the battle ground”  Am currently typing this and am thinking to myself if  the cliché thingy is a feeling or truly an idea, now if its a feeling, is it right..If it’s an idea...is it something I want to live by, like would it be on of my values, am not sure if I’m blabbing at this point...I’m just really tired of all surface level activity and drama that does nothing but bring the flesh gratification and leaves the spirit more and more distant from its maker.

If we were created for his glory and for him and not for ourselves, if we are not sufficient to think anything of ourselves, if he is our sufficiency and if the ultimate purpose is to be like him, does it not make sense if we live for him, more consciously, loving him more dearly, really seeking him in  prayer, in worship, making our lives a sweet smelling savour unto him, Am typing this and I cried at this point really not sure why, but it just dropped to my mind that  we were made for God’s glory and for fellowship which is more important than anything and anybody. Am also thinking it would be cool for everyone to take their places in this race, it would be good to function in a place where we truly are vessels in the hands of God and can speak the mind of God to his people per time, a place where we do not lack direction, a place of Grace, a place where we exercise faith by the word and the world sees the results, a place where our lives truly tell of the greatness of our God.

Now between you and I hope this had nothing to do with being moody or mooshy, I hope I take it seriously and I hope you do too.

Happy 2013

Approximately 10 days from now I’ll be on my way out of India, and I just want to share some funny/major experiences. After I cleared from immigration and their likes @ d Airport, coming out with my luggage, I met this guy who was obviously Nigerian, and sure he was either a cab man, or someone who wanted to make quick money that early morning. Well, I ignored him! Am sure u are wondering why; well the manner of approach was terrible, he spoke in pigin, was too confident, and not gentle @ all. A few steps to a phone booth and I meet an Indian guy, who is gentle and sweet( don’t get nasty tots) he approaches me with a mannerism close to professional, but good enough to get a customer for the day. My call didn’t get through, and he drove me to a hotel, where I was charged 2,600 rupees, for less than 6 hours. Okay that was my first encounter of Indian 419’s……lol, as I later learned it was pretty expensive for the sort of hotel. Well I guess my expectation of the Institute, and the country...

What makes me think I have an obligation to keep writing and posting on this blog…well the answer is simple it’s my blog, and it carries my name, I created it and thus I have a responsibility to keep it functional; well if I decide to stop writing now, it won’t make sense to have created the blog, and taken all the pain to write, and post…..This is the way I view man and God. The other day I got into a pretty nasty discussion; we were talking about purpose, and this guy got so worked up when I was asking him about purpose. He asked me why I was asking him what his purpose is, when thousands are hungry; people do not have homes to sleep, poverty and wars going on….. At this point I paused, I had never tot about it that way. All this while it’s been about me and purpose, I saw purpose as a personal thing, I’ve never tot of asking a hungry child what his/her purpose is, I never tot of asking the beggar on the street what his purpose his. Well Deepak m...

Psalm40:1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

--> Its been a busy weekend, and I do not know where to start this post from; will just right about start from here............mama just walked into my room asking about a friend(and yes I answer shortly to cut the discussion..lol). Its been a waiting period for me and I am still waiting. In the last post I said I did not know answers to questions such as , where, who, when, what, why?.... Well for most of it the answer has been “Wait” I hear in my spirit time and time again, “be still and know that I am God” I hear “ Trust, Believe,Obey,Persevere” Waiting has never been something am very good at, so in this process I find myself falling and rising, I doubt and believe again, and my faith seems really scanty, at this point I ask God to be God. In the course of waiting I have heard God assure me and remind me of the infallibility of his word; but will I wait till the end(Grace). The truth is God's word never changes, it remains the same. There are things I cant explain, wh...
