His quill doused dull by ice and cold, the cardinal hunched into the rough frost, green feeder but ate no seed. Through binocolo I saw festered and malnorished his beak, broken at the root. Then two: one blazing, one gray, rode the swirling weather into my vision and lighted at his side. Unhurried,as if possessing the patience of God, they cracked sunflowers and fed him beak to wounded beak choice meats. Each morning and afternoon the winter long, that odd threesome, that trinity of need, returned and ate their sacrement of broken seed. Poem by John Leax Rearranged by Aygaius.

We're a young soul with a child's heart An empty vessel in world act Like a whirlwind roaming about, In Christ, We follow a cause to stand, Our valiant leader In His love Did He command, Give of the strength of your youth Into the battle of truth Give him first place in your heart From your precious being Consecrate every part It will be a stirring challenge A noble work to try To make our life fulfilled Our dreams satisfied, Jesus as our example Dauntless, young and brave was He, Give loyal devotion Seek to serve Him With hearts full of adoration And your steps will He guide With words of wisdom And ringing answers For all our prayers and doubts He delivers, From chains and guilt Peace and pardon He gives Freedom from fears As you confess your sin, O God of our youth, Sterner fights of life we'll face Be our might to do right Lest we forget Inspire us to do thy will And to have true authority Deprived of pride Make our life purpose...

Dear Reader,                   The myths of our pasts were the legends of the old even though,they seem to stay ancient.The ways of our minds were also the strength of our boast. Sometimes our outward decision and the expression of our mind could be more or less greater than our conformity.Everyday we feel it, imagining it playing tricks on our minds.Why? Maybe because our five senses are still working.Do you think our behavior for values could change or our desires for goodness be shortened because of our past? Yes, probably.It could, that's what's seen now obviously.            Still on this note ,I couldn't help but wonder about the Adam and Eve scenarios talkless of our great grands. Where has conformity taken us to? Where has your present led you to? The shadows of our past are like whirled winds around us,they come and go depending on the gravity of your Believe, while some leave as the sun comes out.We...

My Aunt, Funke must have really stepped on Mr Steve's toes.I mean for him to have gone out to get a book for her.Actually, I read through this book and it was really captivating.So, here is a summary. If thi...

I only got one life to live and I' ll live it Filled with the spirit of God theres no limit So I dream I Dream I want to be used by Christ in some way Maybe it's to change a life someday I Dream   Dream Big One Life One Lord One Christ One summer It may not be your last one But what are you going to do To make it better then the last one I used to think i was nothing in the Lord's eyes I ain't know enough to be one of the Lord's guys Knew a little bible Knew a little verses Never made disciples I was so observant Other people who seemed to be doing big things For the Lord, I guess that he gave them big dreams A man will remind I'm feeling so behind They say the young will see visions But man I'm feeling so blind But then I heard of David taking down Goliath Small thing to a giant But he stilled tried it What if i can fight it? What if i can find it? The heart to trust in God and dream in stre...

As we go through life; we pass through many developmental stages which include childhood, adolescence and then adulthood. At this stages, different grades of responsibility are to be expressed; this will decipher if we are intellectually okay or morally upright; this also denotes whether we will be taken seriously, respected or not . Experiencing all this, we realize that we had received help all the way (whether minute or enormous).Take for example; Family preferably your parent, they cloth and feed you and if you were born into a Christian family they taught you the way of the Lord; Friends also have helped in one way or another irrespective of their sexes. Even though you might have encountered bad ones but their attitude or association towards you made you what you are today. Then   you started working, you had colleagues (even though you might not count them as friends); they put you through some hints especially on job related matters and to top it all, they made ...

I came across something so brand and packaged .I had a weird feeling at first and I still do, I felt inferior like out of place yeah! Really. Well, the whole context is I prayed and trusted God for providence and my future also. I don’t have two heads and am not perfect though as some people think I am. But how do feel when the real deal happens. I really don’t know…that’s how am feeling right now…I will get past that, I always do. When your first is gigantic then God has gigantic things in store for you. Believe that and more is yet to come. Shalom.

        'Not that I speak in respect of want; for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content'...Philippians 4 vs11 This is one of the stories I read from a devotional and I like to share, it’s called ‘the chocolate story’          Many years ago living alone, I suddenly had an overwhelming urge for chocolate. It was fairly late at night, so I searched all the secret places I usually had it stashed but came up empty handed. Not even a wrapper to lick! So I sat on my bed and asked the Lord if He wouldn’t mind taking a moment’s break from supervising planetary matters in order to help curb my addition. I laughed at my audacity and picked up a book.         Twenty minutes later there was a knock at my door. Having forgotten my prayer by then, I was shocked to see a friend from the street. When I asked what bought her to my house so late she answered, ‘About twenty minutes ago, God spoke to m...

      This is another story of mine I like to share; it’s called ‘the phone story’       This is situation became conscious  to my sixth sense about three-four years ago, I did not have a sensible phone, the one I had was nothing to write home about. Some of my friends told me that I should not bother answering a call in public because that will be too embarrassing .I tried getting another but it was not easy saving up to get another there were other pressing matters more urgent than getting a new phone. When I think about it now, I think it was because I could still call and receive with it.       Anyway, I told God I needed a new phone and I don’t mind him getting me one, from that moment I didn’t bother saving for it anymore.       Then a year later precisely on the month of January, God miraculously provided a new phone for me from an unexpected vessel (source).I was like Oh my God! Thank you, Thank you. Then I k...

The BUS-STOP story Not that I speak in respect of want; for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content. Philippians 4 vs 11 This incident happened in my presence and it got me thinking a lot, it’s titled ‘the bus-stop story’ I was at the bus-stop trying to board a cab or a bike to my place of work as usual. I noticed a man passing by his clothes were oddly off in colour, rough but not dirty, he even wore trainers .He bought koko,a maize pap (I guess his breakfast) and was on his way to cross the road, when his supposed meal fell to the ground and I was like Oh mennn...meanwhile the koko was sold in a nylon bag. Then I saw him squirt to see what he could pick from the spill, he was able to get a little into a nylon bag. When he was through he cleaned himself up and went on his way If it was my meal that poured away like that I might have cried. On that day God made me see something unusual and I learnt a lesson. There’s this peace that you feel or experie...

A feeling so strong At the same time deadly A canopy of want me At the same time reject me Started from something At the end got nothing A beg to digress Having wanton distraction A season of procrastination Had I known I ought to I should have… Regrets! An endless ache Depressing frugalities Revenging trends A balanced pessimistic loop Wrapped to ones neck Like a suicidal mind You’ve heard stories You received warnings But you said, ‘Time for stories Time for warnings,  I have none ’ Opinionated somebody The end nobody No last laugh Regrets! Common on Shake up your loins, I had regrets too I called them try-outs Learned the hard way But I’m all good, you see ‘No man is an island’ they say So, Whatsoever I do now I put my best I ask for advice I seek help In order not to have regrets.

 From the above titled Abbreviation, Swag is noted as a coin word to some specific people, has a happening slang. In terms of wearing a particular clothe in the latest fashion especially ‘jeans’ or being incredibly rich or looking good.     During my Schooling year, a teacher once said Swag originates from the time when many folks in jail were deprived of their clothes accessories especially belts, so these makes there trousers to slack while others lose weight instead, if any of them are released afterward they pretend to hold their trousers in between their legs with their hands and then start walking in a stylish way, hence the swag.  SWAG as they say is practically worldly but being the type saved with amazing grace having being brought out from darkness(applying that to jail or prison) to His Marvelous light (Outside world) it calls for celebration, but not with that kind of swag explained earlier, but with the meaning: S-saved W-with A-amazing...

At that moment when I feel so stressed and need a getaway, At that moment when I reach a breaking point, At that moment when I need to make an urgent decision, At that moment when I just want to Isolate myself, At that moment when time itself doesn't matter, At that moment when everything becomes still, At that moment when I really really need to hear God's voice. If not in a quite room, then it will be in these peaceful place, This is where you can find me... On the Beautiful side of the ocean shore The clouds moves gallantly With the birds in the sky Many designs in  sequence Along the saga of a worried face Radiations from the sun The ocean breeze Softness of the sand The wave of the ocean Releases a sweet aura Fishes in its vicinity Swimming in their satisfaction And the palm trees  Dancing in greeting Its stuffy fruit so juicy to taste And my toes Keeps nodding to the sand music Hmm, tell me about it Just lying the...

I stand in awe of you, Of a fruitless fault, With tiny white beads, Roundabout your waist, Not excluding my hip, And eyes glaring darkly, Such latent  heat, Behind the darkened  lashes, I assumed it was a consolation, But I did wrong, Within it was devastation, Surpassing my bone marrow, Pumping into my heart, My mood is sickened, A deadly illness, Affecting my Cerebrum, My eyes, hands and legs, Have packed their bags, They went on a journey of greed, Yet still not satisfied, They keep going, And I gave my permit, Like a living corpse, That I am. Like a river deviant, My soul is troubled, As the source, My body and mind, Took some time but, They came together, Working strategic plans, But this makes it worse, Still troublesome as the ocean seam, I became naked and ashamed, My hairs pulled down, Covering the left-over dignity, Hiding away the sun rays, But ears were left off, To let out the pains, T...
