"THE ONE" PART 2

Tamara reluctantly looked over her shoulders to the phone on her bed. She knew that both of them might have called or left messages. It is a good thing none of them knew where she lived. This time around she took an off app cab outside the club so there was no way Hans would trace her and neither would Zack. She looked back blankly out of the misty window. She was hesitant about picking the phone let alone turning it on. She wasn’t sure what she would find. Both men had a right to be mad, they probably had talked when she left them and discovered she was seeing them both at the same time.  The ding-dong from the door-bell startled her. She tightened her bathrobes straps.  Zack paced up and down the living room. He almost felt every fiber of the bohemian rug beneath his bare feet. He subconsciously tapped the rim of his whiskey half-glass. She still hadn’t switched her phone on. He has no way finding her if not through the phone. He paced over to the decanter and refilled the glass he h

*THE VEIL REMOVED* I hope you have seen and read through part one  of this blog. You have seen how I had issues with my identity mostly because God was not the primary source of how I saw myself. He wasn't my source of significance. I tried to measure up with people and hence tried to get those things from the outside of me.   Now here is a story from the word that will help us relate; In Mark 5:34 A story is told of the "woman with the issue of blood" as the society called her. You see society and our environment has a way of wanting to dictate who and what we should be. Most times these tags that our environment and society puts on us are so different from what God would want us to know about ourselves. It is interesting that the first thing Jesus does in establishing this healing on this woman is to address the identity issue by calling her  DAUGHTER!! That is how Jesus brings us to Himself and the Father, through giving us an identity and affirmation. That

Growing up, especially in my  high school years, I was having the best time of my life, yet there was this monster rearing its head threatening to consume who God had created me to become. The monster put its foot very cunningly into my life, I didn’t know that the words that I constantly heard when my friends would talk about their fathers were creeping into my mentality and the devil was using them to create a sense of low self-esteem in me. My sister Jane and I never grew up with the opportunity of having our dad raise us or even be present in our lives. My memory of him is vague, but the little I can remember is that he was quite friendly and caring. This is regardless of the differences he might have had with my mother. Down the line, when they both went their ways and I remained with my wonderful mother, I tended to miss him but I could not bring myself to tell my mother, I didn’t know how she would handle it. Fast forward to highs school. We can all relate i

Each journey begins by taking a step, well join me and let's start a journey,  let's walk together as we share what is common to every journey even though we may be walking different paths. The start of a journey is always a beautiful season, seasons are marked by new beginnings, anticipation, excitement, to some it is filled with anxiety and a sense of fear. Its a season that could be marked with mystery and longing. One thing is for sure, you must somehow step out of your comfort zone to start a journey. New beginnings may seem uncomfortable and unfamiliar but as you choose to make that all so important step, clarity comes, the fog clears and suddenly your dreams begin to see the light of day.  I have been meaning to start a blog since 2017 but I kept postponing for the fear of the unknown until this year when I chose to challenge myself and do things that I have never done before. True to the challenge I gave myself, I have done lots of new things and I love the t
