Fire for fire 🔥

Maybe you made a commitment to no longer fornicate or masturbate. Unfortunately, you keep slipping into the habit again and again. Right after committing the act, the last thing on your mind is to pray, read your Bible or go to church. It is shameful to open up to someone and it is especially hard…
Burn that schedule

You may not understand what I am about to tell you now, but some day, you will. Real life, rich and full of adventures, the kind that makes you wander through life like a playful child- sort of carefree, a life full of positive suspense… Such a life hardly exist in something you plan for…
Seasons

You are like a tree. If you keep moving from one job to another, from one church to another, from one country to another, from one relationship to another or switching businesses every now and then, you won’t give yourself the opportunity to grow. Give everything a chance. Give that relationship a chance. Give that…
Patience

A farmer has a cutlass in hand, before him stretches of grass to be mowed. The heat from the sun is enervating, yet he pays no attention. He pays no attention, to his aching back and waist. He is not discouraged by the little work done so far as against the vast unfinished job ahead.…
I have a dream

I want to become so wealthy that when anyone in my generation look ahead into the future, it will be impossible to see someone surpassing me in wealth and fame. I do not want to be only famous, I also want to be highly respected. That is why I want to engage in respectable means…
Audacity and Legacies

They will say you are unrealistic.

They will associate pride with your ambitious spirit. Let them. Dogs are barking. Throw no stone. Continue…
Play to be remembered

Pay attention to the things that fascinate you. Pay attention to the things that greatly inspire you. Pay attention to the things you find mentally-stimulating and thought-provoking. Be curious to find out things for yourself. For every truth out there, we’ve all got to write our own versions and live our interpretations of them. Never…
I wonder

She cheated on her husband and I was curious to know how and why it happened. It could not have been in her home. She and her husband hardly receive visitors. The neighbors would have found it suspicious that a man paid her a visit while her husband was away at work. Being the gifted…
Come back

He no longer believes in their relationship. He’s taken his bag and fled. No word. Not even a goodbye. She’s heard he is in Togo. She stands in church today, a microphone in hand, in tears. Testimony time. Let her enemies know that despite the efforts to kill her joy, she will still smile, even…
RASTA

For the entire night, visions of Diallo’s Barber Shop traumatized Ras Jungblé in his sleep. “Barber Shop! Barber Shop! Barber Shop!” The words rang loud and maddened his anxiety. He sat up with a jolt. As he stood up to his window and gazed at the barber shop in the distance, he saw nothing but…
