TOUGH YEAR?

Sunday, 31 December 2017



Having that question in mind, along with some thoughts and major reflections on the last 364 days, pondering on all my plans, my hopes, my goals, my petitions, my works, my decisions, my actions, my inactions for 2017,....I reached out for my phone and saw a message from an ex colleague that said:-


In that moment, I realized that however the year 2017 may have been, good, bad, ugly, fair, unfair, rough, unarchieving, wasted, stunted, challenging, stagnant, hopeless, fruitless, reckless, toxic,....what really matters is this "You are still here and there is still hope"

"For I know the plans I have for you" declares the lord, plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future Jeremiah 29:11

You may have had a tough year, it may have been just another wasted year, you may have failed in archiving your goals, you may have had your dreams come crushing down on you, you may have failed on every genuine effort, you may have lost a lot, you may have backslided or made bad decisions that cost you a fortune, you may have given up entirely but guess what? God is not done with you yet. How do I know this? Honey, proverbs 4:18 says:

"The path of the righteous is as a shinny light. It shines brighter and brighter unto the perfect day"

This means that your past was designed to be a shade darker than your future. This also means that, according to God's mastery and jurisdiction, your past shall by no means be brighter than your future. For if your past is brightest, then what light you got left for your future?

It is easy to talk and think about the things that went wrong, it is easy to say it didn't work out, so I give up, it is easy to say well I tried and did my best, its easy to complain and look at the negatives but we forget that where we are isn't where we used to be. We forget that the very thing we reject today was our greatest desire yesterday, we forget that 2017 was once the year we looked forward to. And so we hang unto those negatives.. 2017 was a waste!!.


Sweety, What about your health? What about your life? What about the job that annoys you but puts food on the table? What about the family that scolds and naggs you but still has your back any day? what about the amazing man who cant clean up after himself, or help you out with your constant neediness and tantrumps but supports you, stands by you no matter what, prays for and with you, then comes home to you as wife? What about the beautiful hearted woman who constantly gets on your nerves with words or calls you out on your crap but shows you love by actions, stays loyal, supports your dreams and vision, encourages you, loves nd cares for you, manages and maintains your home and family? Did I mention Grace? Yeah! What about that too? What about the love of God? What about that night you was drunk driving but he kept you anyways? What about the test you failed to prep for but you passed anyways? How about the news darling? What about the fights, the accidents, the extortions, the killings, the kidnaps, the bomblasts that made it to your eyes and ears as "Stories that touch"? How about the battles that were fought while you closed your eyes to sleep? How about the numerous trips that were successful?And the days you had food enough to feed your dog? What about the cross? What about the mistakes we make that constantly nail him back to the cross but he shows us Mercy anyways? What about his promises? What about the lessons?


Love, before you conclude on your 2017, remember that there is so much to be thankful for and there's much more to look forward to in 2018 if only we can focus on God and trust him with the wheels.

I may not have had the best year but I know better years are ahead and just as my colleague said, 2018 is gonna be fun! I know this! But guess what? It will come with its challenges and obstacles too but that's why we walk by faith and not by sight. I'm excited for the new year..more so because, I've got God as my Hope....and so have you.

Happy new year guys!


THAT FESTIVE FEELING!!!

Thursday, 21 December 2017

It’s Christmas; it’s Christmas! The day we’ve waited for all year is finally here! If you’re anything like me, you're most likely looking forward to the special item number 7.
My Excitement when Food just dropped by.
The holidays have completely snuck up on me this year. I feel like it was just yesterday that we were turning the clock back and now, here we are with just a few days to go.

There's a lot to do at this time of the year with just 3 days left. Here is how I plan to make the most of my Christmas.

This Christmas, I've decided I'm going to enjoy it. Sounds so obvious...or no? Okay, but like everything in life,- you get out what you put in. So this year, I'm putting in a relaxed, happy approach with the hope that at the end of Christmas day, thats exactly what I'd have got out of it- a lovely, relaxed happy day with family. A Christmas that we'll remember for all the right reasons.

Hmmmm...the right reasons!.. Could the right menu be part of the reasons? Oh YES! Ofcos. What's a Christmas without a Menu?.. The right Menu?

So this Christmas, I decided I'd be a little different and more involved with the planning and preparation process...in a very relaxed way though. Christmas is usually spent simply and quietly in my house with the usual regular Christmas meals. - Jollof rice, fried rice and salad, along with some protein and some juice.

Now I'm most definitely not the cook In my clan but somehow, some occasions like Christmas and "Chef Sophs moments", I get loose in the kitchen..quite scary I must say.
This year, I decided to spice up the menu a little bit..which is even more scary,..probably most scary, especially because, I'm also going to be using the opportunity to learn how to cook my first ever Chinese rice. Sounds risky right? Well, I'd be Sophrisky for the day and hope that I dont find myself and family in jail the hosipital post-christmas. So my Menu consists of Starters - Smoothies and some mash, Main Course- Chinese rice, salad and some roast chicken if possible, and Desert being cake and Ice cream. Yummy or nah? What do you think of My Menu?
So here's the plan. I wake up at 7am, do a bit of exercise, play some nice gospel music, have some God and family time, start with the cooking, which should be fun with my mama trying to tell me what quantity of salt and pepper to put in, dine with the FAM, watch a movie afterwards, and then probably take an evening walk. I definitely should have been stuffed from all the food by then but
I hope to share my experience in a good state afterwards. 

What are your Christmas day plans? 

THANKFUL MEMORIES!!!

Sunday, 26 November 2017

Philippians 1:3
There’s power in remembering what God has done in your life – there’s also gratitude too.


In a world where things seem negative and hopeless, staying positive and constantly remembering the things God has done, no matter how little, gives us life and hope. It is for this reason I am first of all, greatful for another year added unto my life, the people who have loved me through it all, the family that God has blessed me with, the loves that never gave up on me even in my darkest days, the good days, the bad days, the trials, the tribulations, the answered and unanswered prayers, the success, the failures, the laughter, the tears, the list could go on....


In the spirit of Thanksgiving, I'd like to share a couple of things/memories that make me smile each time they come to mind 




The most recent would be 3 days ago being the first time we actually celebrated Thanksgiving with stuffed Turkey. I literally remember the look on my mama's face when we began carving it with utmost concentration and seriousness. The memory was Bliss and sweet especially because, we were sharing happily, talking, eating and spending time together.



The next would be my 14th Birthday. My Dad had been posted to a different city for a project but had promised to take me to dinner at the Hilton for my next birthday. That was going to be my first time at the Hilton and it was on my mind the whole year prior to the D-day. Few days before my birthday, my Dad got involved in a minor accident which left him no injuries but damages on the car. Being away from Abuja on an important assignment 2 days before my birthday was heart breaking, not to talk of the car that was damaged and required for a trip back if he had to keep his promise to me. I was sad upon hearing the news and had taken my mind off the treat until he showed up on the D-day with a blue gown for my dinner date with him and the family. This really touched me and left a lasting memory especially because that was love right there. Despite the set back and unexpected events, he still kept his promise by showing up however, which ever way. It was a beautiful evening indeed.

Another Thankful Memory was a childhood one when we had a full house of 5 cousins who came to spend the holiday with us. I remember the night we all sat outside in attempts to count the stars and there was a huge debate on the actual number of stars in the sky. Asides the fun that came with being around my cousin brothers as the only girl, it was a beautiful memory because though we were ignorant, we saw things differently.. We saw things with the eyes of a child. What adults saw as impossible, we saw as possible, we saw fun in everything we did and every situation we found ourselves in.

A quite recent one was at the hospital. It was again my birthday and I decided to visit the hospital. Having gone round and pleaded to get into the ICU, I saw these beautiful Tripplets incubated, and immediately, my heart went out to them. I enquired about their case and asked to meet their mum regarding some immediate important requirements which I opted to take care of. Upon seeing and conversing with the mum who was in a different ward undergoing recovery, I learned that she bore the same name as me. It was such a beautiful coincidence that the mother to the kids whom my heart went out to, was a namesake and a lady who at that particular day and point in time needed a gesture. That very day, she said a prayer for me and in my heart, I strongly believed that the meeting/encounter was a Divine coincidence. I was thankful to have met them.

I am thankful for the day February 7th 2016. On this day my closest friend and I got involved in an accident which when assessed with the human eye, should have been critical but God came through for us in the most miraculous and amazing way.

A cute memory was when I was warmly welcomed with a song by the kids at the orphanage home where I usually visited and taught bible stories and songs during my NYSC days. I vividly remember this 8 year old boy Promise, whom they teased a lot and called Pastor. After they had sang upon my arrival, Promise asked that I kneel down so he could pray for me. I really found that cute and touching and I took his prayers really seriously even though I struggled to pick out his words. What mattered to me was the heart of this child and the innocence and the good will he had for me. I believed God heard his heart and prayers for me.

Another cute memory was when I was ill a few years back. My mum took me to her bed (her normal tradition for when her kids are ill). On this faithful night, I had backed her facing the wall to sleep when I suddenly felt like stretching. As I stretched and turned around towards her, I saw a smile on her face whilst she was still asleep. This was really cute to see and I wished that day that I would always make her smile.

I remember the Family trip to Dubai on one of those vacations/ Holliday's. That was actually our first time travelling out of Nigeria and I remember my Dad who kept laughing at all the blunders of that trip. The one that stuck the most was the struggle to step on the escalators. This was really a hilarious experience but it was beautiful that we all learned how to finally use the escalators as a family.

The last but definitely not the least thankful memory was when I had finished my first degree in the university, returned to Nigeria and was hoping to go back for my masters. I remember praying to God that my wish to return back for a Masters be granted. I remember having faced unexpected life responsibilities and I really and desperately wanted to elope back to England, especially because, I wasn't ready for those responsibilities. Somehow, things didn't quite work out the way I wanted and I was left with no choice than to face them. Today, I am thankful for that wish that never came through, I am thankful for the unanswered prayer because if I hadn't faced what was up against me, I probably wouldn't be who I am today. A lot of people say to me "Soph, you are so strong" but I dont believe this would have been possible if I didn't face my fears to conquer. I have learned a lot over the years and I am still learning. I am still learning to be strong, I am still learning to trust God even when situations seem hopeless, I am learning to lean not on my  own assessment or understanding of things but to seek God's wisdom in all things. I am learning not to worry about the things I can't change, I am learning to embrace growth, change and the distress that come with them, I am learning that my relationship with God is the foundation for all other relationships, I am learning that true happiness begins with and in you, I am learning that there is more to life outside my comfort zone. Its all about growth for me this year and I am thankful for the years ahead and the lessons ahead.

What are your thankful memories?


ON BECOMING R.E.D!!!!

Sunday, 22 October 2017


A number of people have said to me "Red looks so good on you" and I agree because I believe this doesn't just apply to my physical appearance but my mental and spiritual appearance.

A couple of months ago would have been what I would normally describe as "rock bottom" for me but this was a point in my life where I really understood what it meant to have your identity in Christ. These where moments I cherished and nourished, for in them were valuable lessons and pointers towards the RED direction.


Lately, it's been RED on my mind...and no I don't mean red dresses and lipsticks I mean Ruth, Esther and Deborah, my favourite heroines in the Bible.


As much as I love to rock red on the outside, I aspire to be a RED on the inside. I aspire to be like Ruth whom the Bible recorded to be a woman who impacted the genealogy of Christ. A woman who through transformation, became a woman of immense faith, strength and devotion to her family and her lord. She was a woman who feared the lord and walked in faith, she worked hard and took care of her family. She was resourceful, intentional and productive, knew the value of time when taking care of her family and didn't waste it, making sure her family doesn't suffer from her laziness. Indeed she was a virtuous woman and proverbs 31 was her game.

Esther was a woman of courage who found favour before God and before kings. She walked in beauty like the night of cloudless climes and starry skies. Though her beauty made way for her, her personility, character and humility kept her on track. She was described as the heroine who saved her nation from destruction. A woman of purpose with great vindictiveness, strength and charm.

Deborah who was described as Israel's holy lady, was one of the most talented women of the bible - A wife, mother, prophetess, poet, singer, judge and leader. Her life was a wonderful illustration of the power that womanhood has to influence the society for good.  Deborah was a woman who knew her identity in Christ. She was a woman of great faith, confronted wrongs, took actions to help others. She was a Godly woman whose leadership abilities restored Israel's security.

The stories of these three biblical women daily inspires me, and reminds me that God has called us to be the RED's of our time. So, I no longer worry about my struggles because I know God is preparing me for greatness. Through my trials I have learnt that greatness comes with distress and distress builds your capacity for greatness. Here is an illustration of God's preparation of greatness for me.

Dear God,
I have given it my all. I have given my life everything I have within my heart and soul. No matter how much effort I put forth, no matter how hard I work, I still fail. I am sick of this. I am miserable.  Why are you not present in my struggle?
Forever Yours,
Nora

My Child,
First and foremost, I love you. I don’t want you to ever forget who I am. I am present in every aspect of your life, I know you better than you know yourself. I have each hair on your head numbered, every thought cataloged, and your entire life is before me.
There is no doubt, what you are doing is difficult. What I have called you to is going to be a struggle. But child, I will tell you this; Those who are called to do extraordinary things have the toughest paths. Your struggle is not because I have abandoned you, it is because I am with you. You will do great things in your life, but right now, I am training you.
My girl, I have plans for you. You will lead a great multitude of people, you will show them love, and I will work through you to save souls. The truth is, child, you could not handle that position right now. For what I have called you to do, there is an immense amount of training that you must undergo in a very short period of time.
Right now, you are failing. Child, keep your chin up. Don’t quit. I am teaching you perseverance. Some day you will have a home, a husband and children to take care of. Your problems and stressors won’t simply go away, you will have to learn how to balance your work and family, and that is precisely what I am teaching you at this very moment.
In addition to perseverance, I am teaching you work ethic and time management. I am teaching you to work more efficiently and without distraction. When you become a wife and a mother, you will have a family and the duties that are associated with such a position. There will be times when all you have time to do is work and care for your family. There will be times when you wake up at 5 AM so you can accomplish everything that you need to do that day. And child, let me tell you what – You will love every second of it, because you will be walking with Me.
You have lofty goals, and I have lofty goals for you – bet let us not jest… if this path were easy, everybody would do it. In the meantime, find joy in your work, and remember that my plan is to prosper you, not to harm you. Work diligently in what you do, plan your time, and honor Me – you will find that your path becomes far more rewarding.

Sincerely,
Your Loving Father

I hope this encourages you in your time of preparation.

Have a blessed week ahead.

CARVE YOUR NAME ON HEARTS!!!!

Sunday, 3 September 2017

Being that I love to get in touch with my creative and artistic side sometimes, I find that my name is top on the list when it comes to sketching and carving.

A few months ago, I embarked on my factory secondment training program for my company where I had to produce furniture from scratch to finish. During the course of my program, I decided to express the child in me by experimenting with some fun looking machineries on chip board and guess what I carved out?


Feeling so cool and technical, I decided to repeat the process on different objects and in no time, I had my name written almost all over the place. It was no wonder my presence was indeed felt.

Looking back at the memories from my training program, I pondered on this question that got my wheels turning. "How many hearts have my name on them"?

Just like the boards, we all love to create good memories, ones that can always be looked back on with a smile, ones that we can share with friends and loved ones, ones that tell stories of our lives, where we've come from and where we hope to get to. We love to explore life to its fullest, love to be known and recognized for good. We focus on having our names known to the high and mighty, the dignitaries, power officials and influential authorities, that we go all out to please them for something in return. We focus on having our names make it to the headlines, the news, the magazines, billboards and the gram, that we forget the most important place; - the heart.

I have come to realise that the greatest gift one can give in life is a portion of thy self, and the greatest legacy is a good name. A good name is found in the hearts of the weak, the troubled, the needy, the helpless, the homeless, the orphans, the peasants, the widows, the disabled... A good name is the little act of kindness, the encouragement, the smile, the prayers, the friendship, the love we give even to those who don't love us in return. A good name is the only thing you take with you and leave with others when you are gone. It is priceless and should be our greatest priority in life.

Looking at what I have taken in from others and also what I have learned from my own experiences, has been a powerful exploration of who I am and what I hope to leave behind.

And if there's one thing I've also learnt, it's that a good name exudes love and only the strong in heart can show love just the same way God showed love, that even when we were yet sinners, he died for us. Its easier to do good to those who do good to us, but then what makes us different?

I want to remind and encourage people to be generous with love and kindness no matter how little, keep doing good and being good to everyone. You never know what heart may have your name imprinted for life.

Carve your name on hearts not boards or stones.

BEAUTIFUL MELODY!!!!

Sunday, 9 July 2017

Life is like a piano. The white keys represent happiness, the black keys show sadness. But as you go through life’s journey, remember that the black keys make music too . Ehssan.

As I sat there thinking about life and the hastles that come with it, I remembered my good old piano days when I'd take my keyboard to the balcony (to depress my neighbours), label each key with the lyrics of the song I had in mind and play myself away, not minding if I was making good music or not. To me then, the piano had no wrong note because every key I hit made a good sound even if it didn't make good sense. I realised that the white keys made good music but without the black keys, there wouldn't be a beautiful melody.




There are no wrong keys in life. Each key of life, both black and white, has its purpose. Happiness and sadness will always come, but both are important to your growth and well-being as you go through life's journey. Happiness provides resolution and satisfaction whilst sadness provides perseverance and strength. We may never really be able to appreciate the good times if we have no bad times. 

So as much as we all love the high notes and white keys, let's not disregard the low notes and black keys as these are what makes a beautiful melody. 

Life is beautiful, no matter what you go through, you've got to keep living, and when you hit the low notes or feel like giving up, always remember that purpose is always born out of pain.



RIPPED!!!!!!

Saturday, 27 May 2017


Poor girl!! We need to buy you some new trousers mama said...
No mama, that's what's in vogue now. They are supposed to be that way I said.

You probably can't afford new ones she further said.
Rips are cool mum, its hard to explain. I said.

This was clearly an example of an extreme generation gap, hence the conversation was lost.

Today, ripped jeans are fashionable. In fact, the more ripps, the merrier.

Now they are even labelled destroyed on the tags.
That means they were manufactured to be torn up.


And yes that's identified as cool for most of us. But in my mama's eyes, the reverse is the case.
Instead, its a public declaration of being homeless, an automatic target for pitty and an outward cry of total desperation.

For mama, it didn't matter what I said, she'd never understand.


Life, just like the ripped jeans can be very torn up.

It can seem destroyed sometimes, it can appear to be falling apart, yet it is still put together.


Yes sometimes it can be hard to explain how it can possibly be restored to someone who doesn't understand how the pain could ever make sense.

God created us knowing that we'd be broken and torn.

Originally, we were not manufactured to be that way in the beginning. But when sin entered into the world, so did pain, brokenness, ripps and tears.

Yet God still managed to turn it all into something beautiful through Jesus.


Jesus came to restore the brokenness of the world. Although the world is still torn and full of sin, plus terrible things still happen everyday, Jesus made a way to see it all differently - from a new perspective.

He made it so that God will see his perfection not our destruction.

He made it so that we could be restored and beautiful once again.


Just like a pair of wrecked jeans are still put together to form a nice outfit, so our lives are just walking wrecks still put together, through Jesus, to form beauty.

Jesus read our tags, he knew we were destroyed, but he saw that we were worth buying even at the cost of his own life.

He proved that just because something is broken, doesn't mean it can't be made beautiful.


Even though our lives are ripped up, falling apart, complete messes, Jesus can restore us still, and call us worthy of loving. Worthy of using for a greater purpose.


Without Jesus, we are just a pair of ripped up jeans, with a baggy T-shirt, scruffy socks and a cowboy hat.

With Jesus, we are a pair of ripped jeans, a nice trendy top, perfectly rugged sneakers and sweet shades.



Its a match made in heaven and in the end, its all put together just right.

After all is said and done, a life with Jesus, including the brokenness, the ripps, patches and all will end up beautiful.

MY KIMONO, FASHION & FACTS OF LIFE!!!

Wednesday, 3 May 2017

Hey guys,

Happy new Month!.

Hope you had a nice long weekend cuz I did myself. What did you get up to? I pretty much did something I hadn't done in a while...I went OUT!! Yup! You read that right! It sure felt great hanging out with friends at the jam rock event and a night of a thousand laughs. I do hope more of these could happen so I can finally say I have a life!

Speaking of life, isn't it amazing? Practically almost everything teaches us something about life. Let's talk fashion for example.


I'm not one whose usually all "dress up and slay" but I do like to look simple and nice, which to me, is my definition of fashion.

Over the weekend however, feeling very fashionable with myself, I decided to rock my black kimono which I've had for a while, a tank top and a nice pair of jeans. I remember asking my self in front of the mirror "Gurl!!..where the heck is your fashion sense?" Isn't it better to rock this with a dress, a skirt or some nice looking shorts?" After several back and forth's, I realized it didn't matter what I wore..cuz together, it all looked good on me whichever way.















Something about fashion and life?

Several pieces working together are more significant than each piece.

A great outfit is worth more than a sum of its individual parts, and the way pieces play off of one another is key to a great style. This interrelationship is also true in accomplishing most things in life. We can have much greater impact working with others than alone, or as I've grown fond of saying the power of "we" achieves infinitely more than the power of "me".

A few “exceptional” pieces give you more than a closet full of “okay” pieces

A problem I always had back in the days was getting "exceptional" pieces which led to having loads of clothes but having no clothes at all. After some growth and much decluttering recently, I do not have a closet bursting with clothes. I have a few nice things, all pieces I really love and can wear a long time. This offers me simplicity, focus and easy organisation, and when I apply this same methodology to my life, I am freed up to live a life of much greater purpose, rather than a jumble of activities of marginal value. I believe it is best to choose a few high-value pursuits and let go of the rest. Or what do you think?


What facts of life can you learn from fashion?



EASTER MUSINGS!!!!

Sunday, 16 April 2017

Hey guys,

What a while it has been!

I never thought I'd have to be away from this space as long as I've been, but I guess sometimes, life just happens. I'm not gonna bore you with my busy work life and all that's been going on, I'm just gonna stick with the fact that it sure feels good to be back on here!

Earlier today, being the resurrection day, I thought of what to write about the cross..,and I realized that sometimes, we don't have to go too deep to bring out certain truths. Sometimes, its okay to run your fingers on the surface and glaze through what lies on there, because in truth, even a surface should be so sharp you get bleeding fingers.


A couple of days ago, In attempts to get rid of some of my achieves, I stumbled on a dress I wore to a friend's birthday dinner a few years back and surprisingly, I vividly remember the funny event that took place that day.

We had all gathered for the meal, and were asked to place our order for drinks accordingly. Shortly before I placed mine, this guy opposite me, who had (as at then), recently returned from the UK, had grabbed on all the munches initially placed on the table for 10, taken off his cap, his tie and finally, his Suit. Dude seemed to have been ready for the dinner since the day before. To confirm my suspecion, he requested for a glass of mojito and added "One large please". This was minutes after his first drink order of Chapman was placed. To think that was deep, the food menu came and he began with the appetizers, of which his consisted of some honey glazed chicken wings, prawns and Mayo spring rolls and some waffles. As if that wasn't enough, he requested for a chicken curry sauce alongside a bowl of steamed rice for his main course, some spare ribs and crispy chips to go with it. We all ate and chatted with eachother, as he drew more attention to himself from the way he kept ordering for more drinks and trying to have a taste of both his neighbours' food. When the feast was finally over, dude turned red from the surprise on his face when we were asked to sort out our bills individually.

All long he thought the celebrant was to pay the bills like its usually done in the UK, but unfortunately for him, that wasn't the case and so he had to face the consequences.

Greed doesn't pay!! Jesus thought about you when he died on the cross. Always think about others not just yourselves.

Happy Easter.

WHEN ARE YOU GETTING MARRIED?!!!!!

Sunday, 22 January 2017

Hey guys,

I know this is coming in really late but hey! it's still a new year, so I can still say Happy new year my lovely blog readers! I hope the year has been great thus far?

The calendar page has now turned from 2016 to 2017 and some will say "Not a moment too soon" as a result of the most dreaded question which always increases with each passing year - "When are you getting married? "


I recently called a friend I hadn't spoken to since late last year and the first thing he said to me was "I thought you've married!". After I replied saying "Is that how they now marry"?, To make matters worse, he now asked " Oya when is the wedding"? This really got me thinking about this seemingly comical but ultimately very serious issue. MARRIAGE!!


I don't know if it's just me but the issue of marriage seems very deep (not like I'm against marriage or anything), but it just gets me wondering each time. It gets so deep, especially in this part of the world and for women, that if at 24 or 25 she still hasn't gotten married, it will turn to prayer point. Any other age from then on will be unto deliverance or from one prayer mountain to another. Next thing, she'll end up being pressured into marrying early and to the wrong person or to someone she probably doesn't love.

Getting married is easy, staying married is difficult. In fact, the wedding for some is the only time during the course of marriage, they will love each other genuinely and be truely happy because after the wedding, marriage begins and that's when yawa go start. My mum once said for a marriage to work, it's not about compatibilities but incompatibilities. That is to say, its not about how compartable you guys are but how you handle the incompatibilities.

As much as I'd love to get married and to the man God has ordained for me, I have come to realise that there are very necessary questions to ask myself, there are many things and keys of wisdom to aquire before embarking on that journey called marriage.

It is not a game nor a race, an achievement nor an outdated institution. Marriage is a mentality that we need to build and cultivate with and by the word of God.

So rather than ask dreading questions like "when are you getting married"?  " When do I get my asoebi"?, "When is he proposing"?, why don't you come along to the singles and married seminar where you can get answers to the many questions and thoughts that come up in your minds with regards to relationships, marriage, dating, sex and many more.


Time: 8am-12pm
Venue: 6B lasale close Maitama Abuja.

Hope to see you there and have a lovely week. :)
