Cancer: Journey to Victory - Post surgery

This week has been a tough week. I have been in so much pain and I have been feeling sorry for myself thinking of how things were before and how things are now. I just want things to go back to normal to go back to how things were before. I feel so helpless, I feel so useless I don’t know if I have been thinking my identity to the things I do my job this in-activeness is making me feel so sorry for myself.

But I’ll lord is so good he knew exactly what I needed to hear and exactly what you wanted to say to me so this morning I read a verse in Psalms 27 Verse 14 “Here’s what I’ve learned through it all: Don’t give up; don’t be impatient; be entwined as one with the Lord. Be brave and courageous, and never lose hope. Yes, keep on waiting—for he will never disappoint you!” Psalms 27:14 TPT

Temi my daughter, my beloved, do not give up, do not be impatient. Be entwined as one with me your Lord. Every detail of your life is continually woven together to fit into my perfect plan for your life. Be brave and courageous and never lose hope. Yes keep waiting on me for I will never disappoint you for there will be a fulfillment of those things which I have spoken to you. I have fought the battle and already won and all you need to do is lean on me, be at one with my words and promises and keep trusting and believing even when things seem not be going according to my plans or how you perceive things to be. Trust that I am perfecting your healing, trust that all things are working according to my to my plan. Don’t lose hope for you shall see the fulfillment of my words - By my stripes you healed.

This verse brought comfort and peace to me. I know I have been feeling sorry for myself wanting things to go back to normal as soon as possible. Now, no more feeling sorry for myself or being impatient. I will be patient, I will be brave, I will be courageous and I will be strong. I will keep waiting for the Lord and I will never lose hope because I know my Lord will never disappoint me. I will submit to God’s will and plan for me because I know I will never be disappointed. I will keep on trusting that he’s perfecting my healing. I will continue to praise and thank him for how far He has brought me and for what He is still yet to do.

When God Feels Silent: Trusting Him When We Feel Forgotten

Image
Have You Ever Felt God Is Far Away? Have you ever prayed and felt like God didn’t answer—or even like He wasn’t there at all? We all go through seasons where God feels silent. His voice seems quiet, our prayers seem unanswered, and it’s easy to feel forgotten. Recognise your feelings Sometimes life feels overwhelming, and we wonder if God has left us to face it alone. David knew this feeling well. In Psalm 13:1–2, he cries: “How long, Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and day after day have sorrow in my heart?” David doesn’t hide his frustration or doubt. He brings his raw, honest emotions to God. And here’s the beautiful truth: God welcomes our honesty. He’s not offended by our questions or doubts—He desires a real, genuine relationship with us. Shift from Despair to Trust David doesn’t stay in despair. Later in Psalm 13:5–6, he chooses trust over doubt: “But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation. I will sing th...

What’s in Your Cup? Learning to Overflow With Thankfulness

Image
Life has a funny way of revealing what’s really inside us. Imagine this: you’re walking back from the office kitchen with a cup of coffee. Someone bumps into you and—splat!—coffee everywhere. You spilled coffee because coffee was in your cup. If it had been tea, tea would have spilled instead. That moment teaches us something powerful: when life bumps us—through challenges, stress, or unexpected situations—whatever is in our hearts tends to spill out. That’s why Paul encourages us in Colossians 2:6-7 to live rooted in Christ: “So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.” Being “rooted and built up in Him” means our hearts are filled with Christ’s love and strength. When life bumps us, what spills out isn’t frustration or fear—it’s thankfulness. How do we stay full of thankfulness? So the question becomes: how do we stay full of tha...

God’s Word That Opens Paths Through the Impossible

Image
God’s Word is a gift that renews the mind. At the dead ends of life, in the darkness we never saw coming, His Word steps in like a bright light cutting through every shadow. From the very beginning, God’s voice has always made a way where there seemed to be no way. At the edge of the Red Sea, when the Israelites were trapped between deep waters and a relentless enemy, God spoke — and the sea opened. His voice carved a path through the impossible. “Your path led through the sea, your way through the mighty waters, though your footprints were not seen.” — Psalm 77:19 That is who God is. His Word doesn’t always explain every detail, but it always guides. It doesn’t always prevent the struggle, but it never leaves us to face it alone. Maybe today you’re standing at what looks like a dead end — hoping for a miracle, longing for direction. Don’t lose heart. The Word is still alive, and it still makes a way. Don’t lean on your own understanding. Open the Bible. Inside are promises that do not...
