So...............i came to tell y'all about my prep for exams,end of exams and I bless God that I am here again today unashamed of the ONE that I KNOW and BELIEVE in!Results came out today and and though we didnt get the grades yet(they're gonna be posted to us later),we got to know if one PASSED,TO RESIT,REFER,DEFER OR FAILED!
I tell you honestly,i have never panicked so much before,me and my friend were just fighting over who to open the page(on the net) and who to check first........it was so scarrry.

.....but I am so glad,and it has kept me broken,humbled,yet grateful and full of thanks.........to know that God has done it yet again.....I PASSED!!Not even a single compensated module!It must have been God cos those exa,s were HAAAARRRRRRRRRRRD...............I just thot id share the good news with my family here on NR. If you've ever doubted God in your life, I have been given another opportunity on your behalf,to say to you.........if ALL ELSE FAIL...TRY GOD!
He doesnt disappoint his own......you only need to do your best,trust him with the rest and relax!He's got things under control........
My sincere thanks again goes to all who were there for me,encouraging,calling,texting,praying and wishing me well........only God can reward you..........I APRECIATE YOU

.

One love...

Hmm.......I'd be right to say that I am a living TESTIMONY! Honestly!! So...mum called from London this morning to tell me that my result had been posted to the house and she was going to tell me over the phone...boy,was i about to faint

!!

Once again, God's name is to be praised.Even though i knew I had passed,I didnt know how well I did. I must say that I did way more than my expectations and I will take no glory for it! It must have been God!....yes,him alone!!

Everyday, I see at least a reason to appreciate him,and love him for who he is!!THE UNFAILING ONE!

Im so overwhelmed with joy this moment,i can hardly say anything....but pls y'all,if you guys do nothing else today,abeg pls say "THANK YOU" to him for me cos I cant say it enough!

THIS IS FOR YOU LORD!

You dont have to worry....and dont you be afraid.
Joy comes in the morning,trouble days dont last always
For theres a friend na,ed Jesus,who will wipe ur tears away
And if your heart is broken.
Just lift your hands and say......
Oh,I know that I can make it
I know that I can stand,
No matter what
May come my way,
My life is in your hands

This is the word of a song that came to my spirit as I sat here thinking of what I can share on here today seeing its been a while since I visited this page.
Peradventure, someone's going through a seemingly tough time at the mom, i just want to let you know that you're not alone. This too shall pass and you will be better for it. Dont give up hope and keep trusting......better days are yet ahead!!!!

"You would not be so critical of yourself, or so conscious of the opinions of others if you knew how God really felt about you!He made up his mind about you before you failed, so repent and dismiss the guilt, for guilt is the offspring of unbelief:it insults God's mercy. Stop running around looking for love. Open your heart: God is speaking to you today in the very circumstances you are trying to escape. He is the one you need when life has wounded you and you have fallen from your nesting place like a bird. Only his hand can catch your falling soul, cast it to the wind and give you strength to try again and to succeed!

The problem is, we have never been loved by anyone the way God loves us, so we have nothing to compare it to! Some of us have never been secure in the love of our natural parents and it affects how we see our heavenly father. Go to his word, it is a living love letter. It is a "statement of intent" from one who wants only the best for you.

'But i fall far short', you say. The good news is: nothing you have done or havent done has changed his mind. His love for you is constant and unconditional.

No parent wants their child to be insecure or question their love. That is why God disciplines us,develops us, and delights in us! The fact that he loves yo ueven when you are wrong, is what gives you the power to right the wrongs you have done". So pple, experience God's love afresh today and youd be glad you did!

Hope this encourages someone today!

Thanks sis, oh thank God for you and your wonderful words of encouragement. May the good Lord bless you and us all. Your words are so encouraging and it's been changing my life in a very positive way. Keep it coming momma.

God's WORD is TRUE and POWERFUL!We only need to speak it with and by FAITH,without doubting.....it works in and for every situation. There's no better thing to say to anyone at anytime,but particularly today than this one thing:

God is interested in YOU,yes,YOU!!Every aspect of YOUR life matters to him and he wants to get involved,really. It is so easy sometimes to involve God in one or two areas of our lives and keep him out of the others or try to keep the others secret to him...WE LIE!!Truly,cos the word says that "ALL THINGS ARE OPEN TO THE EYES OF HIM TO WHOM WE WILL GIVE ACCOUNT" He sees even the deepest secrets of our hearts and thoughts but he waits for us to share them with him. Someone was sharing with me the other day and he said that he yearns to know God the way a lady longs to know her new found lover. Oh to be able to know his thoughts,his plans,his heart,his likes,his dislikes and to be as close to him as the very air we breathe......there surely is nothing like it!

That song says..."as the deer pants after the waters so my soul longs after you...you alone are my heart's desire and i long...to worship you!" Those were the words of a great man of God in ages past, and oh that the same will be our cry even here and now.....so help us lord!

@Oyinkan...bless ya babes...thank you for YOU...u know i love ya....talk to you in a bit!

@Simisola...loving ya right back!

Hmmm......i havent been here in like 2 weeks..........lord have mercy!!

So.....God is faithful,people,only the deep thinkers will realise!
I love to encourage people and today,it is my heart's desire that every NR member will find their life's purpose,pursue and take hold of it. If you want what you've never had,do what youve never done. Sometimes,we have to take risks and go extra miles to attain certain things, let go of whatever is holding you back and go ahead and take that risk,to live by faith,is to take risks, and to do the craziest things sometimes,but we gotta develop our confidence both in God and in ourselves so we can forge ahead!
Greatness will come,but we have to work for it,as much as we trust for it. FAITH without WORKS is dead. You can do it,you can win it,you can take it,you can own it, you can have it, you can give it, and you can eat it. (I hope this is word for someone today)-Whatever you can conceive and perceive,you can receive. DREAM BIG..........there will be no stopping you!

Be back later!God bless and keep ya!

.
Be encouraged!

The next time you feel like God can't use you, just
remember...
Noah was a drunk
Abraham was too old
Isaac was a daydreamer
Jacob was a liar
Leah was ugly
Joseph was abused
Moses had a stuttering problem
Gideon was afraid
Samson had long hair and was a womanizer
Rahab was a prostitute
Jeremiah and Timothy were too young
David had an affair and was a murderer
Elijah was suicidal
Isaiah preached naked
Jonah ran from God
Naomi was a widow
Job went bankrupt
Peter denied Christ
The Disciples fell asleep while praying
Martha worried about everything
Mary Magdalene was, well you know
The Samaritan woman was divorced, more than once
Zaccheus was too small
Paul was too religious ( and as Saul, was a
murderer?)
Timothy had an ulcer...........
AND
Lazarus was dead!
...............no more excuses now.
God can use you to your full potential.
Besides, you aren't the message, you are the messenger.
