<div class="MsoNormal">
The power of words. Undermined. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We tend to forget the fact that when we speak what we say
could either have a positive or negative effect on the other party. It all
comes down to what we say. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I watched a film today and the main thing that stuck out to
me was the fact that one guy turned around and hated the friends he had grown
to love simply because of a few words said by his father. Underestimating the
power behind the words that we <b>CHOOSE</b> to use when speaking to others has to be
the one of the biggest mistakes that we can make.We are always faced with a choice and the things we say do not fall short of our ability to choose what we should or could say.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Words have the power to break someone and push them towards
things they never even thought they were capable of. The movie, of course, has
its exaggerated moments but the facts remain that the words “you’re an embarrassment...they
are not your friends” possessed the power to create a murderer. It may just take one word to push someone over the edge.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Be careful of what we say. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Be mindful of what we say.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Be loving with what we say.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Freeing my mind to just run for miles and miles has so many
benefits, it allows my mind to explore things that have probably remained shut
for the longest period of time, for example a talent which has been suppressed
by the biggest critic, myself, liberating my mind allows me to unlock mysteries
within myself, allowing myself to find out who I am by simply thinking, I can
determine who I have been, who I am going to be and who I am at the minute, I
have the ability to assess myself and wisely pick out the things that need to
change, I notice the small things that I would normally put off, for example my
God given talent which has been dormant for days, months, years, its finally unlocked, I find out that
my mind is a chest of creativity, treasure that can never be stolen, priceless,
I acknowledge that my creativity defies the contraventions of grammar,
structure and formation, as I type, each comma represents a breath I take, my
mind freely spills through my hands onto the keyboard, imprinting onto a
visionary white sheet, my mind is free, free to express itself in anyway,
either through poetry or articles, explaining my innermost feelings and
liberating my views, my mind is truly liberated, free to think up masterpieces,
free to think up metaphorical punch lines, I have the ability to think my
entire future into reality, one day I will be a wife, mother and aunt, one day
I say and mean three words that make me cringe, ‘I love you’, one day i'll become
who my mind allows me to be, one day...</div>Flo~Oyin~Olahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09117262501563953289noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253840449071442123.post-87433524799938659782012-02-07T18:49:00.000-08:002012-02-07T18:49:04.624-08:00I Am Beautiful II<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Over the past two weeks I have had ample time to sit down
and assess the past five months of my life. The past five months that I believed
was idle. The past five months which grew more and more annoying with each day
that passed. The past five months that I failed to acknowledge that God was
trying to show me something. Something that would’ve been made clear in the
space of a few days took me five months and two weeks. However, to God be the
glory, I can share what I have learnt.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the first week of my two week period, I went through a
phrase of accepting that I was beautiful and appreciating God’s evident work in
me. This was the physical stage, the time where I was forced to understand what
it means to adore the woman staring back at me in the mirror. The first week
inspired my ‘I Am Beautiful’ piece. This second week which is coming to an end
has made me focus on the inner beauty.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
One thing I had to painfully realise was that in looking
beautiful, if I did not have the ‘beautiful’ character to match it was all
pointless. For example, wearing the best attire but having a filthy attitude. I
had to sit and think what image I preferred to have. It was between being
hollow, having all the physical attributes but empty inside or being filled, a
lovely character radiating on the physical me. Please don’t get me wrong, there
is nothing wrong with looking nice, there is nothing wrong with making an
effort but the problem comes in when your main focus becomes looking nice
rather than being a better person.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I had to learn that what was most important was your heart.
The following scriptures spoke volumes to me:</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“<i>What matters is not
your outer appearance – the styling of your hair, the jewellery you wear, the
cut of your clothes – but your inner disposition.</i>” (1 Peter 3:3 MSG)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For the longest period of my life I put so much emphasis on
how I looked on the outside and failed to even care about my <i>inner disposition</i>. I didn’t care about
whether what I may have said may have had an adverse effect on someone but I
cared about the next set of shoes or the type of mascara I would wear. I
worried more about the outside forgetting that beauty comes from within. It was
and is a process which takes time but the first step was to have the will to go
through it.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
“<i>Your beauty should
come from within you – the beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit that will never
be destroyed and is special to God.</i>” (1 Peter 3:4 NCV)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Once we allow God to perfect the beauty within us nothing
can ever come our way and stop us from saying I AM BEAUTIFUL!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Have you ever looked in the mirror and hated the woman or
man that stares back at you? Have you ever looked around and felt that other
people are better looking than you? Have you ever felt that your weakness lies
in your inability to acknowledge the beauty within? Guilty. Guilty.
Guilty. The feeling of hating what looks
back at you in the mirror is incredibly familiar for me and I thought the best
way to help others is to share my experience. This was initially meant to be a
poem but I just couldn’t seem to fit the words into stanzas and metaphors which
gracefully paint the vision behind it. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I went through a period where crying seemed the only
possible solution to the disgust I felt toward myself. Speaking to people never
seemed enough because I already knew what the people were bound to say. They
were going to reassure me that I was not as terrible as I thought I was. They
would try to convince me that I was in fact so much more beautiful than I knew.
Whatever. It was weird because there was nothing anybody could say or do; I was
set in my ways. Tears were my only consolation.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
During this period I felt so alone and miserable, I would
have moody outbursts and just shut myself away from the world. I had hit my
rock bottom and if I’m sincerely honest I’m only moving out of this period
now. Isaiah 45:9 (NLT) reads “What
sorrow awaits those who argue with their Creator.” When I read this I realised
that the only possible answer to my problem was myself. I had to come the
realisation that I had brought misery upon myself by challenging the work of my
Creator. As some would know the Bible says that we are fearfully and
wonderfully made, it also states that we are made in the image of God, but for
me knowing these scriptures of by heart was not enough. Isaiah 45:9 was enough.
It was the missing link. For the longest time I had found myself wondering why
God made me the way He did. Why did I have to be so tall? Why didn’t I have a
smile like hers? Why did I lack those mesmerizing eyes that other girls had?
Isaiah taught me that sorrow lies in wait for someone with questions as such.
Not only did I undermine the power of God but I demeaned Him as the most
creative Creator ever.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Dreaming and wishing that you look like someone else is an
insult to God. I had to try and see things from His perspective. If I had spent
time creating a poem and then the poem was to turn around and say that its
stands for nothing, its rubbish, it would hurt. Immediately I had to correct
myself and realise that God had spent time on me to make me as I am. He created
me with all my flaws but He considers me beautiful regardless of what the world
may think therefore its only right to see myself in the same light. Each person
comes with their own deficiencies and incapacities but all in all each of us
stand as individual masterpieces. We all illustrate the mind of God and we all
show the creativity of God.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So ladies and gentlemen, what am I getting at? In short you
are beautiful! The joy that comes from accepting and believing this is far
better than the sorrow that follows from believing that you are less than you
are. Begin to believe it. Begin to profess it. I AM BEAUTIFUL!!!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Hugs and kisses...</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
When a dear friend threw this question at me, I stared
blankly into her eyes expecting a second question that could possibly make
sense of this one. I was unsure of what angle to take the question. For a brief
moment I was totally lost, I could not seem to conjure up the words to do
myself the justice of explaining <i>what
type of woman I was</i>. I got home and pondered on that moment because it left
a scar in my memory, I couldn’t stop thinking about it. Randomly, I decided to
think up the positives about myself and weighed them out with the negatives. I
racked my brain until I gave myself a headache.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
What am I getting at? If you were to be posed with such a
question how would you answer it? At first, it seems as if the question is not
one that requires a huge amount of thinking, quite the contrary. This question
demands a lot of thinking! The answer must and will sum up the kind of woman
you are to a person who is either simply interested or a potential suitor.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
How do you answer or find the answer? Question. For me to
finally get an answer to this question, I spent an evening and a morning
thinking about it (for others it will not take that long – I just wanted to be
100% sure). Defining ‘me’ was not a chance to blow some words into the air but
an opportunity to search deep within myself to find a simple sentence to fully
envelop <i>what type of woman I was</i>. I
wanted the answer to actually relate to who I was, I wanted to answer
confidently and I wanted my answer to be so true that the evidence was in my
characteristics. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I had to be honest with myself and search deep within
myself. This included looking at the things I hated about myself, some of which
had gone unnoticed for such a long time until this question was pushed to the
forefront of my mind. The worst thing to
do is lie to yourself, as my dear mother always says, ‘you are deceiving no one
else but yourself’. Your answer should make you smile, you answer should bring
you joy when your down and your answer should be something that pushes you to
press on in tough situations.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Such a question is an opportunity as opposed to being a trick
question. It’s a chance to compliment yourself with the positives of your
character and face the challenges of the negative aspects of who you are. Rushing
is not a prerequisite to the question of who you are as a woman because the
answer you effortlessly utter out of your mouth should hit the ears of your
receiver and truly paint a picture of who you are. I finally came up with what
I considered a justifying answer; <i>I am a
woman of principle</i>. Clearly, now, my question to you is <i>what type of woman are you?</i> </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Over the years, the word ‘humility’ has been added to my
ever so limited vocabulary. To my current understanding it is a quality of
being humble, which in turn means neither proud nor arrogant. The issue I seem
to come across a lot is the problem of defining one’s self as ‘humble’. The common
phrase that follows after describing yourself in that light is: ‘how can a
humble person say they are humble?’. Sorry? Since when was it abominable for
someone to believe that they are well and truly humble?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Please correct me if I’m wrong but my logic only stretches
to the understanding that the tone in which something is said determines what
is meant. Don’t get me wrong, some may say that they are humble but their
actions and their choice of words prove otherwise. My issue is however, if someone
possesses the traits of humility, when asked they describe themselves as
humble, they automatically are no longer humble?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
To me words are toys, they can be played with to portray the
mind of the speaker or writer. A lay man on the street would be able to
acknowledge someone boasting and being arrogant as opposed to a person who truly
believes they are humble. The same way lego can be put together to build a
build a miniature house, pulled apart and put together again to form a car so
words can be transformed to mean different things. Personally, I believe that
the word ‘humility’ has been over-sensitised. We have made the word more than
it is. Simply, as the dictionary states, it means that someone is neither proud
nor arrogant. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I seem to believe that anyone who honestly believes they are
humble should be free to use the term without being crucified for their beliefs
of who they are. Its just the same for someone who believes that they are
generally a happy person, it cannot be said that only an outsider can tell them
such. If they believe that about themselves then so be it.</div>Flo~Oyin~Olahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09117262501563953289noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253840449071442123.post-29979334220445365792012-02-06T18:30:00.000-08:002012-02-06T18:30:07.517-08:00A New Leaf...Its been such a long time since I've blogged but not since I have written something.

Is there anywhere your right hand goes where your left does not follow? Is there a time where your right hand will try to lift something beyond its capacity where the left hand will not come in handy? At times its like your left hand is not there but it is, especially when you need it most. Just like God. He's the left hand and we stand as our right hand, handling things, carrying things but we tend to forget that the left hand is also there to help. There are times when we feel by ourselves even though we are surrounded by many. However, God is there like your left hand is. He's there to help, there to carry those things that are too heavy to carry alone and simply just to be your companion. He may not be here physically but He is always always always there when you need Him. Sometimes we just need to use our left hand (the helping hand) a little more rather than leaving it there dormant whilst our right hand is trying to do everything for itself. We need to acknowledge God just a little bit more and then we will find that He never left us but in effect we left Him out...</span>Flo~Oyin~Olahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09117262501563953289noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253840449071442123.post-57976691776567895742010-11-30T09:24:00.001-08:002010-11-30T09:24:54.976-08:00Mistakes...<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: small;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">In this life that we live, we are bound to make mistakes and sometimes some mistakes are bigger to us than others. However, to God, sin is sin and there is no level of ranking (Romans 3:21-26). The one thing to remember is that you can always go back to God...the biggest mistake you can make is becoming subject to the mistake you made. Allowing yourself to become a victim to guilt is the worst thing because God is there with open arms waiting for you to just get back up, learn from it and keep it moving. Donnie McClurkin’s song, ‘We Fall Down’ comprises this saying that ‘a saint is just a sinner who fell down but got up’. Whatever you have done does not make you less of a Christian; neither does it put you below the rest, it simply means that you fell and you need to get up with a repenting heart. Nothing more, nothing less. Satan wants you to believe that the world must stop and you have no place, neither any right to even call on the name of Jesus BUT in Proverbs 24:16 it says ‘for a righteous man may fall seven times and rise again’. Isaiah 44:22 clearly states ‘I have blotted out, like a thick cloud, your transgressions, and like a cloud, your sins. Return to Me, for I have redeemed you’. Even Jesus specifically says in Matthew 12:31 ‘every sin and blasphemy will be forgiven’, so who, based on the Scriptures, can ever tell you that you cannot come back to God? Answer, no one. Numbers 23:19 says that ‘God is not a man, the He should lie, nor a son of man that He should repent. Has he said, and will He not do? Or has He spoken, and will He not make it good?’ and Isaiah 55:11 says ‘So shall my word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing that I have sent it’. This basically showing us that God is not a liar and when He says something, so shall it be. So when you make a mistake just remember that God IS waiting there for you to redeem you and put you back in line with Him as long as you repent. Never, ever, let ANYBODY neither yourself tell you otherwise...</span></span>Flo~Oyin~Olahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09117262501563953289noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253840449071442123.post-67462591284820940012010-11-30T09:22:00.001-08:002010-11-30T09:22:55.094-08:00Forgiveness...<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">Lord, give me the heart of forgiveness</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />

Each road has these markings but do not force drivers to follow them, drivers can disobey these markings at their own risk.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />

When they drive, they must take others into consideration. Drivers set an example for those driving behind them. When the driver stops every other car behind them stops and so on and so forth.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />

Things which come together and form skills we need in this game we call life. The more we learn the more we are exposed to God's greatness. That which surpasses all understanding. Confusing? Yes! How can we learn more about God but have no understanding? Well, I guess that's the whole point of life, its all one big lesson that takes us to a greater place where all unanswered questions are finally answered.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />

</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">The main catch here is that big word, that word that scares everyone, faith. Such a complicated term yet so simple.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />

</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">Faith = Belief in something we cannot physically see.</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />

</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">As Christians we hear all sorts of things in relation to faith, some say faith can move mountains, while others say that faith is something that requires too much from mankind. Interestingly, you can understand why some may say the latter. As humans of today, in the society that we live in evidence is paramount, without it your claim is useless. So living in today's age how can we build our faith? Typical answers are read your Bible, pray more, be nice to others and so forth. Easier said than done, but can be done. What else can we do? Another idea is to take charge of your friends. Gather them up together and start a Bible study group and then you’d feel obliged to read the Bible and grow in faith. Easier done than said! I guess I’ve just written up my checklist….</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span>Flo~Oyin~Olahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09117262501563953289noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-253840449071442123.post-74379860714202519952010-11-30T09:15:00.001-08:002010-11-30T09:15:19.355-08:00What do you love?...<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;">Fella’s, imagine that banging PlayStation game</span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"> </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 11px; line-height: 16px;"><br />
