EARLY DROUGHT AND WRATH: Femi Oladele

Sequel, to last Thursday's article, on lateral thinking.

Mighty works he hath wrought; many words he hath spoken.

Why then do I feel there is drought?

HE does mighty things; that is unquestionable.

Why do we take delivery by deliberate action?

Does a father have a need for wrath and/or chastisement?

Even in the eye of the storm, comes the ever challenging drill;

Why are you here?

HE does unspeakable things; and shows it to HIS elect.

Why does HE expect a resounding on rooftops?

After all, we all can get angry and deny ourselves of earthly victuals,

Yet we see HIM place demands through it all.

At the end, when we see HIM, that is if we see HIM.

I have questions that seem like may take forever to answer.

Yet HE chuckles; the answers are in my WORD.

But I retort; I want to hear you say it; I would prefer to wait till then.

HE adamantly insists; isn’t that a repetition? Just let it go…

Now, I see clearly, there was never a drought; yet my wrath made it seem impossible.

My mindset created a veil.

Lift up your heads, O ye Gates…

And I should continue…

And yes, it continues next week Thursday.
Gracias

LABOURING: IN THE PROCESS OF DREAM BIRTHING (2)

Labour/ birthing of dreams has three main phases, to view the 1st Stage and what it is correlated with, please check LABOURING: IN THE PROCESS OF DREAM BIRTHING . Thank you.

WANNABE INTERN

Week 2 Message to the Pre-Intern: don’t lose hope! Week 2, for me, was 2 months post-induction. This was when the wait began to sink in. You mean I’ve been home for two whole months? By now, I was literally chewing on my fingernails. Don’t get me wrong, I wasn’t scared of getting a space, but I certainly wasn’t confident about any place anymore. That is when I began to write this book. Today is the 12th of September and I sit at the dining table in my parents’ house, typing at 11:27pm (because well, I have an editing job to finish up, but mostly because I don’t have to go anywhere tomorrow morning). If I don’t want to, I don’t even have to take a bath tomorrow morning because well, I can stay indoors all day! (I most likely will stay indoors, except for those few minutes when I step out to buy hot akara for my akamu). I am spent. You know, I have applied to a couple of places now. Let me start with the first: LS Health Service Commission At the State Health servic...

LIKE FAITH AND LOVE

Gal 5:6 - For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love. The heart and the lungs are like faith and love, their functions intertwined, their locations proximate, the feelings that they generate just as conclusive. They produce hope for the survival of the physical body, just like faith and love produce hope for the spiritual body’s survival. Experiences of today made me realize something: we need faith intertwined with love to breathe as spirit beings, as much as we need the functional capacity of our cardio-respiratory apparatuses to breathe the breath of life. It’s that important…faith and love I mean.
