Say No to your comfort zone
First off, thank you for reading this far. From the first part, to this, the last part of the rowing series. Say No to your comfort zone is my own way of closing this series. I pray that you won’t read alone, but also act on these words. If you haven’t read any of the […]
Who is your leader?
When the team got to a certain point, we quickly realized we needed a leader. Fortunately for us, we had one on our boat. Who is your leader is the third part to the rowing series. If you haven’t read the second part, here’s the link. Please read it, before you go on. In Are […]
Are you pulling your weight?
Before this rowing experience, the words “pulling your weight” meant nothing special to me. However, I’m now a changed person and I’ll tell you why. This is the link to the first part of this series. Please read it before you go on. Before that faithful Saturday, I honestly believed I was pulling my weight. […]
Stay Calm
A few weeks ago, I ventured beyond my comfort zone. After some encouragement from my Supervisor, I decided to try rowing, although water and I are like A and Z. Stay Calm is the first part of the takeaway lessons from this experience. As it was my first time on a canoe, you should know […]
Friends not gods
Your friends are not gods. Those were the first words I heard when I woke up one morning. I didn’t think so much of it, until the Holy Spirit began to point me in the right direction. If you’ve been here for some time, you’d have read the article I wrote about having friends you’re […]

Unconscious bias
A few days ago, while reading the Foch woman devotional, Rubie – the author – wrote about Unlikely vessels. At the end of the page, for the reflection, she asks a question: How can you be more intentional about your unconscious bias? Before going any further, Bias means the action of supporting or opposing a […]
What’s your conviction?
A few weeks back, I was at a restaurant with a friend/mentee and we discussed convictions about dating. It prompted this article and If I may ask, what’s your conviction? About Christianity, dating, life, family, marriage, and the likes? If you were to define a conviction, how would you define it? From the Cambridge dictionary, […]
The Joy stealer
In John chapter 10, the Bible speaks of a certain thief. You know how when a thief enters a place, you sense fear. What will happen now? What do they want? Your joy, that’s what they want. The joy stealer wants all your joy. If you look closely at the first part of John 10:10, […]
The wrong justification
A few weeks ago, an incident occurred and I thought it to be a perfect example. A perfect example of a wrong justification. The reason God establishes standards is for your good and mine. It’s the same way Organisations create a list of standards, so you understand what to do and not do. Let’s use […]
