With the drought childhood that I had, I always thought that marriage would be my healing place. My heaven on earth.
But it came later for me to realize, There is only one heaven. And it's not on Earth.

Seth Christian.

The only thing I have known my whole life is giving. Be a provider. I love it, I enjoy it, and I delight in it because I know deep down that it is my calling. I lived it until the time came for me to change position. To realize how harshly hard it is to be on the other side of taking. Of receiving. This is what really taught me true humility and that there is only One Giver, One Provider. One Savior. One God. Only Jesus Christ.
Marriage which I always saw as an endgame became a starting game

"Let's pray," I wanted to cry when he wanted to run out on me. He wasn't getting it and it hurt. I was in pain. This is killing us in the worst way that a human being can be killed.

Why did things like this happen to good people? We were good? I have been good my whole life, but why?

God, why such cruelty?

John 14:13 states; And I will do whatever you ask for in my name so that the Father's glory will be shown through the Son.

Blossom and Bloom Graceful and Tender - She couldn't believe her ears, or her eyes. Her husband, the man she loves, the father of her unborn baby, was asking for a divorce. "Mason," She stammered, but he held his hand up in the air. "I'll arrange a place for you and our child to stay, I'll send weekly support for the child. Just sign the papers," He urged her and handed her the pen. She took it hesitantly, hoping that this was only a dream, she prayed to wake up. "I love you," She whispered and signed her name on the allotted space. And though she would miss him, she knew better than to fight for a man's love. Somehow, he didn't love her anymore. It hurt her heart, but once a man made up his mind, nothing could make him change his mind. She even knew that much. She placed the pen down and walked to the door. "Goodbye," He looked up from the papers and smiled.

"Nevaeh you need to understand that life ain't a bed of roses. It has it's ups and downs but that doesn't mean you should blame God for that! Once in a while you lose people you love. It's not because God hates you or because he doesn't exists. It's because that's what is meant to happen." He said dropping his fanta. "God exists. And that's why you and I are still living" he finished. I frowned at him not wanting to press the issue further. He held my gaze, his eyes not leaving mine. I looked down at my plate trying to avoid his bold stare. "This sucks" I muttered. Daniel and Yimika are practically the same in this God thingy. How the heck did I get myself tangled with them?! ############## Have you ever come across someone with so much drama in their life? If you haven't... Meet Yemisi Nevaeh Simon, A fifteen years old Nigerian who has spent fourteen years of her life living in America but comes down to Nigeria with her family. Daughter of a well respected Godly Billioniare. Loves to express herself, cold hearted, mean, self centered, selfish and lots more. Used to be a Christian but things changed when her twin died in a 'gun shot' right behind her. She doesn't give up yet in searching for her twin because of the mysteries that keep unfolding. She meets Yimika Owolabi, the complete opposite of her, but like the saying, opposite attracts, they became best friends. She also meets Daniel, but after a loong time...they finally get along. What then happens when Tony comes? Because in my point of view, they are like birds of the same feathers so why didn't they want to flock together at the beginning? Fights for justice, Fights for love, Fights for right. There is a little plot twist though. Maybe or maybe not........... NO CUSSING, SWEARING OR MATURE CONTENTS.

"The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the World, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who did receive him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God--children born not of natural descent, nor of human decision or a husband's will, but born of God. The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth." (John 1:9-14) What that first Easter might have been like. The climax of God's plan for humanity, from Palm Sunday to Peter's reinstatement. Main title and chapter titles are from songs that I used to capture the mood of the moment, as it were, and I would really encourage you to listen to them. They are: Main title: "Glory" by The City Harmonic 1. without a crown: "Baby Boy" by For King & Country 2. the taste of eternity is here on our lips: "Taste of Eternity" by Bellarive 3. let me see redemption win: "Worn" by Tenth Avenue North 4. i heard a voice from the other side singing, "hold fast, love lasts.": "Without You" by For King & Country 5. when you know it, once you know it, and you hold it--it's unforgettable: "To The Dreamers" by For King & Country 6. keep my head from going down: "Something To Believe In" by Parachute 7. i could use a fresh beginning, too: "Learning to Breathe" by Switchfoot (cover by @sugarcrystals, who is amazing and you should really check out her work. Both writing wise and cover wise. I literally gave her "thunder storm themed" and she came up with that. Because I am useless at giving hints.)

"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Then you will call on Me and come and pray to Me, and I will listen to you. You will seek Me and find Me when you seek Me with all your heart." (Jeremiah 29:11-13 niv) ******** Her main list of standards before saying yes to a man are: • True believer of God/ man of God. • Has a good relationship with God. • Love God with everything he has. • Ask her hands from her parents before the courting. • And so on... At the age of twenty-eight, Lois is considered an old maid by her neighbors, friends, and some relatives. Though she enjoys her singleness, sometimes pressure puts her to think, is she willing to lower her standards just to be married? People said her standards are too high and nobody will ever reach there, especially in this time of the 21st century. Now come a suitor that promised to do everything to make her happy if just given a chance but as she looked closely he is the total opposite of the man she is looking for. Is he worthy for the chance? ••••••••••••••• Doctor Andro Leo Mercado-Martinez is; a former professional violinist of his country's orchestra symphony, a successful professor at one of the top Universities in the United States, a researcher with many publications, young and eligible but doesn't care about the word marriage. For him, one scar is enough for a man to learn his lesson in the matter of the heart. What he has is enough for him to rejoice. He has God that loves him more than anybody, family that adores him, and students that respect him. What more he needs? But one message is destined to change his life forever. Now, the question is: Is it for good? # baseonaTRUE STORY ***some attachments are credited to its rightful owner.
