The Wrong Ship
It's been a while I have written something. But unlike other writers, my writing flows freely when it's something I have heard for a while, pondered upon n I've become passionate about (at least for that while)
Ok. So here is one of such things that I have bred upon for a while.
I have derived this note from a story in the bible which for the purpose of this note I will take in isolation.
God sent Jonah to Nineveh for a reason. However, he refused to go and entered into the wrong ship.
I will liken this to many of us today who have similarly entered into A wrong ship called Relationships.
Now, being that he was in a wrong ship, the journey was good for a while but not for too long. The effect of his wrong decision soon became evident. The ship began to sink. A wrong relationship may be good for a while but not for too long. It will soon sink.
The inhabitants of the ship thought that the goods will solve the problem. It didn't! A wrong relationship can't be resolved with material things or things of the flesh. The only solution is to make the right decision.
Until Jonah got out of that ship, there was no peace. While there is time, get out of that wrong ship. God will still send that 'fish' to save you. The ship may have sank killing all it's inhabitants if Jonah didn't make the right decision.
While you can, while you have the time, get out of that wrong ship- relationship, friendship, partnership, companionship, leadership, discipleship, followership, worship.
Make the right decision now!
And just incase you are wondering, if you are in the right ship, know that Christ will be there to calm the storm like He did when he was on the ship with His disciples.
Remember, they were in the right 'ship'. Also, the storm didn't care that Christ was on the sea. But because the disciples were in the right ship, the called on Christ and He calmed the storm.
So definitely, there will be storms! But if you are in the right ship, it will never sink!
You get my drift?

2012: What will you bring to the table?
As someone said, there are two categories of people. Those who can't wait for the new year to come and those who can't wait for the old year to leave. I must admit I am not certainly sure which category I fall into but I can say that 2011 was a good year for me. I landed where I least expected myself, in a good way though, and I have God to thank for that. I haven't written about my new location, which is something I surely want to do.
This should be my first post of the year but somehow, 2 videos have come before it. This post is nothing particularly interesting as I just wanted to put up something for the new year, thanks to Abdullahi.
Just a quick peek at 2011. It was all work really, basically work. However, it wasn't all so smooth. I got to learn a lot as the year blossomed, career wise, street wise and 'general education'. Obviously, in life, you win some and you loose some. I lost some and I won some.
Thanks to Yemi square, I was able to drop of a load before the new carriage came along to whisk me away into a new journey. I thank God and them.
Now I ask myself, what will 2012 bring? I have never been one to make new year resolutions, I take things as they come. I make plans but may not eventually stick to it. All the same, my career comes to the fore of my plans this year and I hope to do as much as I can on it.
In all, I wish everyone a great year. I have realized there is a lot to learn so you may as well want to learn something. Just ensure that 2013 doesn't meet you where 2011 left you.! All the best!

Since I saw this video, I have been watching it over and over again! I am still a sucker for dance and I am sure I will always be, no matter my age! I love this routine especially from 1:52 where they did a routine to Peter Andre's mysterious girl. The routine of their final performance is also great! I still wish for an opportunity to execute my dance talent, really. So for dance lovers like me, enjoy! Its Chris and Wes from Got to Dance!
This really got me thinking...
You will agree with me that there are so many controversies surrounding religion, Christianity, beliefs and the likes. I stumbled on this video and it really got me thinking. For classification purpose is the only reason why Christianity should be called a religion, in my opinion. As the saying goes, "the bible is not the best amongst its equals because it has NO EQUAL!!!" Watch the clip, its worth thinking about...
