“In everything”



Hello Friend!

Giving thanks in everything means that even when things are not looking good, you should still be thankful. Imagine a narrative of someone who just lost everything they had within the twinkling of an eye; with all of the turmoil going on in their head, do you think it will be easy to be thankful at that point?


We may be going through a difficult time in our lives, but cultivating a habit of gratitude can make things a lot easier. Here is how:


Here is how:



  • Remember that God cares for you so much and His thoughts towards you are good. Read Jeremiah 29:11.


  • Look deep into your life, there are many thousands of blessings you never recognized. Read Psalms 77:11-12.


  • Be mindful that things will get better and shift your focus away from the hurts, guilts, and things that went wrong. Read John 14:27.


  • Make thanksgiving a habit. Take some time out of each day to thank God, worship Him and glorify Him for how faithful He is. Read Psalms 106:1.


  • Trust God’s plan, because His ways are not our ways. Read Proverbs 16:3.


  • Meditate on the word of God daily and seek to know Him more. Knowing God more makes our faith in him even stronger. Read Joshua 1:8.

  • Even when nothing makes sense,  remember God knows the beginning and the end. Read Isaiah 46:9-10.


Take away

If you ever feel discouraged, close your eyes and look back at how far you’ve come. Remember how God has never left you, remember the grace that brought you thus far.

What type of Christian are you?

Sister Rose was stopped at the gate of heaven, and confusion filled her face. “What is going on here?” she asked. “My name is Sister Rose Agatha, the General Choir Director of the Association of Christian Choristers in my country. What do you mean I’m not qualified to enter?” The angel looked at her calmly. “I’m sorry, ma, but the gate has been shut against you. Many are called, but few are chosen” (Matthew 22:14). She felt offended. “Sir, with all due respect, you must be mistaking me for someone else. I served God all the years of my life on earth. Do you know how many choir groups I headed? How many crusades I was invited to? I was very popular.” “The Kingdom of God is not about popularity,” the angel replied. “What quality of service did you render to God? Was it for His glory or to please men? Remember, ‘For we must all stand before Christ to be judged… each of us will receive whatever we deserve for the good or evil we have done in this earthly body’” (2 Corinthians 5:10). “An...

Drifting Away (Part 1)

Chidi was known as a devoted brother—quiet, disciplined, and deeply committed to God. He was one of those people whose life seemed to reflect his faith effortlessly. In his church, he served faithfully in the choir, never missing rehearsals, always present, always focused. People admired him, not just for his voice, but for his consistency. Outside church, Chidi worked as an operations assistant in a fast-growing fintech firm. He was diligent, respectful, and serious about his job. His life seemed steady—until things began to change. One morning, news spread across the office that their boss had resigned. A new manager was appointed—a confident, well-spoken woman. She was married, but from the moment she met Chidi, something about him caught her attention. At first, it was subtle. “Chidi, can you stay back for a few minutes after work? I’d like to go over something with you,” she said one evening. Chidi nodded politely. “Yes ma.” But the “work discussions” soon ...

The beauty of God’s mercy

  God’s mercy is  one of the most beautiful expressions of His love toward us. It is constant, undeserved, and always available—no matter our past or present. The Bible reminds us that “The faithful love of the Lord never ends! His mercies never cease. Great is His faithfulness; His mercies begin afresh each morning” (Lamentations 3:22–23 NLT). Every new day is proof that God has not given up on us. His mercy is not limited or conditional. “The Lord is merciful and compassionate, slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love” (Psalm 103:8 NLT). Even when we fall short, He responds with patience and kindness rather than judgment. God’s mercy reaches into every area of our lives. “Let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most” (Hebrews 4:16 NLT). In our moments of weakness, confusion, or need, His mercy is always within reach. It is also through His mercy that we are saved and sust...
