ON THIS MORNING (OTM)

_When you tell me- ‘I Love You’, they are words taken seriously and I do count on you to show it._ _When you continue to show me you love me, it will certainly gladden my heart. However, when I find out your actions were ill-conceived or tied to what I could do for you; then your actions amounts to virtually nothing._ *Beloved, in Christianity,Words=Actions* *[From OTMDevotional'19,Jan 14 Titled-Words=Actions]* *SO I SAY: Do you take your words seriously?.... Do you walk your talk?... A heart that pleases God do not end at thoughts and words but are sincere at turning them into actions that only honour God and nothing else- Otuosquotes_* https://www.amazon.com/dp/1797890492?ref_=pe_3052080_397514860

*_You won't let go?...Okay,you are the one destroying yourself... It is you who is not free...it is you who has something in your chest....it is you who keep on wasting precious time trying to spoil the other...it is you who will grow bitter and then..._* [ From OTM Devotional'19 Jan,13- Titled: *Why Don't You Let It All Go*] *SO I SAY:TO YOU- Please Let it all go.(Forgiveness)* https://www.amazon.com/dp/ 1797890492?ref_=pe_3052080_ 397514860    

No matter the storm, tremors, quakes and hurricanes that this ‘dunya’(World) brings us, God brought us here not  just to survive but to Thrive... We WERE and are made to #FLOURISH...And this is the lesson we pick from the *Palm Tree* today. _Trees generally snap, or at least lose a few branches, when faced with hurricane-strength winds. Not palm trees. These staples of the tropics typically bend during gusty weather. For starters, unlike traditional trees, palm trees are not made of wood. "Instead, you'll find a jumble of spongy tissue, scattered instead of arranged" inside a palm..._ _Most trees lay down rings as they grow every year. But not the palm tree; some of its cells are malleable, and others can easily flex and then return to their original position. [Its] lack of conventional structure is what gives the palm its flexibility and makes it supremely adapted to the gentle island breezes that periodically coalesce into ruthless hurricanes...

12- year old Paapa sat in Nana’s rocking chair mimicking his Granny.  _‘This is reminiscent of the Good old Days’._  Nana said thoughtfully. Paapa stopped and asked... _‘Are we doing anything re-mi-ni-sc-ent of those Good old Days._ Granpa paused, gathered his thoughts and answered... *_ ‘I guess if for nothing at all, it can start with you. What is your Life?’_* *SO I ALSO ASK: _What is your Life?..._* ( *THIS IS YOUR TERSE STORY...More to Come*) https://www.amazon.com/dp/ 1797890492?ref_=pe_3052080_ 397514860

Charley, How far… Are you done?... Can we go?...Can I get it? _(As the person asks this, he looks at you expecting a positive feedback but mostly…)_ Today is the 16th of May, 2019. It is clear it is not the beginning of the year but almost  mid-way into the year. This came to me which is one great reminder of a message: *HOW FAR today… with just some few hours into it?  It looks like you are already approaching it like the failings of yesterday. HOW FAR with some 5 Months into the year…those plans for the year…Are you on course to achieving them… the challenges, discouragements, all the hardwork to no avail?.... I guess that is why the message is here. *HOW FAR with that smelly attitude that nearly made you lose what is dear to you. You thought of changing but the last encounter you had…. *HOW FAR with the work assigned to you months ago which is due in a week, HOW FAR with that School project,  and HOW FAR with your p...

For someone like me, who loves to write, going off all this while has been good and bad. Hey, Good morning and great to be back to serve you with your All Round devotional- ON THIS MORNING. This is the special or what i call the Deluxe edition owing to the fact that we have the book * On This Morning 2019(The Next Up)* out on Amazon and in hard copies as well(contact for copies) We say it is Deluxe/Special because these are additional messages we are adding to the main devotional and so it won't be as frequent as it used to be. However, i assure you the content will continue to WOW you as usual(maybe than the book itself) The theme for this edition is FLOURISH'19. To Flourish is to *grow , thrive , prosper , do well, develop , burgeon , increase , multiply , proliferate ; spring up..       Beloved, this is who and what God has made us (Christians) and especially this year which is a message he laid on my heart ...
