WARNING SIGNS (1)- “Harmless Social Media Clips”

I noticed that in a bid to catch some rest off work, I spent time from one social media clip to the other. You click on one video teaching that blesses you. The next is also a powerful teaching, but the one afterwards is a movie clip with suggestive words, indecently dressed and suggestive scenes. Then you stumble on clips that […]

One of my sons in the Lord who is just growing in the faith mentioned that he had been plagued for a season with the fear of death in his life and his family. He had become fearful.

YOU CAN NOT FEED IF YOU ARE NOT FED

As we returned home that day, Danielle began to show signs that she was hungry. Irewamiri tried different means to placate. It would seem to work for a while as we distracted her momentarily. Then she would begin to throw tantrums again. We made it home and then the tears went to a new level. Irewamiri though moved by her […]
