LET’S TALK ABOUT “HEALING” TODAY!!

 

Before and After everything else, Healing comes first.

You heal before you take a new step, and you heal after you meet the chaos and catastrophe.

Healing is a deeply personal journey.
Realistically, there’s nothing like a one-size-fits-all approach to healing.
If your path looks different from others, don’t be disheartened; embrace your own journey and trust that it’s leading you exactly where you need to be.
No one knows how much you’ve been through, the paths and routes you’ve been to or you’ve had to take.

I read something that said; “May the quality of people you attract be a reflection
of the healing and hard work you’ve put into yourself over time.”
No matter how much you wish you could, there’s no way you can control how
another person feels or thinks about you.
That’s why it is important to surround yourself with people who are committed to understand
who you truly are.
The kind of people that are soft and gentle with your heart and soul,
the ones who will let you be yourself and make you smile with their presence,
those who are warm and make you feel safe and understood.

Be in a constant state; allow things to come and go. Detach yourself from stories that say you aren’t whole. You can’t heal when you don’t remove yourself from what’s causing you pain.
Healing isn’t about arriving at a place where everything is rosy but learning to develop the ability to respond and plant your own garden of roses.

Therapy with blossom wrote; “Sorrow is a teacher.
without periods of lowness, we may never question our
circumstances or make necessary adjustments.
We may lack deeper empathy.
We may never truly appreciate the highs, either.  But most importantly, we must HEAL.”

Build the power of your discernment; honour and protect it.
Give yourself grace and put it to heart that;
“Nothing about your healing journey is wrong.”
Take your time, choose to move slowly; one small shift at a time and you will get there.

As you heal, as you search for peace in the midst of chaos know that; “you may never get back
to the person you were before it all happened. The trauma, the abuse, the assault, the discrimination, the stigma, the depression, your rights being violated, the segregation, the pain and the hurt but let go of it all, you are someone who has survived a storm. HEAL!!!

STRETCHING MY FAITH

  As I step into this new month, I stretch my faith beyond what I can see, believing in the power of your greatest miracles and divine intervention. I refuse to be limited by the constraints of my own understanding, instead, I choose to trust in your sovereignty and goodness. Your word reminds me that "faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen" (Hebrews 11:1), and I cling to this promise, knowing that you are faithful to fulfill your plans for my life. I refuse to be paralyzed by fear, for I know that it is not from you. Instead, I choose to embrace challenges as opportunities for growth, knowing that "in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose" (Romans 8:28). I am not defined by my circumstances, but by my identity in you. I proclaim that I am a force to be reckoned with – not because of my own strength, but because of who I am in you. I have poured out, sacrific...

LOST FOCUS

  People said Kude was focused. He liked it that way. To him, focus meant silence around his decisions, silence around emotions he did not want to manage, and silence from people who expected more from him than he was willing to give. Kude believed feelings were inconvenient. Not feelings in general; just the ones that came from others when they became complicated. He dated women, but he did it like someone selecting useful arrangements for a life already planned. If a woman had money, he stayed close. If she was kind and emotionally available, he enjoyed the comfort without asking himself whether he was giving the same back. He liked being treated well. Like a king sitting quietly in a palace he never built. He expected respect, attention, and small sacrifices — the kind people make when they care about someone. But when a woman tried to express what she felt, Kude's expression changed. He would listen without really listening. Then he would say her feelings were st...

TANGLED IN SHADOWS

In the depths of my unraveling, I'm tempted to surrender To the siren's whisper, a numbing, sweet thunder I'd trade the ache of awareness for the calm of the grave But the echoes of my heartbeat whisper, "You still crave". To breathe, to feel, to hurt, to rise, to fall The noose of my past tightens, a relentless, cruel call I'm suffocating under the weight of what I've done A prisoner of my memories, forever undone. The ghosts of my yesterday haunt me, a relentless crew Reminding me of the shards I've yet to glue I'm searching for a way out, a glimmer of light But the shadows they surround me, a perpetual night. In this darkness, I'm lost, a wanderer without a map The stars that once guided me, now just a distant trap I'm clingling to the fragments, the broken, shattered me Praying for a miracle, a chance to be set free. But what if the weight of my chains is what keeps me tied? What if the pain is the only thing that m...

THE GENTLE PRESENCE

In the silence of my suffering - I met God. It wasn't just in the spotlight. It was on the hospital bed, In the middle of the marital crisis, when the bank account hit zero, and when depression and anxiety couldn't lift; that was when I met Him. Not too loud, but real. Not flashy but faithful. He never waited till I was strong; He just showed up. All Gentle - Quiet - Present - Comforting. Not everything was fixed overnight but He gave me a deeper - kinder present; His peace - His nearness. In those moments of desperation, I realized that God's presence isn't about grand gestures or dramatic interventions. It's about His gentle whisper in the darkness, His comforting presence in the midst of pain. It's about finding solace in His nearness, even when everything else seems to be falling apart. As I reflect on those moments, I realize that God's faithfulness isn't dependent on my circumstances. He's not a God who's only present in the good ti...

LET’S TALK ABOUT SUICIDE DISEASE TODAY!!

Society thinks someone who is suicidal is a person who is crying uncontrollably every moment, engaging in dangerous activities and constantly in a bad state. At times, it’s the complete opposite. Persons who are suicidal may not act it at all. Suicide is not selfish. It is normally death caused by the illness of depression. It is the final symptom, a final collapse under unbearable weight. I read somewhere that said; “ Having anxiety and depression is like being scared and tired at the same time. it’s the fear of failure but no urge to be productive. It’s wanting friends but hate socialising. It’s wanting to be alone but not wanting to be lonely. It’s caring about everything then caring about nothing. It’s feeling everything at once then feeling paralyzingly numb.” Many people who suffer with poor mental health do actually reach out and are either ignored, fobbed off with high dosage medications or put on waiting lists for months. Such scenarios have a probability of leading on...
