Onye kwe, Chi ya ekwe.

Onye kwè, Chi ya èkwè!

This morning, I was meditating on God's will for us...you know when you pray and end it with '...God let your will be done...'
I found out that God's will is that you decree a thing, believe it and it will be established.
John 14:14 says..."ask ANYTHING in my name, I will do."

You are a King-Priest. Decree as a king and believe like a priest...then God will enforce.
A book I read on anthropology of the IBO ethnic group, writes that one of the reasons for the success of the IBO race is because they Do Not resign their life to fate/destiny.

Thus the Ibo saying: "Onye kwè, Chi èkwè"...meaning...If you agree, God will agree with you.
If you decide today, to get up and be successful today, God will back your decision and grant you success.

Have a great day!

The Devil's Fork.




THE DEVIL'S FORK.

Stuck in a dilemma...
A plethora of decisions,
Of options below the belt.
Choices of where to go from hence.


Wither the cookie crumbles,
Thither the tide tumbles...


What is thy heart's better option?
What dost thou seeketh?
Whence doth thou getteth heart's peace?
Which road takes you a step closer to your desire???

SEXCAPADE 2

SEXCAPADE...2

...Then two villagers walked pass
To take a piss,
In our condo, of all places;
Oh! What fear that gripped our soul,
I was knocked back into reality-
The sacrilege we had committed.

I held her close- in comfort,
As our hearts pound outta our chest.
There we laid, stoic, in the dead of the night;
Mute as a mute,
As we observed the drunken rantings of our potential captors,
And endured the foul smelling rain bath.
What a twist, from heaven to hell!

Then came the million dollar question- what if we get caught?
In the testimony of two, a word is established;
We couldn't possibly deny flat.
Would they resort to blackmail?
Or have their own bite of my "cake"?
Or worst case scenario, have us do the dance of shame,
And excommunicated from the village?

Time froze again!
And their urine seemed endless.
Hearts in hand, clothes still unwrapped.
Panting and sweating in terror.

...would they proceed further...
...Oh-my!
...Is that torchlight I see...
...Good Lord!
...We are done for...

Alas, they turned around,
Then we heaved a sigh of relief.
That relief was short lived,
As a phone rings...
Griiin...Griiin...Griiin...

(Shiiiit!)

It gets louder...

Griiiiin...Griiiiiin...Griiiiiiiiiin...

One of them who had gone ahead looked back,
Towards our corner,
Tryna make the origin of the sound.

Oh no...we have been made!

Oh yes, we were made;
Made to feel abit at ease,
As the other partner picks-up, and walks away...

P.S
Then I muttered #sacrilege
And she asks, 'what is sacrilege?'
I answered...what we have just done.

SEXCAPADE

SEXCAPADE


In the eve before the dawn, the spirit of the night creeps in,
Bringing untold pleasures as the night unfolds,
The thoughts of the heart meets with the eyes,
Emotions welling up on the beak and the tip,
Guilty pleasures of forbidden treasure.

The soft moon lit the path,
As we sneaked into the solace of thorns and thistles,
Consumed by lust, at the risk of a loss.
Nothing could kindle this wild fire...
As the charge spreads through,
Torrential current intercepts,
One-two, the house is down;
Three-four, lock and load,
Thrusting us into the galaxy of milky way.

Silent noise filled the air,
Words unheard and sights unseen,
Moaning in unknown tongues,
And seeing things from cloud nine,
Relishing every kiss and midas touch,
Swimming in an ocean of passion,
No style could serve, spontaneity at its best;
As we journeyed into the third heaven.

A splendor of radiance filled my groins,
As we approached the orgasmic gate of heaven...
Then I blacked out...time froze.
All I could see were angels...flying in the ninth cloud
Could this be heaven or was I dreaming?
Either ways, I didn't wanna be awoken....

#ABUSED

I yielded in fear, for fear is all I've known.
The rod, Aunty does not spare,
For every missed step.
Uncle gives me comfort at the expense of his "rod".
Took my innocence and my sense of worth.

The million "whys " in my heart,
The ocean of tears in my eyes,
The quiet screams in my head,
The unseen battles in my mind...
Who will save me from this despair?

My life is torn apart.
I didn't choose to be born without.
Would that life was far from me,
That I could  someday park my bags and run afar...far away to nowhere.

Hope Against Hope


If I were to write, what would I write?

My thoughts, my sights, my opinions into words.
-of a tunnel with no light, sky with no stars...
Or of the spotlight of stardom, the shooting stars in the galaxy.
Not all that is looked is seen, nor said, heard.
The third eye telescopes than the microscope.

When the clouds be full, it rains...and it's about to;
Can you feel the East wind, West, North and South?
Don't flinch else you'll miss....

For glory, you'll have more, if you cast your ore
Through the fiery furnace,
Of rejections and setbacks,
Of No and Nos.

Yet you keep going because you know,
For yesterday's Nos, the morrow might be a Yes.
You robe in that dress that cloaks your stress and brings your best.
For you know there is hope of a better tomorrow,
Of spotlight, of stardom, of a shooting star up in the sky!

What Is In A Name

WHAT IS IN A NAME.... A Rose 🌹by any other name, would smell as sweet

When I was serving in Bayelsa state, I was posted to The ministry of Transport, which was what I wished for. However, I wasn't satisfied. I wanted more...more money and more productivity.
Then one day, an old school mate met me at the Nccf bayelsa family house. He had won the 1st runner up for the Governor's award of Outstanding Corps member for 2015/2016. 
In the course of our reconnection, I narrated- to him, how things were tough in Bayelsa and how I wanted more. 
Then he said something that not only struck me, but gave me the required thrust from wishful thinking to decision making. He said to me: "Guy no dull o, you be FUTO student!"

And instantly, that was all the Holy Ghost push I needed to jump on my feet and hit the street.
And what was the result, I got a school (extra PPA), an accommodation, extra moral classes, my choice subject...good pay and experience. Still blended well with my PPA.

That is what a name can do. I couldn't possibly fall my FuTo-hand esp after seeing another FUTOite bag an award.
Not just FUTO, I have voluntarily taken up some leadership roles because I remember that I am a Rotaractor; or that my name is Eric, which means King/Leader; or that I am/was a JesusCorper; or a Christian

Be conscious of your identity, it's a great self motivator.
I am proud to have been a FUTOite, I am proud to be a Christian, we are doing great world over!

I love NCCF Bayelsa family (The Kingdom Ambassadors).


On the flip side....

I applied for a job somewhere, after the HR staff perused my CV and letter, nodding head in appraisal...
Then I asked him, what next? 
He said I should await their call for exam and interview.
And I was like: hmmm, nawa o! Exam...interview...
In a bid to reassure me, he then said...
Shey you are a FUTO student na?!
And I was like...
FUTO student ké...I am a Jesus student o!
Who futo eppp!
