Wow, Old things have passed away.

 Not many people know me, most times, people never truly do.

At this moment in time, a lot of things exist happening simultaneously around the world. Some good some bad. These things eventually come to you in the form of people and events, you 'taste' the world. You witness its beauty and ugliness.

Each new experience forms your person.

You learn you unlearn, you relearn. I'm going to be 24 years in two days. This feels like such a huge number. Do I feel my age? Nope. 

Since my mum passed 8 years ago, I had felt stuck in time. Never really growing up mentally because there were no longer parental markers to highlight my growth.

You were on your own. 

I noticed I still craved things, juvenile things as I aged, and I wanted them with the fervency I would have had, when I was younger.

I talked to my brother about this and he was able to help me get out of that state.

Now I'm not afraid to grow up. It's a blessing to be able to grow up. God made you, He knew what would happen, that I wouldn't grow up with my parents, that was why He became my strength.

He replaced my parents and raised me Himself. Talk about having the Creator raise you Himself.

What have I achieved? First, I'm saved by Christ. That is still my biggest achievement.

The second is that He's using me to save others.

Even as I experienced the good and the bad of this world, and my person formed, I didn't lose myself, who I was at my core. 

I now understand the world better but I found that nothing could make me waver. 

No one will be able to change my mind about what I believed in. It took a lot of falling and rising but my mindset is cemented in God's word.

If the world decides to be turbulent, I'll be the unmoving rock that breaks the head of the tide.

One thing is for certain, I shall fulfil my destiny whether the devil likes it or not. He cannot stop me. He knows. But he's trying to delay me, devil you can't.

He threw things at me thinking I would fall, but it only kept strengthening my resolve each day, I will become a force to be reckoned with, the darkness' worst nightmare.

I shall inherit this world because the meek shall inherit the world.


I am LIGHT, UNDER GOD. AND THIS WORLD SHALL KNOW HIM.

The fear has passed away.

The thin line.

This content was created on the second of January 2026. I've decided to journal about my life now, my lived experiences, claim back my identity. Because for years now all I've been doing is floating. 2025 was a win, but it was all done on auto pilot. I was in my mind most of the time, stuck between the past, present and future, not sure which one to live in. People don't talk about what comes next after you've used up your strength to the point where all you have left are fumes. Everything keeping you steady suddenly runs out and then you're left in limbo, surviving yes but never truly living. You still get things done, still get called excellent but only you know what the voices say about you not yet living up to your potential.  To understand where it all went wrong, first you need to go back to the beginning or rather the end, the time in your life when the camel's back broke. Then retrace your steps, see how it influenced your choices, your habit...

The Earth Will Be Beautiful

  So, it's Monday. I never did have anything against Mondays because 'man gats to work'. As I'm still a student and also an entrepreneur, those words have never been truer. I wanted to write yesterday but ended up writing a very short response to a prompt instead. Don't worry, I'll upload it later😉. The genre is 'horror' though, thought to tell you in advance. I dreamt some months back, I have the gift of dreams, one of the many gifts given to me by the Holy Spirit. The dream was very deep. 'Evil' as they like to do, prevented the dreamer's every step to vanquish them, but at the end of the day, the Lord became my escape and I heard a song; "The Earth Will be Beautiful." It went from me fearing the oppressive presence in the dream to being happy, prophesying what will come to be. This word is to encourage you that no matter how much you see evil spreading understand that one day they will be no more and that day is muc...

24 HOURS

A Short Flash Fiction, where a man sold his soul to the devil in return for his mother's life. ENJOY! * * * I could barely breathe with the dirty horse sack over my head. I was panting as I tried figuring out where they were taking me. I wasn't wearing any shoes, so I felt every sharp pinch of the rocks against my feet. "Where are you taking me?" I managed to grit out but my words came out incoherent against the dirty rag rubbing me in the face. Finally, we stopped and I was brought to my knees by a rough kick to my legs. "Welcome, Bill." A voice said to my left. The sack was taken off me and I saw my fellow co-worker at the local Wall-mart. "Mike?" I looked around me and saw the two men that had led me here. They weren't any people I knew. I looked around; it seemed like a basement of some kind. They kept some wine bottles in cribs on the wall. We were in a wine cellar. "What was so special about this place that you had to gag me and cove...
