My Grandson,


The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long. Don't be quick to burn bright, desire to burn long...better it is to outlast the competition than to drop dead in the brightness of your glory. Life is longer than a hundred meter race and you need unfailing stamina not lightning speed


Your Granny,

My Grandson,


I agree I don't have the formula; the equation just won't balance. I don't know what's missing but I know my mortality & fallibility are my limitations. Today, I cast it all into His hands; ALL as in ALL. I want to sleep soundly through out the night, walk lightly thru the day and laugh freely. If He so freely gave me His only Begotten Son, when I yet knew Him not, what else will He keep from me? Still, I trust.

No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules. [2Tim 2] I think a lot of us are wasting our time pretending to be running for God yet running with our own rules and not His Rules for the Race. We all risk being disqualified...

My Grandson,


Our faith must not be operated like a Suburban African operating an iPhone 4 – Making & receiving calls. Your faith should not be limited to your knowledge of God's existence. There is more it can do. There are mountains to be moved; barriers to overthrow; seas to be part; Lions' mouths to be shut, lives to save. Let's change the gears cus I can't stand to accept they couldn't find my faith under the Microscope!

My Grandson,


Do not confuse those you love with those who can do the job. Everyone should be measured objectively according to their capabilities. Jesus loved John and committed His mother to him, as well as the endtime revelation. However, He needed a strong man, Peter, to build a formidable and eternal church for Him. Can we say as individuals we fail because we cannot draw this line?

My Grandson,


If you lose your stance on a matter and give up on your convictions someone will come and push you over. You can only give up to the voice of sound wisdom and not the voice of popular unproven views. In a world where everyone thinks they are right, your best companion is your gut instincts. Better to die in your convictions than to die thru someone's opinion after they forced you to give up on your convictions.

Every great Craftsman has a different tool for each stage of his work. There are some tools you will never know what they are for until they are put to use. When your life and innermost desires seem void and without form, remember he who has began a good thing in you know what he is doing and he has a tool ready for each stage of your life. Cheer up, you will come out perfectly fine...Still trusting...

My Grandson,


Ask yourself; is this the best wine? Cus it will be sad to get drunk on cheap wine while the best is yet to be served...Life is like that; You are likely to weary yourself on the worthless things...before the best is revealed...Patience is a virtue...Pray for it...God we need it...
