Positive affirmation and gratitude.

“Be the reason someone smiles. Be the reason someone feels loved and believes in the goodness in people.”

Roy T. Bennett

What is greater than speaking positive affirmations into your life and seeing how the law of attraction works for you? The universe is always listening to us and it is what we want, we attract. Do you want a good day? Speak the good in the day to yourself and see things working in that line for you. I have always been careful of my life and the way I want it to be.

Whatever I don't want, I denounce immediately but there are times we feel demoralized and pessimistic because of what is happening around us, but trust me, God is always listening to our silent prayers and wishes.

As we were studying the Open Heavens manual yesterday in Church, the title was “He hears us”. While the lady was preaching to us, my mind was shifting away but I saw myself understanding that title in my own imagination. I love how I always pay attention to every detail of words and finding myself in another realm in my mind. It isn't that I don't follow what the lady or other people are always saying but seeing myself thinking about the topic differently is always what is on my mind and suddenly, I will return to reality and agree with whatever that has been said.

Believe me or not, God hears our prayers, even the prayer of sinners but which do you think He will answer quickly? It's of the righteous ones. Those who do His will and there are times we think He is delaying. He is not! It might be that He has already answered our prayers but we haven't seen it yet and other times, He will not do those things we expect because He knows best. He knows the answer to the prayers could harm us, and so, He had to stop it but know that He listens every time we pray to Him. We just need to keep praying and be patient for our time.

It's the end of the month today and by tomorrow which is Tuesday, we welcome the month of November. How has God been faithful in the last 31 days to you? Did you get answers to your past prayers? Did you have the opportunity to speak and stay with your family?

I spoke to my Dad some days ago, my elder sister called and we talked at length. I chatted with my immediate sister last night, checking on her if the flood didn't come to them. My younger brother has resumed back to school while the last born shared the good news yesterday that she went beyond the University's post utme cut-off mark.

Then, I called my grandma last night and her voice was great. This shows that God has been faithful to me this month over my family.

I got to achieve a lot from my blogging platforms this month and was able to meet some needs on my list. My laptop got working and I am so grateful because God has been gracious to me. To feed isn't something easy, especially for someone like me who has stopped receiving money from home but with God and my sources of income, things went well for me.

My sisters were concerned about my well-being but I told them not to be bothered but to relax because I am doing great every day. At least I am not begging to feed from them which they will feel bad with. Knowing well that I am capable of helping myself in a little way is something they are happy about.

I have always loved giving to people and I pay attention to people when they complain of their needs especially food, and when I extend my generosity, it makes me happy knowing that I could come through for them. Just last week, I was able to give a detergent soap to a lady whom I heard her complaining about not having any money to purchase soap to wash her clothes. She is a student and writing her exams. When I heard her from my room, I called her and gave her the detergent. She was so happy and prayed for me. That is what I need. Your prayers when I help. It makes God provide for me more to give.

I believe that whatever we have is not for us alone but to share and give part to people. That is humanity. So, whatever you have with you, remember it is not for your consumption alone but to give to others with love and happiness in you. God loves a cheerful giver.

Next month, I don't want to force myself but do the ones I can do so I can have more time to rest and think creatively. I hope that November favours every one of us here and beyond.

Thanks for your time.
