Sense (less) Drama



The world is a stage and the people in it are the cast
Can we say God is the director?
Are the cast listening to the director?     
Are the cast acting the script properly?
If not
Should we blame the director that has allowed his cast run awry?
Should we blame the cast for not listening to the dictates of the director?
On whose shoulders lies the death of the victims of the Dana Air plane crash?
Or the victims of the senseless bomb blasts in and around the Northern parts of Nigeria?
Or may be this set of people just acted their script
Why have they left the stage abruptly?
Is this a standing ovation I hear?
Why the tears of anguish?
Why the pain?

2 Chronicles 7:14  “If my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land”(NIV Translation)

What a Friend we have in Jesus


What a Friend we have in Jesus,
all our sins and griefs to bear!
What a privilege to carry
everything to God in prayer!
O what peace we often forfeit,
O what needless pain we bear,
All because we do not carry
everything to God in prayer.
(Words: Joseph Scriven (1857)

This hymn is so deep. It got me thinking… …….

Why worry, when I have an anchor so faithful
Why faint, when I have a shoulder to lean on
When will I learn to carry everything to God in prayer?
When will I rely on God without hesitation?
When will I trust without making provision for “just in case”?

Cast all your burdens on him
……………..no holding back in our trust…….
…………….knowing he who has promised is able….

To the Relatives of the June 2, 2012 Dana Air Crash Victims







Just one wish
To bring smiles to the face of grieving hearts
Just one wish
To shine God’s light into grieving hearts
Just one wish
To give a reason for life to grieving hearts
Just one wish



Oh, how I wish I could make the pain go away
Oh, how I wish you all know I feel and share your pain
Oh, how I wish I could hug you all
Oh, how I wish I could bring your loved ones back again



** I have been short of words since this air crash occurred. This pain feels like it’s never going away.  For once, words have failed me, however, to everyone I say God will heal our hearts.
However, those of us alive owe those who died the duty of making sure that avoidable accidents like this  NEVER EVER happen again.
