DEAR DISTINGUISHED---If God



Dear Distinguished, 
   What can separate you from the love of Christ? A happy family? Three square meals with appetizers and desserts? Admission? All A's or a perfect G.P.? Pride? Laziness? Procrastination? Peer pressure? A sickness or a disease? 

   Okay, okay, okay... I get it. These are the least of your worries ehn? Or I even mentioned a particular shoe that itches you I just do not know where or how hard it's biting? You'll have to forgive me dearest. I may not be able to diagnose what you're going through but I do know an ever present help -tested and trusted (winks).

    And guess what, He does not just care and leaves the healing to God. He cares, cures and makes whole. He asks you to cast all your cares on Him. He's concerned about you and wishes above all things that you prosper. By now you know Who I'm referring to. Don't you? 

   With Jesus in your boat, all the storms will be calmed. The presence of Jesus doesn't guarantee the absence of storms, it assures you of overcoming. If God be for you, who can be against you? If God be with you, who shall you fear?  If no one knows you, still His heart adores you. You are safe. You are loved. You are healed.

Let your light shine continually. If God is for you, your candle will never burn down. 

Selah,
The Distinguished.

7 Reasons why you shouldn't delve into a relationship as a teenager.

Relationships are really sweet. When I say relationship, I mean romance/love relationship. And if you’ll agree, teenage love relationships are usually the loveliest. You guys are still rocking your teen adventure, full of energy and glowing looks. Nowadays, it is somewhat strange to see an average 21st-century teenager who’s never been or isn’t in a love bond. They call it boyfriend and girlfriend and it’s been made so obligatory that there are some insecurities you feel when you are not in one. In my secondary school days, I could remember how guys who had no girlfriend were evacuated from groups in the class. Nobody wants to regard you if you’re not among. So, everyone seeks to have a love relationship even when they are far from the prerequisites. Having a love life in your teenage years isn’t a bad thing to do. Of course, there are folks whose relationship survived the storms and are now happily married. It works, but it’s almost rare. A lov...

Journey With My First Boo 2

Image
We started talking and he went to the issue of kissing but this time, he said he would not force me if I wasn't ready. I was deeply in love with him. (or so you thought) I closed all the windows so no one would see us and I said “Kiss me”. He kissed me and he said “let's have Sex”. {Insert mysterious tune here} I told him I was a Virgin and that there would be blood everywhere and he jokingly said, “how many tanks of blood do you have there?”. He told me there was a way he would do it and everything was going to be fine. I felt that I was ready and I was really going to have sex with him but I remembered something. My elder sisters got pregnant when they were teenagers and I was just 16 as at that time. I told him to stop that I wasn't ready. Then he stopped and told me he was leaving. That was the last time I saw him and the relationship ended. It has been 3 years since then and we haven’t been communicating. You can guess what my age is now, right. I am in my last l...
