Forgetting the God of yesterday


Still moving and some staying 
They all had a past. 
Walking through the path of life. 
At a point in time 
They were all in slavery
And with their hearts and cry 
they desired freedom.
He heard their call and sent deliverance
A reward He gave, 
the golds and wealth of the land they had toiled.

The journey continues
Still moving
At the sense of hunger they had forgotten. 
If He did it before, He will do it again
For they had desired to eat by the fleshpots 
eating the bread of sorrow.
They had settled for something worse than less.
He had them in mind for He loved them with an everlasting love.

Still moving
They muttered, forgetting the God of yesterday. 
He still remains and forever will be. 
Giving indistinct sounds and speech.
Still, 
He heard them even in their murmuring.
How much more if they had touched His heart with appreciation 
Greater would He have released. 
He said that we should ask and not to grumble.
Asking in thanksgiving, with joy and appreciation.
He will perform.

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...
