Anybody remembers Leah? The woman from the bible? The woman who forcefully got married before her younger sister because that was the tradition in her village? The woman that no matter how hard she tried, she was unable to make her husband love her the way how she was supposed to be loved? The woman who named 3 of her sons after her pain and only named one to glorify God? The woman who was so self centered, she refused to acknowledge that unlike her sister, God gave her the opportunity of baring children. I'm guessing we all remember this story. I will not get in depth on it but let me simply define the name "Leah." Leah means : Broken soul, Deep-hurt. Discouraged and tired . Not too long ago, I was so broken, I found myself in constant tears. The reason being, was because I came to a full acknowledgement of my life and nothing made sense. Everything was a mess. Nothing was going my way. I usually give myself pep talks " Glo ! , you're not there yet , you...

" If the plan in your life doesn't work, change the plan and not the goal. " Lately , I have been going through a dry season nothing has been going my way and every time I try something different. it always fails. I'm really stuck in one place and nothing is moving. I detest set backs ! I detest failing and lately it's been the very thing that has been happening ! I've been asking God why this was happening but even in that area .. I've gotten no answers . instead of thanking God for setbacks because clearly there is a reason why they are there! I complain .. a whole lot. This is my test. A test that teaches me how to be humble. How to venture outside of the box. My heart is not where it needs to be. As much as I convince myself that it is. It isn't. Then I find myself running away from my future because I think that it's me against the world. Dear God , teach me to stay focused on you no matter the setbacks allow that my heart ...

I want to be the gravity that pulls people towards me  a good Aura the kind of flower that grows in the wilderness and catches everyone's attention  I want to be a Samuel ,  someone who you can't get away from so easily. someone who sees the good in you so well that you choose to stay by their side because no matter their flaw, they can still keep you grounded . I want to be that person  I want to make an impact .. I want for my soul to be so close to pure that my aura comes off as extra-ordinary . Dear God , as I Grow up please keep me grounded & allow that I be the gravity that pulls people towards me as you work in me . that your will be done through me .  I want to be the one that you use to impact other people . I am desperately in need of you.
