I Am Tired To My Bones
I am tired to my bones
But thank you Lord cos I have bones and they are not broken
Not one
I am covered in sweat and grime
But thank you Lord cos the home I have been cleaning is mine
All mine
My back hurts and I think my feet are swollen
But thank you Lord cos it felt good to clean my house my way
All day
My hair is still a mess and my nails even worse
But O Lord, thank you for the hope of tomorrow. As long as you give me life. I can fix all that. Tomorrow
My 2012 was not really as I wanted it to be.
But then again, my 2012 was much more than I thought it would be. So thank you for amazing me. Still.
My children still get on my nerves sometimes.
But, come on, Lord, thank you, I HAVE children to grate on my nerves.
To love
My mgm and I are in love/strangle relationship
But thank you PapaGod for our love trumps our desire to strangle each and every time!
All the time
I have not seen my sister and my brother in way too long and it hurts and I miss them
But then again, I feel them daily in my heart and that is closer than any plane ride can get me!
And it's free
*sighing and exhaling* Dear Fathermine, I am so tired, tired to my bones, even in some parts of my heart. YET, there is room, always room for thanks.
To You.
Yes, I am tired. To my bones
But I still have enough left in me to DARE TO BELIEVE that what is behind me cannot hold a light to what is before me in 2013! And that is balm for my tired bones!
But thank you Lord cos I have bones and they are not broken

PapaGod, I love You. PapaGod, I thank You. PapaGod, I appreciate who and what you are in my life.
This morning, at 5.10am, you kicked off a new thing. I am so happy you did that and I thank you for it. Papa please, every single praise, every single word of worship, every single word of thanks, let them be acceptable to you In Jesus name. Amen.
PapaGod, I have some serious requests to make right now. They mean a lot to me.
Please, give me the grace to relentless pursue holiness.
Please give me the grace and ignite in me a desire to cultivate my vertical love relationship with you so that my horizontal love relationships can improve
Please give me the grace to continuously praise and worship you each day that I breathe in Jesus name. Amen.
These are my chief prayers to you today in Jesus name. Amen.
Love you Papa. But I know you love me more. For that, I thank you.

Thank you for the well spring
PapaGod, who says you only want to hear about spiritual things? They lie. You care about ALL of me, all of my life. Thank you so much. Being a wife, a working wife has its issues. I thank you for my job but somehow it saps me of my drive. So I prayed to you. And you heard. PapaGod, I am grateful for your attentiveness and your understanding and really for the fact that you prove over and over that YOU are indeed able to fix ALL issues.
Thank you for the well spring of desire that wells up in me. Papa? Let in run over. Please. In Jesus name. I pray, Amen!
Oh and by the way Lord? I love you. I really do.

Way Maker, Do Your Thing
First of all PapaGod, thank you for giving me peace about my tomorrow. It has not been easy but I am getting better and keeping my peace about the future. I am grateful.
Thank you too for this door that you have caused to open for me. I was really surprised but then again, that is how you are. I brag on your name and appreciate you from the bottom of my heart. Papa, since you are the one doing this thing, could you please perfect it and make it easy and stress free. I don't need to tell you about the finances of this home right now. You know all about it so having to walk through this door you have opened will take some doing. YOUR doing. So please, Way-maker, do your thing. Do what only you can do. Show me that you are God in my life. In Jesus name, I am asking you.
That is really all I have to say about this. I am going back to chilling. Cos I promised not to fret about tomorrow. As you well know, if you don't do your thing, this way you have made, I will not be able to step into it. So PapaGod, my life is in your capable hands. As for me, I just want to be the best me in YOU for my family and myself. To the glory of your name.
Love you Lord but thank you for loving me way more.

Align My Free Will To Your Will
PapaGod, sometimes I wish you would just order me. Quit being such a gentleman and just make me do what is right for me and pleasing to you. But that is just not the way you are, is it? No, it is not and so today, I come to just thank you for letting your love flow over me regardless. Please Papa, I know it is all about free will but please fill me afresh with your Holy Spirit so that I will always align my free will to your will. Please PapaGod?
I am asking you in Jesus name.
Thank you.
Oh and by the way Lord? I really do think you are the best.

'Thank You' Sounds So Lame.......
But Papa, what else can I say to you. Look how you helped me out with this event. See how you favoured me in the sight of all the vendors. See how you O God most high lifted up your daughter above all the things that could have gone wrong. No rain, brand new and bigger venue and I did not pay a dime extra, good programme, great participation, no one got hurt, everyone had a blast, everyone has something positive to say. My PapaGod, I know it could only be you. Who am I? Nothing but what you make me. And you make me so much, so much and that is why at times like this, saying 'Thank you' just sounds so lame.
But thank you my PapaGod. Thank you so very much. I am so grateful. So, incredibly thankful.
I love you. Please accept my thanks and my love today in Jesus name. Amen.
To you alone by ALL the glory!

Life, Live In Me
Life, Live in Me
And dispel all that is death from within me
Giver and Sustainer of Life, let me live in you
That, in you, I will push back all that is death without
Light, Live in Me
And dispel all that is darkness within me
Light of the world, let me ever dwell in you
That all that is darkness around me flees at the sight of me
Peace, Abide in me
And dispel all the storms and white noise roaring in my head
Prince of Peace, let me abide in you
That with every word I release, every deed, calm is restored
Love, Fill me up completely
And dispel all that is fake and conditional within me
Agape Love, let me burrow deep into your heart
That all that is not borne of love dissolves into nothingness at my presence
PapaGod, all I am really saying is take me over.
Totally. Completely. Please.

It's Been a Whole Year PapaGod!
Papa, you amaze me. And I amaze myself by the number of times I still shake in the face of stuff in spite of all you have done, do and continue to do in my life. Are you not the one that kept your son, my son AK in college for a whole year? Was I there? Was it not you who watched over him and kept him and caused him to excel? What did I do? Nothing! It was all you. Yet, I still manage to fear. Forgive me Papa, even as you accept my thanks today.
I am beyond grateful for all you have done in his life, my life, our lives. You are the forever faithful Father and I do not want any other. Please help me to look to your first when ever storms begin to blow cos the truth of the matter is. In you, I will always overcome. In you, AK has overcome one year in a land so far away, adjusting to new things and a new way of life and study. Yet he did it. But not him but you in him.
Baba, modupe gidi ganni. Please, as you have done, continue to do for him, for his sister and brother and for all the children in our family. I use him, AK, as a point of contact to all those kids I know, let your favour and grace ever be upon them. Regardless of what we see in this world, they will shine to your glory in Jesus name. Amen.
Thanks again Daddy. I am grateful. Love you. But know you love me more.

Thanks For Being My Spine
Thank you PapaGod for being
The wind beneath my sails
The spring in my step
The swing in my arms
The spine in my back that helps me stand tall, confident, proud.
Regardless
Yes, in spite of all that swirls within my head.
You are my reason for standing.
Thank you PapaGod for being
The light of my life
The strength in my neck
The tilt to my head that makes me look serene and calm
Even when I am not.
Yes, in spite of all the lies the enemy tries to sell me
You are the steel in my limbs that keeps me solid.
Thank you. There can never be anyone like you in my life
Never.
The wind beneath my sails
The spring in my step
The swing in my arms
The spine in my back that helps me stand tall, confident, proud.

That I Might Forget
PapaGod, I love you and all I want to do in this life is be like you
To make you smile
But I cannot lie. I am seething on the inside
I think I am even finding it easier to forgive but forgetting? ......How do I do that Lord?
How do I forget this person that would hate me so much as to want to drag down so many families?
I don't know how but I know you do.
And that is why I come to you.
It's easy to forgive this time cos I dug deep into my heart where your love resides......
But please teach me, help me, lead me to a place where I can forget.
Thank you Papa as I come to you in Jesus Christ's name.
Amen.
And Papa, please all I have done, no matter how big or how little that has led to this situation , forgive me and more important, SHOW me but NOW I know better. I will not change who I am for I am molding myself on you BUT I will commit more than ever to be wiser, more discerning . I am so sorry for all who have been affected by this. So sorry. I pray you send restoration to all of our hearts and homes.
Thank you for always being there. Thank you for always standing by me. Thank you for always finding people to send to me to let me know.

I Don't Need to Understand
Papa, so much is going on and I am trying hard not to get alarmed
I don't understand much of anything and my head is just spinning
But it's OK actually cos
I don't need to understand it all
I just need to hide under you, that's all
And I will
I mean how does one explain all of this? I am between and betwixt
I am almost beginning to think I am in a dream and this cannot all be real
But it's OK actually cos
I don't need to understand it all
I just need to hold on to your hand, that's all
And I am
For if the set time has indeed come
Then sweet PapaGod, I shall not run, nor shall I fall
I may not grab any of it and my head might be spinning and my
Heart thumping, but it's really OK, you see cos
I am holding on to my dear JC and as long as he is with me
I don't need to understand it all
I just need to let go and let God.
And I shall

Lord, You are Good To Me
My Lord, you are too good to me
It is clear that when you do for me, you don't look at me
If you do, all you see is your son, Jesus Christ
Cos Lord, you are too good to me.
But I am not complaining Papa
I am so grateful for your love that just knows no bounds
It is too good to me.
My Lord, you are too kind to me
It is sure that when you move for me, it is not me you see
Clearly, it is your son, my Saviour you are considering
For after all, he did die to give me plenty
But still it makes me wonder how I could be so blest
I am so amazed by how you do more than I even ask
Way too much for me.
Still, I humbly accept it ALL Papa
Yes, I accept it all with a promise to always live my life for you
Knowing full well that even my lifetime will not cover
The cost of your love.....Cos it is just too much, too good.
To me.

Lord, I Want To Take You More Seriously!
Papa
I have no other source of power but you
You alone are my Counsellor
You alone are my Teacher
You alone are the Light that shines my way
My Enabler
In this wicked, mean world
So please Papa, help me to take you more seriously
You see, this world we are in just seems to spinning out of control
Lord, I don't want to disappear in the midst of its evil spin
Sucked under by the claws of the god of this age
I see the only way to beat him at this evil Russian Roulette
Is to hide myself in you
So please Papa, help me take you more seriously
So I can hear better
See better
Think better
Know better
Than the devil.
So he wont be able to steal my life
My family
My victories
My testimonies
My ministry
Oh, Lord, Please forbid it, help me so he won't steal
My eternity
In Jesus name I ask you
Amen!

I Am On The SeeSaw Again
Father, I need help. Your help. Again.
I know you, I know I can call on you
And trust you. Cos only you can understand
Why I am on the seesaw again.
Why I am up now and down now
Why I smile when my heart weeps
Why my nerves are frayed and my mood swing.....
Why I have no clue what this is so
But You do, cos you know me better than I
Know me and why I am on the see-saw again.
So Lord, I call on you and as I do
I give you thanks in it all, not for it, but in it
Cos I would rather not be on it.
Yes, I hate the seesaw, I hate the ups and downs
But....then again.......I like it cos as I look up
As I try to hold on and maintain my balance
As I hold on tight to the grips, I call on you
And you hear........
And that makes my heart smile......
So, who cares if I am on the see saw again?
My God is with me still
And that is all I need to know.....
The world might be spinning
My moods might be swinging
But my God, he is every cool, ever calm and
Totally collected.

Papa, Take Absolute Control
Dear Lord, I honour your name this evening
I cannot thank you enough for ALL you continue to do in my life
Thanks for your many mercies over me and mine
I am so grateful to you.
Father please, you know that I need you for tomorrow's event
You know that I had no hand in bringing it about.
That's was all you. So Lord, please have mercy on me
And finish what you have started concerning this book reading
First and foremost, bring everyone to the venue safe and take them home safe
Because I am in the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus, I use myself
as a point of contact for every guest. We shall be safe in Jesus name.
Lord, let all the preparations and the arrangements from the most banal
To the most significant glorify your name.
Let the readings you have led me to choose 'speak to people'
Let there be laughter, let there be joy, and please Lord,
Let there be love.
Lord, all I am saying really is come and
Take ABSOLUTE CONTROL and let your glory fill that place
I pray to you Lord, in Jesus Christ's name
Amen!
