Why is God so wicked? Skip to main content

A story of my confused state

  2018, I moved to Ogun state and had to seek employment in a school within my vicinity. As a Lagos teacher, I was used to a vibrant class, swift answers and mushy acts by my students. So I resumed at my new work place with that fully charged energy. The first day got me confused. I was to teach the primary classes, I started my class and it was obvious these children were not following. They could neither understand what I was saying nor did they show any bit of interest. It was then I knew I had to start from the scratch. First, I had to create a connection. I wanted them to understand that I am first their friend. I needed to set the foundation that they can have both a friend and teacher in one. After that, I came down to their level. I made them feel and appreciate every little progress they made. I built up their interest in education. We worked together, applying several strategies I discovered and created, and within some month the growth was evident. Eureka is a book that ...

Why is God so wicked?

#LengthyPost

Today I was thinking about all my years on earth and lessons I've learnt.
I remembered the day I wholeheartedly prayed to for death.
I so wanted to die since I found every second of my stay on earth useless.

Now a thought popped up in my mind " what if God answers all prayers"
That means I would have been long forgotten.

We often ask
"Why didn't God answer my prayers?" "why did He let this happen?"
Is God a wicked God?.
Why does He turn deaf ears sometimes to our pleas

I watched a movie yesterday.
A young man bore bitter feeling of resentment toward God just because he prayed to God to save his father and yet he died.

A priest told him
God is just like our parents.
They love and care for you yet they don't give you everything you ask for.
Not because they don't have it but because they see what you don't see.

I remember as a child I had at one point disliked my parents because I felt they didn't do things my way.
I felt they were being wicked and perhaps hated me.
But today it all makes sense.
All their actions makes sense now.
It was out of love
I was looking at the present, they were seeing my tomorrow.

God sent His only begotten son to die for us.
He didn't hate Jesus.
Even Jesus prayed for the cup to pass over him but God ignored.
Not because He hated Jesus but because He was creating a better tomorrow.

God is our Creator.
God loves you.
God cares about you.
His thought about you is for good.

He didn't answer your prayer for a reason.
It might not make sense to you.
But I tell you today whatever God allows to occur in your life is not by mistake.

You lost that job.
You lost a loved one.
You failed an exam.
You went through pain.
And all these you prayed to God yet He didn't answer.
I know it's difficult to deal with.
I've been there a thousand times and I was in this situation last month😥.

But I tell you if only God would open your eyes to His will for your life, you definitely would understand His love towards you.

You would understand why that prayer wasn't answered.
You will understand why you had to fail that exam.
You will understand a lot you perhaps hate God for now.

I know it is still hard to understand why you had to go through that difficult phase.
But please never doubt God's love towards you.

Trust in Him.
Believe in Him.
Love Him.
Ask for more of Him and less of you for that way you might come to understand certain mysteries regarding your life.

God loves you
God loves you
I don't know who desperately need to hear this.
God loves you more than you can ever imagine.

Please get to know God.
You can't be far from Him and know His plans for you.
Accept God today.
Take out every resentment from your heart and embrace God today.
Accept Him as your Lord and personal saviour.

The grace to love you.
The grace to trust every process.
The grace to hold on and never let go.
The grace to free my heart of all resentment.
Dear Lord.
I need that grace🙏🏽

I have a habit of reading biographies of Christians.
I read about Raquel Jacob, Olayode Juliana(Toyo baby), Mr Cosmos Maduka etc.
These great individuals had a rough start, middle and are still going through some test of faith.

They experienced lots of unanswered prayers.
They lost their loved ones.
They went through worse situations.
But that trusted God.
In all phase they saw God.
Today we celebrate them.
But that's possible because they understood God's plan for them.
And they trusted evey phase.

If you care for Juliana's(Toyo baby) book "Rebirth"

MY TALENT, MY PRIDE( DISCOVER YOURSELF)

Bola,Tayo, Ayo amd Bimpe where very close friends. they are the type of kids every parents would always pray to have. Bola was a very talented singer, she sings like an angel and everyone adores her. Tayo too was a good dancer, he is so flexible that one would wonder if his body where made of foam. Ayo wasn't left out, he was so good with spellings, he could spell words those older than him would find difficult spelling. Bimpe felt like the odd one out,"why am i the one without a talent"she would always say to herself. whenever she went out with her friends for talents audition she would always feel left out because she has nothing to present. she would always cry her eyes out sometimes wishing she was her friends. she envied her friends talents and most times prayed to God to make her a singer, dancer or a good speller. when she saw her prayers have been ignored by God she started attending dance and music classes, she would always go to her friend Ayo to teach ...

HOW I LOST MY JOB

HOW I LOST MY JOB (2016) The company's new managing director called me into his office. MD: Titi I'm very sure you're aware of the financial setback this company is facing and right now all hands ought to be on deck towards restructuring the company. Me: Yes Sir MD: Right now I need people that can get me ten million naira per month through marketing and the way I'm seeing you, you can't befriend those men that can put money into this business. Or can you? Me: No Sir MD: Well, I need those who can go to any length to get me that money. In that case your service is no longer needed here... I couldn't get another job for months until February when I got the teaching job, I was told I'm going to be paid an amount which is my previous salary divided by 3.
