THE FEARLESS CHALLENGE
Your greatest enemy is the fear that has long
lived with you. Fear is what has held you back
from achieving that dream your heart has
always secretly desired.
The thing about fear is that it impresses upon
your imagination a reality which does not and
might probably never exist. This thing you fear
only materializes when you accept this
imagination as true for as a man thinks so is
he.
Fear is only a PERSPECTIVE driving you away
from your PROSPECTIVES.
Want to live the supernatural life? Then
understand that the first crash course is on
the subject matter of "stepping out of the
boat" - living behind your comfort and familiar
zone.
Soon it will be Saturday the 1st of July 2017. I
challenge you to be FEARLESS for just this
month by doing something noteworthy and
remarkably amazing that you've long been
afraid to do. Something that will change your
address emotionally, mentally, spiritually and
even physically (if need be), from a state of no
joy to a place of joy unspeakable.
As a prophet of God I know that prophecies
directed to persons and institutions won't
matter much if the people involved won't take
up responsibility. I again challenge you to pick
your courage from wherever you left it and
move on towards that dream of yours.
Will you accept this challenge? If you will,
share this post and write I ACCEPT THE
FEARLESS CHALLENGE

UNCERTAINTIES
It's the punch you do not see coming that
knocks you down
It's the sad news you never were expecting
that causes you frown
It's the people you once trusted that give you
away with a kiss
It's the folks that once looked down on you
that'll someday to you say please
Uncertainties!!!
Life is full of them
One can but find gravity
When existence is staked on divinity
Should an unpleasant saga befall the ears today
As thou art beseeched, watch and pray
Again I say...
Its the punch you do not see coming that
knocks you down
But at the end we still are more than
conquerors
Watch and pray lest you give up to
uncertainties.

TO YOU MY FRIEND
I understand those times when what you wanna
hear is not someone telling you that your dp is
nice
I understand those times when what you wanna
hear is not someone dumping on you some
scriptural lines
As though, you among those that have now
backslide
I understand those times when what you wanna
hear is not someone telling you how your
dress looks nice
I understand those when when all you want to
hear is someone saying to you am with at all
times
Life can be crude and tough sometimes
Singing you some songs to which you can't
dance
You might even try to form and act alright
But when everyone is gone you are depressed
at night
It has bordered you for long what seems to be
wrong
You've crossed all the T's and all the I's have
dots
But you still can't fathom why you are missing
out on joy
I do not have all the answers, I wish do
But I have observed a pattern that's so true
That just when you think you are beaten and
abandoned
Then God steps in to shower on you much
comfort
But why should he wait till am at my wit's
end?
Again I wish I have the answers my friend
On this however I beseech you rest
That his love is with you in all your years
If wanna cry, cry but this you should know
That your God and saviour has never left his
throne.

It's time...
There's a Chinese proverb that says women
hold up a part of the sky
How could that be a lie haven met your kind
One can only imagine how a blessing you've
been to many lives
The many times you stood to wipe tears from
many eyes
With the glorious charm you beam forth when
you smile
And the wealth of God's wisdom saturated in
your mind
When told to rest for a while
You ask how can I? seeing another soul seeks
my time
Your simplicity could pass for that of child
But your heart like a mother's is so large and
your demeanor like a true queen I rate so high
Let him that have ears hear what the writer
saith
That it's time...
It's time to Celebrate that mother, sister, aunt
or friend that has made great our lives
I celebrate you... Keep making a difference

It's about you
What would my last message be about?
What would my last poem be about?
What would my last song be about?
What would my last prayer be about?
What would my last script be about?
It would be about God's love for you
I will tell you how that you need not beat
yourself too much over yesterday
I will preach about the need to love others and
remember to do good
I will sing about your wonderful virtues that
God has deposited in you
I will write about how so desire to see you
grow and become your best.
Remember not everyone you've met will speak
well of you but the majority will tell of your
awesomeness
Celebrate yourself
I celebrate You.
I hope you get this message cause I speak
about you.

Dear Reader (2)
The rose has not ceased to bloom
Winter will always be upon us
Would not the sun always see the moon?
And God have us fill his thoughts
These all continue in an endless spiral
Nothing stopping their formidable flow
Likewise when we look at your joy
We see the very thing we always know
That nothing stops you...
Nothing stops your free spirit
Nothing stops your warmth
Nothing stops you from saying to the sister
deprived of joy, be of good cheer
Or to aged who's strengths needs help saying
to such, "am here"
You are
that tornado that cannot be stopped
The fire that cannot be quenched
The wind that cannot be questioned
The lion/lioness that cannot be reprimanded
Here's a toast to your strengths
Here's a toast to your gifts
Here's a toast saying of the many seen
By the eyes and by the ears
You, stand in an excellence to which none can
show prejudice.
Let all sing the Hallelujah song
For to our world belongs such a person as
awesome as YOU
From me

PICK UP THE PHONE
She calls you ceaselessly but you hardly pick
You never knew what words she had to speak
Because you assumed she calling again to say
hi good evening
Unknown to you that was her last attempt in
calling thee
When your madness ends and you someday
return her call to again speak
If another picks
Don't bother asking where she is
For her HEART has gone to a place the two of
you can no more speak nor see
You've just been served a quit notice
Learn thy lesson
And treat the next that grace allows you find
with dignity.

Here's a letter to tomorrow...
Hello tomorrow,
We've probably never met, but I have been
well informed about you to the extent I could
write you like we've being buddies for so long.
No need for much pleasantries save a few hi's
and "hey! How are doing?" kind of thing cause
I just wanna skip right to it.
Very soon someone will be meeting with you
and I'd love for you treat this person with the
utmost care and respect.
This person is determined, a go getter and the
dreamer kind, so don't be taken aback by the
demands this person would place on you.
This person's wit, grit and tenacity would wow
you - just a heads up so you don't get carried
away.
Be merciful to this person's mistakes and
afford a lot of second chances so that this
person can have swift sail through your
terrain.
It was also brought to my notice that you, like
today, gives just 24 hours. I will therefore like
for you to arrange meaningful people and
events for this person to make the most of the
time.
Other things you will need to know will be told
you by this person for this person is matured
enough to speak the intentions of the heart.
I should be meeting with you soon but till then
take care of this person am sending to you.
O, forgive my manners, this person name
which I should have told you from the
beginning is THE READER OF THIS POST.
And one more thing Tomorrow is that this
person is so amazing... Don't say I told you so.

Yours from today

Duru Franklin I.

SHE'S JUST BEING A WOMAN
She's just being a woman
Having many clothes and still confused about
which one goes with a shoe or a bag for a
show
Its her best friend wedding day and so happy
she is for her friend but when every one is
gone she is caught up with either of these
thoughts :
When will it be my own day and
How will my own day look like?
She tells you I'll be there in five minutes but
shows up in forty five
She wants to go wild sometimes but if single
she thinks of the need of projecting the right
image to her suitors and if married she calms
down for her kids and husbands sake
She uses makeup but still wondering whether
it's doctrinally right or wrong but she
sometimes tells her self grace is enough and so
is her joy steadied
She has a guy she confides in who sometimes
helps in saying yes or no to all suitors that
come her way
She sometimes want to prove to you that what
you can do she also can just to show you she's
not so much of a weaker vessel
She sometimes doesn't even know what she
wants...
You said it's over and she acts tough like it's
all behind her but in her heart she still desires
you back
She doesn't always like the company of many
girls, loves to hang out with the guys
sometimes
She hardly forgets the first impression...
She believes and even preaches the need to
forgive and forget but when it's her turn, it's
like the journey to calvary
She will support beyond measure what she
believes in even if she does not totally
understand it
Her jealousy is proof of her love just as it is
her creator
At the end all she really wants is to be happy,
free and live a life full of adventure
When you see her exhibit any of this or more
just know she was just being a woman that she
is
And you are just being a man when you love
her for just being a woman

GOD KNOWS YOUR LOCATION
Before reading this article I will love you to
look at the photo attached to this post. That's
a satellite view of the earth and you could see
Africa and Nigeria well displayed on it. If you
look more closely you'll see a blue dot
somewhere around eastern Nigeria. Well that
blue dot was my location at the time of this
writing.
How was I able to do that? Well Google Earth
of course. The software was able to pin point
my exact location using my phone. However,
while the software was able to tell my location
geographically, it could not tell my location
spiritually, mentally, financially and
emotionally. It could not tell my location as it
relates to my relationships. It could not tell
many things about me.
But the God that created me can tell where I
am with the issues of my life. He could tell my
location maritally, financially. He can tell
where am at in my fight against sin, sickness,
depression and poverty. And not only does he
know my current location he also knows my
future location and can give me the directions
to get to it.
Beloved, I'd love you to know that God knows
where you are right now in all the areas of
your life and He alone can lead you to the
place he has planned for you. All He ask of you
is trust Him some more. He said call upon me
and I will show you great and mighty things
you do not know.

Duru Franklin I.
