Now this is a backtrack of Saturday's event.
I attended women for Africa award as a Press for my Fashion Magazine and at this event were so many African women, very beautiful with so many gorgeous designs.
One of the attendees who is also the President of this organisation (Women 4 Africa), a Nigerian Celebrity: Stella Damasus. She enlightened everyone about the abuse of women in Africa with case studies. This got me thinking, African women are abused on a daily basis. Some were abused when they were little, others as teenagers and some while married. It has become a big issue around the world, most especially in Africa were there is no one to fight for them. We must all try our best in every way possible to help these women. I have started playing my part, and I implore you to start too.. no matter how little, one day we will be heard and domestic violence will cease.

This is something I've always admired, desperately wanted and prayed for. Following a sermon at church about a month or two ago, I prayed fervently for it.
I woke up this morning excited about life, because I got to learn that each day God gives us life is a gift and when he chooses to take it, we should thank God for it, because life itself is a struggle.
As I prepare to round up studying and everything relating to Academics at the moment, I get scared but something triggered: God's wisdom. It doesn't come cheap and when it comes, it includes all in one.
I thought of something to write on my blog today, not this... The blog that includes my articles (Emerald's Notebook). I noticed when I just write off my head, it doesn't come out as good as when I am led my HIS mighty hand. I finally found one of my previously written articles and I added just a little to it. I thank God for using me in people's life even as he speaks to me through the poems, novels and plays.

For every little gift, NEVER fail to PRAISE GOD.

I know it's been a while i wrote on here. I've been busy trying to finish up with Uni. Please don't forget to check out my other journal that has all my poems and novels.
I'll be keeping you up to date about my personal life n journey to heaven. It's a tough one but i ain't gonna be an ex-soldier because God said i'm gonna make it! Yes he did!
Okay. I'm i missing something? Yeah.. Coming up next would be the story of the youth camp i attended. Stay logged on and don't forget www.emeraldogzz.com

Sitting back, staring curiously at thosemassive screens,

Those on screens, doing their job

And me having fun

The environment all cheerful,

It is a mini display of the Bible‘s Sodom & Gomorrah,

To the world it’s fun but to God it’s sin

Do I sit back or leave?

I love my friends so dearly,

“it is just a time to chill out; just a drink”

Walking into the house of drinks; the pub by name

Placing an order, not sinful or leading to sin

On my way out I see those I’m gradually leading

Bring along with me through this road of eternity

Do I cause them to derail or do I keep them on this path?

Sitting at home, a big massive sheet of paper,

Looking through different hairstyles, clothes and more

Will it lead me closer to Christ or keep me farther from Christ?

Flipping through hundreds of pages,

The story line so indulging, captivating and mind blowing

Wishing I had such a story

Does it get my heart to think pure or the way of the world?

For everything done, there is a checkpoint

Is it Wordly or Godly?

He made it perfectly,
created in him,
a likeness and example of us and him
to be honoured,
in purity,
of heart, mind and soul
keeping ourselves for that perfect one,
that perfect moment he has designed for us
to truly say and stand by the word "I do"
He has designed it for us to cherish every moment,
with that perfect person,
to share, love, respect and pray together
it is most beautiful when he designs this life
it is most beautiful with only God
He is the author of true romance, not Hollywood
And for this Lord, I'll wait.
