Psalms 73 - 89

VhaaI remember you oh God and I grew faint. Has God forgotten how to be merciful. But I will remember our Lord. (Ps 77)

Not hide God'd decrees but tell them to our children. The nations had forgotten what God had done.  For surely we need to remember what God has done in our lives so we can share it our children and the mistakes that our brothers ad sisters. For God remembered we are but flesh, a passing wind soon forgotten. So the Lord guided them like sheep but still they were rebellious. (Ps 78)

Restore us oh God and shine your face. Revive us so we praise your holy name again. (Ps 80)

If they would just listen to me how quickly I would subdue their enemies and restore them. I guess sometimes we just need to do what God wants and he will delivery us. When in high places we use our own understanding and wisdom to the peril of our people. (Ps 82)

Blessed are those whose strength is in you. I'd rather be a doorkeeper in your house for one day than a 1000 years away from you. For the lord is my dwelling place. (Ps 84)

Listen to my cry for mercy. Teach me your way. Hide me an undivided heart that I may follow you. Give me sign of your goodness. (Ps 87) .

I Will sing of the Lord faithfulness forever. You created the north and the south. Blessed are those who have learned to exalt you and praise. For surely to praise and exalt and fear is learned over time and dedication. For sometimes we think our level of worship is a gift and we might or might not have. But clearly this is a skill that we need to learn and come accustome to. (Ps 89)

Spiritual Intelligence and Leadership

Spiritual Intelligence  is one of the latest buzzwords in the leadership field. It is increasingly recognised that leaders not only need emotional intelligence but also spiritual intelligence. Depending on how we define spiritual leadership, it can be seen as a crucial component of authentic leadership necessary to cope with a dramatically changing world constantly threatened by toxic behaviour. In essence, spiritual intelligence is the quest for better understanding of two key foundation principles of authentic leadership: The inner self : The quest for self-knowledge is a crucial component of inner peace and confidence. Such inner peace is the foundation of authentic behaviour that is not corrupted by compliance with fears, doubts and the corrupted opinion of others. The inner self is a world of self-discovery where the age old question is asked: Who am I? It is the world of seeking after the divine heritage that beats in our souls. The inner self is where we find the c...

Proverbs 1 - The dangers of Foolishness

I was reading this scripture this morning and i couldn't help feeling that I often act like this person. Thinking that I don't have to study my bible and put it into practice is compared to someone laughing at you when trouble comes to your life. It sounds cruel but God's standard was never meant to make us 'feel' good. 26 I also jwill laugh at your calamity; I will mock when kterror strikes you, 27 when terror strikes you like la storm and your calamity comes like a whirlwind, when distress and anguish come upon you. 28 mThen they will call upon me, but I will not answer; they will seek me diligently but will not find me. 29 Because they chated knowledge and ndid not choose the fear of the Lord,

My trip back to Europe in ONE word (Part 1/2) - Coronavirus

It was a normal working day on a hot and usually dusty afternoon in Yaounde when I got the call to come and collect my Visa for my upcoming trip to Italy. I was elated. It had been 17 years since I had last seen my foster aunts and cousins. I was beside myself.  I distinctly remember my trip back to wish my father goodbye and how emotional I was because I knew that somehow I will not see him for a long while. I remember the bus trip back to Yaounde and how surreal it all felt (especially since there was a job interview lined up in Munich).   Me on the bus (in the middle of nowhere) on my way back to Yaounde. Clearly I was too excited to sleep (like someone next to me). I was already missing my lovely Cameroon. On the news, the coronavirus (covid-19) was beginning to show its ugly head in Italy and various other neighbouring countries. My aunt even told me to postpone my trip, but it was too late. I was already packed. Don't mess with a black man and his luggage! Me, mysel...
