SEME'S NOOKS

Ok, so on today's conversations, I stumbled on something that has constantly been a reoccurring internet sensation; Push gift or push present. Ha!  Ha ha!!  Ha ha ha!!! First thing first, I just started hearing about the word "Push gifts/push presents" a few years back. In short, the first time I heard about push gift was during my bridal shower when I was getting married in 2014. *now shinning my teeth* I am gradually becoming an elder in the game. Even the Bridal shower was alien to me at that time, as the chief village girl that I am.  *Don't jealous me please*. This has become a common practice everywhere in the world now. ( Or maybe not,  because It is not yet in my village) lol. "Believe it or not, push presents have a long history, even though the idea just became popular in the United States. In the United Kingdom and India, the push present has been around for hundreds of years, possibly even longer. There are some claims that these baby baubles have bee

Hey Tribe! How are you all doing today? Happy New week. This could be your Monday Morning Motivation but I had a very tiring weekend, probably the most tiring weekend in my whole 33 years of existence, and all I want to do this week is to lay in my bed and sleep *rolling my eyes*. Remember sleep used to be my day job until adulthood, and Tana and Tilda happened.  In my tired mood, all I wanted to do after church yesterday was to rest my tired self but I still had to drag myself to attend to the needs of my little humans (Tana and Tilda ) which is usually an endless one by the way.  So, I managed to fix lunch and instructed them to tidy up the house afterward.  Trust Matana (my four years old) to ask, "so what will Mummy be doing?" "Well, Mummy will be sleeping" I replied.  "Why?" she asked "Because I cannot come and go and kill myself picking up toys that I did not play with" "Ahhh! Mummy, does toys kill someone? Because I think..." &qu

We are still in the month of loveeee!!!  I hope you had a nice time celebrating Valentine's day with all the amazing gifts and show of love. and if you did not receive any kind of gift or show of love, not to worry, Jesus got you and His love is all that matters.

Dear Seme Tribe, I pray you to have a sweet Valentine's day and many reasons to grow in all your relationships. For those already married I pray for a new season of bursting into a deeper love relationship with your spouse. I pray your love grows deeper daily and that your spouse LOVES you. I pray that your marriage will be a representation to the world of God's madly in a love relationship with his bride. For those engaged, I pray for direction and resources in planning your big day and starting this new chapter. I pray for blending money, property, extended families, and lives. I pray you take sound marriage counseling advice and it stretches you more into a sacrifice for your spouse to be. May he give you confidence and cast out all fear from your heart. For those in committed relationships awaiting God's direction on the next steps, I pray that He guides you. May He give you clarity, wisdom, and peace, make your path straight to see clearly if this is the person God has

It is my Worship Corner Tribe. Today we are showing our gratitude to God for His love and friendship and for upholding us through the storm.   If you've been through any phase where you thought you wouldn't be able to make it but you came out looking like a bar of refined gold, then this song is for you. "This song speaks about me, my story, my journey, all I have been through, and how far God has brought me over the years. It is my song of gratitude to Him. I am simply saying, for all you have done for me, please accept my thanks" Tim Godfrey. NARA KELE  LYRICS BY TIM GODFREY FT.

 Hey Tribe! How are you all doing? I hope February is treating you well as expected because it is the season of love and I am sure you can feel the love in the air already? Well, if you can't feel the love around you yet, put on your special love glasses, sit still and relax for it will come soon. You already know I've got your back here any day. Meanwhile, being the season, I had wanted us to talk for a while about love. Yes, the kind of love that leaves you speechless and makes you longing for more.  Hey! Hold still, I can already hear your hearts pounding fast from the mention of love. Those of you who are in love be on the right hand side, those out of love be on my left and the ones who are in the "confused" category, hmmm! Move to the back please, while I table your case on the mountain.  Now that we are all seated, let me ask the question; what is love? How do you know you are in love?  Please write down your answers and pass them to the front for marking. No c

 It's Worship Corner Tribe!  Love starts with God. The love of God was demonstrated by the sacrifice of Jesus Christ to make it possible for us to be forgiven and to become children of God. As children of God, we will also be growing in the love of God-loving as God loves. And one way to reciprocate love is to first accept it and then appreciate it. So today we are saying "Imela " in his special February Love song. IMELA LYRICS BY NATHANIEL BASSEY When I think upon Your goodness and Your faithfulness each day I'm convinced it's not because I am worthy to receive the kind of love that You give But I'm grateful for Your mercy and I'm grateful for Your grace And because of how You've poured out your Yourself I have come to sing this song out in praise Imela, Imela Okaka, Onyekeruwa (Great and Might creator of the world) Imela, Imela (Thank You! Thank You!) Eze mo (My King) Who am I to sing Your praises? Who am I to worship You? It's Your blood that ma

 Hey Tribe! This could be your Monday Morning Motivation but first, let me welcome you to a new month. Happy New Month Tribe. I am so glad to have you here with me in this new month of love. Oh yes! February is all about love and I know you know that, but if you don't let me inform you that my four years old daughter has already asked me how I intend to show love to everyone around me? I guess she was talking about Valentine, lol. So you better brace yourself for the season ahead, and hey, no pressure alright.  This month, above all the noise and distraction, I will enjoin you to be deliberate about YOU. The importance of self-love cannot be overemphasized. And no, self-love is not selfishness or pride. The English Dictionary simply put it as "regard for one's own well-being and happiness".  YOU are all that matter.   I want you to be intentional in the things that have to do with you this month, Me first" before anyone else because you can only give what you hav
