Hello, welcome to my Blog!


My name is Tomi. I am a 23 year old South Londoner. I am excited you are here!!

Get to know me a little bit more and find out why I began this blog.

Why did I create a blog?

I created this blog because I hope to share with you how I have found Peace, Happiness, Joy, and Serenity through God's Word. I hope you enjoy my posts. Please go ahead and Subscribe, Share and tell your friends and families so that they may also know how Amazing, Awesome and Great God truly is!

About this blog:

The purpose of this blog is to share daily encouragement, motivation, and empowerment, using the word of God. God's word cannot only be used for healing, reflection, prayer. Not only during difficult times; it is the means by which we, God's Children, encounter Him; to get to know Him, enjoy Him, His divinity and His glory. These are some things that will be discussed in this blog. If you are intrigued, please do keep reading.

Why 'Let Your Light Shine'?

You are probably wondering why the title of this blog is 'Let Your Light Shine'. This title comes from Matthew 5:14-16 (NLV) and in it reads, 14 "You are the light of the world. You cannot hide a city that is on a mountain. 15 Men do not light a lamp and put it under a basket. They put it on a table so it gives light to all in the house. 16 Let your light shine in front of men. Then they will see the good things you do and will honour your Father Who is in heaven".

To me, this passage says that I am a light of this world that cannot be hidden. I am 'LIT' in God and nothing and nobody can ever dim my light or put me out because I have been made to shine, to be LIT by God!

Try it again... Try it With ME!

So many of us have attempted to do so many things ourselves but we have failed. The reason you failed when you attempted that thing is that you attempted it on your own. You didn't Consult or Discuss it with God first. You went along and did it by yourself, thinking that you could do it and achieve it by yourself, but you couldn't and Failed! This is where you successfully played yourself. Think of it like this. Making decisions without God in the centre or consulting Him for His help Support and Guidance are almost like speeding in a car without a seatbelt, at 170mph. Yes, you will get an exhilarating feeling, but you will eventually crash and realise that it was both silly and stupid to think that being in a speeding car without a seatbelt was safe, sensible, and the right thing to do. God wants you to take the back seat ! Let Him reveal to you His Amazing plans for your life. God is Greater than our plans. He is Greater than the decisions we make. He is Greater and G...

Giving! How Do You Give? Is it in your heart to give willingly?

When giving to others; whether it is your money, time or things which have sentimental value to you, how do you give this to others?  How do you feel towards giving and how do you feel when you give willingly? Remember this: In everything I did, I showed you that by this kind of hard work we must help the weak, remembering the words the Lord Jesus himself said:  ‘It is more blessed to give than to receive.’  ” (Acts 20:35) (NIV). Is it in your heart to give willingly? God Gives! So we must be Givers . Psalms 32:21 says "... the righteous give generously". (NIV). When we give, our giving must stem from God's unfailing Love. The most well-known passage reads, For God so loved  the world that he gave  his one and only Son..." (John 3: 16) (NIV). God sent to earth his 'One and Only Son'! This passage holds such an importance about how God Gave! God is generous and He wants us to learn to be generous and Give, to be more like Him. Giving requires having F...

Bad Company Corrupts Good Character!

Yes, there is a need to avoid Bad Company. 1 Corinthians 15: 33 says this " Do not be misled:  “Bad company corrupts good character.” (NIV). Do your friends corrupt your morals? Do you allow your friends to corrupt your morals?  It is important to choose wisely who you allow to influence you. We are humans and are easily corrupted by the company we keep. We need to prevent others bad influences from causing us to become a bad influence on ourselves and others.  Friends can either help us or harm us. Only You can choose the company you keep! God made the statement in His Word, the Bible, which proclaims " Do not be misled:  “Bad company corrupts good character.”  (NIV). This statement reminds us that we are a building board for Jesus and we must not Waiver and stumble off the path that God has set for us. Bad company can have a great influence on our walk with God. It can trick us into thinking that we can keep the wrong type of company and continue o...
