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!

"They were to look for God... and find Him because He is not far from each one of us. It is in Him that we live and move and keep on living". Acts 17:27 (NLV).

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...

God's Love!

God's love is Deep, High, Wide and Long! It holds such greatness that it cannot be fully understood! Ephesians 3: 18-19 says, 18   " And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is.   19  May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God". (NLT) Think about the way you love others. Do you love some and not love others? Is your love selective? Is it wide? Does it stretch out to those you do not know? Do you love those who have done you wrong? Read  Matthew 5: 44   God's love is one that extends, stretches and spreads across the whole world. It includes everyone and everything that He created. God created the world; He made us in His own image (Genesis 1: 27) and He loves us. God's  love for you is unconditional! Whether you like it or not, or want to...
