The Words Of An Obaahemaa

About me Suddenly, the lights went off And it got me thinking. It felt as though that's The way my life had become One moment there's light Then in less than a second It's gone. It felt like I had lost everything, And all hope was lost. You seem to be missing When I needed you the most. The times when my heart hurts The times when the pain is unbearable The times when life burns and taste So bitter. There's so much anger in me And I've no idea on how to let it out, But I need to. I need to, in order to move on And live. I know it's the fault of no one. I'm really hurt and bleeding. I may seem so tough But as human as I am I've got a soft spot. I won’t call it a weakness. Forgiveness is an easy task But forgetting is something else. What is forgiveness without Forgetting? Forgiving you was so divine And not for any other reason. Sometimes I wonder Who am I? And what happened to the ot...

Just a Thin Layer of Coating.        We never wake up one morning With an expectancy of the Occurrence of  certain events. Some of these  leave us with A smile on our faces, Others with tears running down our cheeks. Sadness, a stranger whenever It arrives in our lives, Is a feeling Not so new to us. There's so much pain in our hearts But we know the pain won’t Last so long, For joy come with our morning. And our morning is just A second away from our night. We receive healing of All our hurts and pain From the Most High God ---Our Almighty Father Who sees and watches Over us always. Sadness is just a thin layer Of coating Over our happiness. And our happiness is just A disguise over our joy. Our real joy is that everlasting Feeling , from God,that mere Utterance of words Can't explain.         ...

One day at a time , The one day a year is here. A special day in everyone's lives But differs from a person  To the other. A day filled with joy And of memories that are longed To be lived again- For some people. A day that brings back All the hurts and pain Reminding a person of The past that is wished to be forgotten- To others. In order to enjoy life To the fullest, It's best to live it One day at a time As though it was your last day On earth, And the transition step To the beginning of your life In eternity.

The Love of my Life I'm far more precious than the way I'm treated My father kept reminding me of How unique I was How there was no one like me I never believed that I was stuck with the lies I told myself Life, I thought, was so unfair to me I stayed up all night Thinking to myself I had had enough of this life And it was time to do something About it What I never knew till this moment Was how everything I went or was going through Was just a path leading to my destination How I was been drawn nearer to my time To my victory To my breakthrough To my power To my success To the harvest time of God's promise In my life For all these years I've been my own enemy I kept dragging myself deeper into the muddy stream But this day, My Lord,My God Has opened my eyes to see The real stuff I was made of I am more than a conqueror! I am God's favorite child! I am a royal! I am blessed and highly favoured! ...

The Distance I thought I had you I always knew you were by my side I never realized how distant You had become from me How the foundation of our friendship Had weakened How did it all happen? What's the cause? Did I move first or You did? I've always leaned on you You're filled with Great Wisdom You gave a different  definition  to my life Transforming me wholly You made me Me You granted me the highest Protection  from my foes And fought all my battles You've shown me the love I'll never ever get from anyone Even during our temporary separation I shared my hurts and pain With you You listened You said I never bothered you With my numerous problems So Now Why the distance? Who moved first? You or I ? I think I did! Please take me back Hold nothing against me Forgive me I'm back for real Never will I depart from you But I need your help To stay- Forever.

Stand-by "Honey, I need this", "Sweetie, can you get me that?",  "Darling, could you please accompany me here?" "Sugar, you are so wonderful" Every minute, every second, Honey this! Darling, that! Ooh, oh, so when do I get to be the 'friend', I'm always standing in for someone, I'm always a stand-by. When the 'friend' hurts or betrays her, That's when I become of some importance, That's when I'm seen as a 'friend', A 'friend' for a second. Once the problem is solved, Our friendship goes back as old, And I go back to being the stand-by. I'm always cleaning up another's mess, Nursing the wounds inflicted by another. I'm almost hurt But thanks to God For being the best friend I could ever have, For giving me friends  To erase all this hurt, Friends to treat me as 'friend'. I'll always be a comforter To a soul that needs...

They Think They are always correct in their judgment They think! They always keep permanent perception of you, Spreading that perception to the world, Creating either lovers or haters for you. They have the ability to attract the majority Or the minority for or against you. They can sometime be destiny killers or destiny boosters. They can bring family and friends closer Or can even turn them away. People like this come our way during our journey through life To keep us on track, So never be scared or get frightened, When they come around. Always portray to those around you The true you, the perfect image of God. How you fall does not matter But how you gather the efforts to pick yourself And move on Is what matters. Never be overexcited or discouraged When A perception is created Because A perception can be deceptive Either A good or a bad one © Annie Ann's Series

As humans, we don't know where we'll need the help of someone. It's our obligation as individuals existing in a society to treat other individuals as 'humans' and not as 'things'. We got to know everyone has blood running through their veins and are full of senses. Even if they may lack any of their five senses, they are still sensitive to emotions. There are different people found everywhere on the surface of this earth. Every individual is unique in his own way. You can't judge anyone with your own ideas or views, before you can a step forward to talk about someone, take 'steps' backwards then check your life to see if you are 'fit' to talk about this individual. Check to see if your life is worth more this individual you want to talk about. And don't forget you can't value someone based on your standards but by God's standards.

The Greatest Love I told myself, 'finally I've found What I was looking for' But then I was wrong I was searching for the right thing In the wrong places My heart bleeds My body responds to this bleeding I woke up this day with so much belief In myself In my ability to change things Around me But I failed I turned to a place I knew I could find what I was looking for But there was nothing there I felt a touch in my life A warm touch that suddenly Change everything in my life There was light in my life My path was clear and straight My heart stopped bleeding I was full was of joy and peace That words cant describe Then the sweetest voice in the world A voice that was familiar but was the first time I was hearing it said to me 'My dearest always know I LOVE YOU I'll offer you what the world can never give you All I need you to do is to Invite me into your life And give me your whole being The love shown...

What I wanted I’ve realized I can’t always have What I wanted, But always had what I needed. I always wanted friends But I always had the friends I needed. They’re always there to comfort me, They get to study and know me As they have to. They understand my actions And correct me when I’m wrong. There are times where; There’s shedding of tears, There’s holding of hands Assuring ourselves we’re always There for each other; There’s great laughter and joy. They know we’re are not perfect But have the ability Of becoming so. We understand each other Whether in pain or sadness And joy or happiness. We’ve always got each other’s Back covered. We stand in the gap for each other And remember to always Say a word of prayer. I’m happy to always have What I needed. Even though I never get what I wanted.

No ‘Friend’ Always thought I had a friend, But I just realized it’s always Been just a dream. I’ve been dreaming all this while! I thought this one was going to be real, Was going to be different Was going to be understanding Was going to be … oh my God! I’ve been fooled, I fooled myself into Believing I was finally going to be happy. Now I’m all alone;friendless. It’s heartbreaking It’s kills to know a friend Cant be called a friend no more. So this how Christ feels Whenever he reaches out to us But we respond with our backs turned at him. You only understand this hurt and pain When you go through this experience Not only experiencing it. But He keeps loving us Never giving up No matter the circumstance. I’d still love ‘friend’ I’ve always dreamt of.

Facts of Nature I don’t know that but It’s not breaking up, It’s juust staying away From you. I llove you The way I always do. My love for you has not change And I don’t think it’ll ever change. It’s a matter of the period of time In which we are now. It’s not understandable Neither is explainable. Our friendship holds But no more as before. The fire is partially quenched And can’t be rekindled. Even if it is, not as it used to be Before- Anymore. It’s now time we find our ways, Find the places we belong, We don’t belong together And can’t force to be Because it’s a fact of nature. It hurts it has to be This way but Who know the future, Maybe we’ll meet again But always knows I still love you and Will never stop loving you.

My love became my hate I woke this day only to be in the face How much of a fool I’ve been all this while Trusting a ‘man’. Is any ‘man’ worth my love? Love can only hurt when Material things is what is desired And it’s shown on the wrong person. True love never hurts. No matter the trouble, No matter the circumstance. Love is perfect. I allowed myself to be fooled By the tongue of a ‘man’. He appeared as an angel Only to be revealed as the devil himself- In human form. He found a place in my heart, Made me almost lose my stand. He’s a perfect definition for ‘opportunist’. This is pure wickedness To let a heart love you Only for you to drop and crush it. All hope not lost With God ever present, Love will never runs out. He mends and repairs The broken spirit and crushed heart; And returns the smile to the face Of this pitiful soul. This will be my forever reminder To learn to love a ‘man’ The way he deserves only- Ne...

My Father Before I can into existence God had everything planned out He decided to give me a Father An earthly Father The one who was going to be Physically part of my life Availing himself to be used as a vessel By God, My Heavenly Father To teach me To lead To correct me To pick me up when I am down To care for me To share with me in my times of joy and need To love Love which is a foundation of the world God is love When I was a little child He taught me How to communicate with My Heavenly Father He stood by my side when I opened My mouth to say a prayer He said, " begin by saying, My Heavenly Father" He helped me to understand that The most important man in my life is God He didn't take the praises for himself When he could Today  God knowing how great the responsibilities He gave my father Has granted me an opportunity By allowing me and also my father see this day To appreciate him To give him a...

Good morning , my dear The rising bright yellow morning sun Seems to say with a broad smile Of bright shining light The warmth of its breath Provides the perfect atmosphere To start my morning It's the right atmosphere to say Good morning to my Heavenly Father, Who sits upon His throne above- In Heaven. The joy of this morning is as fresh as ever, Chasing away all troubles and worries. This is a new day with a new beginning And a new end. A day that comes with a fresh anointing And more lovely experience of His presence. His power is fully revealed in this moment Of His awesome presence. The leaves are as green as they are in spring. The branches of the tree support the leaves to Dance gracefully to the rhythm of nature's breath- The cool morning breeze. This is their way of showing thankfulness to Our creator. The birds can't hide their gratefulness. The make the sweetest melodies ever heard Filing the ambience with more joy And love...

Being a child is not just only when you are of a lower age. Some adults are actually kids, their actions are so childish yet they posed for the world around them to see them as a matured. Even a child born in this age would not like to behave the way them do. They compete for things that are of no use. Those they see as their competitors are not even aware they in a competition. They always try to impress those around  only to be making fools of themselves. You see, if you feel you know so much, you happen to know nothing. Even the basic things you do not know. Let me tell you something; MONEY is nothing. Money can't buy you eternal life, never ending happiness and your life. Money can be everything but nothing as well if you do not have Christ Jesus.

 Life is full of so many ups and downs.When you are up, don't think you on top of the world and start looking down on those around you. When you are down, don't think you are worthless than those around you and let them look down on you. Your tomorrow may never be the same as your yesterday or even your today.
