Romans 8 inspires us, reminding us that without God, we fall prey to fulfilling the desires of the flesh.
Our continual connection with God cultivates a fruitful life, glorifying Him as we become conduits of His divine will.

In her 5th blog post, Lelo delves into the concept of love inspired by the Holy Spirit.
Drawing insights from scripture, notably 1 Corinthians 13, she comprehends love as a patient, kind, selfless, and forgiving force, not characterised by pride, jealousy, or rudeness.
Her reflections help her realise that love, rather than hurt or control, should guide our actions and should be manifest in all our relationships.
To achieve this, she insists on the need for self-discipline under the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
Can we do it alone?
The blog post reflects on the importance of collaboration drawn from the author’s personal experience running Atusaye Boutique.

Chosen
Identity plays a critical role in shaping our beliefs, actions, and outcomes.
Many people, however, struggle with misconceptions about themselves, often succumbing to societal labels, and hence live unfulfilled lives.
Understanding our identity from God’s perspective, who views us positively and consistently, can bring about a profound shift in our self-perception and decision-making.
Adopting this Kingdom Principle involves immersing ourselves in scripture, believing in God’s promises, and reassessing our identity through Him.
Don’t be hard on you
Grace, as defined by the Bible, is God’s gift, seeing us for who we are, not our deeds.
However, it’s often misconstrued as a ticket to evade consequences of actions.
The writer’s personal journey highlights how prioritising productivity over self-care eroded their sense of self-worth, challenging their faith.
Grace is experienced through believing in Jesus Christ; it can’t be earned but must be received.
Not extending grace to ourselves can denote feelings of unworthiness or exhaustion. Grace is accepting our limitations, practising rest, and allowing mistakes. It reminds us our worth isn’t tied to our productivity but to God.
