It’s the end of July people!! Just now now now, seven months have gone like that. In all, I’m just grateful for everything: the good, the bad and the ugly. Now, it’s time to gist. I’ll tell you how my July went and you tell me yours. Ready? Set! Let’s go!!

Listening to: a lot of sermons by some of my favourite Pastors: Michael Todd and Steven Furtick. They’re so full of energy and make their sermons as practical as possible. I’ll definitely recommend them to anyone.

Missing: cake!!! I just need a cake plug that’ll cost me nothing! Is that too much to ask 😭?

Woman crush: Tomike Adeoye (favourite TV girl). She’s a real multitasker and is so original with her content. With all the work load she gets, her smile is just everything. I receive that grace 🙌.

Watching: a lot of videos on content creation tips. Never take a content creator for granted. Their job is not beans.

Irritated by: the sound of my neighbour’s generator. It’s the first house in the street so they could have just placed their generator on the other side. But nooo! It must be by the fence we share, just where my room is. Ughhh!! I try not to blame them since NEPA has been the worst but it still doesn’t change the fact that the generator is a nuisance to me, especially at night.

First time: I broke a coconut and it came out so perfectly. Something I never thought I’d do in my entire life. It was like I could put the pieces back together and they’ll fit. I wished I could just preserve and store it for no reason but to feel good anytime I look at it. Sadly I had to let it go😪 thanks to hungry stomachs.

Reading: ‘Outliers’ by Malcolm Gladwell and ‘Purpose Driven Life’ by Rick Warren. I know I said I’ll try finish Purple Hibiscus but ehh… It’s well. I’m not done with these two books though, but they’re sure good reads.

Lost: two close family friends in one week (consecutive Sundays). It was really scary, I almost started to think it’ll be a trend to lose someone on Sundays but my God does not flop!

Wondering: how four months of staying at home have passed. Just like that. Hmm.

Learning to: trust God more. I lost a lot of faith with the bad news I received but after I stumbled on Job 42:1-6 and Psalm 131, I realized that it’s the best thing I can do for myself. I still have questions but knowing that I don’t have the answers and there’s nothing I can do about it but there’s always this Big Guy who will forever be with me. I’m totally fine.

Wishing: to just relax and be taken care of!!! An all expense paid trip to some place lovely 😭. Please, I love gifts like that in case you want to help my ministry.

Grateful for: life, family, friends, the wins, the losses, the mistakes, the lessons, the love and everything that went down this month. No matter how bad things may seem, there’s always a million reasons to be thankful.

This is it people! You still find lime helpful even if it’s sour, don’t you? I had a rough month but I did learn a lot and that explains the title. Now it’s your turn… I can’t wait to hear how July went for you. I hope it’s better than mine anyway.

Lots of love and lime,
