#2024blessings
2024 has been a turbulent year. It has recorded many losses and deaths that are enough to keep one down and sad.
However, Psalms 66 counsels us to count our blessings instead of numbering our losses and to cultivate a heart of thankfulness.
I have counted mine and named them one by one, and I am amazed at what the Lord has done. He packaged each month of the year with unexpected blessings, amidst other visible and invisible ones.
It is a testament of the fact that God’s blessings are new every morning, every day, week and month. From January to December, I counted them thus;
January: Days before my birthday, I received 4 certificates in Management Consulting (CMC, FIMC, CMS, and LGS) on a local and global scale, from the Institute of Management Consultants (IMC) and International Council of Management Consultant Institute (ICMCI) of London Graduate School.
February: My first book was published. Chiboy won a cross-country competition in racing and was awarded and rewarded.
March: I bagged a PhD in Business Management from Prowess University, Delaware, United States of America ๐บ๐ธ
April: My second book was published. The hard copies of the two books were endorsed by the National Library in Lagos.
May: Chizzy’s first poem was chosen for publication by YoungWriters, UK and is available at the British Library and National Archives.
June: RoyalQuest blog started publishing articles for other children. We presently have 29 children whom we have published their poems, novels, christian daily devotionals, motivational quotes and songs.
July: My 3rd book was published and also endorsed by the National Library Lagos. Again, I was given an Ambassadorial Award by GIPEC for Integrity and Positive Influence.
August: Chizzy’s second creative poem made it to the British Library and National Archives.
September: My fourth book was published and hard copies were approved for the National Library, Lagos. The four books are on sale on Amazon KDP and Selar.
October: Kaima and Chizzy won young writers competition organised across schools in the UK and became certified young creative writers and authors. Chizzy’s third poem made it to the British Library and National Archives.
November: Chizzy’s gymnastics skills got her recognition as a record breaker of 29mins, 08 seconds longest straddle headstand.
December: Chizzy was recognized for writing over 100 poems in 6 months.
It is indeed a year of an unmatched educational network of trailblazers. Congratulations were in order from these recognitions, awards and certificates.
You think I do too much? it’s because God is doing excess, far beyond my expectations. I return all the glory to Him, trusting Him for more goodness and mercy come 2025, Amen.
