Thank you Ma'am ❤️🥰 @diademscommunity E-Bo Thank you Ma'am ❤️🥰 @diademscommunity E-Book available on Okadabooks, Bambooks and Amazon Kindle Hardcopies (Book 1&2) available @sepherbooks Reposted from @diademscommunity It's not bookish Wednesday but it's faith Sunday, so it's a good day to review this Christian Romance Novel. Now you know where it pinches by @topeomotoshowrites This is a sequel to the book With these shoes I thee wed. It's a continuation of Toke, Mayowa and Jadesola's stories. As is usual with @topeomotoshowrites books, the spiritual lessons are outstanding. Toke's story stood out for me because her struggles are common to many women. Waiting for the fulfilment of God's promises can sometimes be a bumpy ride. Also, trying to figure out your identity in a marriage and struggling to align with your partner's vision when the unexpected comes up is a major cause of rancor in marriages. Now you know where it pinches reminds us that even marriages centred on God's will has it ups and downs but in all things you must learn to rest in God and always remember you are a team. Two are better than one; because they have a good reward for their labour. For if they fall, the one will lift up his fellow ... And if one prevail against him, two shall withstand him; and a threefold cord is not quickly broken. Ecclesiastes 4: 9-12 Whether married or single, we all have desires and many of them are valid. We have milestones we want to achieve within certain timelines but we must learn to rest in God; you know, learn the unforced rhythms of grace. God always comes through. I enjoyed reading this and even though the part of Jadesola's legal brouhaha came off a tad sensational, I love that it was well researched. If you love Christian Romance Novels, you should read this. #faithsundays #sundaylessons #diademscommunity #topeomotoshowrites #christiannovels #christianromance
I don't think I can ever forget the day I gave my I don't think I can ever forget the day I gave my life to Christ. Same way I don't think I'll ever stop talking about the life-changing experience and awe-inspiring moment when I got a deeper understanding of God's love which led to me writing #onceuponafirstlove (It doesn't mean I don't struggle with insecurities and self-doubt from time to time.) . . I constantly have to keep alive my relationship with God and keep cultivating it. Remind myself that I can be vulnerable with God, exposing myself to His scrutiny and summoning the courage to see my true self and those parts of me that's not of Him and needs to be purged out. He wants to know me and my weaknesses. He loves it when I can trust Him with my heart. . . These days I have enjoyed the sweet romance of sitting at His feet and just talking to Him about any and everything. Listening to His words of comfort and encouragement. Chastisement and gut-wrenching truth. Journaling my thoughts and feelings. . . God's love is sweeter than honey🍯. His love is over and beyond. Simple to understand but still indescribable. You see, when you realise God loves you... Everything you do for Him comes alive with deeper meaning. Your speech, your behaviour, your work for Him, is constantly being worked on to make you more like Christ. Your relationship with God comes alive with a deeper meaning when you have a glimpse of His love for you. . . Even in the Message version, the Psalmist called God's love exquisite. . How exquisite your love, O God! How eager we are to run under your wings, Psalm 36:7‭MSG . . Focus on God's love for you. Let Him be first in your life. You may be discouraged at how things are going right now, (I encourage you to tell Him about it) but know His plans and purposes for those who love Him. 💞💞💞 #growingingodslove #journaling #growinginchristtogether
Thank you ma 🙏❤️❤️❤️@rovingbookworm Thank you ma 🙏❤️❤️❤️@rovingbookworm God bless you . . This book is a sequel to a book I read earlier in 2020 titled ‘With These Shoes I thee Wed’ and it was interesting to see some of my favorite characters once again. The story is centered around two main characters and friends, Jadesola and Toke. Jadesola is a successful lawyer, Christian and is ready to tie the knot with Mr. Right when she finds him. With several experiences of dates and relationships that didn’t work out, she decides to take her friend’s advise and try online dating. Surfing through the dating site, she finally meets the man of her dreams but he lives in far away Canada and they are both unsure if this “friendship” will not lead to a dead end. Toke on the other hand is trying to adjust to the new life of being a pastor’s wife while managing her thriving business. This is not the life she thought she would have with Mayowa and her frustrations begin to put a crack in their otherwise loving relationship. This story seamlessly portrays the struggles of a young Christian couple in ministry as they face several challenges and the life of a typical single Christian woman who is waiting for the one. I found this book very interesting and captivating. In the first book, I didn’t really like Jadesola’s character but this book showed her growth as a person and a believer and it was refreshing to read. It was also good to see Toke and Mayowa’s journey as they navigate through married life. As someone who has been married for over 16 years, I could relate to some of what they were going through and I am eager to see how all this will end in the third book. Christian fiction has always been a tricky one for me but I must confess that Tope Omotoso does it so well that I always leave her stories with valuable lessons for myself or others. I really enjoyed reading this book as the writing was very fluid and it kept me hooked.
It's almost a year this book was released and I'm It's almost a year this book was released and I'm grateful to God for the testimonies so far 🙌. Hardcopies available @rovingheights @sepherbooks . . I remembered a few parts from the book (maybe 'cause I'm working on something relating to it😁). You will find out in due time. In the meantime, what are your favourite quotes in the book? . . "...sad as it may be, my pains don't change Him but He changes my pain. He turns my mourning into dancing." “I love to dance. I took ballet classes in school, but didn’t go far with it. Something about standing on your toes and trying to find balance unbalanced me.” "But in this life there’s only one dance partner you need; and that’s God. Let His Words be the music singing over us as we dance through this life." . . So what's yours? 😁 If you haven't read it yet it's available on Amazon Kindle, Bambooks and Okadabooks.
Thank you sis @joannywhite for this beautiful revi Thank you sis @joannywhite for this beautiful review 💓 . The one thing I was hoping for in this book was a deeper exploration of some of my favourite characters from book one and let me tell you that the author did not disappoint me. In my first review, I had already expressed that my favourite character was Mayowa so when I read the blurb of this book and didn't see his name in it, I didn't think he was going to appear much in it. . It was however a pleasant surprise to find out that the book actually has four points of view. I enjoyed this book a lot more as I thought each point of view gave us a greater insight and understanding of the characters' fears, weaknesses and strengths. I loved that we could see the growth of the characters in this book which is a lot more than in the first book. . I loved that the author threw these characters into a whole new world of challenges which stretched their faith and challenged them in more ways than one. It was a very gripping story and once I got into it, I could not put the book down as I just wanted to know what happened next. . I loved that we could see both sides of the coin--a married couple, and someone who was single. I loved how the author explored the marital struggles especially when it comes to ministry. I loved the recurrent theme throughout the book which was dying to ourselves, and learning to surrender to God's will for our lives. I also loved the emphasis on not ruling out endless possibilities, and not limiting the hand of God in the way He works. It was beautiful to see how everything unfolded because for majority of the book, I could not predict what would happen next (which is a good thing). . I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who loves contemporary Christian romance. It doesn't matter if you're married or single. I think the lessons in this book are for everyone. The third book in the series is in the works and to be honest, I can't wait to get my hands on it. . . EBook available on Amazon Kindle, Okadabooks and Bambooks.
