The Walk+

The Walk+, previously known as ‘Lahyorz in Christ’, is where christians are inspired to live victoriously and glorify God. Funmi does this by passionately sharing the Word of God that empowers us to make this possible. By also sharing what she continues to learn in her christian walk, Funmi hopes to build you up and encourage you in your walk. Christians who feel defeated by life & boxed in by religion are inspired to live in the freedom of the cross. You do not have to walk alone. Let me inspire you!

A Quote To Encourage You:

Isaiah 43:1b

Do not be afraid, for I have ransomed you. I have called you by name; you are mine.

Mama's Empty Nest

While I muddle through the empty nest stage of life with its changes and emotions, my hope is to encourage my readers through my experiences. Even though my nest is empty, I find my heart is full. More often than not you can find me tapping away on my computer writing words that seem to pour out of my soul or wandering around the countryside with my camera held up to my eye. I'm just an amateur photographer but I absolutely love being behind my camera lens capturing whatever appeals to me. I do strive to use my own photographs to accompany my writing and my hope is that readers enjoy my pictures as much as I do. God imparts His Word to me through everyday occurrences or images and I write often about what He has laid on my heart via thoughts or photos always using scripture as a basis.

A Quote To Encourage You:

Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. ~ Thessalonians 5:16-18
