The bible says our latter shall be greater than our past and I surely have tasted of that 🙂. Something very profound, generous and overlooked about our God is that •as humans even in denial to His glory He had always been gifting us with strength and it is even more real and glorious to have that strength when we acknowledge Him for who He is and what He does• 🙏.
I want for us to to break a cycle today. I want to destroy and crack open a seed of lies today – I want to talk about something infamous REJECTION ! I want to talk about 🎉REJECTION REJECTION 🎉 !

Hey hey everybody I am Cïey Dada and I am back with yet another art on the art of script behind the piece on your screens and boy oh boy did I grow from this piece and am extra super duper excited to have you in on this knowledge that brought me super growth ! SHALL WE …

The dictionary definition of rejection clearly reads as : *the act of not accepting, believing or considering someone or something*
You know it is amazing how society accepts the unacceptable and clothes it to become acceptable through lies and sin. Today I want to try something totally different that even I am growing from. Shall we call out moments life dearly dealt with us through rejection … feels like salt upon a wound I know 😪. For me rejection started by being born and raised in a home where my parents had no more love left in their hourglass figure of love, and being an early toddler I never understood the damages that this reality caused me and just how deep these damages cut me and sinked into me and made me vulnerable to many harm points. I grew up a bubbly, outspoken and extra intelligent young girl as well yet what absolutely nobody knew is that *I WAS ALWAYS LONELY*. So as lovely as I was with everyone else yet with myself it was a sad and lonely life.

I was fortunate to separate from my parents eventually to move to a total foreign country with a total stranger to now go and stay with my dad’s younger brother – now this was the only man that made me know what having company felt like, what being loved felt like and what having a parent meant to a child. My dad is probably the most biggest introvert I know so far and my mom has a hype character so their marriage spoiling and already at a point of separation I don’t even recall one moment of us 3 sitting together and catching up. I have 2 elder brothers and I am the only girl , third and last born of 3. My elder brothers are amazing souls😍 yet reserved 😓 and growing up halfway across the continent we do not know exactly how to react around each other … There is more finer detail but Christ has set me free from all that pain so it is arghhhh to mention.

From my not so short story above I am sure you can grasp where and at which point rejection found place in my life and heart. This lonely reality turned me into a slight reserved person that grasped well in my mid and final teenage years. Rejection became a norm for me as I had opportunities I applied for not birthing results I expected. Let’s quickly rewind back to a time in high school when I had my first bf and 3 weeks later called it quits because relationships were not my thing and also I wasn’t in reality assured that I could be loved because I believed more in being rejected than being loved and valued – the clown later told me that he only put up with me to prove and win a bet to his friends that I am easy to hook like any other girl – again I found rejection but chose to bottle it up and move on while my rejection files piled up within me. I tried dating again and this was Jess whose story I shared already in one of my beginning posts called *”Closure”* ( please check it out and leave a comment 😍) . I again filed this rejection and smiled whilst deep in hurt.

Fast forward a bit >>> constantly piling up my rejection occurrences I forgot how to genuinely be happy again.. so much so I forgot how to love myself again but yet again no one could tell what a sad person I was because I was constantly smiling – I was so sad that I couldn’t even identify a deposit of love if it were to fall on my lap or in my hands. Life is truly unpredictable and believe it or not *we are a generation full of lovely , empty and sad individuals with so many happy pictures that create and tell a story filled with fantasies to draw away attention from the unpleasant realities brought along by sin*! (carefully read that again).

*DO NOT MISS THE MIRACLES OF TODAY BECAUSE YOU WERE TOO BUSY LIVING IN TOMORROW – START FIGHTING, LEARNING AND TRYING TODAY SO THAT TOMORROW YOU CAN DO BETTER. ~INCONSISTENCY BREAKS DOWN BELIEVABILITY~*

I am grateful I am at a point where I can speak about this and not break down – I prayed God would wipe away my tears and today I discuss and not shed a tear because of Jesus I am free and have got a joy overflow and I’ll rejoice at this because my redeemer liveth.

Believe me I know first hand about the struggles of rejection and it’s consequences. Did I mention that I could probably if not possibly have formed part of a prostitution ring by now if not for God’s mercy and Him constantly watching over me. *I grew up a thief, big liar and an adultress one with an awful dosage of lust and for married and elder men at that*. I remember abusing a little boy I had as a neighbour for my sexual demonic pleasures. I remember that I was roughly 6yrs of age at the time and I once washed myself and got all dressed up and I stepped out to the Checkers store and filled up the big size trolley with toys and actually expected to walk out the store with it as is without paying 🙆🤦😬 whilst my poor dad was at work and I was home alone and funny story I never not once took or ate something from the house that was not mine. I don’t understand and sadly cannot explain my reasoning at that time. FAST FORWARD >>> I became suicidal as time flew by. I was round about 10/11/12 when I would attempt suicide by stabbing myself with the biggest and sharpest knife we had at home because now my rejection files made me become reserved, problematic and absent in the company of my very own family at home and this I really struggled with because anyone who personally knows me knows how affectionate I am. Naturally I am bubbly, outspoken, open, easy and present because that is how and who I am as granddaughter to my late paternal grandmother 🌍🍯.



My rejection files made me available for abuse at school to a point where I no longer had actual friends because I seaked refugee in those who needed me for my academic excellence and that’s it. I remember entering shopping stores and public spaces in general and I would just get lost in my thoughts of how and what life would and could have been like if only my parents did not get divorced and I got to be raised by them. I always felt out of place with my uncle’s family because I thought of myself as an intruder and tried so hard in all the wrong ways to fit in and it just didn’t score or stick because I always told myself you not good enough – it won’t work out – and as I thought of myself so it happened.

*You know God is amazing and serving Him is a great privilege and joy – it is as if you found out already about something great planned for you as a surprise and now you have eventually been given it*🍍

I fought rejection so much and for so long to the point where I made myself available to people , places and events noway close to being worth the effort. Even before God I formed a big person forgetting He knows me way too well. After all the days and acts as a result of my rejection files I now realized that I needed a Lord and saviour and only Jesus alone would do and unfortunately for me I had no one to guide me spiritually because I discouraged everyone who tried ministering the gospel to me years and whiles back. I had no friends too because they saw me through for the hypocrite I truly was. With the world swinging in talks of God and who he is along with Jesus in all different interpretations I now had no spiritual lead, I didn’t even know what to understand of God or let alone who to call Him because the world was confusing me. When I finally turned 15yrs and in the August month of the year 2016 I got down on my knees and raised up my arms and cried out *”I do not who you are or what to call you because I have no knowledge of you and the world is not helping so I want you creater of all creations to consume me , you promised to never leave me nor forsake me so here I am ready to be consumed by you today”* and that was how I had a brand new life given to me and I became God’s own. Life became amazing ever since and I’ve had my faults and spoils since then but that never took me away from God rather even closer. I found a bible believing church to help me know Christ better in our area and I’ve been there since. I made mistakes yes and fell even shorter of God’s grace at times and committed great sins yet His love was always greater. Even as saved I was I still never told God how my rejection files made me to feel even though you’d think to yourself ~that if God truly and surely is mighty then He should have cleared me from it and that is exactly true *YET* we also tend to forget that God is the almighty El Rio – He sees it all and knows it all but gave us all a will. As humans, I myself included if it’s not pride then we tend to form before God and punish ourselves by not telling Him the obvious. God is truly majestic and holy🔥✨. Once I learnt to let go and let God life became easy and I learnt to openly tell Him about how the rejection files made me to feel on Saturday 09 October 2021 and the Sunday 10 October during bible study I learnt that *at times we pray for God to change something in or about someone and it doesn’t happen because THE HUMAN WILL WON’T RECEIVE OR ACCEPT the change you are praying for 🤷 and this is a perfect demonstration of God not crossing our will. God doesn’t cross our wills!!!!!!!!!!! The most critical decision of our lives is giving our life to Christ and I chose to do so and would encourage you and also urge you to do so because *”God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have eternal life”* , and this is a famous scripture many of us know but we forget the passages goes on to read *”For God sent the Son into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world might be saved through him”* °John3vs16and17°

I have been through my own share of spoiled sand but then again I conquered remembering that : certain decisions down the line bring fruits that we can look back at and be proud of making because God tests those He loves 😍😌.


¹ Rejection is painful because it comes across personal and loud as – “you are not good enough”
² Rejection only comes with a spirit of lies and brings about division.

Let me encourage you today to surrender to God on everything because : >
You are currently sitting on someone’s salvation, blessing and destiny so get up and make a stand and be available and accountable for what God has called you to and for.


Ladies and gentlemen I am Cïey Dada and amazingly grateful to God that He found me worthy through His holiness. I’m grateful beyond words to be able to be the writer of this growth piece – may you desire salvation as you read it an accept the Jesus not only as your saviour but also as your Lord and begin to grow, grow and grow if you haven’t been growing yet.
