Fire and Water

Ever felt burnt?

By the many events that occur in life?

Ever had a situation where you felt like you were about to drown?

In a sea of emotions? A whirlwind of occurrences that seem to toss you to and fro?

Things happen...

Everyday...

But The One who LIVES has said,

"Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them,

for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you" Deut 31:6


Not only that, HE also promised,

When you pass through the waters,

I will be with you;

and when you pass through the rivers,

they will not sweep over you.

When you walk through the fire,

you will not be burned;

the flames will not set you ablaze; Isaiah 43:2

So yes, you may walk through the fire and pass through the water,

But He has promised; you will not be burnt, neither will the waters sweep over you...

So just let the feelings of being burnt be what they just are. Feelings.

I always thought crying when you were hurt was a sign of weakness
But I was hurt one day and crying and God told me it was okay
He created tears and He stood with me while I cried
Then HE wiped my tears away and told me it was okay
That HE was in control anyway
I cried in HIS PRESENCE then I felt HIS JOY
That, no one can take away
And after you've cried, stand up
and dance because you still have the victory anyway.
Ha ha.

Romans 8 : 35 - 39

Who shall separate us from the love of Christ?

Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?

As it is written:

“ For Your sake we are killed all day long;
We are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.”

Yet in all these things,

we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.

For I am persuaded

that neither death nor life,

nor angels nor principalities nor powers,

nor things present nor things to come,

nor height nor depth,

nor any other created thing,

shall be able to separate us

from the love of God

which is in

Christ Jesus our Lord.

* We thank God for HIS LOVE, protection, grace, mercies and kindness towards us. We also thank HIM for HIS interests in our destinies and working everything out for our good according to HIS perfect will and purpose. Amazing time @ n220. GOD LOVES us*

A new season is starting. Are you preparing for it? Get closer to God. HE will direct you.

Sharing The Truth

Been a while since I updated on here...

Hey guys, how are you all doing? Hope you're all getting a lot done especially since the year is flying by so fast that you could get spun around and tossed out of time if you're not careful...well, BE careful and make sure that doesn't happen, don't get left behind.

Left behind...reminds me of the Christian Novel Series by Jerry B. Jenkins about the post-rapture events. To the Christians out there, (and I mean those who strongly believe in the Word of God, that is the Holy Bible, as being the infallible, living truth and also believe and wholly rest upon the Holy Spirit in their activities), how often do you guys try to win souls?

Soul winning is a very big part of the kingdom as you, yourself are a product of someone's outreach.And I think it's an area that a lot of Christians including myself, need a lot of growth in. We feel like we're not brave enough or someone else will do it, but honestly it is to our good that we spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the ends of the world. I like how Kirk Franklin put it, 'because you may be, the only Jesus they see'. What if you're the only Christian who cares enough, that the person next to you will come in contact with for the next year to come? I remember when God was going to find me, it was because someone decided to reach out to me, in my dark, lonely, quiet but a bit miserable world...

God revealed HIS LIGHT through that ONE PERSON that decided to reach out to me

I think it's time we all do the same

* Today marks another landmark, just noting it on this blog, WE TOOK IT TO THE STREETS AND IT WAS MARVELLOUS!*

Update

Yes I know it's been a while.

Lots has been happening.

God is faithful isn't He? :) Lol.

The Lord is My Shepherd.

He makes all things perfect in His Time.

I really do intend to update at least once a month, which I am managing to do now :) Yay!!

But for now I leave you with this question:

What is the one goal you are aiming to have achieved by the end of your life?
