Trust....

Trust........
What does it really mean to trust God
To depend solely on HIM,
To surrender your will,hurts,pains and emotions totally
to HIM....

Lately I have struggled....
struggled to make sense out of all the happenings in my life
I have struggled....I have tried to question the reason behind the Whys...
Why do I have to go through Fire...
Why do I have to go through a season of mourning..
Why do I have to be tested
Why can't I just have it easy like everyone else(or so I think)
Why do I have to have a wilderness experience
Why do I have to wait..
Why Why Why...

I remember Brother Joseph..
I wonder what he must have thought
He faced,rejection,betrayal,death,hardship,prison and so on
Why...A great destiny a Glorious Future Ahead.
I remember Brother Job and the season of the trying of his faith.
He lost all...But God restored a hundred fold

Everyday I wake up to my struggles and the whys
But I am choosing to make a constant effort
To trust....
To trust the one who is dependable,reliable and True
The one who never Lies and is Able to Do what He has promised.
I am determined to take advantage of God's grace
To bask in his presence and to allow the truth of his word
Dissolve all my fears,worries and questions away.

He says to me...Trust me..though you can't see you can trust me...the road may be steep
but you can trust me...though you may be hurting...you can still TRUST ME...
He says to me..Trust me with all your heart...don't try to figure out the whys on your own..
In due season you would understand the whys..
Today as I stand on the promises of God while encouraging myself
I want to encourage you as well..
Your problems or challenges do not equal God's promises
He is a good God and He remains faithful,His love for Us is undeniable.
Don't give up...He would come through for you.

Psalm 42:11
The Message (MSG)
Why are you down in the dumps, dear soul
  Why are you crying the blues?
Fix my eyes on God
 soon I'll be praising again.
He puts a smile on my face.
  He’s my God.

Trust is so key in our walk with God & every experience he brings our way is to strengthen our trust in Him.

I daresay the way you have trusted in Him in these times is proof positive that He can trust you with His treasures.

I look forward to celebrating with in due course.

My Case Is Different...

Shutting my eyes I can vividly remember every time someone has tried to discourage me from launching out or dreaming big based on someone else's experience or failure... sometimes it has been said unconsciously,without even thinking... The moment you mention your intention and desires,there is always someone who is ready with an example of someone else's story... Who says I have to apply 10 times before I get a visa to a foreign country Who says I have to have a god-father before I get that dream job Who says I have to attend 5 interviews and receive 5 rejections before I get the job Who says I have to wait and wait,fall into wrong hands and then learn from my mistakes before I eventually  find my prince charming.. Who says I have to have connections to get ahead in life... My case is different... I am not a statistic...my case is different The fact that it happened to 4 or 6 people you know doesn't mean it would happen to me my case is

THANKSGIVING..

I have never had to struggle for want of what to write but I have literally spent the past minutes just staring at my screen.... where do I start from is the issue at hand How do I compress the faithfulness of GOD to me in just a post...hmmmm.. I turn 28 today..yet it seems I have been here longer.. I marvel at the quality and the richness of my life.. The wealth of experience and all that God has invested in me... For all his many blessings,For his favour and his Presence  Lord for all these and more..I say thank you I woke up today with gratitude,with a heart full of praise...God has been Good to me.. I take a walk down memory lane and I go back 15 years  to a time when I first accepted Jesus. What I am most grateful for is this decision I made to follow hard after JESUS A lot of times I failed Him,strayed away,messed up,blew my chances But His mercy never ceased and  I kept seeking and running after him.. I have come a long way 15 years later,I still love the lord r

I AM NOT DEAD YET

I am not much of the gardening type as much as I love flowers and pot plants, It takes quite a bit of an effort for me to give the flowers and pot plants in my front yard the attention they deserve... but I must admit they add such beauty and charm to my front yard. lately I have just been too pre-occupied with all that has been happening in my life and around me to even notice that I have plants to feed and nurture.. 2 weeks ago I noticed that they had all withered and the leaves were dry,brittle and falling,especially with the summer.. I sighed in regret..if only I wasn't too consumed with myself maybe my lovely front yard would have been preserved. I gave up,maybe it was too late to salvage the situation. I might just try I said to myself and see what difference it makes.. I set out a couple of days ago to water the plants...I had just a small bowl of water.. and as I went back inside to get more water..I got distracted and never got round to fully watering the
