Christianity - Overated?


It's Sunday again...

A day where a lot of us spend time in his presence, go to church, listen to the Pastor preach, and in all certainty vibe in the Sunday ministrations. 

That's how we are as Christians. It's the  supposed norm that we've been taught even before we could walk. It's how the "Christian" lifestyle is said to be.

Yet, when we walk out the Church and go to our various homes, we live totally different lives... It's like we're another person and living a double life. Living a life that doesn't please God.

And no it's not just about dressing or talks, it's about those secrets in out closets. The hidden diaries in our hearts.

What does it mean to be a Christian?

What does the Christian lifestyle entail?

Isn't it about being Christ-like?

Well...

I think we seem to forget that a lot. Being a Christian doesn't mean we should live a life for show, it's not a reality show. We're not on TV.

Being a Christian means we are willing to accept Christ and let him take control, to let him take the wheels.

It means we choose to live like Christ. Choose to let him in on our deepest secrets, let him in our ugliest thoughts and in that process, let him clean us up.

Christianity has a lot to do with vulnerability. It has a lot to do with being at the Lord's feet and letting him see all you are. 
Being naked before him just like in the very beginning with Adam and letting him wash you up and clothe you.
It has a lot to do with letting the Father, Jahdosh, take your hands and teach you how to walk again.

That's what it means to be a Christian.

The Lord would never forsake you, not for one bit. His Holy Spirit is there to guide you every step of the way.

He said, "Come unto me... And I will give you rest."

Father never intended Christianity to be a religion. He wants a place of freedom, a place of rest. He wants you to be in an environment where you can be who you are before him, where you can be your best and your worst.

And so, when you leave the Church, do not forget that you can and are still in his presence, only if you let him in. 

God loves you very much😌

It can't be overated😊

    The Christian lifestyle is a work in progress.
    God will help us grow in his likeness.

Act of Obedience

"I look unto the hill from whence cometh my help... My help cometh from the Lord" Today, I'm in a sticky situation.  Found myself having a writer's block, hmmm... But I have to write not just because I know there are people looking forward to this, but because this blog is an act of obedience... It is his daily dose of love to you and I. I'm grateful to Father... Whenever you think you've grown distant, he's always like, " My child... Where are you going? Come back home..." When it seems like all hope is lost, he steps into the story... That's my Father, that's Jahdosh (Yah). I will save you.... Save you from every destruction. I am here for you , Father says , I am your help in times of need and even when you think you don't need me. You might think you're lost in that path, but I am right beside you. This is a word for someone, you might think that God doesn't love you, that he's left you behind. He's th...

Life... Be grateful!

Life... Only but a fleeting moment. Today, an incident that struck a lot of people took place today. The news of a coursemate being dead was one none of us had expected, most especially not in our final year. We never thought of wearing black and walking around the school, never thought we would mourn a soul so soon... But it happened. This led me to one thought, to one question... How can something that we hold so dear, be so easy to loose? A lot of times we are not worthy of where we are, but God looks at us and gives us life. He gives us the opportunity to live again. It's not because we're too beautiful or so smart, but just because he loves us. It's a privilege to wake up and see another day.  Learn be grateful to God for what you have and for where you are... He kept you through it all. From dust we came, to dust we return... Live a life that pleases the Father. He has kept you through it all not because you were worthy of it, but because he loves you. Lea...
