Two months In the Blog (Love and Discipline)

 


It’s been two months.

Two months since I heard the name. Two months since the dedication journey began. Promises have been made; declarations have been released, and let’s not forget, his love has been made stronger.

These two months have been a test on my being and my spirit. I’m journeying with the father, and I love how he’s teaching me. I love how he continually pats me on the back when I do right, and how he gives me a re-sounding knock when I’m wrong.

I love how Father has opened my eyes to new reflections of me that I never really knew were possible. I love the word I receive from him on a daily basis and the fact that he is patient and willing to take me through the walk in all sincerity and love.

I love the people he put beside me on this journey, both young and old. My friends; Fortune, Wendy, Favour, Prince, and Christain are amazing. They've been those partners you never really would do without.

I haven't been blogging the way I should, but I've never stopped writing. 

A few days ago, I fell ill and there were a lot of moments of taking my medicine that I didn't like. I'm not a medicine person, but in this little tantrum I was having, I got remembered of something very specific.


The same way you have to swallow a pill, sweet or bitter to get well, that's how my word is to you too. It's a dose and should be frequent.


When God disciplines you, it's not because he wants to punish you for being the worst! You think he doesn't discipline? Think again!

I can assure you he does, it's not all goody- two shoes with Him. It's because he loves you and wants you to do better. He wants to get rid of that old person you were and make you a better human being!

"No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening - it is painful! But afterwards there is a quiet harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way." Hebrew 12:11

That's it!

God takes ALL his children through discipline as long as you're willing to let him do his work and like Hebrews says, its painful and dreadful, and annoying and you'll bawl your eyes out but, that's him showing you how much he loves and cares about you.

It's his transformation process!

Happy two months to us Father!

God loves you😌

For the moments when you feel stuck!

  I started this year with a lot of enthusiasm... I remained expectant for the best. I had plans that I wanted to accomplish, and I wasn't going to miss it. As time went on, things started going off track, and I wasn't having it. I tried all that I could to keep everything in order, but the more I tried, the more I fell apart. I was losing myself and my focus.  I was always feeling guilty about things that I did and didn't do. At the end, I broke down. I thought that I just needed to be strong, but I realised that I needed a mind shift, and this shift occurred in the most unique way ever. I had to learn by letting go. Strength wasn't the only thing that mattered to me at this moment, and I realise that now. This write-up isn't to confuse or give you a reason to pity me but to remind you that in moments where you think that all you'll need is your strength and willpower, Abba is calling you to depend on him more. While I had my plans, and of course planning is go...

Starting All Over Again

7:44pm  Saturday, 16th, November 2024. It's been a long while since I've been up in this space. I just read a post from a few months back and it made me realize that I really miss writing. It's been like what? A few months? A year maybe without consistently writing on the blog. In these few months that have passed though, I have grown, and I am learning constantly to be patient with myself. I've had time to read, develop, and basically build on myself. One thing is certain though, I still have a lot to learn, and this is only the beginning of my life's journey...  Okay, okay... I think I've somewhat started it or maybe gone through a mock phase of life's journey. Hmmm...  I've experienced growth, and I can see what the Lord is doing in my life. I see how intentional God is about each and every one of his children.  Just a head's up to all old and new readers, there's a lot of God in my writeups and I'm unapologetic about it. I love the Lord s...

Choosing to Trust God

This has to be the most trying moment of my life. 1 John 5:4 – For every child of God defeats this evil world by trusting Christ to give the victory. Have you ever experienced fear so much that you could cut it with a knife? Over the course of this year, I have felt anxiety that would be considered toxic for anyone. On most days, it felt deafening, and all I wanted to do was cry. On other days, I'd pull myself together and try to fix the pieces.  I had to ask myself, "Why?"  I wasn't like this before! I had moments where I was scared, but never anything like this. I could feel myself drowning in self-pity when I knew that I could be courageous and take a step further, but I remained here... in this dark place. The moments ahead of me were ones where I had to make real choices for my life, and I was afraid of making the wrong choices and of remaining small. I didn't want to miss out on the good things of life and make a mistake that was costly for me, and so I chos...
