I Gave My Gem Away for Free

Understanding...

How would you feel if someone took what belonged to you, let's say a diamond, without your knowledge?

Crazy question, right?

Of course you'd be furious!

Why would this person take what was mine?

How dare he/she?

This person obviously knows that this precious jewel, this beautiful possession is mine and still has the audacity to take it!

But here's a simple truth, you didn't even know it was yours to begin with and so, all of the drama wouldn't hold water, and most definitely would not be taking place.

Now here's the unique thing. The scenario above depicts how we truly are today!

We basically do not know what we have!

We do not know essentially whom we are.

We walk around with our golds in our pockets without a care in the world because we do not know the value of what we have in us and even without our knowledge, this priceless possession is swiped from us right under our noses and we're left with nothing but a shadow of the glory and power that we are meant to have.

This is exactly how it is in our relationships. When we do not know the value of what we have or of the role a person plays, we get side-tracked by other elements and these things leave us in utter defeat.

What's more, our relationship with God.

When we have no understanding and knowledge of the value of God in our lives, we seem to get distracted by the situations of life and then, loose the most precious of gems.

God is not an author of confusion, and he most certainly will never be but when we seem to want to pave a way based on our own understanding, the literal meaning of confusion begins to be displayed.

The reason why you're doing what you're doing and still seem to feel frustrated about it is because you chose to do it out of your own understanding.

Pick up off where you left, go back to the one who has understanding, trust Him to unravel your valuable possessions and see the hand of God be made manifest.

I most likely have jumped from pillar to post on this one, but I do know that there is a reason for this.

God Loves You.

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

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 Christi

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.
