My Walk Down The Aisle

As we wrap up the month of May, i will like to share about a reflective passage in James 3 Vs 13-18 . And i will break it down as simply as it spoke to me. HEAVENLY WISDOM EARTHLY WISDOM        Deeds done in humility that comes from       wisdom. Vs 13 Wisdom from heaven is first of all pure. Vs 17   Peace loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruits. Impartial and sincere. Vs 17         Harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition. Vs 14 Earthly, un-spiritual and demonic. Vs 15   For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice. Vs 16 Matthew 11 Vs 19b : "Wisdom is proved right by her deeds" Yours in the walk...

My place of strength, wisdom and direction, My place of instruction and intimacy, My place of safety and peace, Oh, i remember the things i have received in that place, How can i ever forget? Lord, bring me back to that place, I long for it Father, Help me not to loose touch... with my place of prayer, My power house... Yours in the walk...

This lesson came together in bits for me, a little study here and there over the months until i finally got the message God was trying to tell me. It all came together and now am gradually taking it all in. I have had this fear in my Christian walk that overcoming a difficult situation helps deepen your faith in God, but it also prepares you for greater challenges, (my fear is in the greater challenges). So while i am grateful to God for helping me through a difficult situation, am always careful to learn from the experiences in preparation for what might be ahead. (am not sure i do a good job at that, because i have to learn and relearn again sometimes).  I remember talking to a friend about it, who told me that it means "my love for God is not perfected, because perfect love casts out fear". I remember thinking "really? what verse of the bible is that again?" and this led to my study and discovery. I am going to share this understanding in the sequel it w...

I have had my share of struggles especially in my faith walk. There has been times i felt like God was not listening to me or maybe he has forgotten me. And its so amazing how God uses situation and circumstances to speak to us. Isaiah 49 v 14: "But Zion said the Lord has forsaken me, the Lord has forgotten me" . Remember Zion is the place of the Lord's dwelling, (Psalm 9 v 11: "Sing praises to the Lord who dwells in Zion" , Psalm 132 v 13: "For the Lord has chosen Zion, he desired it for his habitation" ) so i try to imagine the situation in Isaiah 49 v 14, a situation that seems like The Lord had forsaken Zion. And yes, i identify with this passage a lot, as i have asked the same questions and felt the same way. So here i was after a long day's work, so tired and in need of a good night rest. In the middle of a good deep sleep, i heard my son in another room call me in the middle of the the night and i remember waking up to the sound of a...

I have been recently blessed by the book of Jude, so I wanted to share my lessons with you all. Have you ever wondered why Jude is just before Revelations? One book of the bible that am always afraid to read is Revelations, because I know it talks about the end times and things to expect. The last time I did a deep study on the book of revelations, I had all sort of end time dreams. :) The truth is we cannot shy away from it any longer, the end time signs are here!: the pleasures of the flesh, human trafficking, rape, kidnaps, war, killings, terrorism, bullying, young adults on shooting spree etc..  I have found myself asking questions like: How did it get this bad? When will all this end? Will it get worse till Jesus comes? So I found Jude, just one chapter, very easy to skip, that's why I titled this write up  "I see you Jude". :) Jude made me put some things into perspective, no wonder Jude came before Revelations!! Jude was supposed to prepare us for Revelatio...

David knew something about God that made him run towards Goliath with a sling and a stone, Daniel knew something about God and he refused to bow to the king. There are so many examples in the bible of people who knew their God and God proved himself strong in their lives. If you know God and his ways definitely his acts will follow. The enemy knows this truth and he prevents children of God from truly knowing God, but instead we seek his acts. The truth I have found is that his acts cannot sustain our Christian walk. Have you wondered why the Israelites, despite all the miracles God wrought for them, they still grumbled and lost faith in the face of adversity? The parting of the red sea, manna from heaven, water in a dry land etc… still they doubted and grumbled?. Psalm 103 vs 7 says “God made known his ways (of righteousness and justice) to Moses and his acts to the children of Israel”. Daniel 11 v 32 “… they that know their God shall be strong and do great exploits…” ...

Happy New Year!!! 2015 is going to be a great year, Thank God for 2014, but I know 2015 has a lot of great things in store for us all. Have you ever felt guilty for demanding too much from God? Weird question right? But really there must have been desperate situations in our lives that we say “God! If you can just do this one thing for me, I won’t even bother you again!” or maybe it’s just me, so many times I find myself coming back on my knees for something else even after a recently answered prayer and I have often wondered if God is not tired of my requests. I am comforted by my experience as a mother that God can never get tired of us asking him for anything and everything. My husband and I are at a phase of parenting where our son just wants to do things all by himself “I can do it myself" and after trying several times he says “I need help please” and we never get tired when he asks. In fact, we are always available to help and we even get frustrated when he wan...
