34th Birthday Praise!!!

Image
It is good to praise the Lord and make music to your name, O Most High, proclaiming your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night, (Psalm 92:1-2 NIV) As I reflect on my life today one thing stands out, the joy of knowing my savior Jesus Christ. He gives me peace and is  source of  my true happiness. On this special day my heart overflows with thankfulness. And because I'm happy, I will sing Praise. I praise you Lord because you are worthy to be praised.     I praise you Lord, for you are Holy, holy, holy is The Lord Almighty;      the whole earth is full of his glory.   I praise you Lord because everything that has breath should praise you. I praise you Lord because I was created to worship you only. I praise you Lord because I am fearfully and wonderfully made in your image and likeness. I praise you Lord because, your steadfast love for me endures forever.   I praise you Lord because, he that ...

Miscarriage!!

Image
( life begins at conception and has a soul) I've always wanted a big family with many kids. In my world, the more kids :), the merrier. Having to go through a second miscarriage is what you don't wish for. Your life changes in an instant. This time around, there was a message in this. Seek the Lord while he may be found; call on him while he is near. (Isaiah 55:6 NIV) As I cried in agony, having contractions every one minute lasting for 2 minutes for about 7 hours, I prayed for mercy. The stabbing and burning  pain gave me a glance of what hell will look like for those who are perishing. Those who have rejected the message of salvation. I thanked God for grace and for sending his only son to die so I can be free from this eternal punishment. The grace of God does not abound in hell. Which is the reason of his saving grace on earth. For the grace of God has appeared that offers salvation to all people. It teaches us to say “No” to ungodliness an...

We Are Not Alone.

Most people in the world today are lonely. The feeling of abandonment is a disease killing many souls. It brings about isolation which is unhealthy. Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound judgment. (Proverbs 18:1 ESV) Even believers in Christ sometimes have this disease. It cripples the soul and is part of the devils scheme to bring about frustration and fear. So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. (Isaiah 41:10 NIV) In my many trials in life, one thing I've learned is, I'm never alone. No matter how tough and difficult a situation may seem, my savior is standing right next to me. Yes, he is. If he lives in me in spirit form "The Holy Spirit", it means everywhere I step my foot I have him there. This means I often times make him suffer for my mistakes. Only to realize he tried to prevent that mistake but I did n...

Friendship! - Narrow gate or Wide gate Highway!!

Image
( Photo credit: Drevision ) Do you know your friends? I mean where they stand in their faith? Are you standing up for your faith? Let's make this very important point clear, There are two distinct paths in this life. In every friendship these paths can be seen. "the path that leads to life and the path that leads to destruction."  Listen to what Jusus said “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it. "(Matthew 7:13-14 NIV) The popular crowd or attractive friend might not be the best option. Thus, in every friendship you are either being pulled into the narraw gate or away from it into the wide gate. Do you know your inner circle friends and where they stand in faith? In today's world people seek friendship for many reasons. No matter the reason these two stand out.  ...

Happiness Has A Name !

Happy New Year 2015!! The start of each year is always a time of celebration around the world. The happiness on the faces of people is what most people want for a lifetime. People hoping for a better future full of success and prosperity, good heathy and happier days. Yet, one is lucky to stay happy for just a month. Life often happens and most are left to wonder what the year holds for them. If you are like me I cling to a scripture like; For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11 NIV) The question is why do most people fail to hold on to this? Why can't happiness, the one thing everyone craves just be steadily available always? It is clear that those who have not found the source of happiness, try to get it in fragile places. Places that look realistically attractive, yet temporal. That dream job you have always wanted, a new car, a house, you...
