Sometimes we can want something so badly that we make choices without considering the consequences. But if we wait for God and remain committed to be right in step with His will, we will receive His blessing, and it will be more than we imagined. In fact, it will be the best.
God promises that we will hear His voice or at least sense His leading telling us that this is the right way (Isa 30:21).
So, be careful not to want something so badly that you leave God out of it. The consequences could be devastating. Seek God, hear His voice and reap the rewards.
Celebrating the diversity of thought, analysing the characters we build, exposing the ills we do, and ultimately, delivering the virtues we so prefer... The Good i know, is the good i WANT to DO..

The cross - Paid for in full
I have been in debt for a while now, and my husband and I were just looking at how to make the needed payments in a given time. As we did this discussion, we realised that we had one of the biggest debts paid for already and with this in mind, we just took time to thank God for the free gift of life.
You see, when one has a debt, it lingers in their mind, it eats into their psych and will bother them until its paid.
The debt collectors would send letters informing of the legal actions to be taken, the deadlines etc. It was uncomfortable. However, it taught us a lesson. The devil is the debt collector, pointing out to people every wrong they have done and making them go into panic mode. Sin is a huge debt that man adopted by virtue of being born of man, but we have a redeemer - Christ.

Love yourself - nothing evil there!
This month, the Lord has been really impressing the message of love in my heart. The bible encourages us to love God, and to love your neighbour as you love yourself. At times, people miss the part of loving others as YOURSELF.
One can only fully love others when the love is deeply rooted in themselves. How do we love the next person when we do not love ourselves? How do we do to others what we want them to do unto us when we don't know what we would rather people do for us? It may be difficult for one to know how not to hurt other people's emotions when they don't know the feeling of being hurt. It is equally difficult to expect the best from the next person when you yourself can not define your best.

FAITHFUL GOD
All thanks be to God Almighty, whose love, grace and word has kept us alive this day to pen yet another article on this blog barely two years since i was last here. I honour him, exalt him, praise him, worship him with all that I am and all that I have.
The last time i posted, my fiance and I were trusting God for some finances for the Lobola process and wedding. Well, am happy to say all that I am now a proud wife and mother. I will talk more on that some other day. When the word of God says e still,it means exactly that. let us take God's word as it is. Lets not add anything to it cos God is watching over His word to perform it.
Glory be to Christ Jesus, my Lord and Saviour.
