The gift of life 🤍

Hey

By God's grace I'm a year older physically and I believe I am growing in Christ too just not up to a year yet🤍.

This is the day I am to be accountable to myself and make sure that no matter what, this is the day that the Lord has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it. 

I'm grateful for the gift of life and for the gift of writing. So many things I wouldn't be bold enough to speak out can just be poured in these pages of reflection as both a warning and encouragement to I and many others because not only do I write. I try to reflect on the message, I don't bother to make it very flashy but try to make it reflect my heart.

1 Corinthians 1:17 NIV

[17] For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel—not with wisdom and eloquence, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. 

With more consideration of the latter part of the verse.

 Don't worry, trust and obey, have faith, stand firm most of them are messages to myself but Apostle Paul lets us know that there is no problem peculiar to a person. No matter how rare a disease is, it doesn't have just one victim. So I understand that I'm not alone in the issues of life. I'm not the only one that has questions, momentary pains and things that we don't really talk about. But this year has been blessed regardless because the one Father I love to talk about has and is working on the things I don't talk about.

Sometimes I pray there's someone out there who treats this posts as a welcome reprieve, sometimes I worry if it teaches or encourages or even helps someone if not everyone but I'm to understand there's a time for each message and to those the message is for it will be well received.

1 Corinthians 1:18 NIV

[18] For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 

I pray for grace to reflect God's love to others.

I pray for a strengthened ministry 

I pray for The Word of Wisdom and Word of knowledge to impact heavily in my life 

And I invite the King of Kings to take pre- eminence in all my affairs, even the mundane ones.

I pray that you, who endeavoured to read this, is thoroughly blessed and lifted up in the spirit in this new year.

I pray you experience God for yourself 

I pray that nothing will lie to you that anything stands a chance of separating you from the love of God.

I'm a woman with a purpose and a mission.

And God said in Isaiah 48:15 NIV

[15] I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him. I will bring him, and he will succeed in his mission.

It's a new year of God's grace and mercy. Isaiah 48:6 NIV

[6] You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not admit them? “From now on I will tell you of new things, of hidden things unknown to you.

Let God reveal Himself to you, build your relationship with Him. Be consistent, Be intentional, Be devoted.

Once again happy birthday to me.

Isaiah 50:10 NIV

[10] Who among you fears the Lord and obeys the word of his servant? Let the one who walks in the dark, who has no light, trust in the name of the Lord and rely on their God.

And I'm very grateful for the gift of life 🤍.

Love and light, Shalom 🤍🌸
