Rain Storm By Vanessa Miller

I know this book is a bit old , I believe it was published in the year ‘07’ but nonetheless, it is still relevant to this time. This is one of my favorite books written by one of my top authors, Vanessa Miller. I love her series, they are very inspirational and stimulating.I want to focus on this particular series, Rain Storm. The entire story was well organized and everything was sequentially arranged, it was not confusing nor was it overwhelming but it was well organized, and each event whether dramatic or not played an important part in the novel.This is a classic!!

God loves us and If I didn't already know that this book surely has reinforced that point. God love towards us is so unconditionally and pure, His love changes lives, it transforms the hearts of man no matter how wicked it is. Ok, you are probably wondering how is this relevant to the novel. Well the core message of this book will reveal to readers the magnificent and unconditional love of Christ Jesus to us.I marvel at the way the author skillfully portrayed this message to her readers, I especially love how she based her characters on the biblical character Hosea and his prostitute wife.This novel modernized the entire book of Hosea which deals with Love and relationship.

Keith Hosea Williams is the modernized Hosea of the Bible and Cynda Stephens is the symbolic representation of Hosea’s wife, the prostitute.It is truly amazing how a person can truly love a person even if that person is not worthy of love, Keith's  character was truly being tested when God told him to wife a prostitute(Cynda Stephens).Although there were many struggles and heartbreak, Cynda learned how to love herself and in turn she was able to accept Keith's  love. Also, Keith learnt the true meaning of love, its not how beautiful a person looks or how well they complement you. Neither is it about how ‘perfect’ they are but true love is patient, kind and loving.

So, just as how God loves us with a unmerited love so we should also learn to love others in the same manner. God is Love and if we say we are followers of God then we should do as He does.This book is awesome, the message is clear and story line is captivating.I do recommend you to purchase this book or borrow it at your local library.

Secrets and Lies By Rhonda McKnight

Ok, I tend to read a lot of books…and I also love to write. So I thought it would be good to do a couple of blogs about books I have read.I just completed reading a book by Rhonda Knight entitled Secrets and Lies, its has 376 pages and I completed that book in 2 days (pretty good), its strange though how I find it very easy and relaxing to read novels that don't pertain to school…it takes me like months to read an article for school which has less than 3 pages (pray for me saints)But anyway back to this masterpiece, it was well written and captivating.

The book is based on marriage and how secrets and lies can destroy relationships.The characters Jonah and Faith represent many couples who are facing marital issues and are struggling to fight things out and stay together. I applaud the writer in her choice for the characters names, indeed both couples struggled with the aspect of faith, which I believe is a core ingredient to any successful relationship. We all need a little faith in our lives, faith brings hope and without hope we might as well be dead, hope produces perseverance.We need to have faith in one another no matter how hard situations get.Faith ( the character) went through a whole lot of drama with her troubled husband, I think she truly portrayed what a true woman and wife should be. Many women today want to get married and  they are not prepared for marriage. Marriage is not only about security and companionship…its about ministry.Two souls become one  and walking as one…and if we want to walk as one they must agree, and that's where the problem lies in many relationships.

Also,the author made her characters realistic and relevant, faith had issues like many of us. We all have issues and it is for us to acknowledge them and work on it and when we do that we can expect to see changes in our lives. Now, Jonah is a head strong man who made me a bit angry throughout the novel, he hid a secret from his wife for 10 years!!!!! , I don't know If I could forgive a man for that. That's to show that we need to KNOW the people with whom we form relationships with.Get to know people and their back ground before you marry them , many women tend to just judge men by there fancy cars, big houses and jobs and not search their souls. This book opened my eyes to many things.

The book overall was pretty good, the ending was good. It helped to dissipate some of my anger towards Jonah. I recommend you to  buy this novel, it was worth the money or burrow it at your local library. Just make sure you read it. Later folks.

Afraid of the truth?

Light exposes..it shows up the flaws, it leads us to change. But many refuse the light and bask in the dark, we hide from truth and embrace the darkness...we are just scared to change. Change means sacrifice, it means being new forsaken the old. How much of us care about our characters? we just want the fame and fortune, we chase the glamour and the diamonds. But all we see with the natural eyes with fade away... we are constantly being deceived. A blindfold is placed over our eyes and we are being led off a cliff. Soon the diamonds wont glitter, the cash wont flow and life will be no more. Life will END...and are we prepared for the end?!. When all this fades and when we see the big picture, will we be surprised or will we be prepared to embrace the truth and bask in God's glorious light?.

I know what it is to be deceived, to be lead astray. Everything in life is not what it seems...there is a bigger picture, there are things happening behind the scenes. Are we ready to embrace the facts?. Are we ready to live? This whole thing just hit me hard...light Vs darkness. I hope you will be inspired to examine you're life and see if your life is worth living. Is this all to life? there most be more and indeed there is more to life. While many of us are living the limited life I and the body of believers live in God's abundance...yes we walk daily in the overflow!!!

Look beyond the physical, embrace the spiritual. Life is like a horizon it doesn't exist, its a mere illusion that has deceived many of us. But when we move closer to Christ He removes all shadows and shows us the reality...the bigger picture is what he wants us to see.

God bless and Lets Live.

My Confessions

Sometimes the best thing to do for ourselves and others is to be honest.So, today I'm going to be honest, I want to be transparent and open, I dont want to be seen as a fake person or an over religious person who cannot relate to the struggles we all experience.I'm Not perfect.I have made many mistakes, I have many struggles...but I must press until God sets me free...free from this wreched flesh and these sinful desires. We all struggle to do the right thing, but sometimes it seems our efforts arent enough to prevent us from falling.But we all fall, and its up to us to get up and press.We all have weaknesses and many of us are ashamed to talk about the things that prevent us from being closer to God,but how do we expect to move pass these imperfections if we don't confess them and set ourselves free. Is our love for sin greater than our passion for Christ?! Are we only infatuated with an idea of a God...or are we truly in love with this Higher Being?!

Who am I?I'm a broken vessel, who is only living because God saw it fit to pour His grace upon me. If it was not for Grcae I would be dead in my sins. But each day that I sin, grace rescues me from the grave and give me new life...another chance to be in that sweet communion with God.So, why pretend to be perfect?! instead aspire to be perfect!

Too bad!!

I have mix feelings about a lot of things that have happened to me this past months, both good and bad things have happened to me! Oh, sorry I have been MIA for awhile, I took a trip to Jamaica,then I was caught up in my life, but to God all glory belongs. I'm doing OK, but just a bit baffled. Back to what I was saying, these feelings I am wrestling with are starting to drive me crazy,I have lost and gain some new friends in my life. The ones that had left I don't believe they were meant to ride with me on this journey called life, but I have earned a friendship from someone who I believe is God sent or maybe not (to be honest I'm not sure!!) I hope now you can understand my confusion. I think I may have issues when it comes to maintaining relationships,Is there something wrong with me or am I just being too hard on myself??! Either way, I'm going to trust God to show me my weaknesses and help me to improve my character.

Well, school will start anytime and I hope I'm prepared. Things are starting to go crazy already but whatever the Lord has in store for me will surely be mine no matter the obstacles I will face. I'm closer to my destiny, I can feel the pain. I'm about to walk into what God requires of me. I feel the contractions...so its time to push...push until I see my destiny. Thank God for destiny!!!

I hope to keep the blogs coming, I have noticed that people are actually reading them, which is great but what will be greater is that, I hope by me pouring out my soul someone will be touched and transformed.So, God bless you all and keep praying!!

Lust Vs Love

What really is the driving force behind our actions. What pushes a person to do things out of their character? Who should we blame for the things we do?! The power of lust and the power of love are the two fundamental forces that propels a person to do things, whether good or bad.



What is your propelling force? Is it Lust...or is it Love? lets be honest, lets be real.Examine yourselves. Do we truly know how to love, can we truly look beyond the color, shape, size etc and embrace a person or a thing. Many claim to love ,but sadly many of us are confused.Love isn't lust and lust isn't love. How can we tell the difference? simple, Love has NO boundary, no limit, no ending! Love is unconditional, love is a powerful force.It can push a person do the seemly impossible, love gives a person imputable strength to do the things the mind cannot imagine. Love is Powerful. Love is God!



Now, I hate lust. Its a term many people believe doesn't exist. The symptoms one experiences while infected with lust is often time confused with Love. Which is lasting?Of course Love. But this is a generation which loves to do things quickly, we don't like the process of waiting, so we jump into things too quickly.We jump into relationships with the intention to satisfy our greeds, sex, loneliness, money etc. Many don't have the desire to commit or to pursue a healthy relationship, its all about a 'feeling' and its all about self. SELF, that's the problem, love doesn't have time to think about SELF. love is not selfish..but kind. Do we truly love? Or we do this whole love and dating thing for entertainment?

Dont play with people's emotions and don't play with yours. Love is a remarkable thing that should be waited on.

God's Love!!

God's love for me is far beyond what the human mind can comprehend. Many people don't seem to understand the magnitude of God's love for them. Many view God as being distance and so far away that He is not in touch to the feelings of man. People sometimes can't seem to embrace this love that God has for us, because its too hard for us to understand. What is love? Many, say love is just a feeling that you feel, some say its butterflies in the stomach kinda feeling. Love is God, God is love.

I was reading the book of Jeremiah, and I was so overwhelmed by the magnitude of God's love for his people. Although Israel was considered an unfaithful wife, God in all His compassion and unending love still had love for the fallen nation. Israel began to worship idols, and to God this was the worst sin they could have ever committed, their worship of idols was being compared to a wife being unfaithful to her husband, God is like a husband to us and we in turn is His most precious bride.When we move away from God and embrace and love other things that draw us from the presence and fellowship of God.Then we create idols before God, its like a wife who dishonours her husband by breaking her marriage covenant by indulging in sexual relations with another man. With God, its the same!

We are seen as prostitutes, selling our bodies and lowering our moral standards just to satisfy our fleshly desires. God desires all of us, or bodies, our minds and our soul. We completely belong to God. God is not a distant figure that man cannot relate to but a God who desires fellowship and communion with His people. Lets not grieve God and pull ourselves away from His loving arms. Whatever we have done or where we have been God still has open arms waiting for you to run into them ,God is love so lets love Him back.

behind this face...there I am!

Who am I?! I was once baffled by this very question myself...what is the foundation of my identity? Who am I really?. Through prep school and high school, I was misunderstood. I was called so many things by the ignorant kids who they themselves were twisted and lost. But, I stood my grounds and hid within my shell, refusing to be defined by a group of people who followed and emulated the actions of their peers, talking about the blind following the blind! I hid myself from people, I drew into myself, I was never talkative, but a keen observer, I was never popular but within myself I knew I possessed the qualities to one day be a great leader...but at the tender age of ten I couldn't seem to understand why people treated me differently. They say I was an antisocial person but its a pity these kids didn't know that while I was locked away in my mind, God was perfecting me to be more than what they saw on the outside. I was very skinny (still am!!), I didn't have long hair, not the coolest or most outgoing...but inside of me I was somebody greater than what people could see.

I knew God existed from a tender age, I loved Him a long time ago...He was perfecting me, humbling me during those periods of rejection and cruelty I faced by my peers.I stood alone, I was different!I have fought many battles, lost many friends but in it all God was making me into who I am today.High school was no different for me, there were trials and there were heart breaks..but that was all God's doing to make me into His vessel of honour.

Behind this face, is a woman with many dreams, I have achieved a lot since prep school and high school. Some people would never believe it.I am victorious! I'm a new being, God has given me so many talents and has planted so many dreams in me that there are times I'm overwhelmed by it all. I'm so thankful to God for separating me from the world and putting me on a path of truth and destiny. I have a divine purpose, a calling to do greater things than I can imagine, the face you see today will have a different meaning tomorrow, because God is just getting ready to realise a new Esther , a new David, a mighty prophet Jeremiah...just know that God is going to do something big!! I'm only a face and a body, but whats inside of me is greater than anything else and that's all that matters...God is Good!

So who am I today?...I'm an apologist, an evangelist, a musician, a sister, a writer, a lover, a friend, a mentor...but most importantly, a servant of the most High God.

Yep..its I...tha lump of clay!

Ok, wad up fam!! its the one and only Geek of theology. Its a great honour to know that people are reading my blogs, at least I know I'm not wasting my time spilling my guts in this public forum...but none the less, this may just touch some one. And for those who may want to follow the new movement called CRAZI 4 CHRIST, I will soon be starting a new an offical page, so I'll keep you posted.

So, whats new?! Well been doing a lot of work got finals coming up and I got to keep my GPA up. I hope this summer to do something extraordinary, hey...its was really HOT the other day ( i know this is random but..) its was pretty warm, no jackets, no scarfs etc...just good weather, praise God summer is in the air. Ok back to school, yea I got finals and all, papers to write and the whole works...but still I find time for myself and the love of my life. I read the book of Proverbs and I'm amazed.Wisdom??!! many think having a PhD or some kind of degree makes a person wise...but that's far from wisdom, wisdom is so Crazy sick (in a good way) I cant even beginning to explain the revelations I got last night after reading proverbs, y'all got to check it out yourselves.

So as for me, I've been doing some minor projects, writing songs, making beats, free styling in the shower lol! That's where all my songs are born, when I'm taking a shower. Man, God is awesome and ever so gracious. I can be all that I want to be, thanks to God. God is really Good. Oh yea, TEDASHII's album will hit the stores soon. The album will be GREAT. Check it out!

Well, I love you all. To all my friends in Jamaica( well there aren't much left) I love y'all. I miss my peeps.I so want to go to Africa, sorry I know this is out of the blues..but I have a burning desire to go there, I know it will be soon God's willing. Alright, keep strong and keep your heads bopping to the rhythm of God's heart. I'm out!

Spring Break..oh please

Hey y'all, It's I the evangelist, apologist..basically God's vessel. It's me tha Geek!! ok lets see..its spring break and I haven't been enjoying it...its been boring. I can tell you all the stuff I DIDN'T DO, I basically slept did work and drown my brain into some books. I'm basically overwhelmed, too much thoughts have been going through my head...I've been from one extreme to the other. I've been angry, sad and just straight up confused. These past few days have been a roller coaster ride ...so many mixed emotions. Life is so funny and people are so strange.

Anyways, as I said it has been a boring Spring Break, but nonetheless I give God thanks for each day that I see. You know people can be VERY crude and so darn fake. I just needed to let that out. Ok lets get some positive energy flowing!!! Well during my boredom I've composed a couple of songs, also I've made couple of new beats which in my opinion is SICK!! I think these beats are hot,also I've written a kind of a philosophical breakdown on the concept of Passion and Lust, when I'm done with it I'll post it up. God is still God and He has been faithful to me...boi there were times I've almost lost my cool and tempted to tell people what was really on my mind BUT then God comes to mind. Life can be crazy and people can be crude.

I miss my Church I know this is random but ....I need to find a church were I belong, a church that I can feel God's liberation, I feel as if I'm being excluded and I yearn for 'freedom'. I love God and I love Christians..but something is missing in me. I'm tired of 'Christians' judging one another just because of what someone wears, or how a person talks. If a person looks different, smells different or is down right just DIFFERENT then they are sinners. I noticed that people are afraid of change, moreover Christians are afraid of things that look different. NOT everything that's different is SIN and NOT everything that FEELS good is actually good. There is a thin line between sin and holiness, but some people are so over dramatic and set in there own spiritual world...everything is sin for some people..I'm TIRED of all this, Tired of segregation, tired of the pretence, tired of the 2009 Pharisees and Sadducee's. I need a church, a church were people can feel liberated and God's love will flourish. God is for ALL, the man with the dreads, the thief, the liar, the child, the sinner...just for everyone!!!

I need.. a change!! I need freedom...! God has liberated men...there is nothing I can do to obtain salvation, nothing I wear , do , say or...whatever can save me except...the blood of JESUS! I'm save because of JESUS...nothing else.

Hey y'all!!

Ok so I'm officially on spring break and to be very honest its not so much a break but a time to catch up in my academics...but nonetheless I'm so grateful for the time. I've had some very interesting things happening to me lately. I've drawn closer to the love of my life, I've tripped up a bit but still His love is there to rescue me. So, yea I guess I'm still in love with the higher love!!

So, I just had my alone time with God, and of course my soul is renewed and uplifted. I'm not a perfect person and neither do I try to portray myself to be as such but instead I try to show people that its ok to stumble and mess up but also you must get back up and push again. Oh, happy Easter to all my viewers!! If you're not so sure what this Easter thing is about well I just got one word, well actually two words 'THE CROSS'!!

Ok, I think I'm straying a bit. What I really wanted to talk about today was the worldly distractions. There are so many things out there to draw and keep the attention of people in all the wrong places. I'm so guilty of it too! These social networks are draining my energy. I got an ipod and to be honest I can't go anywhere without it, I also got a cell phone and my mind makes me believe I cant live without it, I'm currently on 5 social networks and to be honest it rules my life not to mention I manage 2 email accounts...now tell me if these stuff ain't a major distraction???! Boi, the devil knows how to pull the people away from God. I don't totally blame the enemy because I have ALLOWED these things to rule my life I made that choice, and a pretty bad choice it was. But anyway, I always still find time for my Love, so Today I read Jonah 4 and now I'm so baffled by this passage. I think I'm going to have to do some research on this one!!!

So, people don't allow these foolish networks, ipods and cellphones to rule your lives...lets not waste our lives snooping on other peoples profiles, lets stop checking our emails ever 5 minutes cause we sure as hell know nobody ain't emailing us!! But seriously, lets be productive, efficient and steadfast people who got a life and if you don't got one at least try to act like you do!!!

I'm out, gotta go check my facebook!!! (sike)

CHRISTUS LUMINARIUM

I’m so in love, I have such a deep desire and passion for my God. He is all sufficient. He is all that I need and require. I need nothing else to fill me because I’m already filled, no other person can even touch my heart the way God does, He knows the right things to say. God is all powerful and caring a true lover, a true man.

I was just listening to a sermon “Christus Luminarium” and I most say it has spoken to my soul and totally reinforced all that God was trying to teach me during these past months. I don’t need to sell my body to a bunch of men to feel wanted or to experience ‘love’, I don’t need to drink ‘love’ from a broken vessel, but instead I can run and drink from the well that never runs dry, I will and can drink from the fountain of love, my God is all I need , I don’t need a boyfriend to feel accepted nor do I need to flaunt myself around to gain the approval of men. I’m satisfied with God, I’m SO complete in Him. I don’t lack nor want in His presence. I don’t need to fight for His approval, his love its unconditional whether or not I’m looking my best his love never changes. I love my God, I really do!! If you think I’m lame, lonely or desperate…I’m not, because one thing I have learnt is that TRUE love is found in Christ. No one has ever loved me with such care and consistency…I’m no longer seeking, God says He’s my EVERYTHING and I believe Him. I’m so in love, I’m just straight up crazy in Love with my God.

I feel so liberated. Love is such a wonderful thing, its so rewarding. I have finally found Love and it feels Good..so Good!!!

Nuff love 4 Christ

I thought..and It was..oops!!!

Was up to all those who may stumble on my insignificant babbling, but nonetheless all Glory to the high priest, the mediator of all my transgressions, the prince of peace, the joy of my life and the lover of my soul, to Him I exalt.Jesus is Da King!!!!

Ok, hey! I'm at school and I had a bit of time to spare. Just came out of a philosophy class and as usual it challenged my brain..but still I gained some insightful theories. Life is all based upon interpretation. What I may conceive as fact and to be a reality, one may have opposing views and I do respect that. The mind is a powerful form, sad to say many never really understood the power of their thoughts until its too late. For example, a man who goes crazy and walks up into a store and slaughters 20 people or a man who is so overwhelmed with life and its madness commits suicide.All these things starts in the mind. Suicide is first committed in the mind, lust is cultivated in our thoughts, murder starts in the mind. Sounds trivial and illogical...but its true, both biblically and Psychologically.

If people really took the time out to examine their thoughts about situations maybe life would be better . Many of us plan things in our minds, but yet we are so surprised when all our thoughts manifests. Some say I didn't mean to kill my brother or I didn't mean to cheat on my wife, but the seed was already sown in the mind and so the mind acted upon the constant thought and so the body reacts and poof we messed up. What are you thinking about? Don't act shocked when your thoughts become alive through your deeds.

Lets use our minds to press forward in a more positive way, like thinking outside of culture, outside the religious box churches have placed us into....! I think ,so therefore I am, whatever my mind can conceive I must can therefore achieve it, one night I was talking to the love of my life ( Jesus) and He said "see yourself in the spirit and it shall be in the physical". I took that bit of advice literally and here I am envisioning myself doing the impossible, I have so many dreams and visions...I have already started planning a little grassroots movement, its starting to take its form but by God's grace and promise to me I will see it manifest to its greatest potential. But anyway, back to the mind, please be careful of the things you entertain in your minds....it may just become a reality.

Got a Hebrew class now, so I'm out!

My heart Cries out for my Love

I don't feel guilty, I don't have any regrets....Is something wrong?! maybe! OK, soI havent been to church in weeks, more specific..like in 4 weeks now! Am I angry?! Naw, its just that, I have no motivation to go. I have been through quite a lot since I've migrated to this place. Some of my experiences have been good while others are not so great. I love God, no doubt about that. But, I'm fallen, if I don't catch myself I'm going to crash and burn! but none the less my God is gracious and ever faithful. At the moment I'm Listening to K-drama's song 'We still standing" its a very encouraging song and its speaking to my soul now. But back to my previous point, I have no regrets for not being at church,Is it the people that's turning me off? I have a whole lot of mixed feelings about church folks these days. I just don't feel alive, I felt like a piece of me has died or maybe its because..I've stepped away from the love of my life. Building a relationship is not easy, its hard work. I've been slipping up lately, the things I should be doing, I've somehow forsaken.Before any of you get the wrong idea, I'm still talking about God! He's the only true man in my life.

But anyway, I thought just popped into my head, I wonder what people think of me? I wander what they see in me that I possibly can't see in myself? My thoughts are a bit jumbled at the moment and i know the reason why...its because I'm slipping away. Each step one takes away from God, the closer one moves to death. I can feel it, somethings not right. I feel the distance between us, its killin' me and I know it grieves Him as well. I'm slipping! Don't get it twisted its not because I haven't been to church but its the mere fact that my heart has found a new love, my heart has been indulging in things that's taking the place of my God. I'm talking about idolatry!!! Yea, trust me a lot of Christians are guilty of it. I need to get back to that place with God, where each morning He drops a song or a word into my heart. Where, I Can feel His presence and talk to Him. I miss those times, that's what sin does it separates man from God. Now, I'm in a war. I have to once again fight my flesh so I can I run into the inner courts and straight into the arms of my Father. I'm slipping, but I must fight for the love of my King.

WOW

I was just feeding my spirit on the word of God, and then decided to watch a couple of videos of Juanita Bynum's preaching. I must admit, although this woman has been through whole lot she still has this power and anointing to break the yoke off God's people. These videos has brought light on certain dark areas in my life as well as it has confirm some of God's directions in my life. Hope you too will be edified and empowered

Peace in the midst of all tha drama

Boi, there was a time I thought my life was uneventful...but I'm taking back all that loose talk!! Today, was like no other. First, I must say I'm extremely upset and a bit sad. I'm a bundle of mixed emotions. Life can be crazy and if you're not careful it can consume you...that's why you have to pull away from the crowd sometimes and move into the presence of God. Only God can give you the strenght to press on in this crazy world. School is so dull to me, I don't know but I think I need to be doing some other things.I have so many ideas and visions that I want to start working on but I just seem to always put those off for many reasons than I don't want to disclose. I just can't afford to waste my life....I just want to maximise my abilities and I want to use my knowledge and talents outside of school and into something more meaningful to me!

But anyway back to the crazy world thingy, yea it can get crazy and today I had a chunk of what crazy can be. Everything seems to be flipping out of control, the economy is dying, we are approaching a depression...and my professor is making me mad! I'm not so much concerned about the economy because I know my God will provide...but as for my professor, God please bless his soul! After I vented my anger, the word came: " you can have peace in the midst of the storm"Oh, that was all I needed to know. Instantly I felt a sense of joy,I found myself smiling as if the world suddenly evolved into heaven, every problem vanished and I was in bliss....until a picture of my professor came to mind!

You see that's the plan of the enemy, he hates when you smile, he just likes to stress people out. So its up to me to allow God's joy to flood my life or I can continually dwell on the pains and stresses of life...! I'm choosing joy, so I know I have to keep my mind on Christ and I know He will keep me in perfect peace!

Kickin it at Hunter

Well here is a quick blog, just want to give you an insight in the life of a theological geek!! Well I'm pretty tired but with God and His unfailing grace allowed me to see another day...This day is different, its like none I've ever seen! some may say it seems like any ordinary day, but to me each day brings new insight and new goals. Each day is given unto us to do a new thing, whether its to start a fresh and change our mind set about a particular thing or whether its to reach out to someone who may be need a 'hand' in life, whatever the case its still remains its a new day, for doing new things.

So yea, while on the train this morning,I saw a lady with a huge piece of bread crumbs on the corner of her lip.I really wanted to just brush the 'distraction'off her face, I hand to fight to keep my hand at my side. Boi, I stared on that crumb on her face all the way to school and as you can see I still cant get it off my mind. The funny thing is that I wasn't the only person who was distracted by this 'thing', everybody took a double take at her mouth. Boi it was a sight!!! I wished I took a pic with my phone so then maybe you'll understand! But anyway,just want to drop a few words into your spirits and here goes: "Don't try to change people's minds about you but try to change your mind about yourself". People will always have negative things to say to you but its for you to keep a positive mindset about yourself. God made all of us unique and with a specific task some people may never be able to accept you as you are and some even may see something great in you and so they try to hold you back...but to all my fellow men out there please PRESS ON In Jesus name!

Got a class now, so I'm out!

I LOVE GOD...BUT

I love God but sometimes I mess up really bad. I find myself doing the same things over and over again, things that I know makes His heart break, things that I even know that can kill me and destroy our relationship. Yea its bad like that. I love God, so much He has done so much for me, I just cant seem to give Him the love that He requires. I try to put aside the things that would beset me and try to press forward and Love God totally in purity…but Then comes along sin and then flesh beckons and encourages sin and there I go falling to the temptation. I try to fight this demon but I find myself losing more battles than winning. I hate to grieve my God, but God I do need your help. I need you to give me something to kill this ‘flesh’.I bear this sin and I don’t want it to destroy me moreover I don’t want you to take your spirit away from me..But please renew me.

I just remembered David, he messed up a lot during his reign. But He was still a man of your own heart.You knew exactly who David was, even before He became King, you knew his weakness for Bathsheba , you knew of the evil that was in his heart….but still you chose him. Just like many of us,God you know we have weaknesses but still you chose us for your purpose. What love you have for us? Even in our mess you still show us favor…we are so worthless. I’m not trying to justify my sins by saying "oh God still loves me anyway!" Yea that’s true…but just remember when David fell into sin, he admitted his sin accepted the consequences, repented and pleaded for salvation. He had a heart for God, he begged God not to take His holy spirit away from him, but just to renew him.Well, I too need that renewal, I'm begging God not to take his spirit away from me but to draw me closer to His side.

"relationship hoppers"

“Its not good for man to be alone…”

This is probably the only scripture most young adults hold in high regards, boi no one seems to be single these days, everyone got someone on their arm, every ones profile has committed or married ( when they really aren’t) it’s a bit ridiculous if you ask me. Some may quickly jump to the conclusion that I’m jealous or feeling a bit lonely because no one seems to be coming my way buts that’s not it at all. I’m just a bit amazed at the rate people move from one relationship to a next.Its just really crazy (well to me ), today someone will be all in love with their girl /man and then the next week or months they break up…that’s not even what bothers me most but it’s the fact that just as they step out of one relationship, they believe its time to find a replacement. That’s really crazy and dumb…How can one move on to another person without giving themselves adequate time to heal and get themselves together. They just hop from one girl/guy to the next…no time out seems to be needed. I’m really bothered by this because most of these men and women are not aware of the great damage they are doing to themselves and others.

Most of these ‘relationship hoppers’ are very insecure and confused, sorry if you're offended but that’s the only reasonable explanation I can come up with. Its like a major crime being committed if one is classified as being single, being single is like the worst thing that could ever happen to a person. To be honest I use to feel that way, I use to believe that I have to be with someone to feel good or just to have this person call me all those sweet names and give me gifts and all the other junk…but then I realize there is nothing wrong with being single, actually its best to be single. Its not necessarily easy but it’s the wisest thing to do in this era.Neither am I saying being committed is a crime that’s all good and gravy but I believe a line must be drawn. Back to being single, yes folks its not BAD to be both single and celibate, I do agree that the ‘world’ would consider those people to be crazy or weird but its best. I believe if many of us actually waited patiently on the right person instead of grabbing onto the first homo sapien that claims they love us we would all be in better positions.

Lets just slow down and work on ourselves, ,many of us are not even sure what love is and yes I Do know what true love is. I will blog on that next time. Many of us are so insecure that we Just have to have a guy/girl on our arm…but that’s just really sad. Many of us really need to take a break from the dating world and work on ourselves, work on loving yourself…! Being single is a time to prepare yourself for that mate that God has for you..but many of us don’t like the waiting process we like our stuff instant…but that will only lead to destruction. I’m waiting and preparing myself, I'm working on my insecurities and my bad attitudes. I cant afford to be labeled a ‘relationship hopper’, I’m too GOOD for that. So, I'm just going to trust God and wait patiently until its my turn.Its not easy but it’s the best way, Ive seen people do all kind of crazy stuff just because they got dumped by some loser…but I guess love is blind or many they are just straight up dumb.

Anyway enough of this,I’m going to go check who has just changed their status to single today :)!

I choose you...

Oh my gosh there is just an overwhelming prophetic word in my spirit. Is it safe to say prophetic?? But this word just seems so surreal and relevant to me. All I can truly say is that God is about to do the most impossible things, the most unlikely candidates are about to receive a very life changing task. Just like David, this lil shepherd boy didn't believe that one great fate changing day, he would by chosen to be king.I could only imagine the shock when he heard Samuel was seeking him in order to anoint him to be king. My gosh, sometimes people look down on other people because of how they look, more over people doubt others because they don't SEEM to posses a certain quality(that is familiar to me!!). People may not Even want to roll with you because you don't match their caliber, but who is man that we should be afraid of?! When God does a great work its well done by Him, whom God chooses may seem incapable. I hope people will find courage in David's story; I call it the road to kingship. Don't let anyone put you down or make you feel inferior, we are ALL made DIFFERENTLY and we are given unique gifts and talents and many of us don't use them because we are fearful of what people may or we are discouraged by the negativity of others and hence we NEVER pursue the destiny God has in store for us.Don't be so caught up in trying to change people's mind about you BUT instead change the mind set you have about yourself.

You may look like the unlikely candidate for a task, friends may discourage you, people may not even support your dreams (sure know how that feels!!) BUT if God has ordained you to be a man/woman of purpose and destiny don't allow no devil to steal your destiny or your vision for yourself.Ok! I think I'm talking too much now...but I hope the story of David hits home in your heart.

Love yourself, believe in yourself and trust God, that's my motto hope it will be yours too!!!

PREACHING RELIGION OR THE GOSPEL

Many times we as intellectual beings have forgotten what the Gospel of Jesus Christ is all about. We have forsaken the commission or the reason for the commission. Many have been called to profess the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the multitude but we have gotten either so distracted by the popularity or either we have found that The Gospel has suddenly become a drag or boring!!! Is it therefore a fact that The Gospel has lost its spark or is it that we as evangelist have lost the passion? We are no longer preaching about the Cross but we are caught up in this new 'religion' about prosperity and best life now mentality. But we have forsaken the principles of the Gospel. The reason for the cross brings about the glorious miracle of Salvation.

Everyone wants a mega church that is growing and flourishing. Everyone wants the fancy cars and private jet rides. These things aren’t entirely bad but once they become our aim and our gods then God has a problem. What is the commission about? Is it wearing fancy rings and robes and traveling the world? What really is the commission about?!
Have we lost sight of the goal and purpose God has set before us, have we gone astray. Are we walking in the footprints of Jesus when it comes to ministry?! Or are we scared to go to heights and depths for the Gospel of Christ. How much are we willing to sacrifice for the Gospel of Jesus Christ?

The disciples suffered hardships and went through high waters just to get the gospel to the people, yes maybe our present time has become a bit more tolerable to the Gospel of Jesus or is it that we have began to slowly water down the truth so as to prevent the commotion and persecution. Persecution will come, but only then we will know who are truly servants for Christ. Will we run and hide or will we stand up and proclaim Jesus as Lord?
Remember the commission, remember the call.

IM NOT MY CLOTHES......

Who should we send to preach the word of God? Who is fit to represent the King? A couple of minutes ago I was bopping my head to 'Not 2 late mommy' by This'l. This'l is true ambassador of Christ, He preaches the word of God through his profound lyrical content, he's not ashamed to share his testimony to the masses, he is a true man of God. This'l is a rapper, not another Nas. lil wayne etc. But a man who is mean with a mic, His lyrics are soaked with biblical references, his lyrics are up lifting and relevant. So I go back to my question, who should preach the Gospel? Is it only the man who is clad in a Dolche and gabbana suit is worth enough to preach to the masses???or is it the man who holds a Doctoral degree in theology? You see, the church has its stereotypes. If you don't look a certain way then you are considered abnormal?\sinner. If a man walks into church clad in a Fitted cap, sagging jeans, throwback jersey and braids...he is without a doubt a SINNER! I'm tired of people judging one another, tired of people labeling people because of what a person is rockin'. Its sad how 'religious ' folks behave towards one another...and yet we profess we are christians...how sad! Ne ways, back to my point (again), Jesus chose a couple of fishermen to go minister the Gospel, yes fishermen!!! These men probably smelled like fish, looking all draped up in their attire...but still Jesus called them...chose them to be His soon- to -be- elite followers. Oh how great is the Love of my God...looks beyond, race, colour, clothing....!!! Why cant the church show such unconditional love to other people?! Why do we love to segregate and create rules and regulations to divide the body of Christ?! Jesus was a Jew, yet He rolled with the beggar, the lame, the fishermen, the prostitute....! My Gosh, we don't find that kind of evangelism these days, we are so quick to cast stones at someone who may look a bit different from us, we don't approach people with love anymore...but we are so eager to squash the esteem of another person making them feel less than and unworthy. So, who should really minster the Gospel?, Those who are pure in heart, those who have studied and examined the life of Christ! There are more but those I hold to be the core qualities.

So, to all my christian rappers who are holding it down for the Lord, to my evangelist who are roaming the streets and preaching the TRUTH, to all those who may not be clad in a suits with ties BUT still 'souled'(stole this from lecrae's song souled out) out for the Lord Jesus Christ...remain on the battle field for Christ and keep your heads up....PRESS ON WARRIORS!And to all those who are judgmental and Shallow minded..please carefully examine the life of Christ carefully and pray that God will teach you to walk in unity and love with the believers of Christ.

Nuff love,
