2017 - It has been a HELLUVA Year!

I walked into my home on Thursday and the first thing I noticed about my mum, who was sitting on a couch in the living room, was that her hair has grown back. I can't explain the feeling in words but boy! Was I ecstatic! You see, the last time I saw her, her hair had stopped falling out but it wasn't growing either due to chemo. So, seeing her full hair was like "God! She is actually healed".
In all honesty, all the amazing things that happened to me this year (2017) is nothing compared to knowing for a fact that my mum is doing A-Okay. 

But Yes! I did have an amazing year.

Whoever said Christianity is Hard lied

The beauty of a personal relationship with God is that you can fellowship with him regardless of the state you are in. That has it's root in the fact that God loves us in spite of us - our sins and flaws, not because of what we are or have or what we could become but in spite of our past, our messy dirty nature, in spite of the fact that we may never utilize the power in us, or use our potentials or fulfil destiny, in spite of our shortcomings, in spite of You - the real inner you - in spite of me.

He loves and longs for us so Come to Jesus as you are, Just as you are; with all the weight, pain, hurt, questions, flaws, faults, imperfect perfections, even if you just fornicated or had an abortion, even if you just stole, lied, cheated, or even if you just raped someone, Just Go to him and trust me on this, He'd gladly, most willing welcome you into his embrace. God needs no perfect being, he just needs one who wants to Love him.

PEACE of mind and heart

Being someone that easily gets depressed (a situation I get from being a melancholic - but you know I read somewhere that geniuses have the tendency to get overly depressed, hehehe! I'm just saying tho *wink*), I have learnt to appreciate the times where my heart is at rest and I have peace of mind.
Discovering the joy and warmness that is embedded in the having peace, I began to search for how I can attain a Lasting peace as I became tired of the mood swings - the joy today and  weight tomorrow; the peace today and the chaos tomorrow and as always, in the midst of my search Jehovah found me (as always. the guy is just super dope yea?) and taught me that peace of mind and heart is a necessity in the life of a believer as we cant function well or enjoy life or the Joy of our salvation if we are troubled and he said he's possible for one to have Peace 24/7, everyday of every week of every year, forever even in the midst of the worst of storms.

The lessons I have learnt on Peace is what I want to share with you on this post. So relax and enjoy the ride.

Imagine If you were the ONLY ONE in the Whole World...

I've been a little down lately (well maybe not a little). Anyway, I just haven't had any or enough motivation to do anything at all (even talking to God has somehow decided to seem like a lot of work *coversFace*).
Right at this moment,getting out of bed is like aaaaargggggh (and ts 2pm *covers face again*).
Well, I just realised one of the things wrong with me is lack of people around. For awhile I haven't being interacting with anyone out of social media and I believe it's taking a toll on me.
See I'm an introverted extrovert as such I'm not totally a people's person except it's necessary (and leaving my house is usually so much work) and still at home I'm always in my room alone, (except you count my bed, books, phone and computer as Persons)

Thank You Jesus

I don't have everything i want,
I have my share of ups and downs
There are so many things i'd like to have and like to do, there are places i'd love to go but i don't have the resources.
My life isn't a bed of roses.

At times it looks like there's nothing to thank God for
But then i looked around me and i saw people I'm cuter then, people I'm smarter than, richer than..
I looked around and i saw people who'd give anything to have my life,
Then i realised God is really with me.

Here i am, with two eyes that can see, two ears that hear, a nose with two nostrils that smell, a mouth that talks, i have two hands, two legs, i can think, i can write, i can type...

Oh! God i'm indeed grateful.. Thank so much and please forgive me for everytime i whine.

Lesson - no matter how bad you think your situation is, there's always something to thank him for.

If u can read this, say Thank u Jesus..
Thank him 4 d gift of life!
Thank him for safety.

Shoot! Thank him for nothing, just thank him.
As you honour him with thanksgiving, so he'd honour u with more things to be grateful for.
