Dear Christian, maybe nobody told you that Christianity is not about wearing your favorite church’s wristbands or shirts. There are times you will have to faith it even when it makes no sense, there are going to be times of pruning, you will not like it, but you will THRIVE🔥
How about the times you will have to forgive even when you clearly were not at fault, the times you will have to give all, I mean, the times you will have to spend and be spent,
How about the times you will do all thinking you’re pleasing God, and the HolySpirit comes to tell you it’s a waste, and you will have to start over,
How about the times you are about to sleep, and he puts burdens of people you don’t even know in your heart,
How about having to stand strong even in the face of temptation because you want to please God with your life,
How about the times your faith would be on a hundred and one percent, yet what still happened did happen,
How about the times you will travail endlessly until that vision is birthed?
Trust me, there are sure fun times of seeing the power of God, of enjoying intimacy with the Spirit, of growth and leadership, but there are also these times too,
times you will think, “am I the only one going through this? Why is no one talking about this?”
Chill Believer, you are not alone, relax... if you are at this season of your life, please don’t let go of fellowship, don’t let go of other brethren, even if it’s to sit in church and cloud your head with edifying messages, do it.
If you are at that season, I just want to tell you His grace is sufficient for you, and His strength is made perfect in your weakness. 2Corinthians 12:9
You will be fine, you’re just gold, being tried in fire, you will come out glittering, pure, perfect.
How has this Christian journey been for you? People are going through so much fam, I know. If you can, please drop an encouraging word for someone ❤️
I had a friend that said their mind, only when telling a joke. They didn't know that I'm God's baby girl and in turn God's paddy. He highlighted the seemingly "meaningless" lines to me as though with a bold marker.
They'd want to express some jealousy, but they'd do it in the form of a joke and for every time they did, I could discern what exactly they intended to say, and that was because I had made a simple but sincere prayer to God.
It went like, "Lord, please I don't want to find myself living Psalm 1:1." God did not only answer my prayer but also gave me the ability to make the right choices and the necessary tools that I needed to do that—The gift of Discernment.
Sometimes, God’s intentionality about us shows in really random things. There are times you have a thought/desire you didn’t even pray about, & you just come across it on your social media or somewhere you weren’t expecting. A God who hears our WORDS and HEARTS. We stan 🙌
There are lovers that listen to every words you utter and grant your desires. Then there’s that lover who not only pays attention to your words, but to your heart too... He listens to every of your unsaid words and satisfies you, how refreshing to know!
The times you craved for shawarma and got it without asking,
The times you needed money and someone just asked for your account number (out of the blues. Lol)
The times you needed a friend and he sent someone to love you... I mean, you remember those times, don’t you?
Sis, You Said No To Him Already, So Why Are You Still Monitoring His Life?
Why are you stalking him, really? Why are you checking his social media to see if he has the picture of another lady? You already said you weren’t interested, so why?
I’m talking to you my dear, why so bothered? Why do you still look out for him at events or gatherings? Oh, I get it, the Bible tells you to be your brother’s keeper, so you’re trying to do your part innit? Lmao!
I’m not done... why does your stomach knot when you see him talking to another lady? What’s the challenge? I mean, the young gentleman met you and spoke to you about his interest, you said no,
