We cannot create a better god of our imagination compared to the one true living God. Even our imagination is lacking in its ability to think up a magnificence and wisdom that exceeds the one of the one true God. The most we’ll convince ourselves of as being best, in the god of our imagination … Continue reading The one area failure is guaranteed
Unchosen & Unpicked
In Acts 1, we read of the method the disciples deploy to choose another disciple to replace Judas who had died at that point. The bible tells us they had two main options; Joseph and Mathias, and after they had prayed, the bible said they cast lots among themselves and the lot fell to Mathias, … Continue reading Unchosen & Unpicked
Blame the 99
I recently came across a video on Instagram posted by a lady. The caption in the video was “Here’re the church members that supported me through my divorce”. The video showed only her smiling the whole time, which was to mean that there was no support from her church members through her divorce. The caption … Continue reading Blame the 99
Getting lost
Everyday I notice something new in me, funny that I can often trace it back to my husband. My mind has been influenced by living with him for almost three months now. I’m getting conditioned to what he likes and doesn’t like and I find that my brain has started to pick it up as … Continue reading Getting lost
We were reason enough
I think of Jesus journey to the cross often and I imagine sometimes how differently different parts of His story could’ve been. I also realise that no matter the difference in the story, the outcome was going to be consistent with the prophecy that went before Him that said He will hang on a cross … Continue reading We were reason enough
Applauding the murderer
I read recently in a short poster on social media that “Paul walked into heaven to the applause of those He persecuted and killed, that’s how the gospel works”. I’d never thought of that despite understanding that heaven was a place of untainted hearts, pure intentions and tangible love. Thinking about these things practically as … Continue reading Applauding the murderer
Choosing your battle
We read about Jesus and we see all manner of miracles, signs and wonders that He performed, sometimes directly (speaking to the person receiving the miracle), other times indirectly (his garment being potent enough to administer healing). His life and living reveals someone aware of His cause and going out of His way to fulfil … Continue reading Choosing your battle
Loving the whole
Recently a friend of mine reached out to explain some difficulties she was having with maximising space for her wedding, as it was a strictly by invitation wedding. She had probably gone over her invited guest-list, and in comparison to the seats available, she realised she had to cut down a bit. She reached out … Continue reading Loving the whole
My million dollar question
My most frequent and favourite question I get these days is “how has marriage been?” While I feel no pressure to respond to this question, I recognise that I get to be a placard and advocate for healthy Christian marriages in the large pool of horrendous news on what has become of marriages today. So … Continue reading My million dollar question
The Long Courtships …
Earlier this week, my partner and I would’ve been 5 years courting, if not that we got married a month ago! No, we didn’t plan to date or court that long, circumstances around us from the time we met to the time we got married necessitated that we waited that long to get married. Circumstances … Continue reading The Long Courtships …
