I love the display of God's wisdom and sovereignty in His selection of people to use in the bible. Sometimes, truthfully i'm even silently praying not to appear a certain way that is too favourable to people, just by looking at the kind of people God chose to work through. Moses was a stammerer, I … Continue reading The Natural Abilities & The Holy Spirit
Inviting now, rather than later?
I had some baking to do in the last couple of days so this morning, I got up and did the last of it before getting to wash the utensils. Who else sees washing plates as a necessary evil? lol. It is not something I am very keen on doing but I've come to accept … Continue reading Inviting now, rather than later?
This ‘thing’ called Love :)
I totally understand why Jesus summed up the entire law in the Love command. Like the 10 written commandments, together with all the other laws, offerings and sacrifices were just dealt with in one way. Love way. Love is powerful! Last night, I got home feeling like I would literally break in any moment, like … Continue reading This ‘thing’ called Love 🙂
Moments of Truth ; Self aside, Personality aside
I saw early on that one of the weaknesses of my personality independently, is the need to understand everything, especially if it has logical elements, I always feel a need to understand why certain decisions were made up to the final stage. In submitting to the Holy Spirit (which is still in process), I saw … Continue reading Moments of Truth ; Self aside, Personality aside
Dealing with fear
From the blog-post 'Do it Afraid', I finished it with this sentence ; "Don’t do it afraid. Deal with the fear, then do it." A meticulous friend of mine brought it to my attention that it might be worth breaking down what 'Dealing with fear' is, because logically reading that, it probably makes sense to … Continue reading Dealing with fear
How do I live above temptations?
This is a follow up blog post from the last one, where I spoke about a conversation I had with a friend. The question asked was 'How do I live above temptations and stay spiritually grounded?' This was my response to her, only with subheadings now and I hope it impacts you as well. 1) … Continue reading How do I live above temptations?
Are our bible plans really enough?
This post will probably not apply to every single one of us, some of us might even have an opposing view, so here's stating in advance how subjective this is and my advice to any growing Christian like myself. I had a conversation with a young woman a couple of days ago, she had decided … Continue reading Are our bible plans really enough?
The Oprah’s and the Ruth’s
It’s really amazing how Ruth made it to having a book named after her in the bible, I have nothing against her but I’ve just always wondered the criteria used to decide how books were named because if it was a show of strength and resilience, Deborah should’ve come first, if it was by leadership … Continue reading The Oprah’s and the Ruth’s
‘Do it afraid’…
There's a popular saying to 'do it afraid', it is very widely accepted amongst people who just want to push and encourage you to do whatever it is you want to set out to do. More often than not, it comes from a place of pure intentions and I think the Subject also gets the … Continue reading ‘Do it afraid’…
Rib yet to find its cage and Rib sitting in its cage alike.
The above message was broadcast and a few responses came back from women alike who didn't completely agree with the post and had other opinions that strongly negated the point stated in the message above, however, I personally feel like the responses given showed that the recipients missed the point of the post. I got … Continue reading Rib yet to find its cage and Rib sitting in its cage alike.
