BUT .. GOD


But... God

A lot of bad things and less of good could be said about my life by anyone who thinks they are somebody.

You see. Extraordinarily,  life around your real life gets owned by those who think they know you.

These are the individuals who control the catalogue and inventory of my existence.

Like every human being crawling alongside the ants, I simply sit back, watch and listen…

Why?

Because I do not have the power to control the narrative of what others think about me.

I am forever amazed by how I always kept this same persuasion of being alone in this world…

From day one after my mother passed on and left me at eight.

All the little lights of my naivety went dim around me.

I looked at the dark world and the world glibly stared back at me.

But… God.

It will really serve no purpose for this man to waste your precious time railing about how good I really am.

Living in a world filled with eight billion souls where each individual struggles to survive at all costs and by whatever means.

Who and what am I to think I have any chance and let alone any powers… to control what others think.

But… God.

Believe it or not, my eternal walk with God took place right inside that very second I was conceived.

I know I am alive and surviving within the big five.

I can see, hear, taste, touch and smell all the world around me and under my feet!

I do not consider myself the greatest amongst anything or some kind of any influence over anything.

But… God

God thinks I am the greatest since Adam and Eve. Because God breathes through me.

Blasphemy.

Hello.

I am a living thought inside the mind of the Almighty God and without me… There is no God!

But… God

In the Beginning, God said… Let us make man in our own image after our likeness.

You can catch my drift if you like.

Man existed long in the mind of God before he was created… by the same God.

This is the reason why many are battling to find God in this world because they have no clue of who and what they are.

But… God

For all have sinned and fell short of the Glory of God. The Bible says.

In case you don’t know this truth.

Sinners are nothing but strayed thoughts from the mind of the Almighty God!

You are not clean and good as you are made to feel by whatever religious discipline or persuasion you adhere to.

But… God

For God so loved the world in you, that He gave His Only Begotten Son.

That whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have Everlasting Life through His Son’s Death on the Cross.

You keep on looking and searching for God everywhere but… God!

Contrary to popular belief. We live in a world filled with believers…. There are no atheists and the gnostic down here below.

But… God

Who needs God!

I can have all the fun I need in this world without His help!

Really now.

Wait till you breathe your last and your eyes suddenly open up into the Hereafter…

This is the world where God lives and breathes through all the thoughts which died attached to Him… this side of Heaven.

But… God

The soul that sinneth shall die…

But… God

Yesterday, Today and Forever and Ever…

MY BABY.... SHE'S ALL I GOT!

Feelings, in whatever mood matter sometimes.. . If I must open the window of my heart and let you see the real backdrop behind this narrative... this is it. After being let down by my first daughter and after we've agreed for her to meet her little sister for the very first time... I was very distraught. She withdrew at the last minute. I went to bed with a very heavy heart. I believe the Spirit whispered inside my sad heart these sweet words in the dead of the night. I tossed and turned as I began to listen to my heart, comforting and propping and lifting me higher than I thought I could ever climb. Everything else is history after this amazing encounter of wrestling with these incredible words and lines in my heart. Waking up the following morning was nothing but a formality as I began to smooth all the way to my last verse. Yes, yes... She's My Baby and She's All I Got ! Reflections, realignment, retracing and recollections of the life spectacled usually incognito to the

IN PURSUIT OF A DREAM!

In Pursuit Of A Dream!   Life is great and life is hard! Life is cruel and life is not fair! These are some of the most common overtones heard daily from Space. If the Almighty were to afford you a rare chance to sit on top of the Globe for one day: you like God, will hear these conjectures coming from the corridors of life below.   We live in the noisiest and the most congested Planet as humans. If God had offered a choice to parents in which Planet, they’d wish to have their babies born. Our population would not have risen to Eight Billion Souls as it were.   There are thousands of adverbs used to describe the very life we’re all part of. Life is subject to individual’s interpretation the same had gone through this twisting and endless labyrinth of Human Race and Pilgrimage to nowhere .   Once upon a time. In the busiest day for parents and their kids, who had excelled after their twelve yearlong school of education and gained their deserved university entrance pass.  Thi

SO, YOU THINK YOU HAVE A COVENANT WITH GOD?

Image
COMMENTS ... Sometimes, to think that I'm in charge of what I write, where and when I like: is just a wish.  Yesterday I wrote a complete Soweto June 16th Uprisings Tribute.. two hours later, I've had to delete the whole thing. Why? Because l had no witness of the Spirit in my heart.  Well, that's just me! God gave me all these Thoughts and Words to play with the rest of my life. I have gazillion words to play around with.  This narrative came over me early this morning. I felt like God was reminding me of the Covenant between Him and Jesus.  Kenneth Copeland and all the false teachers dance around their mega churches and brag about the Covenant they never had.  I'm always left speechless whenever I see thousands run behind false teachers and false prophets as if they cannot read the Bible for themselves.  I follow Jesus in His Word and nobody else. I am the addict of the Doctrine of Christ!  Nothing fascinates and moves my heart and soul like the anointed Word of God!
