DAY TWENTY-SEVEN: COMMERCIAL SEX WORKERS, PRIVATE ESCORTS, ETC.

Welcome to day twenty-seven.

The day you saw the commercial sex worker across the streets, I bet you thought to yourself: this lady has no shame?!

Or you may have shouted in your mind: home wrecker!

Hmmm...

Even before you imagined a day in the life of such a person, you had already condemned her to hell and committed her to the devil.

We sometimes look down on them because we think they are doing the most despicable of things.

What about your own sins?
Those things you do when no one is watching.

Some are victims of circumstances.
Many times, we are quick to boast of how we overcame our struggles in life and judge them for what they are doing.

We fail to acknowledge the fact that it is just by the Grace of God that we didn't end up like them.

Some live this life because of the sexual abuse they experienced when they were young.

Others are going through serious demonic manipulation.

Some have addictions they can't seem to free themselves from.

Some genuinely need assistance...but we fail to see their need.

We need to ask the Holy Spirit to grant us discernment to know those who need His touch.

Our service must be to all, especially those outside the church.

When praying for the lost, don't forget to add them too.
Let us be mindful of this: as a Christian, you have a role to pay.

Father in Heaven,
In all things, we give You thanks.
We thank You for these lives.

Jesus, please mend every broken heart.
Please fill up the void in their hearts which only You can fill.

Daddy, they need You.
Give us boldness to reach out to them.
Grant us discernment, that we may sense those who genuinely need Your touch.

Father, You alone are our Peace.
Grant them Peace Daddy.

Wholeness, restoration and healing are what we ask from You.

In Jesus' name!

Amen.

God bless you so much!

It's still #SHARINGLIFE.

Don't stop sharing life with these people!

Day eleven: The Authentic Hgh

This morning, I was pondering over a video Tabitha Brown posted on instagram  a few days ago ( link here ). In her video, she was talking about how people were always sending her Dms to tone down on how much she speaks of Jesus in all her work. She said a lot of meaningful things which you will find in the link I have attached.  My Quiet Time last week Friday was sourced from Timothy 4:8 which reads " For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things,  holding promise for both the present life  and the life to come. " It was a super "Aha" moment for me because I found a scripture from the Bible which assures me that I will profit a great deal from my resolve, to live for God, both in the now life and in the life which is to come. How cool is that?!  Now that the premise for today's post has been laid, let me tell you what the authentic high is all about. This is going to get personal... it is the only way I can properly relay the mes

Day One: One Good Turn Deserves Another

It feels so good to come back to writing,  especially for this series! The 40-day reflections have been the most intensive seasons of my writing life. It is beautiful to observe how in the beginning, the writings seem rusty and then as they days go by, they begin to flow freely.  After such a long break, I wouldn’t be surprised if this becomes the experience but hey, miracles happen every day! Praise the Lord! Today, I am sharing on kindness: There is this saying, “ One Good Turn Deserves Another ”, which in simple terms means:  if someone does you a favour, you should take the chance to repay it . If you live by this proverb, you may do good to others with the expectation that when it is your turn to be shown such kindness, it is reciprocated in an equal or greater measure.  I’m not sure that’s entirely a good posture for us as believers. I’m reminded of the piece of Scripture in which Jesus asks us to particularly do good to those we know will be unable to repay us

February 17th - ...but We used to be friends....

Have you ever felt tears well up in your chest so hard and heavy that you know you could easily burst into heaves of tears in any given moment? I had one of such moments today.  The first reading at Mass today was from the Book of Jeremiah 17:5-8 and there is a portion that talks about how accursed is the man who puts his trust in man and in his own strength. It talks about the dryness such a man encounters and how this man will never see prosperity.  I was convicted by this Scripture because it showed so clearly that the condition of my heart has been like one of such a man. Why am I saying so? Aside getting my second degree, I am trying to be intentional about my Spiritual growth and about music ministry in church. Basically, I am trying to be intentional about becoming.  ("Becoming" is the expression I give to my quest to attain my fullest expression as His daughter).  ...but that has just been the problem... "I am trying to become"  Having th
