Day thirty-five: What do you do when your mind is filled with so much?


 I had myself in a state where it seemed like everything in my life was craving my attention... all at once.

I mean, how do you cope when you have so much going on and it seems like you just don’t know what to do, where to start from or where to turn? Actually, that is not true. There is a solution on what to do and there is a place you can turn to… Jesus Christ. You start with Jesus Christ.

Beloved, there is a truth about the Secret Place of the Most High...and it is REAL !!!

I noticed that the reason I was struggling was because I hadn’t sought the Lord in that Secret Place. The more time I spent outside the Secret Place, the more I lost clarity on a lot of issues, the more I lost sight of what mattered most and the more I lost myself trying to put all the pieces together.

You see, after you have tasted Jesus Christ in His Secret Place, it is impossible to carry on in life without it. The point is, the level of peace and wholeness you receive in the presence of Jesus makes all the difference. I haven’t seen His face yet but I do know that the more I seek Him in that place of solitude, the more our hearts are joined together.
It is a beautifully unexplainable thing…

There is an intertwining of my spirit with His the moment I seek Him in the Secret Place. I begin to seek His will and I lose sight of what I thought was important. 

His interests become my interest.

My soul enters a state of wholeness I cannot explain. The moment I lose that connection by making other tasks and people priority, the more I lose myself and the more things become a mess. Oh Lord, have mercy!

So beloved, whenever you feel like your mind is filled with so much, ask yourself whether you have sought the Lord in His Secret Place. You will be surprised where my Secret Place. But my friend, it is better to have one than not have at all.

Jesus Christ IS Home. Indeed, Home is truly where the heart is.

I love you and God loves you greatly!

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

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

When I started Sharing Life, my intention was to put out what I knew Holy Spirit was teaching me. This was what He asked me to do. It wasn't to parade myself as an all-figured-out girl who was on her way to becoming a preacher.  It was a journey of life I was learning and one which I had received the go-ahead to let the world in on.  Somewhere on this road, I was seen as a "Woman of God" and put on this high and mighty pedestal which wasn't me.  And you know what, in such moments, it is so easy to get carried away by the accolades of men to the point where you lose sight of your journey, where you are and decide to serve the expectations of others... thereby neglecting your own journey and growth.  After taking a very long break from active writing, I have on numerous occasions attempted to start writing again but the fear of being put on that pedestal has stopped me so many times.  I am a child of God. I am a girl on a journey. I don't have it all fig
