DAY THIRTY-ONE: CALEB HAMMOND

Hello and welcome to the 31st day of our forty-day retreat and reflections.

Today, I want us to take a moment to reflect on the lives of those people we know God brought into our lives to give us a turnaround.

I am talking about those people whose presence in our lives have brought us back to Christ and has given us a purpose for living.

Today, I dedicate this post to one of such persons.

CALEB HAMMOND

God is the only one who knows how my life would have been had I not met this Man of God.

A true definition of selflessness.

I have learnt a great deal from him.

Working for him and with him has been a great privilege and honour.

His life has always been about purpose.
Finding our purpose in life and moving in the light of the knowledge of that purpose.

He is patient.
He believes in moving in-step with the timing of God.
Not rushing, not moving ahead of God's plans...It is worth admiring

He loves.
Like 1Corinthians 13, never giving up on another, always hoping and trusting.

He has shown me what real discipleship is with his ability to strive to live like Jesus.

He practices what he preaches.

He is treasure to many.

I could go on and on and on...

This one thing I ask, that his fellowship with the Holy Spirit will grow more and more intimate.

The world waits with eager expectation of your manifestation Man of God.

God bless you abundantly for being a good teacher.

An Invitation to Intimacy

I gave my life to Jesus in St. Louis Senior High School. I am very sure I had gone forward for altar calls many times before that. But St. Louis was different. I was conscious; I was aware of myself and my environment. I knew I needed God in my life. To be honest, the issues of life drove me to take God seriously. A friend had had a dream about her and me and the moment she shared it, I knew I had to let go of the old garment and take on the new. So, I joined the Catholic Charismatic Renewal (CCR) meetings and that was where my life changed. That encounter led me to a great relationship with the Lord. I read the Scriptures (my favourite was the Book of Psalms because I used that to pray a lot). It was in St. Louis I learnt I was never alone (why do you think I support Liverpool FC so much?). I learnt to rely on Him alone. When I entered the University, I realized a newfound freedom and observed (by the Grace of God) that if I didn’t take my spirituality seriousl...

Go With God

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 f...

30 things I love about you: pt. 10-12

Hi babe, 6 more days to go. We thank ABBA for everything. 10. I love the way we resolve conflict. I truly appreciate the posture with which you approach conflicts. Thank you for showing me that your posture is always to do what is needed for us to move forward. Thank you for showing that your goal isn't to find who is at fault and then crucify the person but rather to identify how to build from there and keep building. It took me a while to know this and thjs knowledge gives me the peace to resolve issues with you. I pray ABBA'S blessings for you, always. 11. I love how you give me room. You don't hold me back. You push and keep pushing me to strive for excellence and to be the best. Thank you for pushing me to start Doux! Thank you for pushing me to take my place. I encountered a man, whom I thought I loved, who was more concerned about me putting my ministry and dreams aside to pursue his. He never encouraged me if it didn't fit his "ideas". One of the mai...
