Hello!
It's day thirty-six of our forty-day retreat and reflections.
We are reflecting on student repentance today.
Why this topic today?
Maybe it is because this is where I find myself presently.
There was a time I couldn't help but ask myself why I sometimes felt out of place in school.
I do not mean to say that I am perfect for I am in no way close to perfection.
It's just that after entering into a relationship with Jesus Christ, I realised that my life wasn't mine in the first place, to be living anyhow.
It also took a good friend of mine to re-echo that into my mind when it seemed like I was losing focus.
I am calling all of us to repentance because I sense that it is about time we realised that our living on this Earth has nothing to do with our desires or our pleasures but because of the Primary will of a Sovereign One.
We search our hearts and we see the decay that is hidden in the deepest depths of it...even in the Christian student-body.
It is sad that we find ourselves in school only to compromise on our values and principles which have been passed down to us by godly parents, teachers, and shepherds.
Only God can save us.
That is why He never stopped calling the Israelites back to Himself.
That is the same reason why he sent His Only Son, Jesus Christ, to bridge the gap that was caused by sin.
It gets difficult.
It gets tough.
Sometimes, you just want to bend a little bit.
I believe without a trace of doubt that it is only Jesus Christ and His Holy Spirit who can make us the true salt of this Earth and light unto our peers and colleagues.
The Holy Spirit is very able to mold us into God's best.
Repentance comes with a conscious decision and also by guidance from the Holy Spirit through contrition.
You can go back to God if you make up your mind to.
What do you say?
Are you willing?
The Holy Spirit is ever ready to help you out my dear.
God bless you!
It's still #SHARINGLIFE
Don't stop sharing life!
