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!

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...

Day six: The perfect start

Waking up to pray has been extremely hard to do in the past few days. For some time now, I wake up in the mornings feeling more tired than I went to bed. And so although my eyes are open, it is a real struggle getting out of the bed. Initially, this morning, I was feeling bad about it. After a few minutes, I resolved to pray from my bed. I did that… and ended up sleeping at a point . It was better than nothing. That moment taught me that the perfect start is the one that happens from exactly where you are. There is a reason why God wants this relationship with us: aside from the fact that it is a love thing, God also knows that we truly and sincerely cannot make it in this life without Him. He Is not looking for a perfect daughter neither is He searching for a perfect son. He Is perfect and His perfection is enough for all of us. I remember those times when I would tell my spiritual father I was struggling to pray. He would say to me: Why don’t you ask the Lord to help you? Why d...

Daughter of the King by Jamie Grace ft. Morgan Harper Nichols

[Verse 1: Jamie Grace] They tell me I'm too young Tell me I'm not beautiful I'm not good enough I'm not worth anything at all They tell me I dream too much I got my head in the clouds Maybe I'm just hoping For something better than what I see now A world where every girl knows [Chorus 1: Jamie Grace] The Maker of skies, the Maker of seas The Maker of every beautiful thing He made you, He made you too The mountain high, the river wide He tells the sun when to set and rise And He made you, He made you too You're a daughter of the King So tell me, what does that make you? [Verse 2: Morgan Harper Nichols] So put your shoulders back Don't you know that you're beautiful You don't gotta tell 'em that, no Just walk around like you know And if you see our sister (if you see our sister) Looking like she forgot Like her dreams got crushed You better remind her [Chorus 1: Morgan Harper Nichols] The Maker of skies, the Maker o...
