IF IT HAS NOT BEEN THE LORD

Sometimes, there's nothing to say. Nothing at all😭. You are left with - "If it had not been the Lord "😭

I've been going through a group mentoring sessions with Prof. Williams Amponsah, of University of Georgia and he gave us a tough assignment. The assignment demanded we take stock of our present reality, honestly.

Sometimes, it is better not to lie to yourself. To be as honest with yourself as possible, and to be blunt, telling yourself the hard truth. Tough Self-love.

I took stocks of the dreams I've had, what I've been able to achieve so far and the journey ahead.

I stared my present reality in the face, all through last night and it wasn't surprising that I woke up with depressing thoughts.

I didn't want it to affect my joy so, I started listening to Hallelujah Challenge Album by Nathaniel Bassey, followed by You're gonna be okay by Jenn Johnson, Raise a Halellujah by Bethel Music, then I find you on my Knees by Kari Jobe. Before I got to Love Lives Here by Kari, I was speaking in tongues and my heart was lifted. Then God's words and His promises started coming to me.

Kai. Abba's Love.

Who art Joy that thou art so mindful of her?

I say it all the time, God has been the only CONSTANT thing in my life. His dependability is not questionable.

I don't know how to explain how it is in my heart. I sincerely have a faint heart when I think about people who can't turn to God when it seems like they have exhausted their selves trying to make sense of their lives and what's happening to them and around them.

It's so refreshing to know that you can always run to the fountain of life to be refreshed. It's so potent and surreal.

Dear Friend,

I may not know what you may be going through right now.

I may not have the right answer to why those things are happening to you.

I may not have any form of help to render to pull you out of that place.

But dear, I introduce to you someone that happens to know all, understand and can help you go through it with His strength, or solve it outright if He chooses.

His name is Jesus and He is faithful.

You can talk to Him now. He hears even the faintest whispers.
