No conditional christianity

Today, I've made a commitment to God not to succumb to conditional christianity. Conditional christianity says, God...you can use me except in this and that, it says only send me here and there but definitely not that other place. Are you catching my drift? God does not want that at all, its either you are with him or you aren't, black or white. No grey areas, no lukewarm allowed in His presence.

I choose today to devote my heart, soul, mind, will, strength to Him. Easier said than done for sure. God does not expect perfection, rather He wants permission to be the perfect one in you, to work through you to make you a vesse that He can pour through. Your weaknesses are His stage to show His strength to others. Embrace the journey, accept to wak with Him in weakness or in

Commitment calls

So now that I know the next step with my journey with God, how can I be disciplined enough to trust and obey? How do I muster strength to completely let go all control and Be Still knowing that He is GOD, the Alpha and Omega!? At the end of the day, I am in awe as to how patient God has been and continues to be.
My mission this week oct 7-9 is to spend time in prayer. Thats it. May it be 15 min a day or 45! Who knows. I want to hold myself accountable. I write it here because it s a way to do this......

My Words to You

a little spoken word...


Let your Words rest in my Spirit
May they rise with each dawn
May they guide my path as i face each day
I wake at the sound of your majestic voice
and I say, let your words be my soul's food
May they be my heart's one and only desire
May they flow out of my mouth and draw my destiny
I hold on to your Words, firm and true
Promises never broken, faithful to the end


Let your Words rest in me....

what I have learned in the last 6 weeks

It is always amazing to look back and see what God has done let alone things He will do if I let go of my own issues =). It has been an amazing 6 weeks away from the hustle and bustle of life and I pray I maintain this quiet and childlike spirit of trust. It is a process and one cannot gain in a day nor in years..its an eternal journey. God has not called us to perfection rather to willingness to be made as perfect as possible, as close to His likeness as we can get. If I was asked what I have experienced with God most recently, I would answer and say His Amazing Grace. There is nothing sweeter than it! It shines through His love and covers me each and every day through each and every mistake. 

So here I am, I am saying goodbye to this person in me who was broken and lost and I say hello to a new and rejuvenated creation walking in grace and redemption. I've experienced His love at a new level, a level which plainly illustrates that there is never anything I can do to damage my relationship with God to a point where it cannot be restored. I sure hope that makes sense. He remains faithful to His Word and I cannot thank Him enough each and every day. So this blog is mainly to say that in all my 'wrongness', i still stand as the 'righteouness' of God through Christ, His blood and His grace. Thats it, those are my thoughts. Praise be to God for his amazing love, grace, for His redemption and eternal mercy
