REFLECTIONS



Wide awake, not that I can’t sleep, but it won’t be that comfortable on office chairs
Wide awake listening to jazz; Kenny G’s classic collection, mood soothing, quiet reflections
Settling the mind down to think and recount on so many things: Life, experience, expectations, and challenges, bad habits, etc.
I cannot help it but be thankful; it’s been quite a journey
26years in the making and still a work in progress, people still call that young, but time flies
And that’s the part that scares me somewhat, that time is fleeting and age creeps up slowly
Anyways, I’m looking forward and ahead to New Year, thank God for now
I pray His grace to keep me till tomorrow, like a great man once said “it’s been a long walk…”
Indeed it has really been, and I cannot begin to recount my chronicles in the small piece
A recap might just put things into perspective; my family’s great, my job a blessing and still a lot of better days ahead, my life; still got much to learn, love; still searching, God compassing
What can I say? The Lord’s been good beyond everything that has or is happening so far
It suffice to state without a shadow of doubt and an unsure wavering of the mind, that I’m thankful
I’ve lost a family, endeared ones, and historical Immortals but it is not to question why it happened but rather, it gives me the attitude of graceful appreciation, and the pursuit of purpose
Perfect is not what I am in my actions, but it’s what I try to achieve every day, which brings me to the conclusion that it is not something that I can achieve by myself
I am flawed, and I seek salvation
I may not be worth what I am now, I might not deserve the blessings that have come my way, but the Man up there thinks otherwise and I don’t pay mind to the chatter around
2013 has been progress and learning in my own sphere of life, and there is still more fire to pass through
I am just certain as always I’m not alone
Been absent from writing, long time now… this Christmas just came as a source of inspiration
Wide awake at 4am in the morning pouring thoughts….

CALL OUT YOUR JOSEPH

Bible characters have always being a very interesting topic. I get to read and immerse myself into the story and lives of the various characters God used to show forth His glory. This post is directed to Christians; youths and adults alike, and also to anyone who is willing to be touched by it. I do have a thing for Joseph though. Yeah Joseph…... Joseph was a lot of things: He was young, in turn innocent and naive. He had a dream, which turned out be his vision and destiny. He was loved by his father, envied by his brothers. He was sold, he slaved, and finally he rose from the ashes and became a model for Christian youths today. My focus on his story is when he found himself in the lair of the seductress/temptress. Many youths/adults alike today will never pass on sex. In fact it has become a standard for being a man, so whenever one has the chance to prove him/herself worthy to their friends, they heed its call. Well as for me I beg to differ just like Joseph did....

GOD, LOVE, AND RELATIONSHIPS

I’m no expert in relationships, but the ideas most people have about it are most of the time very baffling, especially when it comes to the aspect of love. Now I’m not taking a general stand or view of it, my perspective is from the Christian view. Yes I mean Christian relationships! As a man, I want a God-fearing lady who is virtuous, intelligent (able to spark a conversation with on politics, ICT or general issues). The same may go for a Lady (add financial security to the list) who’s waiting for her prince charming to come. Though some profess to be Christians, yet a lot of time their lives and relationships reflect a purely human ideology and understanding of love. How can we say we understand love and leave God out of its definition? God is love, and He expressed it to us by sending His Son Jesus Christ to bear all our sins so that His perfection will be placed on our account through His sacrifice on the cross of Calvary. Instead of accepting God's definition of l...

A PRAYER FOR CHANGE

I don't how many of you feel this way inside. I don't know what spiritual battle is going within you, the truth is you are not alone. We all are in this together, like it or not, believe it or not, we all have our spiritual battles to contend with. A battle of self actualization, meaning, and divine purpose. We definitely need Divine assistance. It takes a lot for man to realize his mistakes, but to change is really a great deal I’ve been bad to myself and to the people around me I know what I’m to do, but doing it is hard I have played all my cards and got nothing That’s why Father I’ve come to Thee for one thing I have prayed, you’ll say not hard enough I have fasted, you say not with my heart I do read my bible; you say it’s always in a rush This time around I do not want to do it alone I can’t do it by myself; One thing I do ask of you Heavenly Father I need your COMPASSION. My spirit’s willing but my flesh won’t commit I have tried and...
