Ok. This isn’t easy to swallow. The low profile Christ lived, the history, the friends he chose.  But these are the graduated filters of those who would choose Him.  If you choose Him- life isn’t going to be honky dory like the one you have now. But life isn’t merely bound in this lifetime. There is more of it. There is more to it than this,  surely. How do I know?  Am not sure. Who does anyway? But I have experienced joy unspeakable that won’t go away.  Problems, issues, temptations, mistakes and sins are still in me.  But when I look at the cross I have a realisation of a new chance in life. This is what He did, what he died and rose again for- Hope.  To live, love and start over again sin after sin. I will sin again, like before for so many countless time.  But sin can never put me down anymore, sin can never depress me.  Sin has lost its grip on me.  Bec I am assured of Grace: when Christ rose again from the d...

Life’s situations can be good opportunities to evaluate our priorities in life and reflect on the faith we have in the Lord. God certainly knows exactly what we are going through and He is very familiar with what we are feeling.  It is natural and human and, unload freely-to ask: “why” (this and that happened) and: “when” (these are all  going to end).  Nevertheless, He couldn’t love us anymore than His death and resurrection on the cross-no one and no other can do the same.  And no one and nothing can change this fact.  He came to serve, NOT to be served. There are things and issues we choose to carry and put on ourselves. But His invitation is to share these, or altogether lay and leave them on His feet.  Most of the time we choose to carry them on our shoulders like a cross that we walk around with- the same cross Christ died on; and His rising has exonerated us from all guilt and shame of different sizes and form- and It’s called freedom.

Life’s been busy and time consuming- time wasting that is! It has been good. But as the saying goes...Some good things never last. After awhile I came back to the throne of worship.  One morning I asked “Can you keep my heart and mind focused in you alone?” The answer was “If I did that, then you are a robot. I created you in my image, and my spirit is always available at your own assent. I have equipped you with the highest intelligence, emotions, instilled power and control over yourself to make you what you are. To develop your own individuality. You have all the freedom in the world to choose. To live. To feel.  I have set you free. You have all the ability to choose. When you choose insensibly, things can get messy, difficult and overwhelmingly confusing. There is always the second or alternative choice that is not mine. I already said choose what’s best for you, what’s lasting.  Choose my way. Choose life.  I don’t force my way in to yo...
