God does God's things.

-
You wake up in the morning, your head all made up of your plans, activities and targets of the day. Something else unfolds for you at the end of the day, at times very different from your plans.

You decide to take the right turn to your destination, nature or the Divine takes you the left turn.

You are attracted to that thing you long to have and it will feel like heaven once you get it, eventually you get it and you ask " what was so special?" "What Next?". 

You think you know it all in your plans but the Divine humbles you to knowing a little. The Divine has already planned the day or event for you. 
Isaiah 40:13---Who has ever directed the Lord or whom did he consult?
Job 37: 5-24---The greatness of God in creation. 

God's ways are never our ways. God's thoughts are never ours. He sees beyond what we can see.
In God, there is no Monday or Tuesday, no 6am or 7am, no January or February. God is the fullness of time. In him all exists. 

He is the Omniscient who knows more than we can imagine or ever know. That's why we can't explain certain events when they happen. 

So weary not when things do not unfold the way you plan. 
Know this that he is a GOD NEARBY. A God who has designed all for our good eventually. It's hard at times to understand things at the beginning, but later the Lord opens us up to understand why the delay or why we did not get what we bargained for.

Relax in your GOD NEARBY cos he is always there in every single event.

Body and Blood of Jesus Christ.

It is a privilege to have the Blessed Sacrament with us.  For love of us, before Christ departed the world, he thought of remaining with us to keep us and shield us in the Holy Eucharist, in the form of bread and wine. In our unworthiness, he chooses to stay with us to make us clean. What a love and opportunity given us.  We must search ourselves deeply and look out for that thing that hinders us from receiving Holy Communion. Nothing is worth this great feast and blessing. Nothing! Whatever it is, return back to the Eucharist. The food of life for the journey.  As we take the physical food so importantly, so too we must take the spiritual food so importantly. We ask for mercy for the times we received him unworthily. We ask mercy for the times we doubted his presence in the depths of our hearts. May he help us attain an in-depth love of him as we receive him daily.  May we become what we eat.

SILENCE: SEEDBED FOR THE SOUL

Silence is a language that mediates an encounter with the living God. For those who are trying to figure out where God is calling them to serve, some silent times will offer clarity about their desires and future. Our busy noisy world most times shut us from perceiving the silent beauty of things.  Silence is a language that enables us to understand what God might be saying and once that language is learned, communicating becomes very comfortable. Silence is your passport. With it you can break territories very fertile for you. With it, you discover the hidden treasures.  God constantly sends waves, but we need the Spiritual Antenna to pick up the waves. Silence is the Antenna. The waves are God's words and movements. Silence is not so easy but it is attainable with efforts and practise. Keep tuning to pick up the waves and you will see the Godseed in you develop and make impact in our society. Elijah discovered God in silent breeze. (1 Kings 19: 9-15). Jesus retre...

Stand up and Say No

Crime keeps increasing and morality decreasing Women are taken for granted at times for no faults of their own Who ever chose their gender when God was creating? Why then would some people go through trauma untold. A woman is a beautiful creature of God Meant to be a life-giver beyond words But are they now just sex-objects for fun Or they are to be help mates in all? She is molested and raped because she is a woman She is blamed for childlessness in marriage because she is a woman She is accused of the same infidelity her husband is guilty of because she is a woman She is seen as too hard when she speaks out because she is a woman. The world will be more beautiful if all women are treated right, Cos Life gives you back what you give to it. If women are treated with respect Peace and harmony will take its' stead. Women, say no to been silenced after sexual abuse Why keep quiet and the abuser thrives in evil The abuser grows in chains of abuse Inflicting more pains like a Devil. Eno...
