On this particular morning I layed in bed meditating…not complaining but dialoguing and wondering what I was doing wrong…i thought of throwing in the towel…. instantly the word hit and I was smiling. The word is Solitude*
The past few months have been redefining for me…it’s been a place of Solitude. I’m learning to lean totally on God; ‘Trust’. ...aargh!...the ‘Trust’ part has become a daily walk …am learning to live by faith practically and not by sight, I’m learning humility and walking in love….
I’ve come to know God as Yahweh! “I AM” God who is whatever I need per time…(In the beginning was the word and the word was with God and the word was God,  ….all things were made by him; without him was not anything made that was made… John1:1,3)
Daily scriptures become real to me…(to live is Christ and to die is gain..Phillipians1:21)( If only in this life we have hope, then we are of all men most miserable..1st Corinthians 15:19)
God is not just shaping us for now, he is shaping us for eternity….(And we have eternal life and this eternal life is in his son , he who has the son has eternal life.1st John 5:11)
I’m learning that the key is fellowship…(Abide in me and I in you for you cannot do nothing without me.. John15:4…Abiding is the key…)
In this season…..i am learning to trust God as God, no ambiguity, no drama…accepting the word as it is, no trying to figure out with my head…
So we all know that the battle is in the mind; it takes a constant walk and experience of God to be able to withstand whatever toxic thoughts the devil drops in our minds. I tell myself “If he brought me out of the miry clay and set me on a rock to stand, then whatever the issue is will be resolved” God is Super faithful.
Amidst my needs, wants, desires wishes and the process of each season, I have learnt to trust the faithfulness of God. I have experienced that God is the one who spins everything in order and weaves every part of our lives together; I have experienced the God that puts it all together for our good and to his glory. Yes there were and would be days I don’t understand a portion or a part of it all, but it always works together for my good.
I’m learning to be still in the midst of the storm…….I am learning God dependence and God confidence.
In Solitude am learning not to be lonely…lol (they that are with us are more than all of them put together 2nd King6:16) My One Audience..Yahweh! and yes My one Defense.. Yahweh!
In Solitude I am learning shedding…call it more of pruning…all of them excesses; them attitudes…
I’m learning to walk with God precept upon precept; line upon line…everything will fit together.
I’m learning to Focus. That word cannot be overemphasized. Focus!
Trusting God through this process that I will daily conform to the Image of his son Jesus….
As he is in heaven …so are we here on earth.
Eyes have not seen; ears have not heard, neither has it entered into the hearts of man that which God has prepared for those who love him…..
That the man of God may be made perfect. Thoroughly furnished unto every good work…;

I Went, I Saw and I Conquered

Approximately 10 days from now I’ll be on my way out of India, and I just want to share some funny/major experiences. After I cleared from immigration and their likes @ d Airport, coming out with my luggage, I met this guy who was obviously Nigerian, and sure he was either a cab man, or someone who wanted to make quick money that early morning. Well, I ignored him! Am sure u are wondering why; well the manner of approach was terrible, he spoke in pigin, was too confident, and not gentle @ all. A few steps to a phone booth and I meet an Indian guy, who is gentle and sweet( don’t get nasty tots) he approaches me with a mannerism close to professional, but good enough to get a customer for the day. My call didn’t get through, and he drove me to a hotel, where I was charged 2,600 rupees, for less than 6 hours. Okay that was my first encounter of Indian 419’s……lol, as I later learned it was pretty expensive for the sort of hotel. Well I guess my expectation of the Institute, and the country...

What makes me think I have an obligation to keep writing and posting on this blog…well the answer is simple it’s my blog, and it carries my name, I created it and thus I have a responsibility to keep it functional; well if I decide to stop writing now, it won’t make sense to have created the blog, and taken all the pain to write, and post…..This is the way I view man and God. The other day I got into a pretty nasty discussion; we were talking about purpose, and this guy got so worked up when I was asking him about purpose. He asked me why I was asking him what his purpose is, when thousands are hungry; people do not have homes to sleep, poverty and wars going on….. At this point I paused, I had never tot about it that way. All this while it’s been about me and purpose, I saw purpose as a personal thing, I’ve never tot of asking a hungry child what his/her purpose is, I never tot of asking the beggar on the street what his purpose his. Well Deepak m...

Psalm40:1 I waited patiently for the Lord; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry.

--> Its been a busy weekend, and I do not know where to start this post from; will just right about start from here............mama just walked into my room asking about a friend(and yes I answer shortly to cut the discussion..lol). Its been a waiting period for me and I am still waiting. In the last post I said I did not know answers to questions such as , where, who, when, what, why?.... Well for most of it the answer has been “Wait” I hear in my spirit time and time again, “be still and know that I am God” I hear “ Trust, Believe,Obey,Persevere” Waiting has never been something am very good at, so in this process I find myself falling and rising, I doubt and believe again, and my faith seems really scanty, at this point I ask God to be God. In the course of waiting I have heard God assure me and remind me of the infallibility of his word; but will I wait till the end(Grace). The truth is God's word never changes, it remains the same. There are things I cant explain, wh...
