WITS END






On days you wake up not entirely low or high; Just there, you start thinking about what your purpose in life is. Then you suddenly realize......"I don't know, i really don't know why I'm awake"! You contemplate going back to bed; but that's not working. Then some maniac thoughts creep in and you quickly brush them off and scream out loud into the thin air " I'm grateful to be alive; for where there is life, there is hope"!
You are your wits end and honestly have no desire to try anything. Deep into all of these; you stumble upon a picture that reads:
" you don't always need a plan. Sometimes you just need to breathe, trust, let go and see what happens."

So spot on!!!! That's it. That's what I'm going to do. Sit back, relax and watch God work!!!! (Paraphrased). Yeah, yeah, easier said than done! Well....I have good news brethren. Check this out.

        “In the same way the Spirit also comes to help us, weak as we are. For we do not know how we ought to pray; the Spirit himself pleads with God for us in groans that words cannot express. And God, who sees into our hearts, knows what the thought of the Spirit is; because the Spirit pleads with God on behalf of his people and in accordance with his will.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭8:26-27‬ ‭GNTD‬‬

When all else fails and you don't know how to begin the prayer or can't seem to find the voice to pray, just ask for help. Help from the holyspirit. If you are baptized in the holy ghost and can speak in tongues, do so. Maybe you are too drained/weary to do so, simply repeat this as many times as you can "Holyspirit, please, help me, pray for me". I hope this realization gives you as much joy as it gave me.
Here's a song to enjoy while sitting back!!! :) "All consuming fire" by Jesus Culture. As always sing along with meaning.

Have a glorious week Jesus army.

ALL I NEED IS YOU





I wake up not knowing what to do today
But I wake up with a knowing....
I'm made for greatness,
There's so much I have bottled up
I see life through so many different eyes
It's hard to maintain eye contact
There's a constant struggle within me
More like, there's a war within me
I'm trying to separate these thoughts, things I see
Give them form....
It's harder than I thought
I don't know which to let out first....
Maybe I'll just let it out anyhow
And hope it makes a little sense!!!!

Sometimes, I have things to say but don't know how, other times, I have nothing to say. No matter the situation or the 'time', one thing remains, I need God.....I always will. He's my everything and He just makes all things/situations clearer and better.....somehow. I really don't know how He does it, but then again, I guess that's what makes Him God.
Enjoy this beautiful song by hillsong, "all I need is you". Be blessed as you sing along with meaning and a deep sense of longing for God.

Have a beautiful week; beautiful people.

STOP, WAIT AND LEARN.....




So, I've been down this road before,
Yes, this street is familiar
How, oh how did I ever find myself back here?

The last time I was on this very lane
I prayed desperately to never come back
So why, oh why am I here again

I don't need this.........again
I can't deal
I used up all my strength the last time

Could it be that I missed out on learning something then?
Help me see what I need to see...
Gain the wisdom I am destined to gain from this,
Dear Lord I pray.....so that I'll never wander down this lane
Ever again!
This has to be it Lord!
Please help me see through your eyes....

There are sometimes we find ourselves back to some place we once prayed desperately to get out of. We just don't get it. The battle is supposed to be over. What could have brought us back here. Well...a wise person once told me if I ever found myself in a situation like this, then it means I have forsaken God and He's trying to get my attention or I forgot to learn the most valuable thing on this not so new battle field. In other words, we only repeat a lesson if we fail a test/exam. God being His merciful self, is a God of a second chance. Some of us, He knows, can't handle failure.
If you can relate to this, hang in there......pray to learn what you missed the last time, ask to know God's heart. Pretty hard and frustrating. But it's all the choice you have. Either this or you drown in depression. Here's a beautiful song by bethel music - "closer". As always I implore you to not just enjoy the rhythm but sing along with purpose.

Cheers beautiful people.
