The closest Encounter

Relaxing on my bed thinking about certain news I heard, I tend to wonder why some people always think they have a right over another persons life. These persons forget that we all have individual life to live.
Recently I have come to understand that life is a city we build. Some think of life as a string of events- one following another like pearls on a string. But the past remains with us and decisions made often follow us; bad decision dog our steps and haunt our mind.
Life is a city with streets and structures all built by our decisions. There are beautiful parks and tree lined lanes. This is always the part of our life that we show others. It is what we want them to see. But like any city, there are dark alleys. In those place, we store the things we are ashamed of, things of embarrassment. This is where we store our regrets, doubts, fears and sins. So why judge someone else's dark alley?
Those dark alleys we travel alone hoping no one will ever catch a glimpse of them, but it is there we are most likely to find Jesus waiting for us. He strolls the dark roads, walks our dead ends, pass through our emotional and spiritual ghettos and He doesn't feel sullied by them.
Past indiscretions do not disqualify us for his love so don't let anyone write you off. We are not an embarrassment to Him. Jesus is a hand on-savior. He doesn't mind getting his hand dirty. He will turn the dismal past into a glorious future.
Jesus has a private meeting with each of us, not for others to see. Just you and Jesus! When men judge your past, look to jesus who doesn't mind giving you a hug no matter how dirty you are!
Your comments would be welcomed.

Hold On...

Our experiences in life changes just like the weather conditions. At different times we are faced with either pleasurable or harrowing conditions. Sometimes we experience heat-warming success, at other times we experience heart-rending  failures. Sometimes there is much joy and laughter, at other times there is much sorrow and sighing. Sometimes we bubble with life and health, other times we are over taken by sickness. Sometimes we enjoy prosperity with plenty, other times we endure lack and hunger. A lot of persons change with their changing circumstances. When the going gets good, they are elated and highly spirited, but when they get hit by an ugly circumstance, everything goes down completely. They lose the glee and gladness they once had when everything was favorable to them.  Most Christians do same. They love and obey God, go to church and do all manner of religious activities when things are all rosy, when there are no challenges, and turn against Him when thin...

LETTER TO MY TEENAGE BOY AND GIRL 2

My dear, I believe that you enjoyed the last letter I wrote to you and you have also seen how important that letter is to your future. Well, just like I told you the last time I wrote to you, I am here to complete what I started. Among many other things, I would love to remind you that you should not be confused when you see your opposite sex, behaving in differently in a relationship. Lack of understanding of the difference between a girl and a boy, makes a lot of your friends endanger their lives.  You should be able to know what the guy wants from you and you the guy should know what the girl wants from you. God created you all differently and reasons for doing this is best known to him. But I believe that God love variety and as such decided to create us all differently instead of a robot. Lifestyle is another practical reason why a lot of your friends fall in love today and fall out tomorrow. Please I would love you to learn early that you can do things that will a...

LETTER TO MY TEENAGE BOY AND GIRL

My young boy and girl, you should make it a market of your time to discover the origin of love and   friendship, because it is only a mad man who eats without seeing the face of what he or she is eating. Love and friendship comes from the most high God. He is the inventor. His intention for creating love and friendship is to help mankind. God invented love when he realized that men cannot be at peace without his love being with them. My young boy and girl, what you feel for the opposite sex is not love because love is far bigger than mere feelings. At this sensitive point in your life, think of hoe to build stronger relationship not how to make love; LOVE is created through the act of relationship. Love is developed through friendship. My little girl, permit me to also say that sex is not a form of payment for someone loving you or doing something for you. There are many of your pseudo friends whose mindset and thought is to have sex with someone that they help...
