LIFE NOT SKIN

You deceive yourself when you accept the fact that everyone sees the outer you and should therefore give it more time than your internal.
Just like washing the external part of a water tank and leaving the inner part.
Or buying bottled water and trying to chew the plastic, then you throw the water.

You look into the mirror every now and then,
Checking details for your make-overs and cloth combo.
But you forget to look into the life mirror that created the physical mirror you know to show you your complete make-overs.

You have a pass to live as the sun (Light of the world),
But you choose to be smote by the sun.

You have the confirmed word to live by,
But you follow the confused world.

You acquire new things to edify your skin,
And you say to yourself,
Everyone would see what I just got for my skin.
Of course, we see that first.
You forget your life has more value
And of course, last longer.

Just like washing only the outer part of your drinking water tank.
Since u see just that huh?
Get ready for typhoid from somewhere.

Who are you without your skin acquirements?
If everything of yours by chance burns up, and you are left with you and you,
Who are you?

Remember Adam?
He didn’t know who he was after he realized he was naked.

Remember job?
He went back to being naked and still gave worship.

Remember David?
He dropped his kingly attire (which was as good as naked those days) when he was worshipping

Who would you become if you by chance turn out naked (without skin) today?

-Selah!

Matthew 3:8(MSG) “…do you think a little water on your snake skin is going to make any difference? It’s your LIFE that must change, not your SKIN!”

Still Feeling It?

I suddenly lost touch of the relationship.

I couldn’t explain it all, but I just started feeling off who I chose to be.

I did all I needed to do on an activity basis and not a relational one as it really is meant to be.

Tried chewing the word again.. But I found out I was only turning pages after pages…

Started praying out of fear.

Thoughts weren’t helping in any ways.

A whole lot passed through my head.

“Maybe I wasn’t His own like I thought”…

“Maybe the break I unconsciously took from my bible and prayer walks irritated him”

“Maybe my sins were just too red”

 

Now, I’m trying to catch the train again.

But it’s really fast.

Like! How am I supposed to run with this body of mine that suddenly added weight from worrying thoughts?

Thinking that The Holy Spirit just forgot he knew…

Think Again 2

Money.

We all run after you
And you act like you don’t know this
Everything the systems of this earth has established is still aimed at pursuing you
And we keep racing every minute
Race that many die in. No, most.
The ones that live are actually dead within, their real selves.
In this race, we lose our true identity.
Still, we keep running like we don’t know who we were before we took off.
Talking of identity;
Life didn’t give us a chance to grow and think.
Chill… No, we actually gave life the chance to handle our minds after birth.
We conformed to the world and obviously we became negatively transformed.
Then we lose purpose.
We all follow one “way”.
One old boring way.
Same pattern.
Producing similar innovations,
Murdering the mysteries in us that were freely planted to marvel not just others but us, the carriers, too.
Showing forth the manifold sides of the planter.
Sadly, we don’t even know where the mystery seed was planted or what it is, so how can we water it and watch it grow?
We do not even know who the planter of the seed is, we would have made enquiries.

Questions suddenly fill our minds that stir from lack of complete fulfillment after happiness based on happenings and events seems to be rounding up faster than we expected.

Deep questions.
That we try to think through and find reasonable answers.
But the world, being totally smart, gives us little or no time to think.
Then we join the race again,
The school life, the work life, the family life, the hustle life. The money must be made FAM!
Shallow living.
Same routines.
Depriving us of a complete life.
Emptying our eternal barrels.
Over-filling the physical ones.
The one we met here.
Really absurd.
The one we would drop sooner than we think?
We know this, but we still run.
Till we lose out of the main meal.
The main reason we were created–to know God and make him known–our purpose.
Then we pursue careers, a tiny fraction of the big cake we know nothing about, instead of being carriers of our creator’s purposes.

You can be a success in this cat and dog race.
But your success ends almost as soon as you go…

But your purpose. Your God-given purpose, here outlives you and remains significant.
You aren’t here to make or serve money. You are  to make impact which can only be found in your purpose in God.

Have you found purpose?
Have you found God?

ENJOYING THE MOMENTS

watch your step.

I’ve been going through lots of blogs, and with all I’ve seen so far, I decided not to be too serious in writing this post!.. I think! But still, I let Him take the wheel since it’s really not about me!!

I have just realized how sad most people feel after a while of giving it all to God, due to their peculiar situations. Most people put on their pretense button, making people feel all is happening well with them (me included before I wrote this post tho!!) So if you are like the old me, this post is for you. Enjoy!
