In to me, you see!




Before your father and mother conceived You 

I conceived you

You were with me in my heart, my very imagination and my mind

I kissed you with my breath in your mother's womb

I sealed you to be mine forever before the foundations of the earth 

I marked you with the Spirit 

You didn't choose me but I chose you to be mine forever

Simply because I made you with love

I am the very breath in your lungs 

The blood that flows through your veins

I have hemmed you and surrounded you within and everywhere with my love

You cannot escape my presence

I know your wanderings, and I know where you hide

My love is present with you in the deepest pit of your despair and disappointment

And I will not leave you there

But I have raised you from the pit to the power of my faithful and steady love 

To proclaim and touch people with compassion and grace

As I touch you every day with my love to bring you life

My words chiselling your flesh into submission to my loving authority to reflect my love, truth and glory 


Crucifying and denying self and enthroning Jesus to your rightful place in my heart as a King 

to submit to You, my Bridegroom, my love

for you have captured my heart 

Even grave couldn't hold You down 

You have conquered the grave with your all-consuming love

You are waving the banner of love each moment in the grave of my heart 

and reviving my heart with your all-consuming love

You are becoming my deep desire and joy 

I long to behold you and to be held by you to be like you 

And have You as my ultimate prize and reward

To sit with You in your presence, to drink deeply from your love and feast with you 

In the secret place where it's dark and unknown 

But that's where You are bringing life into the darkness

filling the emptiness with life 

and building an Eden with streams of living water 

Resurrecting to new life everything You touch- every wound, every scar that none can touch

A home- a sanctuary- a dwelling place 

where you and I are one

until only You remain 

Consuming and burning

Until you see yourself in me

Even death cannot sting me

Its power is dead as my sin  

for you swallowed death with your love to bring me home safely into eternity

Your Spirit pursues me passionately and beckons me unceasingly to - Come 

You have won my heart with your love 

and your Bride joins in the melody and responds- Come

Inviting me to a beautiful love song that will echo into eternity

The Design

 I believe that there is a God who is good and He created us with purpose. He loved us so much that He was compelled by love to create children in His image who are good, filled with love and compassion. We were created for love and to go beyond our SELF. I am convinced of this, though I fail daily. When I was younger, someone very dear to me failed in a relationship and my little heart was broken. When I saw the person suffer the consequence I believed that they deserved it. As a kid I was unaware of my self righteousness. Time flew and when I grew up, I failed in a relationship. I was torn with condemnation, guilt, shame and judgement. This time I failed. I just couldn't take the weight of it and made a confession to a friend. I was so disappointed that I didn't see hope. My friend graciously explained that God is merciful. When you truly repent He forgives.  I have always believed in God. As a child I wrote letters to Him mainly out of frustration about my situatio...

Holy!

 Recently I registered myself on matrimonial sites to see if I can find a potential match. Unfortunately, I saw few fake profiles and I felt unsafe so I deleted my account. This is a platform meant for people to feel safe so they can pursue a life partner, yet some people come with different agendas. It's called Holy matrimony for a reason. It was God's idea when He created Adam to give her Eve for it was not good for Him to be alone. Adam responded with joy, “At last!” the man exclaimed. “This one is bone from my bone, and flesh from my flesh! She will be called ‘woman,’ because she was taken from ‘man.’” This explains why a man leaves his father and mother and is joined to his wife, and the two are united into one. Now the man and his wife were both naked, but they felt no shame. Genesis 2:23‭-‬25 NLT He burst into beautiful poetry of praise. It's Holy because they became one. Despite the nakedness they felt no shame because they were united. God designed a perfect world,...

Longing for forever!

 Being in the lockdown, I have come to appreciate the stillness, something I am not used to. Life gets so busy and it's like a monotonous routine. I almost felt like a hamster on a wheel. This period of rest has enabled me to slow down and appreciate the things I wouldn't notice because of busyness such as the birds outside my window, the sounds of them chirping every morning. Moreover, me wondering and reflecting as I used to when I was a child, I was so easily amazed at what I was learning. Growing up I somehow lost that and I feel like God is bringing me back to that place where I can be in awe of Him. In one of my conversations with my dear friend I mentioned- " Do you ever wonder why we say best friends Forever or I love you Forever? You know it's not strange that we long for Forever cause it is God who created us with that longing. In Ecclesiastes 3:11 it's written: God has planted eternity in the human heart, but even so, people cannot see the whole scope of...
