Raised From The Dead!!!

Dressed pretty with bandages that wrap my wounds and dead and broken dreams, People dread to unwrap these bandages fearing the mess and the unpleasant stench, They mourn the death and convinced its all over, Where no one else can see or can reach. Deep cried unto deep, A cry for life. Jesus you visit me while everyone else said its too late, You call me by my name, Your words breathe life into this dead being, You unwrapped the messy and stinking wounds that none want to catch a glimpse of, You are the balm that healed my brokenness, You alone loved me and cared to rescue me from my grave clothes, Your love covered the multitude of death, sin and brokenness You clothe me with a garment of praise Your love is true life!

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...

From wander to wonder

What do you do? When you wander aimlessly And the fire you once had was quenched You are misunderstood even by your own Rejected and cast away You feel lonely and isolated You feel you don't belong or can't connect And deep inside you feel empty and spent Tired yet going on from one day to the next Your past mistakes haunt you And an enemy that constantly attacks and doesn't back down And a world that constantly tempts you or makes you feel that you are not enough And your thoughts that should be a friend but act like a foe instead It haunts you with a past that makes you see the sins and a heart that's scarlet red Meet me "Great I am" in my wandering in this wilderness like you met Moses And transform my I am's Where mundane turns to musing And despair turns to delight Where wander turns to wonder Where wilderness turns to worship As you show me a bush burning and yet not consumed Reminding me you have inter...

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...
