I don't do things because I just thought of something crazy to do, hahaah... I do things that i believe and I am sure God wants me to do. It is the process of learning that I am not in control of this little life of mine but I am not a robot as well. God gave me a choice. I could have chosen to stay and choose a carefree and free and easy lifestyle. But I know for the fact that my life is not mine at all. It was never my choice and my decision to be born in this world, that very thought will already give you a clue that there is something, SOMEONE so Big and Sovereign behind our birth. God created me as an adventurous person and a fighter for a reason. It's also not an overnight thing to figure out who we really are and what ourself made of. I was created with such adrenaline flowing in my veins for a reason, of course thank God I figured that out, the next step is for God to show me how to divert that natural adrenaline in my bloodstreams and craziness and adventure spirit to something worth doing for the kingdom of God. Again thank God, He made me want to be who He created me to be. I love how He created me. I am exactly who I am now the way God planned it from the very first day..😊 The day He had me in His mind before He even put me in my mothers womb.
I know! I am crazy most of the time! I'm a risk taker! I may seems to be brave but believe me Most of the times I am not I am just so in love with my Jesus. So who are you? (Picture with mama Maria the day after we had an intense deliverance for her.) #calling #passion #IamWhoIAm #FollowerOfChrist #CreatedToWorship #OneGod #OneLife #Onepurpose Today marks the end of my jourNey with the 2nd book of Samuel and hello to the new beginning with the 1st book of Kings, but what's very significant in todays' message of God is how amazing that He led me to read about DAVIDS' MIGHTY MEN when today is the scheduled day for me to meet the leaders for Q4 planning then towards the end i will never forget Davids' answer in 2 Sam 24:24 about him not offering something to God that cost him NOTHING. That's the same thing when we follow Jesus. It's gonna cost us something. Last night I was pondering and praying as I received an email from one of Iris Base and seeing the email I told myself, "This is not easy, this is not simple, this will need much preparation of the heart and all sort of and I NEED TO COUNT THE COST!" It's gonna cost me my life, the life that i have right now, the mission life i already adopted and embraced through the years and it is tough!
Thank You God for always letting me know that You know. 😊 Thank You for comforting me with Your Words. As I listen and worship in the song "Simple Gospel" of United Pursuit before reading and on and on these words hits me, "I use to think that I could box you in But I’m laying down I want to know you, Lord I’m laying down all my religion I’m laying down I want to you know you, Lord I’m laying down all my religion I’m laying down I want to know you, Lord I want to know you, Lord I will rejoice in the simple gospel I will rejoice in you, Lord" "LAYING DOWN OUR LIFE IS NOT very easy but when Gods Love hit us it will not be that hard to return back this life we thought our own and invested on to its rightful owner. It's gonna be painful to withraw something we thought we work on but Jesus paid a full price long time ago in a much more painful way to redeem back our life and hand it over to us and leave the choice to us to hand it over back to him. What's gonna be your choice? #bookofSamuel #bible #saturday #morning #journal #devotion #conversationWithGod #cost #countTheCost #message #thankful #passion #calling #IAMCALLED #ponder #FathersHeart #David "For the most part in our culture we don't do the right thing; we do what we feel like doing.

When I was starting my walk with Jesus as a new believer I already have a spiritual discipline of talking to God first thing in the morning. Today, I wonder and so thankful to God ever since the beginning I have been journaling my prayers to God and my devotion and nobody told me to do so, I just felt that writing down prayers makes it more solid, it's not just an uttered prayer in the air. Now I look back and see my old journals and it made me laugh! Silly Me but amazing what it did to my faith. Along the way of the busyness of the ministry when I started serving in the leadership in that course I reasoned out and told myself, "You can always talk to God in any hour and things started to get swayed and I knew something is not very right. True, I do talk to God like every now and then..😂 I sound crazy sometimes but there is still different with that discipline I have and sunddenly i missed it when I watched war room. I brought it back and thank God I did. It got deeper when I was in Africa! So, Intimacy with God has always been what my Father has been teaching me from the very beginning. I believe in my heart I knew that the world can take all that I have, ministry, title, position but not the intimacy that I have with my Father. It will feel like operating a machine without fuel. It's empty. ❤️🙏🏻...
I love reading His word and talking to Him when I wakes up in the morning because my principle long time ago is I don't want to start my day going out in the battle not prepared for war, go out without direction. The voice of God is our compass in life. Start your day with the direction pick up from the word of God.😊 don't just get a verse but linger in the presence of His word. I don't want to go without hearing Him, what He wants me to remember in a day to day basis... Good morning world..😊 #FathersHeart #devotion #reading2samuel19 #bookofSamuel #bible #wordOfGod #David #reflections #morningthoughts #journal #PSALM23 #prayer |
