2005 din start well for me. but it will end well and i will have the last laugh.
the enemy nearly had a fieldday laughing his crushed head off anticipating my impending breakdown and overwhelming sorrow but i'm sorry (actually i'm not) for the anti climax but it just didn't happen. tadah.
inspite of the upheaval that happened, and his vain and futile yet purposeful efforts to set the stage for the great impending events to shake my humble little world, i'm calm. surprisingly. i din expect to. but He did. He expected everything and calmed with the peace that no human mind can comprehend. i am baffled myself.
and it hit me that He went to the cross even for this. even for this. yes, the sorrow that surrounded Him then was truly mine. the sin, the anguish. excruciating no doubt but taken away. so today i have the RIght to rejoice and i'm goin to use it. its a by-product of the gift of righteousness and its too good to put it to waste.
events aren't working to my favor but i'm not supposed to live by them anyway. besides, they're only too prone to change. for now, i'm strangely not too concerned abt the needs to be met, the disadvantaged situation i am in etc. yes pressing needs but its not because it hazznt sunk in. it has already sunk in so far and scared the living daylights out of me. but His name is jehovah jireh and i happen to be His. thats the best thing i've heard all day, and it wazznt delivered by a human voice. Thank you.
so now i gladly declare that i can rejoice even in the midst of these circumstances which are simply not worthy of mention. yes, not even on a blog that no one really reads.=) Jesus made it all possible. its possible to smile even when u're small and lost and hungry and tired coz the bible says u're blessed.even when u're persecuted, poor and yes...the list goes on but God has only one category for pple suffering from the above afflictions- blessed. (pls read beatitudes)and it will manifest during my time on earth.
ooh i just realised.beatitudes. its a BE- attitude. be what?be blessed. just be. because i am.(private revelation. nvm if nobody else gets it. hahahaha)
songs of countless promises
like kisses from heaven they fall
how loved am i
songs that take me to higher heights
such favor i know is divine
how loved am i
No guilt in life no fear in death
this is the power of Christ in me
from life's first cry to final breath
Jesus commands my destiny
No power of hell no scheme of man
can ever pluck me from His hand
till He returns or calls me home
Here in the power of Christ i stand.
