Father's Love

The position of a father means that the personality has a child. It might not necessarily mean a biological one, some are adopted, and some are children to a father by the virtue of learning one thing or the other. It doesn't matter where what makes a person a child, the fact that the person has impacted a part of himself and it's yielding results, he is a father.

I won't want to add to the countless definition given to love, but Father's love simply means a strong affection from a man to his children. This kind of love helps a child to be encouraged, appreciated, and chastised (when necessary) Proverbs 3:12. The father's love is a rare one. Not everyone has the privilege to be close to his/her father, but the ones that experience love from a Father are happy and strong.

So why is this important? It is because not everyone understands or has experienced this kind of love. And though we might not have the privilege to be loved in this way with our earthly references, I'm here to introduce the personality of someone who is the Father at all times. He's LOVE Himself and He expresses His fatherly love every time. He the FATHER of all fathers. The Everlasting Father - Christ Jesus.

  I have a few things to say about Him. He needed a standard, He made Himself the standard. HE IS GOD! What a majestic figure! We have nothing to deserve Him, yet he made himself available for everyone. Ready to love, impact, examine, encourage, and chastise. What a FATHER! The one that saves also helps out in a time of depressions, discouragements, and when we need someone to lean on.

What and who can separate one from this love? (Romans 8:35) No matter how bad and strong it is, we are even more than conquerors because of this Father. The Father's love experience is boundless and all it requires from our part is our FAITH in His ability to do and give good things.

The Lord loves you, even in your down casted moments when no one is around to lean on, He's got you and won't let go of you for a second. At your most sinful, He is most merciful. You are redeemed by His love. The world might hate you, but know that you are a child of the Most High God(1 John 3:1). Just believe and He'll come through for you.

SHALOM!!!

You Are Mary

The first Mary was not the only lady named MARY which was recorded in the Bible is found in the new testament. She was "a virgin", which means she wasn't the only one who was a virgin in her time, but she found favor with God and was chosen to bear the Holy seed of God. Mary, the highly favored, blessed among women and the Lord was with her. That was how she was seen by the Lord. Her assignment was to carry the seed of God, deliver a son, and He shall save His people, rule them and His kingdom is forever. Her question wasn't what's in it for me? It was HOW? What's the plan? The answer was the Holy Spirit will come upon you, the power of the Highest hover over you. Therefore, the child you bring to birth will be called Holy, Son of God. It's all planned by God, yours is to align. You are Mary, but whose seed are you carrying? Definitely not Christ Jesus. But what result will the seed you are carrying bring? Are you aligned to be chosen? Are you recept...

Wrap Ups

Endings are better than beginnings. Sticking to it is better than standing out ( Ecclesiastes 7:8; MSG). The end justifies the means and starting could be great, but there is nothing as fulfilling and satisfying as the wrapping up of a thing with strength and grace. It is better not to start anything at all than to give up halfway. If we must start a thing, then we must follow through to the end. It builds discipline, consistency, and focus. When a person sets out for a journey, the thing expected on the way can only be assumed but not accurate. Which makes the destination and finishing well a necessity for greatness and forging further. This year has been amazing and some many things were unexpected, but regardless of the emotions experienced, God is good! When we thought it was over and there was no way we will make it, He showed and made a way. The most important thing when we are wrapping up anything is Thanksgiving. It could have only been God. If only we c...

God's or Abraham's?

   The moment the word "children" appears, what comes to mind most the time is the result or outcome of a process. Especially when the psalmist was describing children in Psalms 127:3-5. My eyes were open to seeing results as children. Definitely, children have fathers. Let not go into defining children ( you can always read my post on CHILDREN), But my concern is that sometimes we (Christians) are referred to as Abraham's offspring and at the same time, we are called the children of God. How are we children of God and also Abraham's? It is possible that we are the offspring of both God and Abraham (His friend). We are considered as Abraham's offspring when we believe (Galatians 3:6-8), because the first to exercise Faith in God was Abraham and we are called his children because we are doing exactly what he did which was counted to him as righteousness(John 8:39) - FAITH . So we (believers) are the re-produced version(children) of the Father of Faith - Abraham...
