Redefining Relationships.

Good friends are gifts from God. Ask David and Jonathan. It is a good thing to have someone going somewhere same time as you, it is a wonderful thing to have somewhere you both are going somewhere and the same place at the same time and it is great to have people who don't necessarily have to go your way, but can connect, help and add value when you meet them.

If friendship becomes a burden instead of a mutual benefit, then its high time for a rethink, discussion and adjustment in the relationship or a personal crosscheck of lifestyle. 

One mustn't weaken the other rather they are to help each other to grow. It must be founded on and in Love. Love is a person with a personality - God and not just a feeling. 

The expression of God to man, man in Christ and man to other men is Love. The fact that you like the person isn't enough for a solid friendship. You must also have a definition and destination. What is your friendship all about and where it's leading to? 

What do you talk about when you meet? What value do you add to yourselves? What are your goals? What force is driving you? What is the next stage? What's the way forward out of a problem or situation?

It is time to question the foundation of previous relationships with people and cut off those that aren't helpful and rebuild a foundation for a fresh association of destiny helpers and builders, not a bunch of viruses that chokes every good and hopeful end. 

We have love as a commandment and a way of life, but those we associate with is a choice. The exact people needed in the journey of purpose and fulfillment can only be found when you know the giver of purpose(in the person of CHRIST JESUS).

A life with a glorious destination can only be found in Christ. The people and resources are also in Him. He connects you to the Father and His gift - the HOLY - SPIRIT. The TRINITY will be your source, foundation and power. 

With these I can assure you that your destiny is settled in and with Him. Redefining relationships is your part of the job - Grafting out parasites and fixing value-adding personnel.

 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...
