"My Saving Grace"


Let me begin with an 8th verse poem that came as a cornerstone of my post today...not mine but shared by an anonymous writer, or a poet. More of an artist for me.


All the water in the world
However hard it tried,
Could never sink a ship
Unless it got inside.
All the hardships of this world
Might wear you pretty thin,
But they wont hurt you one least bit
Unless you let them in.

If you have been reading my posts periodically or regularly, you know that numbers and seasons are embedded in my content. Such numbers as # 1,3, 7, 12, & 40. You may have an inclination as to why these numbers symbolize something. Biblically, they constitute infinite meanings as they reveal their immutable significance from Genesis to Revelation in the Bible.
For example, Today is March 01, the first day of the month and it is common knowledge that it is good to start this day with something positive and it may as well be a smooth running cycle for the whole month. It might be superstitious to others but there's no harm in trying to
be energetic the whole month. So, here I am trying very hard to write a post. It's been almost a year since I haven't posted anything and for that, I apologize. I could say I got caught up with Life's misgivings but that would be an awful excuse. None of us gets a free card from the reality of experiencing sorrow, disappointment, loneliness, doldrums, and burnout, just to name a few. Nowadays, "Life is really hard and it's harder when you're stupid." 

I hate to say that there's too much callousness going around--a very cruel disregard for our peace, to our heart's longing. There's deception in our minds as we are a part of unraveling culture besetting the very structure of our lives. It's not just disturbing but dehumanizing us, as God's people. We are God's masterpiece, created in his own image but why do we let ourselves fall into the devil's wiles? Why do we do things consistently that break the heart of God without thinking about the ramifications of our actions? Are you conscientious enough to even think that it's your life and that you can do anything as you please? Absolutely not.
 God has indeed given us the free will to make choices but in those choices that would reveal your character as a good person or a satan follower. And that you can only know when you read the Word of God...There's nothing in this world worthy of being left behind when the rapture comes. He is coming soon. We better be ready when Jesus comes. Every day, I am excited more than ever. Soon, I will be transformed into a heavenly body with a heavenly mind and that's infinite joy in waiting for that to happen. Everything will be eternal. No more sorrow, no more pain, and no more sickness and no more death. Rev.21:4
God be Praised!
