I Confess, I am Weak

Why do I have to tell someone about my weakness when they don't know about it? Why do I have to humiliate myself in front of everyone while they think that I am all perfect and am a good girl? Sure, I have a bunch of skeleton in my closet and I would die if someone finds out about them because I am not proud pf them. So, why should I blow the trumpet?

There is something that I am doing and I know that is wrong, I don't want to let anyone know about it and I would honestly die if people found out. It makes me unhappy, I want to quit but, who cares because no body knows? Obviously no one! (as if I knew)

This is how I used to be. I had issues but did not want to confess them and I would say that  what's the point for me to confess because no one knows that I am this bad person in the planet? I did not see the point! In the process, that shameful thing I was doing became a habit because it was comfortable and I did not show that I want to get rid of it. The stronger it stuck to me, the angrier and defencive I would be with it. And I tell you, it killed me. Big time!!

As it was comfortable, it started giving me reasons to be well with keeping it. I was falling but I was too proud to admit it ( Oh! My God, I can't believe how foolish I was). There was a voice at the back of my head that was telling me that I was falling but my silence was more dominant over the positive voice. In the sight of people I was that good girl whom everyone wished their daughters, sisters, friends, colleagues and girlfriends were like me. And all that was a lie! It was not me!

I came to realise that I don't have to speak to man (as in flesh) but there is Someone who will never comment back, judge or humiliate me, as those were things I was afraid of, but He will listen to me, comfort me and restore me again. Isn't it awesome? I decided to open my mouth and let Him know my situation. Oh! I cried and I became very ugly. Guess what? He did not say a thing to discourage me but He did the exact three things above. How relieved I was!!!

If you feel that your skeleton is not so pleasing, don't talk to man, he might comment and break you, judge you and destroy you. Go to God as I did, He does not act like man and He does not think like man....He is God.

Do it, you won't be sorry! That's the sweetest relief you can ever find.

Stay Blessed

Ah!!! What a Day!

There are no words to express what a day it was yesterday. As the members were entering the church, you would just, sence the difference of the spirit they embraced. It was so beautiful. They were in spirit and you would detect it from their greetings. There was no chit-chatting like they used to do, they waited for the Holy Spirit to begin His beautiful work in their lives.

Going to the Sunday School; the children were in spirit as if they understood what was the Holy Spirit. Ah!!! What a Day! They were so excited and were all in a very disciplined manner. The aromatic fragrance of the Holy Spirit was so perfect that it filled not only the hall of the church but also the small chambers of the children.

It was so beautiful when the Holy Spirit took over and did His wonderful work. Many were baptised and the church was made into a different church- the church of the Spirit. Many received the confirmation of their baptism and it was the happiest moment of their lives. Tears of joy were falling from the cheeks.

The glory of the Holy Spirit was shinning on each and every one's faces afterwards.
I have got nothing to say further but: "Ah!!! What a Day!"

Stay blessed!
