Steps and Drifters

Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires. Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit ~ Paul (Galatians 5:22-23)

The Christian's calling is a simple one- to come (Matthew 11:28), to follow (Luke 9:23), to keep in step (Galatians 5:23) with the Holy Spirit.

Simple, not easy (Matthew 19:23-24) but with God, it is possible (Matthew 19:26). That is why we have been called to keep in step with the Spirit, to watch Him show us the way and lead us to the Kingdom of God.

If we are honest, we would acknowledge that we drift. I had been drifting and was doing so for months, until God chastised me, and showed me the danger of drifting, twice.

So when God opens your eyes to the state of your spiritual walk, if you had been drifting like I was, thank Him for opening your eyes to see where you are. Not everyone gets another chance.

Hebrews 6:19 reminds us of the anchor for our soul. Hold on tightly. Keep your eyes fixed on Him. Walk in step with the Spirit daily.

And pray like the Psalmist: But my eyes are fixed on you, Sovereign Lord; in you I take refuge—do not give me over to death (Psalm 141:8)

This is a new song I heard on Sunday that reminds me of taking steps with the Spirit, because not actively doing so leads you away from Him.

Remembering the Never-forgotten

Remembrance Day It is not merely a time to recognise the fighters it is one of many, with its stings of loss and chills of disbelief heightened The "here today" could be the "gone tomorrow" And the parts of lives that were filled with you now remain bare Losing you has made us stronger Empowering us with a new hope. Without it, we crumble Your courage so contagious In your heart of love and war Still, beating on Rest in peace now, You never have to fight again For you, L.A, forever in our hearts

The key of G.

Set the tone and I'll sing to Your song, with our heart-beats to the same rhythm, my will and Yours in Harmony My mind auto-tuned to Your desires, Notes of love and genuine dedication my life, my walk in Your symphony Lyrics of Grace, chords of Salvation Choruses of freedom and victory All in Your Key of G.

The Year of 20

I turned 20 two months ago. This means I am no longer "a 19-year old freelance writer" as it is written on my blog's mini-bio. I have noticed now that it was a sunny day, just like this one, and a day I felt drenched with love. Again, just like this one. The year of 19 was slightly awkward and laborious for me. It involved a lot of "finding my feet" and striving to achieve goals before the big clock struck 20. Many of these goals cannot even be remembered. They were not solid and more importantly, they were not even relevant to my purpose. I decided to take a blogger's break to see if any other talent would spring up, itching to be used. Something else did and I realised that I am actually quite good in telling stories with pictures. Be mindful that I am not blowing my own trumpet, I am only grateful that in 19 , a buried treasure was dug up. So here's 20. I have made a personal resolution for this year- to let go and let GOD. I know it is not...
