God's Unfailing Love

Today I share on a few things I have been learning.

Ø  We all have a story to tell and a wound to heal, a deeper glance into these reveal a beautiful reality.

My short life has been marked by some unprecedented heartbreaks, having to say good-bye to some friendships, made terrible mistakes, sunk into shame, guilt and emotional pain. In these moments, I have known and felt God’s warm embrace, experienced His deep love and mercy and I have found healing. I don't know what your story looks like but, you are uniquely poised for this very moment, to share an intimate part of God's character, this the place of untold stories, the place of healing rain, it’s a sacred ground.

Ø  It is okay not to be okay. In my ‘not okay’ moments I have known  God as my safe place, my home, my shelter, my strong tower, my song, the oxygen in my weary lungs, my protector, my strength and shield, my hope,  my God

I have learnt that when I fall, I must always get up again! Always confess up again! Always pray up again! Always live up again! Always look up again!  James 4:8, "and He will draw nigh to you." God has always responded to my repentance, He has always taken the next step toward me after I "draw nigh."

Ø  He is the Lord of the restoration, He has turned my stories and wounds into beautiful realities, in my ‘not okay’ moments, He has breathed in me His Grace, and caused me to exhale His love and Mercy.

When the wild locust has scavenged, and I have walked through dark valleys, He has restored me. Instead of ashes, He has bestowed crowns of beauty, instead of despair He has clothed me with a garment of praise, instead of shame, He has given me a double portion, instead of disgrace, I have rejoice in my inheritance. His love for us, we cannot comprehend.

I pen this to encourage everyone, wife or mother who thinks they have been to hell and back, there is hope in Christ Jesus. 

Loads of love
