Let me start off by saying that 2017 has been so far one if
not my best year ye. Started this year with the announcing of my very first upcoming
book, and along with many other things I’ve learnt from writing my book is
patience as well as finding my purpose. As a Christian, purpose is the ultimate
thing we should pray for and ask God to reveal because we are well aware that
we were not just created to just exist but instead we are here for a bigger reason.
And so, I don’t know if we have more than one purpose on the earth but am glad
to say that I have found my first which is inspiring people through my
testimony.
One of the other things I had hoped to achieve this year was
growth in my spiritual journey and let me not lie to you, it has been HARD.
Countless times God spoke to me about spiritual growth but I was out here being
comfortable with where I was at, I mean, I was serving in a ministry at church,
reading my bible (sometimes), praying/fasting, and building good relationships
with my fellow Christians, that was it right? (I thought to myself). Till later in November this year, I had one
of the most yet to be life-changing revelations. I got to understand that the true
model of communication with God and I got to learn that indeed there is a two
way communication process between us and
God, though I had heard before that God did indeed communicate to us, I
had never completely understood how that worked till I read “Conversations with
God by Neal Donald Walsh” and oh my Lord, speak of clarity this was the most
clarifying experience I had ever had about anything in my life. This happened
Mid-November, I was on holiday in Mombasa being sun kissed and whatever but yet
again a bit frustrated because am that type of person who likes to understand
things fully all the way through and man did I have a lot of questions. And
it’s in that moment that I practiced what I had read in the book (the book
talks about how God says that he communicates with us through Thoughts and feelings)
one thing that hit me though was understand that all this time, I have been
communicating to God, if you are one of those people who get lost in their
thoughts like I do, then you know what am talking about. And so this whole time
I had been communicating to God and I would immediately snap out of it because
I thought it’s my ka little brain working things out. And I so I started
questioning and thinking about stuff in my life and getting clear answers about
them and in that moment I was over joyed at this new level I had just opened in
my spiritual journey (if you love video game y’all know the joy of opening a
new level? that’s how I felt). I now had this personal communication with God
without asking people here and there on their take/opinions on certain things
because now I had understood that, you know let me ask God and answers came
throughhh yo.
So, Currently am in a state where I am making a lot of time
in my day-to-day activities to be alone because I want to spend sometime in God
presence and share a dialogue with him and so far God has pin pointed areas in
my ways of living, my behaviors and in my friendships that need revival/change
and commitment, and he is guiding me in ways to do so but in order for this
communication to be effective, I have to build an even deeper relationship with
God in order to understand it clearly. And so my brothers and sisters, who have
committed your life to Christ, seek for a communicative relationship with our
lord because we are all clueless in this journey of faith and we need guidance.
Prayer is the answer and together with faith we will reach a level at which God
is completely and fully in us guiding our step. Be blessed
