Hello!! Hi Everyone!
Reflecting on the motivation of beginning this journey of writing in this platform, am reminded that the idea was to create a media channel that could provide more positive news compared to what we have been feeding on the major media channels all over the world. It can be toxic to the mindset of an individual who listens/views negative or discouraging news day in day out. And so I get back on this track after a considerable amount of break, revisiting the vision of EsperanzaMaishani sure did give me some light on how am to progress. Here we go!!!
I am personally, a nature lover. I love the color green. The sound of a waterfall. The view of a sun setting on the horizon of an ocean. The orange sun rays shining through. The birds chirping in the trees. All this is beautiful to me. Creation. With all the debate out there on the universe origin, I believe that God is the creator. He reveals His power in all the magic found in the creation all around us. He deserves all the praise!!!
I write very much aware that those who will have access to this post may be going through various seasons of their lives, varying in the dynamics. Some may be in a planting season, others harvesting, some mourning, some dancing, while others are weeping, others laughing their socks off…..Ecclesiastes 3:1-8
A Time for Everything
3 There is a time for everything,
and a season for every activity under the heavens:
2 a time to be born and a time to die,
a time to plant and a time to uproot,
3 a time to kill and a time to heal,
a time to tear down and a time to build,
4 a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance,
5 a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,
6 a time to search and a time to give up,
a time to keep and a time to throw away,
7 a time to tear and a time to mend,
a time to be silent and a time to speak,
8 a time to love and a time to hate,
a time for war and a time for peace.
I do not write assuming that I understand every detail of every person or have the answer to every problem. No, absolutely, No. I am writing saying that I know where we can all get our answers in all our seasons. Yes, We, me included!!
There is one who not only created the heaven and earth, but time itself. He was not created but creates. He is Alpha and Omega!! In Him, all blessings flow. John 1:1-3 says..In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 2 He was with God in the beginning. 3 Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.
God is real! How do I know? Well, for this post, I will say the creation is evidence enough. Just look at it for a second.Let us step out of our seasons for a second and view the nature near you. The air, the skies, the trees, the water, the animals, the grass, the snow (for some of you), feeling of the wind blowing by. It is beautiful indeed. May we not miss out on this beauty. It speaks. Speaks loudly to us. How I pray we will all listen!
Romans 1:18-20 says:18 The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of people, who suppress the truth by their wickedness, 19 since what may be known about God is plain to them, because God has made it plain to them. 20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse.
I will end this post by encouraging all of us that God, our Father welcomes us with open arms in whatever season we may be facing. He is more than able to sort out everything that may be going wrong. He is real! Very real! Very Able! 1 Peter 5:7 says Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you.
AMEN and AMEN!!
