Surely!

I was made for love. I was made for You! I want to be with you Lord. Take me away into your presence. Surely theres a cloud in the distance, surely theres a heavy rain coming but I can feel you coming to me. Through this cloud I cannot see, through this rain I cannot see but I know you are there. Lord you will arise over me. I'm desperate and empty without you. Your fearfully wonderful. Your simply beautiful. How I love you. My heart is overflow because of you. You are glory and searchable. Your reflection of you is all I want to be. Here I am Lord, I give to you my life. Come and break my heart. Consume me God and make me yours. Consume me with your heart. You are everything for me. All I want is you and all I need is you. Come fill me with joy! Lord you are full of compassion. Thank you for everlasting life.

Have you ever...............?

I read it on a website and really loved it. I even ask my self...............


Have you ever seen somebody who laughed at other’s problems but ended getting caught up by the same misery?
Have you ever, in a rainy season, tripped yourself as your legs effortless danced with the beats of rain-drop splashes?
Have you ever caught your eyes blinking back the tears you couldn’t cry?
Have you ever, amidst your friends, laughed away the same pain that brings you into tears at night?
Have you ever put your health on the line and talked with your friend the whole night away only because they needed company?
Yet, have you found the same people turning their backs on you when the roles were reversed?
Have you ever procured enough strength to tell the people who love you the most that as much you love them back?
Have you ever felt complete exhaustion in your head as everyone in your college talks you down?
Have you ever noticed that guy sitting separate in the corner, with nobody there to listen behind his silence?
Have you ever stood up and held with the word of someone whom everybody disaccords with?
Have you ever questioned the proof behind charges of wrongdoing onto someone?
Much the same way, have you ever stepped back from spreading a hot rumor that could give you a name?
Have you ever apologized before they found out you were at mistake?
Have you ever actually admitted yourself being wrong?
Have you ever felt altogether bewitched by the trances of hurting thoughts ramming your head as you pass within the crowd?
Have you ever stumbled upon an old friend of yours, wherewith a thousand memories of your childhood rolled back?
Have you ever took a pain while delivering a ‘hi’ ?
Have you ever took a relief when it was time to say ‘goodbye’ ?

Cinderella from ashes

Thank you for loving in my frailty and not merely in my beauty. I am a Cinderella whom you have drawn from the ashes. You have clothed my nakedness and cleansed me of every issue of blood and sin in my life. Forgive me for taking the beauty You have given me and looking for affirmation from this earth when I already a covenant of splendor. I renounce all my strongholds and pursue YOU alone. Thank you for the forgiveness, mercy and tender care. I am overwhelmed by the beauty of your mercy and the depth of your love. I set my heart on you, for you are my one true Prince.

I'd rather be with you

My hearts loves




"All night long on my bed I looked for the one my heart loves; I looked for Him but did not find Him. I will get up now and go about the city; through its street and squares' I will search for the one my hearts loves." Song of Songs 3:1-2

Suddenly our eyes would lift from our small world of self, and we would take a fresh look around us. We would stare deeply into each sunrise and sunset trying to catch a glimpse of Him. In it we would glimpse His goodness, and that goodness would become ours. We'd stare in wonder at the stars of the heavens revealing in the awe of His majesty and in turn a portion of their brilliance would rain down upon us.
The realization of His love changes all. It has now become personal for we are His and He is our. We would receive every good things from His hand, we'd take it all in and hold it close to our hearts, letting it love us with its loveliness.

You have stolen my heart!


"Free yourself from these chains and be mine! For "You have stolen my heart, my sister, my bride; you have stolen my heart with once glance of your eyes" Song of Songs 4:9

You've stolen His heart.... now steal away to Him and let Him steal yours. Open your heart to the love and the truth you will find and let it become alive in you. We have been kissed by this world and it left us in tears...but now the Prince calls and promises better things for those who respond to His love.

How much more pleasing is your love than any other in this world. Let your spirit dwell in me. Let your power anointing overflow in my soul and I will not stop falling in love with you. That i will lost without you. You become my stronghold and whom shall I fear because no one can separate us from your love! Jesus... You are my everything.

Let me love you more

He first loved us!


"We love because He first loved us." 1 John 4:19

We can love because God first loves us, making us feel safe. He is faithful and we are all first on His list. We have an assurance of His love because He loves us before we even glanced His way. He even went as far as to record it in a book for all to see, not just scrawling it on some piece of scrap paper that eventually is thrown away. He declares His love to be everlasting and He backs it with the promise of covenant. " I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving kindness" Jer. 31:3

He says "I have loved" as though to say, I decided a long time ago to love you and it is never going to change. Therefore I have reached out and done everything within my power to draw you to me. To capture your attention, I've spared no loving-kindness so you would know it is settled with me.

my thought for today!


Lord, make me a person you want me to be. I know that your always with me but i ask more of you. To hear more of your sweet voice. Break my heart the things that break your heart. Captured my heart Lord that nothing can steal my heart. Place me under your wings and embrace me with your love like a blazing fire;like a mighty flame. Melt me and wash me like a purest gold mighty God.

"And this is my prayer, that your love may abound more and more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless until the day of Christ, filled with the fruit of righteousness that comes through Jesus Christ - to the glory and of God." Philippians 1:9-11

Praising God!


Praising God in any circumstances, waiting patiently on Him and enjoying His presence on a daily basis are all practices cultivated by our level of trust in God.

The Lord is teaching me how to enjoy the journey which i learn to love it..... We let little things that come to distract us from our daily walk and our daily worship of the Lord. The Lord has been teaching me not to worry about trivial things that He is perfectly capably of handling.
