I feel a sort of quietness in me as I write this..
I feel as though I’m at the beach, and I can hear the waves , feel the breeze go deep into my skin and so my skin begins to react upon reflex to give goosebumps . I feel within me that I do have a message to pass across to you who reads this, and although I’m not worthy, in all my imperfection and with all my scars and confusion, I find hope that I bring peace to you at the other end of this device- Sharon Boye.
I wrote this about a week ago and now, i know and i am certain that this is indeed , for you , my dear reader… read on with intent and receive this with an open heart.
Hear , the thoughts of a confused man whose mind wonders until he finds rescue …..
“I’m like a man lost at sea , I feel as though I know not where I go , drowning with my hand stretched above water, searching for help from an unknown source, but with the hope I receive peace when I get saved, I hope.
Who do I go to ? Where do I run to ? Life is catching up with me as I’m no longer a little one who is as free as a bird to spread it’s wings and fly, without blemish , free of excuses and no worries of life problems… enjoying each day as it goes and laughing till my rib hurt without a glance of my problems facing me in my tranquil mind.
Oh, how life treats us.
Will I ever be happy again , will I ever have peace , will I ever laugh again, genuinely this time and not worry seconds later, or was all that just a phase life offered me at some point in time and now , I simply must carry myself with a fake smile on my face all day long pretending to be happy when in me , I’m truly broken, but still remain hopeful that I get saved by an unknown source, a source that is able to carry me all the way through and not flinch when life troubles comes their way . Is there such a man , that can save me from this human race I run, that has the solutions to my every problem ?
Will I get the chance to be me once again, to just be happy, at least ?
I feel alive again as I hear this name, JESUS JESUS JESUS….. But why do i not have this peace that I yearn for just suddenly ? What more can I do to have this peace, to disengage this clamour In me ?
To think that at the end of it all , at the end of all these pain, is death were mourning shall occur is an unimaginable thought I wish never to cross my mind .
When will all these pain elude me then ? Am I not better, a dead man with no worries ? ”
In these thoughts, Christ responds and says …
“NO! , MY FRIEND, YOU ARE NOT !
I hear you, I see you , I’m here.
Listen carefully , read patiently, as I say ” Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. (Matthew 11:28 KJV ) I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.
(John 12:46 NIV) that everyone who believes may have eternal life in me.
(John 3:15 NIV) for In him was life; and the life was the light of men (John 1:4 KJV).
It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man( Psalms 118:8 KJV) and so
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones (Proverbs 3:5-8 NIV). Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do everything written in it. Then you will be prosperous and successful. Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go. (Joshua 1:8-9 NIV ) Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid(John 14:27 NIV ).
See, I am doing a new thing! Now it springs up; do you not perceive it? I am making a way in the wilderness and streams in the wasteland.
(Isaiah 43:19 NIV )”. ”
When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, “Who do people say the Son of Man is?” They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” “But what about you?” he asked. “Who do you say I am?” Simon Peter answered, “You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God.”
Matthew 16:13-16 NIV
Do you believe this ? Do you believe He is the Messiah ? The son of the living God ?
