strength & grace

relationship with God shouldn’t be a routine. it’s not wake up pray worship bible and pray again.

There'll be a moment when you realise you're 27 when yesterday you were just 17; and you wouldn't be able to tell how a decade passed away and your life got divided into before and afters. The fury of youth will subdue and nothing will really change but everything will feel different when you look at old photographs and blurry videos taken on cheap mobile phones. Scents will remind you of childhood and certain friends you don't talk to anymore, hangouts will become reunions and mom's burnt pie will become the best food you ever had. And I know on some days you won't be able to show anything of those 10 years but I hope you remember to breathe, and let go of the knot in your chest. I hope you go out in the sun and live a little, because tomorrow is 37.

“I am a different person to different people. Annoying to one. Talented to another. Quiet to a few. Unknown to a lot. But who am I, to me?”

O, will you fail to use so great a privilege? Fly to God, tell Him all your wants. Use Him constantly by faith at all times. If some dark providence has beclouded you, use your God as a "sun;" if some strong enemy has beset you, find in Jehovah a "shield," for He is a sun and shield to His people. If you have lost hour way in the mazes of life, use Him as a "guide," for He will direct You. Whatever you are, and wherever you are, remember God is just what you want, and just where you want, and that He can do all you want.

“Some cry with tears; others with thoughts.”
