Road to Self Discovery [Part 2]

-
If you haven't read the part 1 of this post,Here it is Part 1 .

I will just jump right into it.
After seeing the number of page views on the Part 1 of this post, it got me excited. We are all very similar ( whether we like to admit it or not); we are seeking for answers, solutions, a way out...
Just something, anything that can give us some kind of clarity to the uncertainties and silent struggles that we face daily.

To this I say, " Thank you God for Jesus", (For those of us who are Christians).
I confidently urge you to seek God and surrender without any doubts or reservations to his will. This is your first step to greatness!

Here is what I mean...


The moment you discover your purpose, you will realize that it is tied to your destiny in life, who better to go to than the Source (God Almighty); discovering your purpose/self may take a whole lifetime, and some may never find it. Until we go back to the source- which is God, all we will have is just a faint idea of what we " THINK" may be our purpose in life.

Personally, I am still growing in my faith... there's been ups and downs but i'm holding on. I am no "preacher", i'm just a firm BELIEVER that without GOD , there is little or nothing we can do about discovering who we are and/or what our purpose is on earth.

So before you start brainstorming on how to pin-point your talents and gifts, go first to the one who gives these things to us freely. Only then will you truly find satisfaction in whatsoever you find to be your passion, gifts, talents...

If I may quote the scriptures " The blessing (gift) of the lord maketh rich and added no sorrows"...

 Whatever God has given you as a gift or talent, it is designed to make you rich- ( this may be in wealth and or wisdom, or in bringing others to God, blessing others etc).

So go NOW, stop whatever you're doing and speak to your Father and he will ROAR in response to hearing from His beloved child. please do not hesitate, say this prayer believing that He is listening.

My Father,
Thank you for your constant Love, Mercy and Grace
Forgive me of all my sins, and help me stay away from it
that as the days go by, I will come to know you more and more
I come to you as a child, asking that you come into my life
help me to know you better, that I may know the gifts that you have given me
touch my heart, touch my life...I surrender all to you
Convict my spirit to yearn for the things above
that in the end, you will embrace me
and welcome me home
where I will be you for eternity
This I ask in name that is above every other name, the name of JESUS. Amen!


God will NEVER, EVER let you down. I dare you to let go of all your worries and live in peace and total surrender and watch Him uphold his word concerning your life.

Overcoming Fear

                                  I am going to be honest and say that I've had moments when I was so afraid and completely worried and unsure of where my life was headed and how I was going to survive. Fear was slowly becoming part of the worry sequence I had unconsciously allowed into my life.  The thing with fear is that, it stems from the logical part of our human reasoning. You know when things are out of your control and you are at the mercy of the possibility of the situation getting worse and you have no clue how you will survive. We are designed to survive, this means we are equipped with the ability to find ways to solve problems that are tugging at our joy and peace, and when we are unable to do this (naturally), the enemy takes advantage of our ignorance (lack of spiritual knowledge) and triggers fear and it all goes down from there if not intercepted by the word of God. I remember being stuck with thinking about all the things that could go wrong during a ve

Thy Will be done

"Thy Will be done ", These words have become so real to me. For the first 20+ years of my life, I never really gave my life any serious thought ( the irresponsibility of ignorance), I lived with such careless abandon, stumbled through bad decisions and failed attempts at figuring out what my life was all about, I walked through days  unsure of what I was going to do with my life most of the time. I sensed that I had something of value, however I was unsure of what it was and how to access it. I remember crying profusely wondering why things were not lining up for me the way I "thought" they should.  I was alive but was not living. I fell into the routine of life as expected - go to school, get a degree, get a job, settle down, grow old, die. But somewhere in this lineup I knew there were some items missing ,which was "become who God created you to be","impact lives", "be great".
