Do I know Him?

Do I know Him?
He Knows Me!
Scripture  
Mark 6:48-49 AMPC
[48]  And having seen that they were troubled and tormented in [their] rowing, for the wind was against them, about the fourth watch of the night [between 3:00-6:00 a.m.] He came to them, walking [directly] on the sea. And He acted as if He meant to pass by them, [49]  But when they saw Him walking on the sea they thought it was a ghost, and raised a [deep, throaty] shriek of terror.

Reflection 
Jesus saw that they were troubled, He was very much aware of the turmoil that they were going through. He is aware in deep detail how troubled we get as we live in this world, nothing about our lives catches Hom by surprise.
When He came, He acted as if He would pass by shows us that He is within our reach, we just need to recognize Him for who He is, lest our circumstances cause us to confuse Him for something else. When we receive Him into our boat, every situation calms down, He doesn't even have to say anything, His presence is enough to silence every storm.

Prayer 
Lord, thank You for Your wisdom and You all knowing Presence. Nothing about us is hidden from You, every storm, every tide is visible to You no matter how far we have drifted from You. Help us not to focus on our circumstances, but to focus on You our Solution. Thank You for the peace that brings calm into our lives. Thank You Lord for indeed You love us and You gave Yourself up for us. Guide us today so that we can depend on You.
In Jesus name, amen.

Shalom ☕💐

A Higher Calling: Embracing Purpose

# Embracing Purpose: A Journey of Faith and Fulfillment You are not an accident! Every aspect of who I am is designed for a purpose. As Albert Einstein once said, "God doesn't play dice." God created me with intention, and only He can guide me to fulfill that purpose. I am alive today for a reason, and I seek to understand the role I am meant to play in the grand puzzle of life. Prayer  Lord, I don't want to miss out on the plan You have for me and end up going in circles. Show me where I am stagnating and how I should break camp and advance forward. I believe that I have all that I need to accomplish what I was created for. You have packaged everything for my purpose within me, and I don't need to look for it elsewhere. Your love is focused on me, and You have made everything for my enjoyment. #Action Points: 1. Reflect and Pray: Spend time in prayer and reflection, asking God to reveal areas where you might be stagnating and seeking His guidance on h...

What is life?

How We Define Life Determines Our Destiny Anchor Scripture  James 4:14 NKJV Whereas you do not know what will  happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.  What is life? I see life as a garden beaming with various elements, both valuable like fruits and vegetables and some not so valuable, like weeds and pests. Character is the seed planted in my garden. How I take care of it determines the fruit it will produce. The changes in the weather, the quality of soil, and even the frequency of rainfall play major roles in the growth or lack of growth in my character. Everything that happens in my garden is important. Any weed infestation will lower the quality of my yield, and how I respond to it will also affect the harvest. Every day is an important day in my garden; every second counts because growth happens behind the scenes. Every drop of water or fertilizer plays a significant role in the gar...

What Drives You?

What Drives You? Have you ever paused to ask yourself, “What drives me?” Why do you do what you do? Why is it important to you? Is it your personal choice to do it? Take a moment to reflect on these questions. Our past shapes us, but it doesn’t have to dictate our future. God is a God of second chances and even third chances. He hasn’t given up on us; He is still pursuing even the one sheep missing from the pen. As 2 Peter 3:9 (NLT) reminds us:  “The Lord isn’t really being slow about his promise, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants everyone to repent.” Think about what truly motivates you. Is it a passion, a calling, or a sense of duty? Reflect on how God’s patience and grace have given you the opportunity to pursue your purpose. Embrace these second chances and move forward with renewed determination and faith. Action Point: This week, set aside some quiet time to journal about your motivations a...
