Continuation...

Now a little background for the past few years God has challenged me in the area of maturity right which is ironic because those who don't know me (I am assuming all of you) will see that I am pretty mature anyway? A prophet at our church challenged me last year, saying God is calling you to maturity and I kind of thought to myself really? Then he said you are mature already but God has a higher calling for you so press on and stay focused. So this is where I am going - maturity but not just as I am but much greater, a maturity that is from God and God only.

So I was reading in my bible a few nights back... in I Corinthians 13: 1-13 and everyone familiar with the bible just went oh love right. Yes the love is patient, kind...etc But that's the thing we find these great verses which we love and seem to miss the rest. So I read on...

"Love never fails.
But where there are prophecies, they will cease;
where there are tongues, they will be stilled;
where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.
When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.
When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me.
Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face.
Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known."

It is just an encouragement whilst we know the old age wisdom of love, we need to be reminded yet also have a focus on maturing in Christ and seeking his face: face to face.

Food for thought bloggers... over and out.

Stop

This blogger is back momentarily...

Been real busy over the past months ever since Merry Go R
ound I guess... (Attached are some pics.) I had assignments then tests then mock exams and now I can breathe for a few weeks untill TEE exams but in the meanwhile I will study, work and try to spend time with my friends who I have neglected over the past few months.

I just want life to stop for one moment so I can catch my breathe. It
's all over soon and I can't wait. But I'm scared I predict a blog next year saying why isn't my life moving! You really can't win can you. Just with furthering my relationship with God, studying the bible, ministry with my agents, spending time with Jordan... those things that seem to be in slow motion. I find myself just sitting in God's presence - Be still and know that I am God!

Its like Jordan... All my schoolies are like "You saw Jordan Sunday..?" But it's not just the time you spend, it's so rushed. He doesnt get it either "I'll see you in like 2 days" he says, thats not it, I don't want to DO anything, my life is full of doing, I just want to sit, with him.

Sitting in silence with God is a blessing...

HERE YOU GO MERRY GO FANS: (you can also see the progression of my hair)
