Hide and seek

          


Some of us need to be asked a question that requires being honest, something that needs to be brought to light without getting defensive. Sometimes we can get so defensive when asked questions like What are you trying prove? Who are you trying to impress? 
We feel attacked, judged, ashamed even when asked questions that put us on the spot and exposes a secret we're trying to hide, feelings were trying to hide, something we are trying to hide and becoming defensive about it. 
Sometimes we need to let those defensive feelings go and truly look at ourselves, look at our lives   honestly and reveal the truth about who we are and the way we live our lives. Some of us need to change direction in our lives and hear from God. 
I think that in today's society sin has become watered down to make it seem less of a big deal, but sin is sin and there is no pussyfooting around it, no excuses for it, no blaming anyone but yourself. You can't water it down. Call it what it is and own it, be responsible for it. We are not perfect and we all make mistakes but don't deny it or try to hide it, accept it and then make it right.

The things that matter.

                 We are so blind to what God has put in front of us, so distracted by the materialism of this world and by our own shallow existence that we have become more concerned by our own vanity and how we look and our outwardly appearance. Our lives are mostly centred around living a glamourous lifestyle, centred around fame, money and possessions, centred around sex and relationships, centred around reputation. Our lifestyles today are about keeping up with the joneses, being the toughest, being the best, w e've forgotten to see the beauty around us.  We've forgotten that we are beautiful with or without make up, inside and out. We've forgotten that fame is when we are idolised by our children, our friends and our family, knowing that whatever we do we will always be stars in their eyes.  We've forgotten the riches of life, the simple pleasures that cost nothing but mean the world - a  heartwarming hug, a passiona...

Gods love

  He loved his disciples, he loved them as you love me. He protected them as you protect me. He guarded them as you guard me. He told them many things as you have told me many things. He gave them his word as you have given me. He loved them as you love me and I love you. 

Dark days!

          Sometimes we think the Lord will never bless us. We have lost hope, have given up, are stuck in a rut and can't or won't move forward and given up even trying. Some of us give up on our relationships, give up trying to make things right, give up on having a better life.  We all have dark days, days when we just can't seem to get anything right, we all suffer from broken hearts, loss, go through some really difficult times in our lives but it's important to struggle on and fight, to never crumble but to be strong and remain in christ. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel.    We may choose not to notice that God is blessing our lives because it's easier to live like there is no hope, it's easier to put the blame onto others, blame society for our failings so that we don't have to  look to ourselves to see how bad things are. We choose to deny the good things, we choose to ignore the positives, we choose to be blind to Gods...
