START OVER

Everybody's got a blank page
A story they are writing today
A wall that they are climbing
You can carry the past on your shoulders
Or you can start over
Regrets...
No matter what you go through
Jesus...
He gave it all to save you
He carried the cross on His shoulders
So you can start over...

Let me start by saying Happy New year to you from Sly and Vicky. This is our first blog this year and I am so excited about what God has in store for those who Love Him.
So this song is one of my favorite especially when I think of the many downfalls people go through and mostly Christians. This one is for those whose last year may not have been as great as you expected or you did not end it as well as you had hoped. Many times one gets to a point where you are not sure if you can make another step... believe again or just let go and take on whatever comes your way. It is not sin to feel weary or tired but there is one thing I want us to look at.
Jesus did not come for the strong in spirit or for those who got everything under control. If that was the case then He wouldn't be refered to as a friend of sinners. He says, come unto me all who are weary and heavy laden and I will give you rest... He says His york is easy and his burden is light. There are many things that try to wear us down but Loving Christ is one way to lay aside your burdens at His feet.
It is okay to start over. It is okay to look at it differently. It is okay to let go of that wearing you down. We are not perfect but we have a perfect Savior and friend. Infact even when your faith is failing tell him like one of the men whose child was healed by Christ..."Lord I believe... but help my unbelief." This year... I want to be still at all times, but I know I am prone to forgetting how... So as I start over, I let Christ remind me over and over again plus I will ride on what He says I am... not what I see.
Have a blessed year full of Faith and Peace.

Photo from youtube.com This post is not for one who got it under control. This post is not for you who thinks you have to do a number of things to get God's attention. This post is not for one who already has a list of this years resolution and is willing to make everything work. This one today is for you who only knows that God is with you and that is all that matters. One who is aware of the new year but still has a junk of the previous years trying to weigh them down.

YOU NEVER LEAVE ME

Umeahidi ewe Bwana huniachi (You have promised oh Lord that you never leave me) Hadi mwisho wa dahari ulisema huniachi (To the end of ages you said, you will not leave me) Wewe ni Mungu uliye mwaminifu siku zote (You always a faithful God) Mimi ninaiweka Imani yangu kwako Bwana (I put my faith on you Lord) Today I just sat down and remembered the faithfulness of the Lord. These are the wings I needed to soar with in this new month.

PEOPLE

We all care. Most of us like to say we do not really care what anyone thinks about us but truth is that deep down we really do. It's just that some of us have slowly been sucked into approval addiction while some have gradually realized that it really shouldn't matter that much so we try not to let others' opinions sway us. All the same, even those of us who claim not to care actually want everyone to believe that we are unmoved by their opinions so really, it's a big deal. 123rf.com They are the best and the worst you've created Loving and hating and opinionated Loners in basements and those congregated Deliver me... Far from the peace, from ashore I was sinking Deep in the ocean of thoughts they were thinking Don't know what  validation I was seeking Deliver me from... I believe there's nothing wrong with caring about opinions. Because sometimes we're able to change our lives' direction for the better because we listened t

REMEMBER

Sometimes things go dark. So dark that life ceases to make sense... Sometimes things go wrong and just when we think they can't get any worse they actually do... Sometimes we get weak...or as we like to say, life happens. This song, I believe, is for those times when life happens. Because those are the times we are prone to forget the truth we very much proclaim to know. Those  are the times we question our faith in God, we question His love for us, we question the very Words we so clearly heard Him speak to us. This song is a reminder to never forget in the darkness what we know to be true in the light. Cheta, Cheta (remember, remember)

OF HONEST PRAYERS...

We've heard it said countless times that when it comes to talking to God, there's no sort of perfect way to it. What matters most is the state of our hearts.  A broken and contrite heart- these, He will not despise. A good number of people say music gets them through pretty much everything. The truth is that music is powerful. However there have been times in my life when nothing made sense. When I say nothing I mean even the songs that would normally be very helpful were simply just nicely arranged words with a melody. I would be in so much turmoil that I’d think of the times when one song or the other lifted my spirit and wonder what changed. Saviour please, take my hand
