HOPE OF THE HEART

Ever listened to a song and then after some time you are like, wait, what is this song really saying?
The hope of our hearts
The hope of our hearts
Is you
Your Love never fails
Your love never fails
No wonder Paul would say that He is a prisoner of hope. Where else would you get a sustaining
hope, one that does not fade, if not in love? A hope that cannot be taken away because we know for sure that all things will indeed work together for good. That our happy ending is in the arms of one who has a plan for us. Plans to prosper us and to give us a future and a hope.

This is how perfect love casts out all fear. It is this protection that cuts across every area of our lives. It is the common thing that every heart longs for. When we need peace, Love whispers that it is well. When we are surrounded by despair, Love whispers that the Joy of the Lord is our strength. The shepherd of our hearts is near, we will lack nothing good.
Love gave us a savior in John 3:16. Love conquers all. Everything with a link in love is powerful. 1st Corinthians Chapter 13 will tell you that nothing is real without a touch of Love and when everything that is temporally is taken away, that which is permanent will remain.This is why the hope of our hearts is the real Love found in Christ.
I sometimes get tongue tied when I want to express this Love. My prayer is that we all grow deeper in it. Then the Joy of the Lord will indeed be our strength and His faithfulness our shield.We will not abuse it but know how to, in the same way, love our neighbors.

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
