THE WILDERNESS

THE WILDERNESS



Alone in the wilderness
I shouted
But no one could hear my voice
Look around
But no one seems to be there with me

It was terrifying
I was frightened
I ran and ran
But, I don't just know where I was heading to

The lion came roaring
Wanting to devour me
And make my flesh food

I kept running
I just can't think
I don't just know how I got there
No one around to explain how I got to the wilderness

Then,I remembered
That I serve the lion of the tribe of Judah
My God is a lion
Then I am a lion
Then I shouldn't be afraid

I stopped
I faced the lion the same way David did

And I said to the lion
You can't devour me
You can't make my flesh meat and my blood wine
Even though I am lost in the wilderness
I can still trace my steps out of the wilderness

The lion was amazed
It went back
While I kept walking and working
Until I was out
Out of the wilderness.

Now, Making use of those potentials to glorify God is a subject to your location.  *Where are you?* Are you in the presence of God or Outside? It is in the presence of God that we find fullness of Joy And it is the joy we find in the presence of God that gives us inspiration in the fulfillment of our purpose on Earth. You get to know your purpose through/in God and God ...

A CALL TO REPENTANCE The dream I had So many weeping In total dismay No one wishes to console another I moved closer Noticed they just lost a dear one I was sad in my spirit I said to them This is how it's going to be one day That day we would notice We can't talk,walk,move our body,Contribute to discussions Then, What would be our gain without Christ After all the labour and struggles on Earth What would be our hope If all we had done on Earth is to please the self in us(fresh) The flesh leaves us And deliver our spirit for judgement So what is then our gain pleasing the flesh And then, The bus arrived The bus called repentance Which was ready to convey as many who repents to salvation  For as long as the breathe of life is still at work in you You still have a second chance *Surrender* Your friend, ✍🏼 Olayinka Beatrice Akinfolase.
