BLOSSOMING INTO…

I was reading my bible the other day and I came across a verse that sums up all the points I am working on for the ‘Getting to Know God – A Young Person’s Perspective’ messages. Now I was trying to find scriptures on something totally unrelated to the messages, but here’s what I ‘stumbled’ across:

‘ How can a young person stay on the path of purity? By living according to your word’ Psalm 119: 9

I say ‘stumbled’ but I know that God was using the bible at that time to speak to me. I love when God can just swerve your plans for the greatness of His will.
This is the verse you should all meditate on. When I say meditate, I mean reflect. Reflect on what it means to remain ‘pure’ in today’s society. What do you think it means to remain pure?…. Can you say your pure? What do you need to start doing to purse pureness?

All these questions, I believe, the Holy Spirit will answer. Pray on it, ask God to open your eyes to let you see impure ways so you can change. Open the channel of communication with Him.

This bible verse encapsulates the essence of all the six messages I am working on, especially the first one, which will be:
Making the conscious effort to know God.
Just reflecting on this verse and asking yourself the questions stated previously is making a conscious effort to invite God into your life to change you. Persist in seeking God so you can receive change. I need to do this myself. There is always room from growth and space for beneficial changes in our lives.

The ‘Making the conscious effort to know God’ message will be published soon.

I’m working on a message right about now. I’m not putting a time constraint on it, I’m letting God guide me with what He wants me to write.
The series of messages will be embodied under the topic: Getting to Know God – A Young Person’s perspective.
These messages will aim to encourage young people to pursue a more intimate relationship of God and explain the importance of this.

Watch this space 🙂 x

You may be thinking: ‘Aw another one of these types of bloggers about Christianity….they are all the same…blah blah’. For now I am toeing the line a bit to grasp my bearings within this whole blogging phenomenon. But I believe God has placed this concept into my heart to reach out to someone out there needing God.

God placed the idea of doing a blog a long time ago. I was so weak in faith and wrapped in fear of rejection that I didn’t pursue it. But it hasn’t ever left me, it’s been at the back of my mind for ages, bothering me whenever I’m sitting at my laptop, it especially bothered me in church when there were talks about being fruitful in the spirit. Now I honestly don’t know how this blog will be received, I just know that God will use me as a tool to speak His words to whoever needs it.
I’m not going to set a regular time to post posts or discuss topics. When God communicates to me what is to be said, I will write.

I called this blog ‘Blossom into’. Now I called this because I know that’s what you do as you grow in life. You blossom into a more refined and mature character and set goals and targets ahead of you. Life becomes more purposeful. As you grow, God watches. He has things planned for you, but you will only know the goodness of His glory if you draw closer to Him. I hope God can use me to be able you to encourage you to be closer to God, so you can activate your blessings.

Blossom into…
People who strive to know God.
