Life Through Lenses

Ever felt you're unfairly treated by God?

Caught in a situation you didn't think you deserved to be in?

And it's during these times, we felt Daddy God has forsaken us, didn't we?

Yesterday, as I was looking through facebook,

I chanced upon this particular group that got me thinking.

2 years ago, I did my O levels, just like the others.

Being a child of God, I thought He had everything planned out,

and that I'd end up in a good tertiary institution.

I didn't.

At that point, I felt so frustrated.

I doubted my status as a child of God.

Yet, He remained faithful.

And it was these 2 years, that became the most memorable in my life.

It was during this period, that He actually opened many doors of opportunity,

to grow in my walk in Him.

And it's also during this time, He placed desires in me, and I know He has called me for something.

Looking back today, He's the reason, that I'd be proud to say, I was from ITE.

Beloved, many times we're blinded by the adversities we're facing.

We allow these these situations to distract us from what Daddy God has for us.

When Joseph was in Egypt, his dad Jacob thought he was dead.

And up till the time when Joseph became Prime Minister of Egypt,

Jacob was blinded by the loss of his son,

He didn't realize God was actually setting him up for a greater blessing!

And we all know how the story ended.

Beloved, we all face challenges everyday.  Be it big or small.

Yes it is difficult to remain optimistic about God in these situations.

And we may have no logical explanation as to why Daddy God allowed it to happen,

And how He's going to bless us.

But Hey, God isn't logical all the time right?

He raised the dead, gave sight to the blind, and healed the oppressed.

Beloved, as you go through today,

there's only one thing I can assure you.

Daddy God Never Leaves You Nor Forsakes You.

That, beloved, is His promise.
