Totally hooked on God

This is the very first time in my life where I am hundred percent happy on hooked onto something. As is addicted, as in I cannot imagine my life without a dose. That’s right I am hooked on God.  He has been blessing me beyond what I have ever imagined, to think that is only the beginning blows my mind.

I am literally caught up in His grace like an avalanche. I have learnt to remain hooked to God so much more in the good times than I have in the past. See I would hold tighter onto God when things were wrong and when things became better I would loosen my grip, because I felt now I’ve got this. Man 2017 has taught me to shift my mind-set and allow God to work on my heart. Through that I hold onto God so tightly during the good times so that when the storms do come (and they will come) He is already there with me. I do not have to fight through whatever is coming my way, instead I just look up to Him and say “You’ve got me which means you’ve got this.” He truly does make all things work out for my good.

I boldly declare that I am highly favoured and that my tests have now become my testimony. Having lived at home most of my working life, I did not know what “responsibilities” really were. Everything was always taken care of, like everything. So when an amazing job opportunity came which required me to move out of home. That’s when the real “adulting” test came along. For the first time in my life I actually had to work out a budget, because with the great opportunity came great responsibility. For the first time in my life I had to actually “worry” about how I spent my money. I put the word worry in inverted comas because I came to the realisation that I cannot worry and trust God at the same time.  So does this mean I spent money recklessly because I serve a God who provide in abundance?  ABSOLUTELY NOT!  This just meant I remember that He would not place me where His presence does not follow, ie wisdom, joy, mercy etc.

This does not mean that money just miraculously appeared, what happened with me is that I was gifted with wisdom in the way in which I spent my money. This made sure I never lacked a single thing. God always made a way to make sure that ALL my needs were met. Fast track to where I am now.  My family had a month of prayer and sharing of the word, we listed all our prayers and we stood in faith with each other for them. I can testify that EVERY single one of those prayers have been answered and others are being answered as I write this. I confidently say, like Joseph, I am highly favoured. Even in the midst of my storm, I am highly favoured. (Read Gen 41: 38-57). So I recently started my new job in a company that I have dreamt of working for since the start of my relationship with telecoms. When Vodacom called and said “We want you!” Man all I could say was “Look at God,” I was at my former job when I got the news, my best friend (Jess) and I were both jumping for joy. This was truly Gods hand, out of all those thousand applicants and interviews, they chose me. During orientation we were asked why we think we are sitting in the chairs we were sitting on. The official said it was not by chance there was something different that was spotted in each of us, which is why we are here. I started to smile on the inside because look as awesome as I am, they saw something greater than me on the inside that stored potential waiting to explode. They saw His light shining in and through me. Like I said it can only be God, for my good and His glory.

So as I continue on y new adventure in this journey called life. I urge each one of you reading this to not let the good times soften your faith, if anything they should propel you to dig your roots deeper into your source, so you can fully get all the nutrients you require to remain firm no matter the weather. What you bring back to God will return times 100 times 1000 times fold over.

Rest under the graceful hand of our father. Your wins are better when you acknowledge where they come from, that way you can rest assured they are robust and will withstand obsolesces. It's perfectly fine to play the background to a rockstar, allow Him to take the lead.


Let God create you script, allow Him to re-write your lines.
His love for you is out of this world. *Pow Wow* all my crazy lovies :-)
