I grew up in a
Christian household and have always been an active member of the church. I gave
my life to Christ at the tender the age of 12 and became a worker in the
church. Whether it was being part of the choir, chorography team, the
announcement team and even working as a youth co-ordinator (name it, I’ve done
it all). Although, I’ve consistently been going to church and participating in
these activities….I’ve lost my way, it’s hard to admit but I’ve struggled to
keep my relationship with Christ.
It all started when I
turned 18, I went to university and decided to explore what the world had to offer.
I wanted to party, drink, smoke and be like everyone else. I got distracted and
eventually began to question God’s existence.
Despite this, God
still had my back and has always loved me unconditionally. One thing I’ve
always asked for is wisdom, knowledge and understanding in all areas of my life
and he has definitely granted me that. Particularly in my finances & career
AND I will forever be grateful for that.
Over the last couple
of years, my heart has been heavy and I knew it was because my relationship
with God was going down the drain but I kept ignoring it until the point where I decided I couldn’t continue living my life this way. I needed to
start my journey with Christ again so I stopped all my church activities and
decided to find a new place to worship so I could have a fresh start.
Isaiah 53 v 6 says “we’re
all like sheep who’ve wandered off and gotten lost. We’ve done our own thing,
gone our own way And God has piled all our sins, everything we’ve done wrong on
him, on him…."
So here I am today,
documenting my journey back home to Christ. I know its going to be tough and
there will be trials and tribulations on the way but I’m READY to take this
JOURNEY. The LORD consistently had my back while I was moving away from him and
I can only imagine what more he will do for me now I’m back.
Stay blessed xxx
