Your story, His glory.

A display of His glory, that’s what the story of your life, is.
Like a tapestry, woven by a master weaver,
Like a piece of sculpture crafted by the finest of artisans,
Like a book written by the most talented of authors,
Like masterpiece composed by the most gifted of composers,
This is the very way the Father appreciates you
And by His estimation, your life is beautiful in every way.
Because when He looks inside you, to the innermost part of your being,
When He looks outwards to the part most people see and hate or love,
When He remembers your name or the number of hairs on your head,
He remembers the purpose that required your creation.
The reasons why not just planet earth, but your tribe in particular, cried for a son.
Why you had to be born at the time and place you where born.
Why you had to grow up the way you did,
What He has done so far and why you are still a work in progress
He knows how far you have come, He also knows how far you are yet to go
Like a book, He’s read you from start to finish
And because the days of your life are spread out before Him thus,
Because He set the plot, He knows the sequence, down to the minutest details
Every detail; woven, crafted, composed and written by His very hands,
When it seems life is a puzzle and you are merely fumbling through the motions,
He nods in approval, like a connoisseur tasting fine wine.
His heart leaps when things go according to His original blue print for your life
But His heart breaks when you stray from His plot of this beautiful story called your life.
However, because He is your maker, He knows the details of your design.
And because He loves you, He‘d fit the pieces of the puzzle together
Every experience, every encounter, is piece,
Either sent by the enemy to mar you
Or by the Father to make you the man He always knew you’d become

In the end, let His grandest scheme be achieved in your life, let your story be His glory.

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...

Why Do You Smoke?

6 personalized approaches to quitting forever.  Everyone smokes—and quits—for different reasons, and the key to getting smoke-free for life is to find out why you are smoking and then change those behaviors. If you are a Recreational or Social Smoker, you may feel that your limited smoking poses no serious medical harm to yourself or others. You may, however, ignore warning signs that your occasional smoking is progressing into addiction, especially during periods of stress or increased alcohol use. A periodic review of these warning signs may help motivate you to consider becoming smoke-free. The Scared-to-Quit Smoker has no end of reasons (excuses) to put off going smoke-free to some future date. Sometimes it helps to focus on just quitting for one day. If you can quit for a day, you can quit every day. This realization can be a great confidence builder, and helps to decrease your fears about not smoking “ever again.” Forever is too big a word for many addicts; thus the old adage...
