Revival and Reformation

Myself in God

It has been a long time since i set down and written something, and i should say i miss it a lot. I miss sharing my daily experience with God, the blessing he showers me with and the faithfulness he shows every moment. It has been a roller coaster these past months. A lot has surely happened and in the middle of everything i kind of lost myself, myself in God. I lost my relationship with God, i stopped praying, reading the bible...you name it, but even worse I stopped recognizing that am a sinner who needs salvation. The most painful thing about the whole situation is to even loose your identity in Christ all in the name sustaining worldly relationships.

Writing this almost brings me into dears when am thinking about the kind of life i have been living recently. You know i thought i had given up my life for Christ, I thought i had surrendered all...but i guess i thought a lot and acted little. Am talking to my sisters who want to build a beautiful, sustainable relationship with God. Never be too comfortable in this journey, never think you have conquered temptations, because that is when the devil takes action. See today I woke up in the morning and realized i needed to do a U-turn, i need to revive my relationship with God and most of all Rebuild my womanly dignity . 

 Backsliding is real, and I don't mean the kind where you stop going to church and all.....I mean the one where you continue worshiping, singing and even conducting bible studies . The kind where you preach what you don't live, give advise that you don't practice...that has been me. But by the grace of God have found myself again, myself in God.

 To be continued.....

First Things First

Woke up today day like any other day.         Feeling a bit lazy but happy. I made my bed, brushed my teeth, I had my breakfast and cleaned the house.         I was suppose to do some work,Bu t for some reason I kept on procrastinating I ended up opening my Whatsapp instead.       And as expected messages started flocking in Some more urgent than others And others responses from the previous night conversations. As I began to respond to the text messages in their order of urgency, I get a text from him. Yes, him. The man that I had given my heart The man who I thought my heart was safe with  The man whom I decided to love The man who looked me in my eyes and told me how much he cared The man who told me that the thought of losing me made him scared         Theee man that told me I was special, that I was of a unique species.     Yes, that man...

Healing: One of those moments

Hi friends, It has been a minute. Almost four years, actually. While I am a bit sad that it has taken me so long to start blogging again. I am glad 2024 is having me do all the things I have set my mind to do. Thank you LORD. So recently I had one of "those moments". You know those moments that just take away all the progress you think you have made, and the setback presents itself as painful as thousand needles. Trust me, I am grateful to God. Grateful for saving me from all those near death experiences, taking me out of that life frightening place and gracing me yet with another day to live. I am grateful, I really am. However the life I have suffered to live thereafter sometimes feels like it hasn't found a way to weave back the torn fabrics of my heart. One day I am the strongest woman I know, full of life and totally confident in who and what he says I am. Next, I am weak, doubtful, with no self esteem whatsoever and re-living the past as if it was just yesterday. Te...

Intoduction to Thubelihle Maduma

Blessed greeting blogger So since it is my first blog post. I thought, why not I tell  you a little  about myself.  This will help in the later  readings you come across  that you will understand where my views  and principles  are based on. In the matter of age, I have completed 18 years of life,praying for the 19th this September. So yes am pretty young,SURPRISE!!! I quite struggle to describe what kind of a person I am so I will  leave that to you to conclude, however each day I pray longing for the character of Christ to be resembled through me. As he says that let that mind that was in me, be in you also. Among many things I believe in simplicity,whether  in dress, food, conversation, and relations. Let it be simple and done to the glorification of the almighty "whatever ye do, eat or drink, do it in the glory of God". Everything should testify of the master  you  serve. Beginning from  your thoughts, your  hear...
