Passive living

Hello Beautiful people,

The Easter period is over and i hope that many of us had a lot of time to reflect on our lives and the importance and the magnitude of the sacrifice that God gave to save your life. With that being said, i find it pertinent that we talk about passive living.

It is possible to go your whole life barely awake. It is possible to just get by and not actively participate in the happenings of your life. I say this because i spent a little over a decade of my life asleep. I just let things flow, wherever the direction of the wind headed, i went with it. Passive living is not actively participating in the happenings of your life. I can tell you, decisions concerning my life were made by other people and I went with whatever decision they made. Its not difficult to live a passive life really. Getting to this place is most likely a traumatic experience or lack of meaning in life. Your life has meaning, you're not an accident or mistake. You can move from this kind of life to a different one. There is a way out of passive living.

It took me a while to wake up but it happened. It wasn't one of those "ahah" moment's but God gradually woke me up from this deep sleep. God brought someone into my life, after a series of dreams and interpretations, that finally led to my awakening. Being awake means you decide in which direction you want your life to go. You make the decisions and actively take responsibility for what you say and do. It started happening day by day until I became an active participant in my own life.

Our life is our story to the world and how it all ends is entirely upto you. The decisions we make, the choices are major factors in how your story unfolds. Letting God be a part of your life while be the greatest decision you ever make. We have the Holy Spirit to guide us and intercede on our behalf. We have a helping hand and a friend to see us through this process. You don't have to be afraid to live your life. I know sometimes its scary because you fear you'll make a bunch of wrong decisions which will mess up your life and the clean up is not particularly exciting. Being afraid of making mistakes is no way to live. You can't spend your whole life afraid, you will never be happy, you're probably unhappy right now. You must believe there is a way out of your slump, you must want something for your life. You must have dreams that you'd like to have fulfilled. The only way you can wake up is to let Jesus in, He will transform your life and you will never be the same again. It's not too late to change the direction of your life.

You are one decision away from a totally different life.

It is all temporary

Hello Beautiful people,

It has surely been a long day...so many things happen in a space of a second and much of which can change your life forever. Have you ever been, in a situation were the information you thought to be true actually turned out to be true? You had a clue to what was going on but you didn't want to believe it was the case and then it actually turns out to be the case and that just lives you frozen.

All moments in life are temporary, nothing in this life is permanent. Life itself is temporary but that does not mean we should use "YOLO" as an excuse to live a frivolous life. We are privileged to have this life and because it is time sensitive it is our responsibility to live our lives rightly and do something that actually matters. There is a good chance if you do something grande you will be awarded with either a Nobel prize or a statue but if you aren't awarded in that manner, live a mark on someones life that will light the candle in the next person.

Letting go of people, saying goodbye, living the past behind, walking away or whatever you want to call it should then be a lot easier once we realise that this life is short lived. Living a life that is full of happiness, accepting who we are, living our dreams and enjoying the journey is truly a big part of the beauty if life. You and I need to stop worrying and freaking out about how it all turns out and instead focus on God and letting Him lead the way. What better way to live than letting the creator of life take the lead in your on life?

Do you ever get scared of not waking up the next morning? Or maybe not doing all you set yourself upto do because you ran out of time? What's even more scary is dying alone, no wait, not being loved, that's worse. We have been lied too by society that we have to earn love, we have to be perfect to receive love and so many other lies. Funny thing is we've taken those lies to be truth. You don'tknow what you don't know. We have must not harden our hearts because this will keep us from progressing and honestly, it will make us miserable and unhappy and unsatisfied. Jesus Christ is real, His love is real, its never changing. You dont have to be perfect to recieve His love, He meets you right where you are, its all about surrender. My advice to you is, don't sweat the small stuff, realise you and i, will pass away. Love deeply and allow Jesus Christ to be at the center of your life.

You are beautiful.
