A promise

Who is a king
A king is royalty: thats honor.
A king is in charge of a particular area of space/ people :   A king has the final say over the people in an area: that's influence.
A king is a custodian of wealth: thats riches.
That position in itself is a place of power.

Isaiah 49:23: Kings shall be your foster fathers, And their queens your nursing mothers;
They shall bow down to you with their faces to the earth, And lick up the dust  of your feet. Then you will know that I am the LORD, For they shall not be ashamed who wait for Me. "

Simply, there are people on this earth who stand as kings even though they don't occupy the position of a king. In the sense,they've got power, influence, riches and even expanses of land that are way beyond your comprehension.  They may live in regular houses, ride regular cars and relate with regular people but they are much more than they reveal. They would usually even sit next to you in a public place.

Basically, this scripture paints a picture of how God can make people of influence and wealth (in areas we are not as wealthy) to tilt in our favor.
Somewhere in that passage says that they'll lick up the dust of your feet..  
It won't be a literal licking of feets,however,it may be in clothing and housing or network of people (relationships)  you e couldn't have accessed on your ur own. It could be in form of wealth of experiences or places you e could not reach by yourself. The feet is an indication of 'hustle'; a person whose feels are ladened with dust has definitely done some hard labor.

And so I want to encourage you not to keep God out of your business(everything that has to do with you).
It's in waiting for him while we stay committed to our business that we see him show up. And that's just the things about God, there's always a waiting season, where God would require us to consistently look to him for big things...Just invade you are weary or you're getting weary, God said wait, just wait, hang on in there for a bit,and you'll see the goodness of the Lord.

God bless you abundantly.

With Peace and Love,

Grace.

The Black Bag

Running over from the end of the class where I was sitting to my course mate,I sat on the chair next to him as I placed his school bag on my legs. Staring at the bag for a while,I said, precious Holy Spirit please teach me a lesson from this bag. It was a black leather-like bag with patches on the side(some parts of the bag peeled off). As I starred at the bag I asked my course mate-How old is this bag? He said to me,its about a year old. Its amazing how people tend to defend their actions even before you make your comment(He was already giving me reasons the bag looked that old/tattered). I discovered the bag was too good to be that tattered at less than one year. That was the lesson right there: There are people who are strong and passionate,vibrant and active,with so much beauty radiating from their inside out. But then situations in life may rise up,some beyond human control,some at the mercy of human that could make someone as good as that black leather bag become so tattered li...

#misfit

Attachments area Preview attachment IMG4F8C It was one of those days in September (2015). I had this outfit on to class. I sure did feel good and confident in it :) . I'm getting to class and couple of my group mate are amazed! (that expression between shock and cool). Yeah! I've never really dressed in that kind of style before. .... As I walked down the street,I actually did think about people been surprised at my outfit for the day. But then,I thought,this may not be my conventional style but someone will see me and get very comfortable been his/herself. Why?- someone else can resonate with their style.That alone gave me some more confidence with every step I took. Every other person is classy and elegant but you are bohemian  Every other person is corporate but you are casual Everyone seems to have it all figured out but you are lost. Everyone seems to be short but you are tall Everyone seems to be doing life big but you can't st...

FOCUS N or P

I’m sure you are wondering by now, what does focus N or P mean? Yeah,its worth the think. I’m sure you are familiar with the way a camera works, at least to some extent. The android phone/iPhone users can own this complement. You’ld often realize that some pictures don’t come out ‘fine’ or clear because whoever was behind the phone did not focus it right. Having seen the picture, you be like ‘omg this picture is blurry’. How many have friends who take blurry pictures (winks.)- this is by the way.(I do that sometimes). Youl’d realize that one or two taps on your android phone makes the image much clearer. For my photographer folks, a gentle turn of that Nickon D3300’s focus ring  and or zoom ring would give a perfect picture.  Just like a camera can produce both positive and negative images, so also our minds, based on our focus. In Numbers 13:30-31, Caleb and Joshua happen to bring back a good report as compared to the report of the other representati...
