Its been for quite sometime now that the youth event at our church "lighthouse" been taking place. This event is an evening where hungry young people on fire for Jesus gather to celebrate the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. It does thrill my heart to see teenagers gather together just to lift the name of Jesus. Tonight is going to be no different. I turly am looking forward to tonight's "lighthouse". As I write this from my office I can hear a whole bunch of teenagers practising, making arrangements. In just a few minutes this place will be filled by teens from all over the city, both church goers and non-church goers. If you read this and are a teenager, and have nothing to do tonight, you are welcome to join in the party, where the name of Jesus is celebrated!!

Looking ahead

Looking ahead and predicting what would eventually happen is not an easy task. In fact more often than not we tend to not always get it right. However, there is something behind the "attitude" of "looking ahead" that keeps us going. In the business realm they call this looking ahead as vision, or goal. In the church realm the same thing-vision or goal. In the personal realm (once again ) the same thing-vision or goal. As created, intelligent human beings, we are endowed with this ability of looking ahead. In fact we can either be very bad stewards of this ability or very good stewards. The point Iam trying to make is that we can all LOOK AHEAD from where we are today to where we could be tomorrow, a month from now, a year from now etc. In other words, we can "plan" our looking ahead. The grand vision or the goal that we set, needs to be broken down into small action steps that will enable us to reach that goal. Here is where we need to acquire information, knowledge etc in how we can make, take small action steps. A majority of us tend to have great visons and goals but lack in the small action steps towards that vision and goal to make it reality. Let me put it this way, it is the small steps that we intentionally and consciously make and take everyday towards that which we perceive to be our future that will make our visions and goals a reality. So two months into this extra-ordinary year of 2012 (yes I truly believe this year to be an extra-ordinary)what is it that you are looking ahead to?. What are you and I doing today to make that which we are looking ahead to , a reality. You've got it in you, a God-given ability to steward the God-given gift which you werre created with. Put it to use. A valuable source that is of immense informational wealth through lives curvy, tricky and sometimes unexpected paths is the Bible. Make it a point to read it, try putting some small feet to that which read and you will see how the bible will strengthen you, sustain you, nourish you and help you make the right decisions on your journey towards realising your visions and goals.

A quick word

It has taken me some time to filter away a whole lot of possible content material in this blog in order to give my readers a clear cut picture of what my blog is all about. Of course I could write and comment on various things and also share a whole lot of personal material with you all, but I am directed to keep this blog, a place, where you the reader can follow my thoughts on church, religion, current affairs, politics and theology.So I do hope that you would drop by every once in a while and would also leave a comment.
