Quietly and consciously flipping

My eyes and whole thoughts fixed

All fixing their gaze at the pages of the holy book

Reading and drawing out words

… Some  words actually

Corrections, instructions, promises, rebukes …

Most of which sometimes bruised my over blotted ego and stubbornness

Some that sometimes put smiles on my face, some give me hope that something is actually on the way even when all seems blurred

Yet some other of these words make me scared – Stories that records the destruction of many

But something beckons on my attention each time I’m faced with some of this scary stories – Mercy and Love

God always amazes me

A perfect practitioner of Spare the rod and spoil the child, open rebuke being better than secret corrections and the likes in other scriptures.

It still doesn’t stop me from wondering –

What exactly is the word meant for?

What situation is it applicable to and not to?

Still searching deep and asking questions

And I came to an understanding:”The word is multidimensional. A masterpiece of peace. Seen as only a book composed of history and mere words,but it builds, gives life, encourages, gives hope, straightens crooked paths and so much more that one can’t tell it all. It is an Anchor, Pillar, and Manual for every life in existence today. It speaks to all and many  – Old and young, poor and rich, man,woman, children, e.t.c.
It speaks to all situations – sadness, oppression,and what have you. It is a completion of man’s life. It makes a whole difference  in a man’s life. It distinguishes the wise from the foolish.”

Sometimes, its difficult to believe in the word and obey, but faith makes the difference.

Following the word is likened unto reading of map to get to a designated destination.

Hold on to that book and you’ll hold on to a secured life. All in Jesus.

Need I remind you also that that word is Jesus represented in a book. Let Him be your GUIDE.
