Praise The Lord! A few years ago, God laid it on my heart to start a platform where people can come and talk about how they feel and what their struggles are - a place of connection. That was the birth of "Voice Of The One Calling". This is a vision that we have been working towards for sometime. It's not a one man show but something that would need all of us to connect with each other and bring together all the people out there, so no one is alone anymore. So, let's trust, hope and connect. #mentalhealthwithGod #fellowship #Christiancounselling

Daily pearls from the shore🫧 REPAY “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.” (John 10: 10) There is no certainty that life will be a bed of roses. On the contrary, it is said, “In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”(John 16: 33) Both times, the statements don’t end in loss but with a promise and hope. The promise is restoration. We encounter all kinds of losses in life. It may not only be the financial loss but loss of time due to sickness, traumatic relationship, addiction, missed opportunity, a wrong choice, emotional trauma, experiences of shame and disgrace, or loss of family or children. This is the fallen world we live in, and we are exposed to such attacks. But the story doesn’t have to end there. "Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. (Psalm 30:5) The restoration is on its way. As the Prophet was there with his servant and was busy in the jungle, the iron axe head fell into the water; and the man cried out and said, “Alas, master!” — IT WAS SUNK. (2 Kings 6:5) Then the man of God said, “Where did it fall?” When he showed him the place, he cut down a stick and threw it in there, and made the iron float. (2 Kings 6:6) The story not only depicts the miracle of the impossibility of a metal floating, but also establishes that loss will be restored even if it looks impossible. Whether it is a health issue or any sickness, the promise is restoration of health and healing. (Jeremiah 30:17) Perhaps you have lost years in a relationship only to experience betrayal, rejection, or pain, but God promises fruitfulness. (Hosea 2:15) You may have a total dead situation, such as addiction in front of you, but God promises life out of dead bones (Ezekiel 37:5) Some of us endure situations like Job went through with loss of family and fortune, but he was restored with double for the same. (Job 42:10) Even in the curse of bondage and slavery, God used the same enemy to dispose of fortunes towards His people. (Exodus 3:21) No matter how impossible it looks, no matter how huge the loss is or how deadly the sickness seems, GOD PROMISES RESTORATION. There is a time for mourning the loss, but then there is a time to hold on to the promise of RESTORATION to the double of the portion. Shame or disgrace, sickness or addiction, family or fortune, The GOD is MIGHTY to make the IRON AXE FLOAT. He can use as humble a thing as a wooden stick and get the metal out in place. He can turn the water into wine in no time. Time, space, source, joy, peace, health, or strength, whatever the enemy tried to steal, God promises SEVEN FOLD REPAY. (Proverbs 6:31) If you are struggling with hopelessness and feeling despondent, find comfort and hope in these promises.

Pride and Persistence The way world pushes us, we are wired to be self-reliant and self-exaltating. To some extent it works. But living in such manner also cultivates an environment for pride. This pride can then put barriers for us. We miss out on lot because our pride comes in our way to reach out and ask. We might try once and if we don’t get response, we simply leave it. The reason is we are not humble enough to acknowledge that there is something that we need which is under someone else’s authority. Our prideful hearts don’t want to ask again and again because it hurts our hard headedness birthed out of pride. The thing is it doesn’t stop with our day-to-day life decisions. It intrudes our spiritual beings. The same pride gets in our way to relationship with our God, Our heavenly father, our keeper and Provider. We ask God for something and pray and if God doesn’t respond in our accordance, we simply don’t find it worth to ask, pray or believe again. It is indirect declaration that God might not grant the request or if He even cares. Philippians 4:6 says, “Be careful for nothing; but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God.” Matthew 15:28 says, “Then Jesus answered and said unto her, O woman, great is thy faith: be it unto thee even as thou wilt. And her daughter was made whole from that very hour.” Luke 18:5 again says’ “yet because this widow keeps bothering me, I will see that she gets justice, so that she won’t eventually come and attack me!’ ” In both scenarios, it’s the persistence that was rewarded as faith. Pride hinders outcomes because prideful heart has unbelief seated in the core. Persistence carries a deeply rooted faith that the petitioner will get what he/she seeks. So, let’s seek Our Counsellor, Our Helper, The Holy Spirit to help us to be humble, persistent, and persevering because it waters the roots of faith and flourishes believer’s life. https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1BD5b8JkUQ/ #christiancounselling #persistentfaith #dealingpride #mentalhealthwithgod
