A Walk To Remember

It's been 3 and a half years with you and it seems  like just yesterday that we met but at the same time it feels like I have known you forever.

Its  been the best and awesomest 3years of my life and I'm looking forward to the next 70 years with you(May God Keep Us For Each Other)

I knew immediately that it was forever. I knew that you were that special man who would hold my heart, protect it and love it.

I knew that that first walk was a walk towards our future. I knew it wouldn't be an easy road and I was right, it as been a road less travelled but it as definitely been a road of lots of blessing.





It's been 3 and a half years of growing, falling, learning, teaching, ups and downs and now you and I are planning on forever.

I never imagined what relationships were all about until I meant the you, I never knew or could never have imagined how much change can happen in 3 years.

I have learned so much from you in the last 3 years, not only about myself but also about life and most importantly about what it truly means to love.

I am definitely a better person since I have met you. You challenge me for the better, you encourage me to be the best I can possibly be, you have been bringing out the God in me for the past  years and you have taught me that that's a process that will never stop.

We have not always gotten it right, we have made our fair share of mistakes, but we have also learnt alot from trusting in God above all else and also trusting in each other.

I can confidently say that what ever life through at us in  future, by the grace of God we  are overcomers.

We have been through alot of things designed to tear us apart and through it all even when we couldn't see the light, we have always managed to make it out even stronger than before by the grace of God.



I love you more than yesterday and I will love you even more tomorrow because God is Love. You are a blessing in my life, my special gift from God. It as been such an amazing time seeing you transform into a man that seeks God first above all other things.


You have been and continue to be my strength when I am weak, You pick me up when I am down, you are my voice of reason, you teach me how to do things the right way everyday. I sometimes even get angry with how you NEVER compromise on being good and righteous. I know that life with you will be a journey where I will never stop learning and growing and I can't wait to do life with you.




It's been such a wonderful journey learning and discovering God with you, I know that the future is bright. There is so much ahead and so many gifts that God as ahead of us that we will open and unwrap together.

There is no us without God, through our ups and downs God as always been the centre and will continue to be our centre, our rock, our resting place. I am writing this in appreciation of you, few will get it, many will hate it but only you and I truly understand it.

We have seen friends come and go and have become better people for it., some come for a season, others for a reason and only few are for a life time. Either ways you are my life time and even if everyone comes and go's it will always be me and you.
So to my Best Friend, my soul mate, my greatest cheer leader, here's to the future. No this is not my Vows, way too soon for that :-)


My Attitude Of Praise - Praise is Gratitude.


As the Year draws to an end, we tend to reflect on the year as a whole. Our successes as well as our failures, our strengths as well as our weaknesses, what we want to keep and what we want to change in 2014.

2013 as really been my year of most growth, as I reflect on it through the good and the bad of it all, I don't believe that there is anything that I would change.

I look back and think of one thing in particular, something that I have been asking and wanting from God for so long and I will continue to trust him for but even so, even though I did not get it in 2013, I had to come to a point of realisation that I have so many other things to be thankful to God for in 2013 and It would be so bad to simply forget all my 2013 blessings just for one thing that is still within my reach when God's timing comes.

God as a funny sense of humour because this year more than any other year, I have learnt and I am still learning, you see God is teaching me to Submit to him wholeheartedly and to Praise him and I mean really Praise him in the Storm.





God as a way of just bringing me to my knees and making me praise him even when its raining and storming and there seems to be no sunshine, he makes me realise that he is my sunshine and it is in him that I will find security and peace.
.
In my times of storm in 2013, I have had to hold on to his promises and continue to trust that even when it doesn't seem like it and I want to curl up and roll over and give up, God is preparing me for greater things. The greatest times of my life are still ahead of me and the devil would love nothing better than to have me give up, lose the faith and curl up
.
This year was also filled with ups and I definitely have alot to be thankful to God for because he as truly been there and done alot of good things this year and as I look to the future and wrap up this year, I can only sit and be in awe of the goodness of God over me and my loved ones.

2014 is my wedding year and I am so much looking forward to spending the rest of my life with the second love of my life after God. I am looking forward to planning our wedding with friends and loved ones that we hold so dare to us.
I am looking forward to sharing the happiest day of my life as I make the second most important decision (after giving my life to God) with my closest friends and family.



Storms will come and go but it is what you do in your times of storm that defines you, it defines who you are and who you will become. It defines what God will do with your storms if you sit back and let him be in control.

Choose to praise God in your times of difficulties and hardship, look to God, the author and finisher of your faith.

So what ever went well in 2013, nurture it, be grateful to God for it,  for it is not by your own strength but it is by the grace of our almighty God and what ever did not go well in 2013, praise God anyways and thank him for his plans for your life for God desires an attitude of praise from us in every area and every situation of our lives.

Therefore in  glorious days,  praise God and in times of ruin,  praise him still.


PAISE GOD, PRAISE YOU FATHER. YOU ARE MY ALL IN ALL.
