The People In My Life

Have you ever met anybody you’re just so grateful for? Like you just know that without that person the course of your life would have been different and I don't mean that in a bad way. It kinda feels like your meeting was divinely orchestrated and you’re just grateful that they’re in your life and they mean the entire world to you. Well, I have met not just one person like that but an entire family.
My spiritual family; where do I begin?
These people are literally everything to me, they mean much more than the world to me, I mean yeah, some more than others but I love every single one of them. Most of them were people that I’d known for a while but never really spoke to until God decided that it was time to start breaking and joining and all of a sudden we hit it off and now we are a family in every sense of the word.
It’s nice and it is also advisable to surround yourself with people that have the same vision as you, people that share your ideologies, that have the same destination, that flow with the same wavelength and at the same frequency as you in order to help you grow, become better, maintain your focus and ‘blessedly’ for me I have found my people, my team, my friends; my destiny companions.
These people can make you so mad but they can also put the world’s biggest smile on your face and I honestly would not trade them for anything. Yeah, you may wonder why I’m writing this, you know like how is it benefitting you, to be very honest, I don’t think it's beneficial to you in any way, it’s just sometimes my heart swells with so much love when I think of them, and I feel like the way I express myself best is by writing, so I took to the keyboard of my computer to pour out what I was feeling, but even now, I realize that I don’t have enough words or the ability to describe and express the way I feel about these people, my CIF ( Christ Invading Force ) family, my home away from home.
Sometimes when I think about how I want to go back to Nigeria, I still have reservations in my heart because I don’t want to be away from these little ones for too long, there’s so much spiritual and physical excitement. Ugh, who would have known serving God, that becoming born- again would be the best decision I could ever make in my entire life, it is so exciting, the Holy Spirit continually keeps you on your toes, there’s always more to know, more to see, more to learn, more gushers to hit, more rivers to drown in.
I literally cannot get enough of God and the life He gives and to think that I actually thought that I was living my best life as a sinner, I thought that giving my life to Christ would mean that I would miss out on the fun things of life but little did I know that giving my life to Christ would be the actual start of my life because as it turns out, up until that moment, I had just been existing and I had no idea. You know the worst thing in life is for your life to be wasting and fading away right before your eyes and you don’t even realize it, it is such a tragedy.
Okay so I think that I might have digressed a little but I just had to give you guys a sneak peek into the peaceful and exciting heaven on earth that is my life. It’s not because I’m special, it’s not because I did anything differently but it’s the grace and mercy of God that every human happens to have access to; all you have to do to enjoy it is to open your heart and let Him in because there is nothing He wants more than to have a relationship with you, to be able to call you His child and fellowship with you on a regular basis. His heart literally f for you.
Have you ever wondered what it’s like for someone to be so madly in love with you that you’re on their mind every second of every hour of every day? Well, you don’t have to wonder anymore because that is exactly how God feels about you.
