Title: No Darkness in Him.

-

 If I say, Surely the darkness shall cover me; Even the night shall be light about me. Yea, the darkness hideth not from thee; But the night shineth as the day: The darkness and the light are both alike to thee.‭ Psalm 139:11-12 KJV‬.
Devotion: Darkness of night might be strange to people of the first world but to some of us power outage is regular and darkness has no meaning. We walk through it and have no fear.
 In this life one cannot live without coming across dark moments when all seem dark and gloomy and you think maybe it should be over now. Honestly what you see depends on what you think or imagine in your mind. A colleague of mine was posted to a (very) rural clinic as house officer. A village without electricity and no good source of water. We all pitied him but he went and saw the good side of the place. He saw opportunity to become raw food merchant and within the posting of 3 months he made a fortune, bought a car, saved enough money to travel out soon after the internship. He saw the bright side.
 When we commit any sin, let us not hide from God, he sees us just as He saw David. None can hide from God. Let us come to seek mercy and God will restore us. 
  When the sky is dark and gloomy, as children of God, let's focus on Jesus, if we do, we will always see the bright side of life and will have no fear. Let's open our minds to him in prayers, let us trust Him no matter what the situation is. Jesus will shine His light into it and we will have testimonies. Cheer up, Hallelujah.

Title: When your time shall be over, you'll fly away.

Psalms 90:10  The days of our years are threescore years and ten; and if by reason of strength they be fourscore years, yet is their strength labour and sorrow; for it is soon cut off, and we fly away. Devotional: Late music legend – Peter Tosh sang a song with this title many years ago. It came to mind yesterday while I listened to a beautifully delivered sermon at a burial. I therefore penned this devotional on same title. Do not be deceived, at a point in your life you’ll fly away.   There comes a day when the tapestry of your earthly existence is folded. The moments of struggle, joy, triumph, and trials will all coalesce into a story complete. When that time comes, the soul, unburdened by the weight of the mortal frame, ascends beyond the veil of this world—taking flight toward eternal rest.   You are not bound to the temporal; your essence is celestial. As the Psalmist declared, "The days of our years are threescore years and ten...it is soon cut off, and we ...
