I still blog when I just feel that I need to express my feelings and write down the revelations God has given me so that I don't get drown by the waves and lightnings but when the storm hits, I can be like Jesus, sleeping soundly in the rocky ship having faith in God that everything is still under His control.
I am preaching to myself.
The self that is demotivated and small, but God sees me as mighty for He chose me for this task.
What task? To build what I've been given. For He has prepared me for such a season as this? But this self still wonders if HE has prepared me for this, then why am I struggling? All the mistakes, all the failures all the challenges, all the things that could possibly go wrong, all the things that went wrong, all the only if, and even if and still fail and so much negativity. And when we say where is God in this? Where is Jesus?
He is not here, he is not in the death, in the negativity in the failures. For He has risen. And I need to go to Galilee , away from these negative thoughts ---- there I will see Him. I need to move from the south (where Jerusalem is) and move up to the north (where Galilee is). (Matt 28:1-10)
I am learning to be firm in the storm, will I let this storm now shake me? Never. Why, for I know if My God is for me who can be against me.
Breakthroughs are hard to come by. Who says breakthroughs are easy.
When Jesus was tempted in the desert, He was challenged to doubt his identity - satan said If you are the Son of God TWICE ---- didn't Jesus knew who he was? Of course He did. But yet Satan questioned it, Jesus counter it with what God would do, His heart. It meant, I AM the Son of God, even if I didn't do what you ask me to.
so to these questions:
If you are a lawyer then you shouldn't have made these mistakes - if I made these mistakes then I'm not a good lawyer, but it doesn't change the fact that I am still a good lawyer, mistakes happen and we need to learn from it.
If you are a faithful builder, you would not fall for these minor challenges
No i would not fall i just would not fall.
Jesus help me i need you to come clear my mind again. set me on the right train of thoughts again.

This man
This man is my gift from God.
This man has challenged me, stuck with me, encourage me, prayed with me and set me on to a whole new level in my faith.
This man showed me the true meaning of carrying the cross and living for Christ every single day.
This man showered me with so much love and support and showed me true love, like how Christ would put our needs before himself.
This man taught me to be firm and have faith in God in whatever that I do.
This man is unshaken, a rock to the rock that I am.
This man has confidence that is so firm I know it comes from the Lord.
This man is incredible because his heart is completely sold out to Christ above. His heart is a reflection of his obedience to obey the word of God in everything he does.
This man does not just talk, but he walks the talk.
This man is not afraid of admitting his wrong, but apologises when he knows his mistakes.
This man strives for the best and challenges himself to give his best to God, his family and friends.
This man.
This man.
I call him a man because he knows who he is in Christ. I call him a man because he offers his woman strength whenever he can. I call him a man because he willingly sacrifices his time, energy and whatever he can to see his woman grow. I call him a man because he fights, he fights to gain his portion, he fights to gain his inheritance, he fights to win his woman's heart, he fights for his family's salvation.
He knows what it takes to get there, to be successful. He knows the price to be paid, and he will willingly pay it whenever he is required to. He knows the value of humility and strives hard to only please God in all he thinks, says and does.
He knows a lot of things, yet like Paul I know indeed, he counts everything as loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus our Lord. For his sake, he has and willingly will suffer the loss of all things and count them as rubbish, in order that he may gain Christ. Phillipians 3:8
This is Glenn. Indeed.... a man after God's own heart.

Let my life revolve around Christ
I guess I've abandoned this blog for quite some time now. But this blog has markings of the different seasons I went through in the past and it is a place where I write down things that I've been convicted about and that I feel will be a blessing to others as they read them, apart from that it is my personal sanctuary and diary of rants and what nots when I need to.
January 2014 marks the beginning of a new year. More than that a new season that I've been entering into. I'm transitioning into adulthood as I've been writing about lately.
God is really dealing with the core of my character, the moulding and sharpening of my weaknesses. Running a law firm albeit not on your own but being a partner with only a year over experience can be daunting sometimes. But I find it a challenge, an honour that I would have such an opportunity, and I know God already promised me that He will send people to help me along the way - and He certainly did.
I get lost sometimes in just the everyday day to day work. But God has been gracious in reminding me of what's important and the focus for this year.
Execution is key. Putting down the dreams and vision God gave us (my dad and I) for this firm into black and white and later executing it is vital for the Firm to move in the direction God wants to take us. I'm learning to take one step at a time but at times I can be very impatient asking whether I am too slow in doing the thing I need to do or that things need to be moving faster than it should be now.
Prayer is key. I know and admit that I've not been praying very much for the firm and I'm learning to take ownership still of the things God has placed in my hands.
Renewal is key. That in our walk, there will be times when we grow cold or dry and we need to be renewed in the mind, spirit and body. To not neglect that alone time with God, to make it a point to sit at His feet, to make time, to not get distracted.
To walk by faith and not by sight.
To live in the present, don't worry about the future, keep dreaming and dream big, keep focus.
To not only know the acts of God but know His ways also.
To not let my heart be hardened.
To be reminded that Jesus is the centre of all things; my life.
