I'm glad I've grown quite a bit in the Lord throughout this one
year. Last year during this period, I would be in town every saturday
'hanging out'. Sundays would be for attending church as and when I felt
like it or whenever my friends were free. Profanities were rampant in
my speech, cursing at every indiscretion, nonchalant about the kind of
image I was bringing across to people who didn't know me; what kind of
impression they would have of me, none would be good, obviously. Then
in july, God knew that he had to intervene in my life before it became
any worse then it already was. He wasn't gonna let me fall further away
from Him, deeper into this world; Gavin invited me to Culture and life
has never been the same. Here was a place where the people had fun
without resolving to shrewd humour/ behaviour, this bunch knew how to
enjoy each other's company as it was, having good clean unadulterated
fun. Never have I felt this way in secondary school.
It is amazing how much God can change an individual in a span of just a year, even I myself am in awe. I'd never imagine experiencing God so intimately, so personally.
Anyway,
this year's birthday was alright, nothing too fancy. A simple dinner and a birthday cake affair. I do like the present my
brother gave me though; Finding a life partner by Pastor Prince. Only partially applicable to me as of now but still its good to have that
advice when the time comes to look for that significant other.
