“Trust and Obey” is one of my favourite hymns and one phrase easily heard in church but let’s take a pause and really look at the word TRUST and OBEY .
TRUST is complete dependence on someone or something while OBEDIENCE is complete submission.
These two words holds the key to complete happiness in Christ according to the psalmist but then if we truly look at it we would find that indeed it does.
Happiness can truly be found in Christ if we complete depend on Him and obey His word to the latter. Sometimes when we don’t find the happiness, it is either because we trust without obedience, or we obey nonchalantly.
We believe what He says He will do but we are not willing to do what he has said we should do and sometimes when we do, it’s just to fulfil all righteousness but not trusting in our heart. We unconsciously fix alternatives because of our doubts.
When working with God, we need to fix our complete resolve in Him knowing that “He will never leave us nor forsake us and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.”
When we truly and wholeheartedly trust and obey, you would sure find God’s word living through you and joy will always be found in your heart.

Where has “the LOVE” gone?
Broken homes are beginning to take the lead in this country and I couldn't help but ask why? Back in the 60s,70s,80s and even 90s the reverse was the case. You could happily see couples who had lasted 20,30 years and even more with so much excitement on their faces as they are happy to conquer more years together so I couldn't help but ask what changed? Over time I have been made to believe that love is a very important factor in choosing your spouse and so long as you both love each other then you are good to go because you would be able to conquer the hurdles together and sail through deep seas together but I can’t see that happening and I can’t help but ask “WHERE HAS THOU LOVE GONE”. It seems love is actually not all it takes anymore because recently I stumbled on three marriages whose love has gone sour and the partners are willing to hit the road because they are tired and these are couples with children. Am pretty sure the children were conceived because of the love...
