I write as I am led by the spirit, on my Christian journey. Christianity is a process and we all have our shortcomings. You will definitely read stuff that you don't hear at the pulpit do not take my word for it just check with the bible. As it is written test the spirits.

My JESUS Encounter
Well this is my new blog detailing my thoughts and my take on the my new found love that is JESUS. Well I have been a christian for quite a while now. I was raised up in seventh day Adventist church. I even went to junior secondary school there in one of their schools. Matandani to be precise. I continued attending church like routinely till 2000 then I never stepped into a church for almost nine years. In that period I drunk so much alcohol I never bothered with anything to do with GOD. I was the number one critic of pentecostal churches in fact of all churches. I started questioning a lot about seventh-day their teaching and everything else. It just did not appeal to me anymore. Honestly too many restrictions I felt I have one life to live and I wanted to enjoy to the fullest. Fast forward end of 2010 I had some challenges I tried everything then my wife says why don't you try coming to church there is an over night at the church. Mind you it was a pentecostal church believe me that was the last place ever for me to be. So reluctantly I went with her. That night we came in late found people in a circle and we joined the circle immediately the pastor came towards me and started prophesying big things that i will do in the kingdom of GOD including his church. Honestly in my mind I was like is this for real? It would have made more sense if they were prophesying to my wife she was a regular but me. As soon as he finished another woman pastor started prophesying again more and more things that GOD was gonna do in my life believe me it did not make sense to me. I must confess I remember saying in my heart GOD is this for real is it really you then I said in my heart let it be done according to your will. I went home forgot all about that and one day I picked up the bible. The moment I started reading I fell in love with Christ JESUS. I told my wife the way I understand the bible is not like what most of these preachers preach. The bible is talking about the grace of GOD and no one is preaching it. Now four years down the line I have never looked back.
