When Death is the Beginning of Life

 

Maranatha

I have beaten the medical specialist predictions  on the amount of time I have left in this world. I am not proud or arrogant about it as I know as the sun rises in the east and sets in the west, everything is dependent on my Heavenly Father, God the Son and the Holy Ghost. I have nothing to boast about to God. This is going to be my shortest blog ever written by me these past 8 years. This is neither a pre-emptive eulogy or anything related to it. It is a story where at the background of it is a landscape dabbed in pain and more pain than I can bear to tell. My heart goes out to the millions that have gone through what I am going through and many still going through the fine line that divides life from death. 

I will not quote a single verse from the bible because they are all relevant. They reveal the story of one Man who knew from the day He was born that He was going to die so that many may live through His death. His pain He bore with dignity accepting the fate he was destined to face from the first day He spoke His first words. That is bravery above bravery, courage above courage and Love above Love. For 33 years he has no roof to sleep above His head, He did not grumble or whine but He withstood everything the people He was going to save who threw everything they got at Him. No man, no not even any supernatural man could wistand what he withstood because He was not a Man. 

When He grew up, He told the people, give me your poor, your hungry, your sick, your downtrodden and those whom the world discards as not human. They are my brothers and sisters. One day they will sit with me at the right side of the throne of glory. 

One day, quite soon I will go but the words I leave with you with remain until eternity. So be it, my work has been accomplished.

Today is the day after Wednesday, a cloudy windy evening showing signs of an impending downpour. It isn't supposed to be the rainy season  but the laws of nature have been turned and twisted by man's callousness towards what God has bestowed upon them as his gifts to be enjoyed and to protect the environment God has placed men in to breed and live.
