“Your faith has saved you; go in peace.”

As I sit here typing this, I know my faith is what kept me afloat past few weeks when my mental health was at its lowest. I felt anxious and extremely homesick. I wanted to leave work and get home and did just that last weekend and felt so amazing seeing my friends and family!

I can empathize with the sinful lady wiping the feet of Jesus with her tears , I could feel my heart leap with joy when I landed home and saw my family. i saw my parents in good health and absolutely perfectly in faith, it revived my faith and made me realise I just need to spare time for the Lord i my daily routine more frequent than needed.

Let us put down our sinful ways and love the lord like the lady in todays reading. Let us hug the lord and embrace our faith with full gusto and ask for forgiveness and move forward in our lives with His grace over us.

AMEN
