Serving the Needy; In Memory of Mother

Serving the Needy; In Memory of Mother

When I set out to follow His leading to serve the needy, orphans, widows, and inspire greatness in the purpose of God, I never knew, to what extent. I had no job, education, or even a business plan that was working. All I had was an urgent desire to see to the need of others.

When I lost my Mother, on the sixth of September 2017, in a fatal motor accident, I found myself questioning a lot of things, especially about my purpose here on earth. We all mourn differently but for me, at first, I was shocked. Then I became depressed. At one time the devil kept whispering, “kill yourself! Your mother is dead, and you could not stop it” he nagged me until I cried out to God for help and my Savior came to my rescue, reminding me of a greater purpose of serving. I had so many questions, only God could answer, I could not hear, even when He spoke, because of the grief, religion did not make sense, nothing did for a long time. I felt lost, vulnerably helpless, I felt fear, I understood the confusion that comes with the loss of a mother who gave her all selflessly. Then came a stage of clarity and acceptance. I was aware of the needs of a motherless child, I understood that pain you see when around the orphan that does not go away even after giving them the world.

My Dad, thank God for him being a real Dad, as much as I loved him, I needed mother around. At this point I understood my father’s pain growing up with a mother alive but not with her love or presence. Hold that thought, that’s a testimony for another time.

God did not kill my mother, so I understand and experience a few things. He did not need to inflict me with such so that He could make a point. Neither did my mother know that she was going to die, if she did, she would have said a proper Saints goodbye. It was not because we did not pray enough, but simply the handprint of the wicked one. God turned the devil’s plot of using misfortune to bring confusion to an awareness of Truth. The evil one and his attempts in making the Child of God faithless and loveless, has been his one best-selling destructible plan, but our Saviour wins always. Yes, destructible because we are more than the conqueror.

A child remains a child even when old and will always need a mother and father. Imagine a child without none, imagine a child that has never known one, but knows only the streets. What about the one without a father, or that other child with irresponsible parents. The cruel reality of lack, loss, and rejection is real and it is the number one killer. Such children are often easily judged than loved, easily blamed than understood, raped than protected. Spiritually abused by Ministers that have no calling or are born again. These children are only imagined to become the black sheep of the community but a lot of them have become successful because someone dared to care.

Inspiring youths to thrive for the great in love. Pushing them towards that call and reminding them they were not put here for them alone is something I consider myself fortunate to do early. This pursuit has only given me peace, prosperity, and healing in my darkest hours.

How do you know what people need at a given time? You have to listen to God and follow as he leads, that’s how to know. The need for food, shelter, and security is caught sight of but to know a need takes God revealing it, the more intimate your relationship the better the reach. God’s bigger, the call is a call to be perfect and to love perfectly.

You have hard this call. It calls you to love perfectly, the Lord your God, and your neighbor as He has loved you. So what are you doing today, to make life a bit colorful for someone? Be that god they see so they can trust in the God they have not seen yet.

Glory to God for the time with mother, praise God she is in a better place. Missing her would never go away but on days when it is hardest to remember you are gone, I choose to trust God for peace and comfort.

I love you reader, the love he gave to you, must be put to use now. There is so much brokenness, be the healing like your Maker. I pray God’s word below comfort you today.

Therefore you too have grief now, but I will see you again, and your heart will rejoice, and no one will take your joy away from you. Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, your Aba Father, the Father of mercies, and God of all comfort.

I pray that you too will comfort those who are in any affliction with the comfort with which we are comforted by God. In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.”
