*DAILY DEW 11/AUGUST/2022*
*LIVING WITNESSES*
_Key Bible Text:_
*"We write to you about the Word of life, which has existed from the very beginning. We have heard it, and we have seen it with our eyes; yes, we have seen it, and our hands have touched it. When this life became visible, we saw it; so we speak of it and tell you about the eternal life which was with the Father and was made known to us.."* (1John 1:1-2 (GNB))
_Bible Insight:_
It was in 2017, a member of our local church had gone to serve in the South-south. He met another young man who had known me here on FB, but to his surprise, his remarks about me were like...'that Adebowale Ibukun, always acting like he is the only holy person, always talking about God's will...blah blah' (paraphrased). He didn't know he was talking to my church member. I heard it and laughed it off.
You see, I know that our definition of being real as believers is mostly about being carnal and ungodly and acting like mere men. Many don't believe God's word really changes lives. It's easier to stan someone who says 'I'm a Jesus person but I no too well like that o...I go change am for you', than to love someone who believes the fruit of the Spirit is not just on paper, neither is it forced, but a true yield and influence in the lives of those who commit to the things of the Spirit. If this passes for self righteousness, let me say it loud and clear:
*_People who devote their times to studying God's word for hours weekly and praying, attending church, cannot be the same with people who flip the pages once in a while._* We all don't have the same commitments and so we cannot act the same way! It's just the fact! Some years ago, there were things I thought were unreal as I saw people live that way, but mehn the story has changed simply because I went after their kind of commitment. For some of us, who we are ONLINE is who we are OFFLINE. If you were to pay us a visit, we won't need to dress up our space to look it.
Also, if there's anyone who's shared his past, and the struggles with morality, citing specific cases of addictions, even on this space, it's yours truly. I've always portrayed myself as a trophy of God's grace.
_MEDITATION:_
*"Jesus transforms people. I'm one of them and I'm not ashamed to say it. If it's unreal to you, you haven't tasted it. Come taste, and see the Lord is good..."*
