DAY 4: MY MOMENTS IN HIS TIME~ Titilope Martins


My moments in His time are numerous, sort of like the sands on the seashore, I try to number them but sometimes I lose count. My moments in His time have been pure bliss, sometimes culminating in nights of tears seemingly unending, and of mornings with sweet joy and laughter.

The days fly by,and my memory threatens to walk out on me, but I am reminded of the moment when He chose to save my soul. When he fought that battle and won me whole. Hmmmmm, nothing like young love. Ours was fresh like the morning dew, filled with nights when I could feel His prescence in the wind and days when I could hear His voice clear as crystal.

I recall the moment when my heart threatened to fail,when that love that was thought to be the love strayed and walked away. It was His hand that held me up,it was His love that lifted my head like the horn of a unicorn and helped me  love again.



And that moment when Daddy took his last breath,when it seemed like the world was crashing down on little me and He stooped low enough to cradle my sobbing frame and promised from then on to father me.

I am reminded of  the moment when He healed me of that disease,when doctors said "oh let's' see how it goes" but He stretched His mighty hand and removed it all, leaving the Doctors with nothing left to see.


It was the moment He supplied that need,when I should have been stranded but He came through for me. It was the moment He opened a door for me when thousands were waiting in line for a window. It is the moments I am yet to see;that walk down the aisle,that look in my husband's eyes as we exchange our vows. The feel of my children cradled in my arms,my dreams unfolding right before my eyes.


My best moments are yet to be lived,I believe that my best life is on the other side of this divide,to be lived in that life called eternity in the presence of the one who has been everything, the one who makes all my moments beautiful in His time.

  5. I'm reading this and I'm thinking of the wonderful moments I've had...moments of worship, moments of peace, moments when all you can do is cry, moments when God came through when I wasn't expecting Him.

    Awesome read
