My Father

My Father

It has been a tailspin since the last time on this page. The next time you ask me to pack my bags, you can be sure that I will definitely know what might come my way! Phew! It has definitely been a swirl of time; however I will not trade it for another. So much learning and so much growing; so much grace and so much favour all at the same time!

Father only you can hatch a plan this special and I am so proud and grateful to be called your own. Who would have thought that I Taramide will marry let alone travel to another land for mission work for you? Who would have thought that while I was wasting on the streets you had such grand plans for me? Who would have thought?

Father, today as I write for this last edition of the year 2013 I look back to the years, and the journey so far and all I can do is bow in humility and worship you. Nobody who knew me those days can apprehend the change! Some came for the wedding just to make sure Tim knew what he was doing! Thank you Father for giving me the grace to share every dirty secret with him! Lord I bow in awe of you.

At the camp where you sent us for Missions work I met someone Lord, she reminded me of my life and where I used to be and the first day we shared; I couldn’t stop crying… sometimes I wonder at how the enemy takes our quest for greatness and perverts it. After crying, I couldn’t help but marvel at what you can do with the most broken of vessels! And all I can do is just spread face down on the floor in gratitude.

On the wedding day, our theme song was King of kings majesty by Jarrod Cooper, and the line that got me bawling every time is the one that says ‘in royal robes I don’t deserve, I live to serve your majesty. Lord this sums the story of my life. There is nothing I want to be alive for, but to serve you every day of my life, with all that you have given me.

All that I am, all that I will ever be, all that you have given me I lay them all down today, committed and determined to remain aligned with you my Father and my God, for to you be all the glory, great things you have done in my life.

Of course,Tim sends his love! Father thank you so much for seeing me as you made me even when I saw nothing.

Thank you for choosing to love me this much.

Taramide is definitely souled and sold out to you God of heaven.

I love you so much

Tara
