Hello my Lord,
I hear that You know me. I hear that You have plans for me. I have finally listened to all I have been hearing around. I have realized that I need you in my life. I make this choice even though I may not understand the path you have planned for me. All I know is that from all my choices, this is the best plan. I look forward to a life that I see from these secondary school Christan Union students. Despite being young, some of them hold a conviction that is otherworldly. I’d be lying my Lord if I didn’t say I was curious. I will therefore overcome this fear answer this call. I now stand in front of my peers, lift up my heart and receive You.
Yours faithfully,
Your son to be?
Hello my Lord,
It’s me again. I still remember the day that I professed my faith and received You. It was one of the most crucial days in my life. I feel as though I have set my ways straight, of course through the words of Your mouth. I have been meditating upon them night and day trying not to depart from them. I enjoy the discipleship classes that I have been attending. My teacher is a student from the Technical University of Kenya (Of course I know You know). I know that the Holy Spirit is my helper and will be with me forever. That is no doubt. My greatest trial is to walk in step with Him to get the fruit of love. My greatest temptation so far to be honest in my life with you is the School Entertainment on Saturdays. I had underestimated how high I had placed movies and music in the pecking order of life. I had not realized how chained I was until I was set free but even with all addictions, there are withdrawal symptoms. I now thank You for the revelation and pray that You will strengthen me even the more. Also, my KCSE is coming up but I know that as long as I commit my plans unto You, they will be established according to Your will.
Yours faithfully,
Your son.
Hello my Lord,
It’s been a while (I don’t want to say years). I have been wrapped up in a lot of what I thought was beneficial for me but wasn’t. What I remember from my discipleship days is that the Holy Spirit is with us forever. My prayer right now is that, let me hear Him once more as loudly as I did in the past. I am sorry that I strayed from the straight path and stumbled upon rocks and thorns and I feel stuck in this place called Hard Cardia (hard heart). This dark place has made me appreciate Your goodness and mercies. My mind still goes back to the day I joined campus after I passed my KCSE (Thanks for that by the way). I fell for the façade that I would tackle Christianity on my own (I took working out my salvation literally and forgot that it was about the daily relationship between You and I); dimming the light I once was. As the fire that was in me started dying down and I became cool to the world, the voice of He that You sent kept becoming quieter. Thank You for your word because today, even in my tired and hangover state, I dusted off my old bible pages and heard you. I know there is there is nothing I can do to atone for all I have done in my few years of university but I plead once more for Your blood to cleanse all my sins. I promise that onwards, I will be more intentional to seek You.
Yours faithfully,
Your son.
Hello my Lord,
I believe we talk these days (I, however, do most of the talking). I thank You so much for everything You have done for me and I do not take it for granted. I also ask You that You help me be humble even when I realize that walking in step with your Spirit is the best thing for me. I thought I knew the fruit of the Spirit, but everyday my understanding keeps evolving. You were right about love, because you are the embodiment of it and that is the greatest lesson I am reminded of everyday. I still struggle with some things but I am seeing an upward trajectory and you are changing my ways. These days I worry not about my tomorrows because they take care of themselves. Furthermore, I now understand that taking part in your work is a privilege and therefore I am grateful that I can now help others who were like me in my previous letters to You. It is still mind-boggling. Any-who, I just wanted to thank you Mr. True Vine and abiding in You is the best thing I have done in my life. I hope my branches will be fruitful and I will do you proud.
Thanks again,
Your legitimate son, Donata Kut.
Hebrews 12:5-8 “And have you forgotten the exhortation that addresses you as sons? “My son, do not regard lightly the discipline of the Lord, nor be weary when reproved by him. For the Lord disciplines the one he loves, and chastises every son whom he receives.” It is for discipline that you have to endure. God is treating you as sons. For what son is there whom his father does not discipline? If you are left without discipline, in which all have participated, then you are illegitimate children and not sons.
