Afri-tune week 164, am @johndoy0.
What an awesome and amazing week it is, am so so glad to welcome all creative genius in this community. Your entries are supper amazing, just facilitating comfort, peace, and joy to all members of the community. Again to the community leaders, words can appreciate your daily effort in the community, more greaze to your elbows.
For this week I will be doing a cover of a song, thou popular but very touching. Even though am not singing because of the emotions it will trigger in you but the transformation to your spirit is why. It is tilted " As the deer panteth".
It was recorded about a man in the Bible who was called a man after God's heart. This wasn't a sin free man that's because he committed so many things that where evilbut God was still okay with it by calling him the man after my heart.
This man was placed at that point because of his sincerity, honesty and willingness to make a you turn. One of the difficult thing for a man is to make a u-turn. This is not that the man doesn't wants to make the turn buthe always finds it difficult. But this man was different, the moment he noticed he did some thing bad, he immediately sort for forgiveness and he never go back to it again. So in one of his Psalms, he wrote that same. You know, what you crave for most times others tend to it from you position of the heart, how you relate, and by what you do.
The song was derived from the book of Psalms 42:1 which says "As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God. My soul thirsts for God, for the living God".
One thing about the animal used he is that no matter the miles, as along as it perceive water any where it goes for it, that's the extent at which it can go to just to satisfy it thirty.
God is not just seeking for numbers in his army rather he is looking for men who what come may they will still stay at their duty post not minding what the situation looks like. Do you know that you are free from the operation of the devil when you are in his territory? But to be honest with you, you are not, this is because you become his experimental tool. You don't have the ability, capability and energy to stand against his shorts of arrows, but do you know that by the time you know your placement in God he becomes scared of you even though most times he tries his luck to see if he can trust you down from your stand point.
