God loves us so much that he gives us second chances in our lives. He takes us through situations that hurt us so that he can show us what true healing feels like. He is the perfect God who would want to remind us why we are alive and would more than want to mold us into perfection.
Peter Kamau, better known as P.K has had an experience that shook him back to the course purposed for him by the Almighty God. He got an employment opportunity in Dubai for three months, working in the security sector. With a backing from his parents and close friends, he called the shots to his new beginning, an experience he lives to tell.
After working for about three months, he suddenly got sick. His temperature just rose, something he quite never understood why. A friend of his took him to hospital and saw a doctor who then took him to her house to rest. He went to catch some air in the balcony but the worst happened.
He woke in a hospital with the gloomy hospital ceiling staring its eyes on him. He recalls of how the doctors told him that he fell from the 3rd floor and how he had broken some of his ribs. He also talks of how he performed a second scan and they found his ribs intact. He however sustained several injuries on his leg, the back of his head and his back.
“I didn’t have that spiritual coverage, which I now know is needed, to protect us from such attacks. I believe that that was a demonic attack, and I thank God I escaped alive. Everyone considered me dead after falling three storeys high, but I cheated death, and here I am. I now just want to relentlessly seek and serve God, making Him known to every single part of this world, because He has given me another chance to live for Him because this life I’ve got is His.”
P.K’s testimony is a reminder to each and every one of us. We are alive by God’s grace, and so, we are called to live for His glory. In life, we may get distracted by so many things. The struggle to make ends meet, may entirely consume us everyday, that we forget the reason behind our everyday life. We forget to pray. We forget to read our Bibles and we also forget that there is a higher calling for all of us, we need to take it up, and pursue it.
PHILLIPIANS 3:14:-
I press on towards the goal unto the prize of the HIGH CALLING of God in Christ Jesus. (NKJV).
