God shows us time and time again that He does not call the prepared, but that He prepares the called.

The meaning of census is an official count or survey of a population, typically recording various details of individuals.

The word Census appears in 36 occurrences and in 9 translations of the Bible. 

The current world population is 7.9 billion as of February 2022 according to the most recent United Nations estimates elaborated by Worldometer. World Population

As of the year 2020, Christianity had approximately 2.38 billion+ adherents out of a worldwide population of about 7.8 billion people. Christianity_by_country

That leaves 5.42 billion souls possibly searching to fill a void in their life. 

What puzzles me the most is... When I look around...most people seem to find God at various times in their lives and in many different ways? There are no set rules of engagement.

But much like the headlines many of us only stop and listen to His voice or the ”testimonies” of others when there is a life-altering moment, trauma, or gripping pain involved.

Is it that we can only relate when we witness someone drowning in their own life challenges or do we relate to the difficult times.

Or are we drawn to like-minded people? To share our sorrows, bleeding hearts, and or thoughts on a superficial level?

What if I tell you that I know where you can find the most understanding heart... Without all the pain, without trama, without being in the depths of despair... 

Yes, He is the most magnificent healer.  In all instants... He will relate to you on all levels...You do not need to feel like you hit rock bottom to talk to Him. 

Why do we feel that we can only approach Him when there is a problem... Why can't we just talk to Him...all the time? 

I say take Him off the shelf. Treat Him as if He is alive (because He is) and make Him a part of everything in your life.

He has committed to His children that He will be with us always .. Always, means for all the good, bad and ugly. He loves sharing in every facet of our lives... 

My story did not come from a dark past. Nor was there trama in my life. 

When I hear some of the most amazing life-changing testimonies, my story seems mundane. But for me, it has been the most amazing 3.5 years of my life!! And I feel very blessed to share in His message of love and hope. 

It seems that like me there are so many souls that the flame of His love seems to be dim??? I ask why are we floundering? Are we even aware that we are spiritually drained? 

I am proof He can kick start the flickering flame into a raging fire.  I can only assume that out of 5.42 billion souls that are searching to fill a void in their life, they may not be looking in the right places...

Please... Look His way... 

Open your heart to His LOVE .. Open your mind to His amazing possibilities.. and open your soul to a beautiful spiritual awakening. Allow Him to rock your mundane world...and set your soul on fire once again. 

Together let's tip the scales of believers one heart at a time!! ...  

His world is only one breath away. Just whisper His name... 

Elohim

It's Him, It's always Him!  

He had me at Hello... ❤❤❤

The Lord writes in the census book of the nations, "This one was born there." Psalm 87:6
