HE HAS A PLAN

Time has been running so fast of late and a lot has happened, so much has happened.
on 3rd October i lost my Uncle, Uncle Joseph Okema, he is history, he Died and that is taking me time to process and there is no time i missed lectures and need to catch up so i do not have time to even think about the fact that he is Gone and try to understand how that happened, all i know is that it happened he is dead.
Do i want this to be about Death, well if i know how death worked i would have written about it but no, i do not think i want to, i have learnt to live life to the fullest.
Live your life today like there will be no tomorrow taking one step at time is what i have cultivated. doing your best today for you will never know if tomorrow will come. That does not mean you do not plan for the future but have it in mind that anything and anyone can die anytime.
on 9th October i buried my uncle, at one point during the burial i thought the world was coming to an end. i could not believe what had happened and why i was in the village, nothing made sense.
When we lose the people we love, we wonder what happened, we grieve a lot in different ways and the one thing we all have is we can not do anything, with so much pain we cry, we ask God why, and then ask him for the next step froward, for strength. He gives all of that to us and it is up to us to receive what he is giving unto us.
there is abundant Love in death, yeah know this is not making sense, what i am saying is when we lose someone, God knows exactly how we feel, all the emotions involved and there he wraps his arms around us and comforts us, during that time that my uncle died, every night i slept like a child, like i was sleeping in someone's arms, there was a warmth around us as if letting us know my uncle is in safe hands and we need not to worry. There was Love in the atmosphere i could almost touch it, with all the pain around, love prevailed.
this is beyond human understanding, now the phrase Love is as strong as Death makes so much sense, this comes to everyone no matter who you are and where you are from When you lose someone you love there is a calmness around and it is up to you to decide to trust your life in the hands of the one you do not see or morn and have your life wasted and yet you can do nothing to bring back the dead. they are actually in a better condition than you are in at that moment or even at all moments.
The death of mu uncle has taught me how to appreciate people and not to take for granted the scriptures and know that god is all knowing, he knows all things and he has the best plan for us, no matter how weired somethings may look and how cruel they may seem he has a plan, in all things he has a plan. HE DOES HAVE A PLAN
