Hi Child of God,
I trust you’ve been well. It’s been a while, so I’d like to reintroduce myself.
I’m Elizabeth Oke, and I’m excited to share my thoughts with you as we walk this journey of faith together.
Welcome to “Keeping it Simple.” This name reflects my belief that seeking God doesn’t have to be complicated. When I say simple, I don’t mean it won’t take effort—simple just means it’s not meant to be difficult. Our journey to knowing God is a lifelong one. Even if you think you’ve learned a lot, God continually reveals new aspects of Himself.
Growing up, I struggled with my relationship with God. It seemed like everyone else had amazing encounters with Jesus and was always hearing from Him. I valued my relationship with God deeply, yet I often felt distant. I prayed, sought answers from those I admired, and eagerly attended Bible studies. Despite knowing Bible stories, I still felt something was missing. At times, I even wondered if God was real because of that distance.
But I’m grateful for God’s mercy and grace. Even when I struggled to feel His presence, I now understand that He was always with me. My goal is to help you desire to know God and to understand that He’s never far from you. I want you to experience a fulfilling relationship with Him.
How would you rate your relationship with God? Is walking with Him something you find enjoyable, or does it feel like a hassle? I’d love to hear your thoughts.
Blessings,
Elizabeth
