My goodness ...

My foundation has been shaken a couple of times and I realise that God is moving me into the place where I am supposed to be.  I find it difficult to always stay focused and stay in prayer.  I find that my current position makes me feel miserable and I am tired of the negative vibe in the office.

"Everyone must submit himself to the governing authorities, for there is no authority except that which God has established." Romans 13: 1

Forgiven




Favour and Blessings for you today, it is my prayer that you would enjoy God’s love, grace and healing wherever you are.  Forgiving our friends, family or colleagues for some offense they performed against us is often difficult.  People are imperfect and can do the strangest things.  You may have taken offence by a word or action against you.  Perhaps someone has said or done something to cause you to really feel angry at them.  You find that forgiving them for their trespasses don’t sit well with you.  The problem with forgiveness is that once you keep the offence in your heart you grow another seed called bitterness.   The thing about bitterness is that it grows really fast.  People who tend to be bitter have suffered a really bad ordeal and the forgiving of the offense seems impossible.   Why would you forgive someone who hurt you and still gets away with their offenses?  Simple, they don’t even realise you are struggling with forgiveness and carry on with their own lives, it doesn’t really affect them.  You on the other hand have these thoughts that plague you constantly and the more you dwell on the topic the bitter you become.

My friend the first step to forgiving someone is to actually speak it out load so that your own ears can hear what you have said.  The next step would be to phone or write the person tell them “I forgive you for doing this”, it doesn’t mean you agree with what has happened but it means you have dealt with it and you are moving on.  Then write it on a piece of paper and go and burn it as a symbol that you have put it behind you.
God is faithful and will always help you through your trials and tribulations.  Lift up your heart, body and soul to the Lord so that He may heal you.  Isaiah 43: 19 ‘For I am about to do something new.  See, I have already begun!’  

Father God, in the name of Your Son Jesus Christ I pray for the forgiveness of sin in my own life.  Lord I forgive the people You know I have identified for the offenses they have done against me.  Lord I speak life into their lives and set them free.  Lord I humble myself before You and ask that by Your mercy and grace You will lift me up again.  Lord I ask that You sewer the seeds of un-forgiveness and bitterness in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ, replacing these two bad seeds with compassion and gentleness.  In Jesus Christs Name I pray.  Amen

Supernatural Favour



Joshua was one of those guys that hung around Moses and Aaron and he wanted to experience the supernatural favour of God in his own life.  Wherever Moses went Joshua was in toe.  Joshua was really positioning himself to get to know God through walking and talking with Moses and Aaron.  By being faithful in service to Moses and Aaron, Joshua walked in the favour of God.  ‘That day the LORD exalted Joshua in the sight of all Israel; and they revered him all the days of his life …’ Joshua 4: 14. 

It is my desire to pray for you this evening, I want to pray and ask the Lord God to bless all my family and friends with His supernatural favour.  I want to ask that each person that reads my blog will enjoy the supernatural favour of God in their own lives and that they will know God is out there for all of them.  

This little word that is out there … Lord blesses this word that it may return to You.  Lord thank You for Your supernatural favour in my own life and thank You for this opportunity in spreading Your word.
In the name of Jesus Christ … Amen

Dream




I have many dreams but the one I dream about is going away for about a week to Bora-Bora with my husband. Swimming in the see, laying on the deck in the sun and soaking up some sun rays.  We can dream and who know God is great I will still have that opportunity.

So heres to my dream, Lord I would love to go to the Island of Bora-Bora.
How beautiful!! Wowo

Not everyone is out to get you! ( Note to self!!! )



Good morning, don’t you want to make today one of those days where you clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness and walking in humility, gentleness and being patient with all the people around you.  Let’s take a softer approach when we deal with our own families and friends.  It seems we are harsher with the people closest to us than with strangers we don’t even know.  Why do you think we do that?  We forget that these people closest to us are actually our loved ones. 

I want to challenge you today to clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patient.  Let’s put this out there and work on this today.  Let’s remind ourselves that not everybody is out to get us, especially the people closest to us.  So let me know how your day went.

A verse to meditate on while we pursue our goal in being more gentle and kinder:  Colossians 3: 12 ‘As God’s chosen people, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience.’

Psss you! Hmmm? Yes you.




These flowers are for you. Don’t you know that you are one of my favourite friend?  Yes, You!  I don’t want others to know this; but you really are great!!  I like your smile and I like your laughter.  It’s so nice to see you sitting behind your desk reading my blog.  Thank you!

Today’s tip: 

Galatians 6: 9

‘and let us not grow weary while doing good, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.’  

Subscribe to being kinder and by looking for the good in all your friends and family. 

Stay focused and don’t gossip. 

Once you get that under control you will be friendlier and more appreciated by your family and friends. 

Become that nice guy.

Blessing my Grandchildren



A little girl has come into my life.  As a grandmother I am excited and happy to report to you that the Lord God has blessed our family with a beautiful little girl.  Born 21 October 2012 at 15h00 in Johannesburg.  This little darling has made her appearance and it is my great honour to announce the birth of this little girl.

As a granny of another beautiful littler girl aged 3 I want to speak a beautiful and blessed life into these two little girls’ lives.

My blessing for both of these little girls:  May the road ahead of them be filled with supernatural favour of God above and with man on earth.  May the Lord Jesus Christ be their High Priest and may they both be a blessing to their parents and wherever they go may people around them be blessed because of them.  May the Lord protect them and I plead the blood of Jesus Christ over both their lives.  May they know the Lord and be faithful to Him.  They are a blessing to our family and may the Lord bless them in the future.  May they know what they want to become one day and may they both pursue their dreams.  God bless my Grandchildren!
