Yvette's Whispers of Faith

Without realising it I have taken a ‘time-out’ when I got married and moved towns.   There is no jobs in this place and should you find something it just isn’t worth your time. To make matter even more interesting I decided to start my own business and I did everything possible to get going.   It has been one struggle after another and it just doesn’t want to go anywhere.   I have come to the conclusion that I am not able to do this in my own strength and that only the Lord God is able to help me. I have decided to wait on the Lord now as my efforts aren’t paying off and I seem to be walking into a brick wall.   Now it seems I have taken a leave of absence of work and society.   I am alone most of the time with myself and my own thoughts which by the way can be very scary.   If you don’t like yourself it could be very difficult.   Ah, but I don’t mind being alone, I like the peace and quiet and I read the word of God.   I believe when the time...

  I like Red Bull and I must tell you they are radical but when it comes to my Lord Jesus Christ and people making a fool of my God I get really mad.   What on earth is wrong with this world?   No one will us any of the Buddha or Shiva or Allha.   Come on people, the only God that has any power is our Lord Jesus Christ and guess what the world will make fun of my God. I believe because there is so much power in the name of Jesus Christ that the people know this and will do most anything to get that power.   The problem is Christians don’t stand up for our Lord.   We must stop being so placid and accepting, walk overs and let the world know we do not agree with this sort of thing. My Lord Jesus Christ walked on the water and there weren’t any stones so don’t you dare come along and say the Lord walked on hidden stones.   You are the fool here not my Lord.

Monday and I am sitting in my study, I don’t know what my future holds for me.   I don’t know where my life is going.   I am here and it seems that just nothing is happening.   Reading my Bible and doing Bible study and praying for my family.   Then I look at my life and I wonder what is going to become of me.   Everything I try just doesn’t seem to work.   I have basically come into a place where I just cannot move up, down or sideways.   So how on earth do I get up and go on with my life?   How do I get out of this rut I find myself in.   At first it didn’t worry me, I was content and happy to just be.   Lately I don’t want to ‘just be’ I want to life my live. I have been reading about David and the way his life turned out just after the affair with the beautiful Bathsheba.   King David was standing on this balcony looking out over the city and there Bathsheba was taking a bath on top of her house roof.   A very normal thi...

Can you believe it, yes, it is the weekend once again.  I swear times seems to be flying off the hook these days, just the other day it was Monday and look today is Saturday.  I am constantly busy and it seems my days just fly by.  I wonder how the year is going to end for me.  We are preparing to attend our 30 year School reunion, this is going to be so exciting.  We will be seeing some of our class mates and what they have accomplished over the years. How I miss my husband over weekends, he works away from home and this results in me only seeing him in the week. Weekends his gone and we don't see him until Sunday evening, his normally tired and wants to relax in front of the TV.  How my life has changed.  I have some encouraging words from the Lord, Psalm 27: 14 Be of good courage, and He will strengthen your hear.  Thank you Lord for being there for me and strengthening me for the day ahead of me.  I cannot face this day without you....

Reading this scripture Psalm 139: 14 NIV ‘I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well.’ Yes I agree with the Lord, I am fearfully and wonderfully made, I can say thank You Lord for making me the way I am.   I have fine dark brown hair, green eyes and a lovely complexion.   Well-balanced individual with the knowledge and understanding that the Lord is my saviour and my God.   I am redeemed and I know that I will go to heaven someday.   I am aging and yes my body is changing and I am hopefully growing old gracefully.   I enjoy the friendship and love of my husband, who by the way adores me.   I also enjoy the friendship of all my children and I love them dearly.   I have the honour of being a Grandma to a beautiful little girl.   She is growing so fast and looking more and more just like her daddy.    My life is as the Lord has ordained and I am fortunate in being able to l...
