Do it! Today!

Being alone with one self can be unnerving at times.   Think about it, you have all this time and the one thing that happens when you spend time with yourself you actually start to think about things.   I was thinking of people who had passed away and I believe they are all in heaven.   The fact is thoughts of dying aren’t something that just comes up with me I am sure it will pop in to your mind every now and then.   I believe the older one gets the more you start to wonder about it. Here’s the thing, we all have a past and according to Paul in Romans 3: 23 he tells us “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”   Do you know what the price is for sin?   Paul says in Romans 6: 23 ‘For the wages of sin is death.”    Working for your wages each month to buy whatever you need.   Now we see that we have a price to pay for our own sin, death.   Is there a solution to this?   Yes absolutely, we have a key to thi...

Is your day filled with Lemons today?

Considering my life and the way I feel, I think today is filled with Lemons, but hey look at God’s word. Isaiah 55: 10 – 11 ‘For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven, and do not return there, but water the earth, and make it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower and bread to the eater, so shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth; it shall not return to Me void, but it shall accomplish what I please, and it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.’   From my point of view, I believe that God started a good job within me and here He states that His word won’t return void onto Him.   So I will reach my destiny and I will be a success. I am working really hard at changing my point of view on life in general, watching what I say, when I say it.   I am working hard on my attitude.   The difficult part is really dealing with people.   People are fickle and I must be honest they disappoint you so often.   So i...

Journey to Success

Nehemiah 2: 20 ‘ I answered them, and said, ‘The God of heaven will give us success .’’ I believe God will help me be successful.   Father God in the name of Jesus Christ I pray for success in my own life’s journey.   I believe Father God that You have made me successful and I accept it today in my own life.   I am expecting that You Father God in Jesus Christ’s name will cause me to be successful.   As I go through my life’s journey I know that You Father God are there all the way. Ecclesiastes 4: 9 – 10 ‘ Two are better than one … if either of them falls down, one can help the other up … ’ Andus is always there to support me and help me, we are a winning team.   Our success is our unity, we love each other and he is constantly at my side.   With Andus in my life we can face whatever comes our way, he is constantly the same always faithful and hopeful.   Our success is being there for each other; hold each other up and caring for each ot...

‘…; practice playing second fiddle.’ Romans 12: 10

  In today’s life ‘playing second fiddle’ is just unheard of and most people will pull their nose up.  Thinking about people in general we don’t like ‘playing second fiddle’ and it always has to be about us and what we need, what we want and where we are going.  No wonder most of us are in general angry and upset because we feel we have to take a back seat.   Then why would we want to follow Paul’s instruction in Romans of ‘practicing playing second fiddle’.   When going shopping I will return to the shop where the people are nice and friendly, where I feel comfortable and where people make me feel special.   I definitely won’t go to a shop where the people are rude and obnoxious.    Well for today let’s practice playing second fiddle and let’s be nice to the people around us.   Smile at the people you work with, ask them how are you.   Take five minutes in spending some time in their presence and finding out how they ...

'The Beauty of the LORD our God be upon me.'

Psalm 90:17 ‘ Let the beauty of the LORD our God be upon us, and establish the work of our hands for us; yes establish the work of our hands .’ Without our jobs we cannot provide for our children and take care of all our needs.   Most of the time we take our jobs for granted and we just plod along.   You know, my boss should feel privileged that I actually came into to work today.   The sad part is I actually know people with that kind of attitude.   They are never grateful for anything they receive and always feel that they have been done in somehow. Tomorrow is Monday and I want to pray and ask the LORD my God for the beauty of the LORD my God to rest upon me, and that He would establish the work of my hands, yes establish the work of my hands.   I cannot do this on my own, the environment that I work in isn’t what I am used to and the people are very possessive on their knowledge sharing.   I want to pray and ask the LORD my God to let me ...
