Yvette's Whispers of Faith

‘… Breath came into them, and they lived, and stood upon their feet …’ Ezekiel 37: 10 Let’s believe and pray that the Lord our God will send his Holy Spirit to breath into our lives where there is dead deeds let us ask God to bring us to life and stand on our feet.   Thank You Lord.

You may be a South African citizen and perhaps you have had better experience than I, but as of late I must be honest in telling you service in our country is really bad.   I find the shop attendants believe they are doing you a favour to service you. Walking up to the till to pay for your purchase, you never get greeted.   You say good day, with a smile and the person behind the till ignores you.   ‘Do you want a plastic bag?’   Sour faced and really not happy to be there, she starts scanning the products over the scanner, having an in-depth conversation with the lady who packs the purchased products into your plastic bags. After she has scanned all products, you tell her, ‘Cheque account, please.’   She looks you in the eye and asks you “Savings?”   My dear husband always has a fit there and then; thank goodness he doesn’t say anything.    People in jobs take it for granted that they have employment and they think they are d...

Pearls for today:  Hebrews 9: 24 ‘For Christ did not enter a man-made sanctuary that was only a copy of the true one; he entered heaven itself, now to appear for us in God’s presence.’ Thank you Lord Jesus.

  John 12: 26 “Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, my servant also will be.   My Father will honour the one who serves me.” Come take this opportunity and serve the Lord, it will bring you into right standing with the Father.

Jeremiah 29: 11 ‘For I know the plans I have for you, declares the LORD, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’ The LORD has plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.   Grab it with both your hands; mediate on it day and night.      Thank you Lord Jesus.
