Facing my own giants ... Lord God help me

We all need to face our giants at some stage in our lives. I have come to realise that no matter what I say or do I cannot make them go away if I don’t actually face them. One thing is for sure, to face giants in my life is really difficult and I find myself desperate and really depressed many a time. The cold weather also doesn’t help and then the only comfort I have is actually spending time in God’s presence. It has been difficult and I haven’t that faithful for such a long time. Thank God for His faithfulness and thank God for waiting on us turn back to Him.

I have come to a place in my life where I know that I can trust in my God, yes, although I face these giants, God is with me. Taking the giant and looking him in the eye makes me realise God is with me. I have seen Him move in my area.

Psalm 34:5 Those who look to Him for help will be radiant with joy, no shadow of shame will darken their faces. As Pastor Andrew and Vanessa Roebert sent this message out today, it just again proved to me God is there listening to my requests and I am safe in His hands.

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary! This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life. Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway. Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this. My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe. I am still my own person and have many new interests. How was my day today? Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00. Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office. I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy. I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person. As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time. I...

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God. On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach. Are you able to relate? It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;” Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD. After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
