God's Timing ....



Napoleon Hill “Opportunity … often it comes in the form of misfortune, or temporary defeat.”

2 Timothy 4:18

'The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom.'

To top it off I find that the Lord works in mysterious ways, I open my daily thought which Alive to God, Pastor Andrew & Vanessa Roebert, sends me each morning.  I read ‘The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom.’  See how faithful the Lord is.  Answered me; before; I even asked Him.

Facing difficulty is not easy and I feel so sorry for people that cannot turn to the Lord our God because they don’t know Him.  There are people out there in situations that are not sure where there next meal is going to come from.  How they will pay the rent to their homes, buy food for their babies.  I know that it is daunting but I believe God is in control and will open the right doors for all of them.
My patience have worn thin and this morning I decided what does it help to constantly complain and moan and groan.  It won’t make things change, I don’t have the power to influence God to make things happen for me.  I have to trust in His good timing and believe that He has my best interest at heart.  I know I am impatient and I want things done now.  Humbling feels of helplessness can overwhelm me at times but I realise I still have an anchor in my Lord Jesus Christ.  

Take heart my friend; God’s timing is always just right.  I believe that God will lift you and me up at the right time.

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

Working in a multiracial office is always interesting, and my story today is one about sharing and looking out for each other.    Our cleaning lady doesn’t earn much and I doubt even if they are paying her ‘mini mum wages’.   Nevertheless the people in our office know this and worry about her.    One of the young ladies decided to give her a newspaper with all the latest add in it.   As she paged through the paper she sat next to her and asked her ‘what do you like’.    Looking at the stuff on the page she pick out a couple of things that seemed impossible to own and said to this young girl.   I like this and I would love to have one of these. Without her knowledge the Human Resource division made a collection and they then assigned the task to the young lady to buy the things Judy wanted. We gave her, her gifts today.   I was amazed at her gratefulness, tears of joy running down her face and all she could say was “T...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
