Yvette's Whispers of Faith

A man received the following text from his neighbor: "I am so sorry Bob. I've been riddled with guilt and I have to confess.  I have been helping myself to your wife, day and night when you're not around. In fact, I have probably been getting more than you. I do not get it at home - but that's no excuse. I can no longer live with the guilt and I hope you will accept my sincerest apology with my promise that it won't ever happen again." On reading the text, the man, anguished and betrayed, went directly into his bedroom, grabbed his gun and, without a word, shot his wife dead. A few moments later, a second text came in, "Bloody spell check!! Sorry Bob, the second sentence should refer to your wifi."

Merry Christmas With heartfelt gratefulness I want to thank you for reading my story, I do appreciate all the views. You are a blessing in my life, may the LORD God richly bless you with peace and happiness this Christmas. Enjoy a precious Day in the Lord Jesus thank you  Blessings Yvette

My attitude in general is very negative and I have been working hard at the change in my own life, by the way it doesn’t work that way. I soon came to realize that nothing I say and do can change who I am.   The only ‘One’ able to change me is ‘The Almighty God – Lord Jesus Christ’. Now after hard work and struggling I decide to hand my situation over to the Lord.   In the meantime I have been learning. 1.       Taking my thoughts captive 2 Corinthians 10: 5 ‘ We demolish arguments and every pretension that sets itself up against the knowledge of God, and we take captive every thought to make it obedient to Christ.” Now I am instructing my thought life to the Lord Jesus.   When I feel that I cannot cope with my own thoughts I pray and give them to the LORD. I have decided that I will believe every word of God through the Bible.   Jesus Christ is my salvation and I will submit every thought I have to Him.   ...

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...

“For the LORD your God is bringing you into a good land — a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills.” (Deuteronomy 8:7, NIV) I have been hearing from the Holy Spirit through the Bible in quiet time as well as through family and friends and also through my daily devotions.  "The LORD my God is bringing me  into a good land - a land with brooks, streams, and deep springs gushing out into the valleys and hills. I am going to Live my life today ... dream my dreams tomorrow and cherish my yesterday, keeping the good and letting go of the bad. I am so grateful that the Lord My God has blessed me with the ability to draw and enjoy a full life.  Thank you Father God. Blessing to you, because all my friends are a Blessing!!!!

Proverbs 14: 23 The Voice    23 Prosperity comes from hard work, but talking too much leads to great scarcity. Thinking about these word I must tell you it is so true, I have seen when I get to work and get down to business and do what is on my desk immediately I have a lot of free time the rest of the day.   By looking at the piles of paper siting on my desk talking about when I get down to doing the work and just paging through them makes no difference.   Later on they are still there and then here by the end of the week I have twice as much to process than before. So procrastination is truly the same as talking too much about what I should be doing than putting my hands out and actually doing the job.   Another thing that I must tell you I have observed is by being diligent in working hard while the work is pouring in, this not only makes me become better at what I do, I then start to excel. For me I would like to be the best in wh...

1 Peter 1: 8 the Voice Although you haven’t seen Jesus, you still love Him.   Although you don’t yet see Him, you do believe in Him and celebrate with a joy that is glorious and beyond words. I do believe in the Lord Jesus and I really believe that I love the LORD Jesus.   It is my desire to be renewed each day by the Word of God.   I so want to be a true child of God.   I must be honest and tell you at times it seems so difficult to be joyful and act in the appropriate manner.   Circumstances can drive you and me to act out of character.    Still I love the Lord Jesus and still I want to see Him one day. To me to celebrate with a joy that is glorious and beyond words, I really am not sure that I will really get my mind around that.   I do the best I can as I feel that my life isn’t 100% right but I do believe that I am a child of God. My love for the LORD Jesus is real and never stop thinking about Him, each day His ...

We watch our parents love Where do we learn to love? Oscar Wild wrote ‘Keep love in your heart.  A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.’  Love is patient, love is kind, love endures all things and love is unconditional. December is a month of celebration, thankfulness and mostly of showing how much we love and care for each other.  We all learned this by watching our parents.  Where did they learn it?  Of course from their parents and then the question I pose is how did it all come about?  To my mind I believe it to be through the birth of someone so important and still with each of us.  The Lord Jesus Christ, the fact of Christmas is to celebrate the birth of our Savior. Just by reading and following the word we learn that the Lord was kind, He loved unconditionally and had deep compassion for people.  We need to take a page from His book.  Watching my grandchildren...
