Yvette's Whispers of Faith

Matthew 18:21-22 Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, "Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother when he sins against me? Up to seven times?" Jesus answered, "I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times.   We often misunderstand or can be insulted by any number of people we mix with.   The one thing we don’t keep in mind is being ‘thick skinned’.   Why should we become ‘thick skinned’?   This makes us less of a target and more of a friendly and approachable person.   People who tend to be offended often are normally sensitive and are constantly hurt by what was or was not said.   They also tend to struggle with forgiveness as whole.   Learning to be a forgiving person is difficult and we need to do this through faith.   Firstly, if we are to practise forgiveness we will be obeying the word of God.   By doing this we also free our emotions and set our focus wholly on the Lord.   Once we practise forgiven...

I try to care deeply, laugh loudly and accept my imperfects.  I know I am a spit-fire as I do love fiercely.  My desires are openly and stand up boldly, still struggling with trivial things, need to learn how to let go and let GOD!!!!

Its taking the first step towards God that makes a difference.  I love the Lord God with all my heart and all that I am.  Why don't you also take that one step?

People who genuinely now; me, will know that I am passionate about the Lord Jesus Christ.   I can sit and talk to you for hours and then you may say something opening a door for me to tell you about the Lord Jesus Christ.   My husband once said to me, “All you really talk about is God, the Bible and people in the Bible.”   Yes, that’s so true, I am speaking to you as a Christian and it is my dream of course to be able to write more about Jesus Christ and teach people about this one true God. John 3:16 “ For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. Thank the Lord for this verse, I am so glad to see that God loved the world that he gave us his only begotten Son, Jesus Christ.   This means I am able to stand before the God of our universe knowing that Jesus Christ is my advocate and that He love me.   I have failed Him so many time but He has never turned His back on m...

Me and my grandchild Anabelle on my 50th I don’t know if it is true for any of you beautiful young woman, but aging has become such an issue for me.   The first sign of aging is pre-menopause, night sweats and hot flushes.   Then all the other issue that come along with menopause.   Then of course grey hairs are popping up all over my dark head. Proverbs 20:29 “The glory of young men is their strength, grey hair the splendour of the old.” (NIV) So guess what?   I am going to embrace my grey hair and enjoy the splendour of my old age. Then of course I don’t know about most of you young and beautiful woman but I dream a lot and most of the dreams are significant to me.   I receive messages and it takes me a couple of days to get to the bottom of it but I finally I get the answer.   I believe God is dealing with me in this way; isn’t it awesome. Joel 2:28 “And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughter...

This is something that makes me think about my past, my present and my future.   I just cannot undo the past, what is done; is done!   The present is something I current have in hand, I work with what I have and I pray the Lord to lead me each and every step of the way.   Thinking back on the past I realise that I have made some seriously bad decisions and I just have no idea how I can ever rectify them.   I also realise that it doesn’t help me to sit and worry about what happened and see how I should have acted.   The fact remains, it’s in the past. Currently I am working on my attitude and to be honest I am really negative as a person, I don’t see the positive of a situation unless it is pointed out or very obvious to me.   That is difficult as I tend to be really very hard on myself.   I am my worst enemy, when I feel that I have made a mistake or spoken ill of someone, I really break myself down to almost nothing.   Hard to belie...
