      God is a Person My God is a person, in Genesis 1: 26 ‘God said, Let Us [Father, Son, and Holy Spirit] make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the [tame] beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the earth.’   So if I am a person God has to be a person too, I believe that God can relate to me because of this verse.   I am made into the image and likeness of my God. In Psalm 7: 6 (Amp) ‘Arise, O Lord, in Your anger; lift up Yourself against the rage of my enemies; and awaken [and stir up] for me the justice and vindication [that] You have commanded.’   Now it is clear that my God also get angry and He can help us.   A characteristic of the God I love.   Other characteristics are being conscious of what is taking place and He also has joy.   My God is Immutable As I think of this word I want to assig...

Habakkuk 3 the prayer that Habakkuk prayed, I want to personalize for myself.   Dear Abba Father, “ O Lord, now I have heard your report, and I worship You in awe for the fearful things you are going to do.   In this time of my deep need, begin again to help me, as you did in years gone by.   Show me Your power to save me, in Your wrath, remember mercy. Lord God I see You moving across the deserts from Mount Sinai, Your brilliant splendor fills the earth and sky;   Your glory fills the heavens, and the earth is full of Your praise!   What a wonderful God YOU ARE!!!! Lord, Abba Father from Your hands flash rays of brilliant light.   You rejoice in Your awesome power.   Pestilence marches before you; plague follows close behind.   You stop; You stand still for a moment, gazing at the earth.   The You shake the nations, scattering the everlasting mounts and leveling the hills.   Your power is just the same as always!!! ...

Thank you and Bless you too!!   Colossians 1:9 (Good News Translation) 'We ask God to fill you with the knowledge of His will, with all the wisdom and understanding that His Spirit gives.' I know it’s bold but I do want to tell you what an awesome Birthday I enjoyed 9 November 2014.   God is great and greatly to be praised.   I received so many beautiful birthday wishes from my friends all over the world and most importantly also from my Brother and Sister-in-law in Australia.   We don’t talk and it sad because we all miss them tremendously.  Thank you for remembering me!!! The Lord my God has sent me beautiful gifts, my sister bless her heart always buys me the most beautiful gifts.   This year she spoils me with a beautiful watch with white leather straps.   Thank you ‘Kleinsis’.   My children Johan, Odette, Anabelle and Jean bought me a beautiful black genuine leather jack (I have been wishing for one for such a long, long time...

2 Peter 1:6  New International Version (NIV) 6  and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; I am currently a temp at a company and they are facing changes, the winds of change are rising up some standards for some and not for others. Listening to them talk about their situation I feel sympathetic towards them but I can also see God’s hand at work in each one’s lives.   The person I really think has persevered is a lady that really went the extra mile and after a number of years she now faces the chance of being promoted. It is clear to me that she persevered and God saw her heart and realized her dream of being promoted.   How awesome is our God, He promotes each of us as He sees fit.   It sad the others are angry and feeling resentment but they didn’t worry about her while they were moving up in life.   Now it’s through her perseverance that she finally is being rewarded...

Take a chance on life, love and your future! It feels like I have missed out so much in my life and that I only recently woke up.  I was always so afraid of taking chances.  Risk seemed to be something I would not consider and it kept me locked up inside. I met my school boyfriend after an interval in my life of 30 years plus.  I started changing and I started venturing out and taking chances.  My now husband is someone that seems to invite intrigue and wonder in my life. The wonder of all things in the world and how it’s made and whether I am able to conquer it seems to drive me right now.  The challenge of writing and getting noticed is always so awesome and wonderful to see the number of ‘hits on my personal blog’.  The driving sense of being able to write a couple of spiritual words and my own thoughts and publishing it bring me a satisfaction I cannot explain. Since I seem to feel so versatile I want to expand as much as p...
