Sweet Words

Psalm 119:103 Amplified Bible (AMP) 103  How sweet are Your words to my taste, sweeter than honey to my mouth! I wonder why people cannot speak sweet and beautiful words.  Men who date their girlfriends use the most charming and a beautiful word, to make sure the lady is crazy over them.  I believe that we should practice speaking beautifully to each other.  Why do we find it so easy to say foul words and swear without blushing?  I think it is because it is against our nature to speak sweet words that is uplifting and encouraging.  We unintentionally don’t want to see the sun shine on others.  We are selfish and self-centred that is why we don’t speak words of encouragement, speaking compliments and being kind. My challenge today to you is, why don’t you start speaking sweet words, something that melts in your mouth.  See how life will change and people will become calmer and sweeter. My words going forward is to speak swee...

A thought for today ... God is Good ... All the time

I am so excited, today I received a letter on email telling me I won, I wrote a note to one of the magazines - Vrouekeur - and they responded telling me I won. Awesome, I have never won anything in such a long, long time I wanted to share this with you.  God is great, He is good, all the time. Don't give up, trust in the Lord.

Abundance - will come my way

John 10: 10 Amplified 10  The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have   and  enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it [ b ] overflows). Many people I know are blessed with an abundant life, the best is they don’t always know it.   I watch people around me and I feel happy for them.   I am not being jealous or crying about the lack I have right now.   God is working on my behalf and not too far in the future I will also have the abundance everybody else is enjoying. So this is my confession, Lord I declare and believe that I am enjoying my life and that I have an abundance, (to the full, till it overflows) enough to give to the poor and needy.  In the Holy name of Jesus Christ.  Amen

Teach me Your paths Lord

According to Psalm 25 I want to ask as David asked.   Humbly Lord I come to You, O LORD, I lift u my soul, O my God, in You I trust; let me not be put to shame; let not my enemies exult over me.   Indeed, none who wait for You shall be put to shame; they shall be ashamed who are wantonly treacherous.  O LORD, make me to know YOUR ways, O LORD; teach me YOUR paths.   Lead me in YOUR truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; for YOU I wait all day long.  Please LORD, remember Your mercy, O LORD and Your steadfast love, for they have been from of old.   Remember not the sins of my youth or my transgressions; according to Your steadfast love remember me, for the sake of Your goodness, O LORD! Good and upright is the LORD; therefore He instructs sinners in the way.   He leads the humble in what is right and teaches the humble his way.   All the paths of the LORD are steadfast love and faithfulness, for those who keep h...

To be alone with God

Mark 4: 34 “He did not speak to them without a parable, but privately to his own disciples he explained everything.”   It is important to grow spiritually and spending time in God’s word has always been part of my daily devotion.   The funny thing is some many things have crept into my own life that I get so busy with this, that and the other.   Because I am constantly busy I must collect my own thoughts, I need to sit down and evaluate my life what is happening all around me, and I don’t always know where I am going so I do need direction.   Then I have to get back to basics. When I first moved to Witbank in Mpumalanga the most difficult part of my life was being left all alone.   Sitting in a house with just the quiet surrounding me, it was difficult to come to grips with who I am.    I then realized I needed to pray and ask the Lord my God to please show me the Lords way, to teach me His paths and to guide me in His truths. ...

My prayer Psalm 91 Amplified Bible

Father God please help me dwell in the secret place of the Most High so that I may remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]. As the Psalmist states Lord, I will say of the LORD, He is my Refuge and my Fortress, my God; on Him I lean and rely, and in Him I [confidently] trust! For [then] He will delivery me from the snare of the fowler and from the deadly pestilence. [Then] He will cover me with His pinions, and under His wings shall I trust and find refuge; His truth and His faithfulness are a shield and a buckler. I shall not be afraid of the terror of the night, nor of the arrow (the evil plots and slanders of the wicked) that flies by day, nor of the pestilence that stalks in darkness, nor of the destruction and sudden death that surprise and lay waste at noonday. A thousand may fall at my side, and ten thousand at my right hand, but it shall not come near me. Only a spectator shall I be [myself inaccessible in the ...

South Africa - we need to check our values !!!

Good Citizens A good citizen is someone that to my mind is trustworthy, has respect for his own property as well as for the next person’s property.  This person is responsible and knows that whatever he or she does will affect many people around him or her, directly or indirectly.  This person is able to deal fairly with people, under any circumstances and cares about what happens to others.  Being a good Citizen is import to our Country.  We need to teach our children good values that will help them growing up.  We need to take the time in working with them.  In showing  them the right way of living.  Looking at some aspects and values I think we need to address give me some of your thoughts and tell me if you believe I am wrong.  What can we do to make our Country better? Respect I have been talking to a number of people and it seems that in our Country today there is a lack of some good qualities throughout the nation....

Empty Tomb ... He is a Live!

Mary the mother of James, and Mary Magdalene and Salome bought spices and sat together preparing the spices.  It was very early when Mary Magdalene went into the kitchen and put everything together while she was putting the spices on the table, the other Mary and Salome can into the kitchen too.  ‘How did you sleep?’ Salome asked as she sat down on a chair near the table.   Looking at her both Mary’s said ‘Not at all’.  Picking up the dish with the spices the three women walked through the door and down the street toward the place where Jesus was buried. On their way to the grave they experienced a violent earthquake.  An Angel of the Lord came down from heaven and going to the tomb rolled back the stone and sat on it.  His appearance was like lightning and his clothes were white as snow.  The guards were so afraid of him they shook and became like dead men. The three women, Mary the mother of James, Mary Magdalene and Salome saw th...
