[Echoing into eternity] Consequences




Proverbs 22: 6 ESV

6 Train up a child in the way he should go; even when he is old he will not depart from it.

Children are a blessing and we as parents are instructed to train and teach our children.  Then comes the teenage years, they are difficult but they get through it.  Once they are grown up you believe and trust that you have done the best you could for them.

I have insisted and taken my children all to church and I want them to love the Lord the way I do, each child makes their own choices.  The one thing I have come to realize is that all our action on earth will be made know in heaven.  Our sins have been washed away but God is still going to reward or award us for the good we have done as Christians.  And this is what I most liked about the Gladiator when Russell Crowe, as Maximus said: What we do in this life echoes in eternity.

Here’s the thing, you will see what the results of your actions on earth were in eternity.  Praying for people and interceding on their behalf, we don’t know what we are preventing or helping them receive.  

Prayer

Heavenly Father humbly I pray that whatever I do in this life that it may be positively echoing into eternity.  In Jesus name, Amen

2nd Wedding Anniversary!

Hey, hey it is my 2 nd anniversary!   This has been an interesting time in my life and I must be honest I am starting to see the changes in my own life.    Firstly remember I am a city girl with this bad ass attitude, my way or the highway.   Ah, now let me tell you that doesn’t work like this.   My husband has a firm hand over me and keeps me in toe.   I am still my own person and have many new interests.    How was my day today?   Well the normal, got out of bed at 04h30 and then left the house by 06h00 arriving at work at 07h00.   Then to top it off in an early morning meeting at 07h30 to 08h30, then back in the office.   I worked on three projects; getting information from people isn’t that easy.   I firstly completed my own scope of work, followed up with the suppliers and then going back to the next person.   As I work according to my time keeping schedule I then finally got to lunch time.   I...

Wisdom in Trusting God

Proverbs 3: 5-6 NIV “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” My journey has been really interesting and there are days when I find it really difficult to trust in God.  On those days I go and make all kinds of plans and I think and worry about the matter at hand and at the end of that day I am tired, frustrated and I feel sick to my stomach.  Are you able to relate?   It sounds so easy when you read these words “Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;”  Many times I take my problems to the LORD and I leave them with the LORD and after some serious thinking and worrying I go back to the LORD and take the problems back. This has been something I did for a number of years and lately, I have realized it has to change, I have to trust in the LORD.  After all, God is the creator and knows the plans for...
