My life in a nutshell!

This is the day the Lord has made;
I will rejoice and be glad in it.
Psalm 118: 24


Veering off my normal daily devotional today, I thought I would give you a glimpse into my world.

We live in Mpumalanga and my goodness we get out of bed bright and early, at 06h00 am and then the day starts.  I never jump back into bed, I make the bed and then get started.  Its coffee and breakfast and then the kids are off to school and the husband is off to work. 

So now you think I have the privilege of sitting around doing nothing.  I wish! 

Long story short, I have a really mundane life and it entails washing and ironing and cleaning.  In between cooking as well and then I want to still do my blogs.

Today I was researching music for my program and checking the formatting and getting my material read for Thursday’s hour.  Tell you what, it was a hair-raising moment every now and then. 

I am so grateful that the Lord God has been faithful and been watching over me, I bring all I do to the Lord in prayer and I trust that He will straighten my path.  I can only bring Him glory and honor.  I am also so excited at the prospects of having my Daily Devotional Ebenezer published very soon.  As soon as it hits the bookstore I will let you know.


Well that is it for now, I have to get back to some more research I have to create a website and I am also really looking forward to the launch of this website.  Whoa God is Great!

#never #destroyed

https://goo.gl/xK6bTg 2 Corinthians 4: 8-9AMP “We are pressured in every way [hedged in], but not crushed; perplexed [unsure of finding a way out], but not driven to despair; hunted down and persecuted, but not deserted [to stand alone]; struck down, but never destroyed;” I realized that my emotions are something that can cause me to feel pressure and hedged in. My circumstances seem impossible and I feel that there is no way I am going to make it. Then it’s time to check what is going on in your personal life.  Are you getting enough sleep? Are you eating properly? Do you take a break from time to time? If I don’t get enough sleep it seems despair is knocking at my door, and I feel miserable. I just cannot move forward, I want to curl up and died. Just because I am tired and there seems to be no way out. Emotions have a way of controlling each one of us. I realized that I will never be destroyed because there is a way forward.  God gave me common sense an...

You are a Blessing to me!

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...

Help Me Stay True in Giving God His Tithe

Can I be real with you for a minute? Tithing is something I wrestle with. I try my best to be faithful, giving to the best of my ability. But let's be honest, sometimes I look around and see others who seem to be blessed in ways I'm not. They have this financial ease, this "caliber" of blessing, that can feel a world away from my own reality. And in those moments of doubt, a quiet, gentle voice reminds me: I am blessed. God does provide. He has come through for me more times than I can count, often in ways I didn't even see until later. He's always there, picking me up when I've lost it and guiding me when I'm blind to the path. My heart is so grateful for that. But my thinking still needs work. My human nature kicks in and whispers, "I earned this. I worked for this salary." It’s a constant battle to get my heart aligned with the truth. And the truth is found in verses like this: “A tithe of everything from the land, whether grain from the ...
