I've been called by God




Hebrews 10: 35 “do not cast away your confidence, which has great reward.”

I have noticed that many times I feel so uncomfortable and that I just don’t fit in.  I was thinking about that but then I read that when God called Jeremiah He said “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, sanctified you and I ordained you a prophet to the nations.”  Now I am not saying I am a Jeremiah but I believe that God also knew me when I was in my mother’s womb and I also believe that I have been sanctified.  

I say God called me and that God “scheduled each day of my life before I began to breathe.” Psalms 139: 16

So whatever I am doing right now must be in God’s will for my life.  I am not perfect and believe that God is still working on me.

Because I feel set apart [sanctified] from other people I believe God made it that way so that I will look for Him.  I will search for Him because it is with Him that I feel comfortable. Sometimes people around me make me feel very uncomfortable and I think those are the people I seem to avoid.

I believe that I am ordained by God to be a specific person I am. I am unique and I my uniqueness is what draws many people towards me.  

Prayer
Lord help me to cling to You each and every day, yes, I don’t always fit in and my life seems difficult because of that.  I do want to pray for supernatural favor with You Lord as well as with people, I cannot do this on my own and I need Your guidance.  In the Name of Jesus Christ I pray. Amen

#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 ...
