Sing praises to Him




1 Chronicles 16: 9 “Sing to Him, sing praises to Him; Speak of all His wonders.”

No one knows how much I wanted a “Tallis Prayer Shawl” and today God gave me one.  My friend Cornelia came to my office and said as she was praying God said that I should have this Shawl.

I was so taken and tears just poured from my eyes with such gratitude and gratefulness. My life is stormy at the best of times and currently, I am going through some stuff and I felt like God has forgotten me.

In all humility and with a grateful heart I can only say thank You Lord for answered prayers. This “Tallis Prayer Shawl” was very special to Cornelia as it was her mom’s and she brought it all the way from Israel.  A place I will still visit.

My thanks to a God who knows when we need an encouraging moment? Today is so significant to me I will always keep this as a special day. Thank You, Lord for sending me this beautiful shawl it is something that I will always treasure and keep close to my heart. The fact that only my husband knew that I wanted this shawl makes this even more significant to me.

God knows the desires of my heart and granted me this today. 

Prayer

Lord God all I can do is come in adoration to Your throne and say Thank You so much for this beautiful “Tallis Prayer Shawl” all the way from Israel. O Lord You know who I have desired to own my very own Shawl. I am so very grateful that You answer prayers even those which are secret. Lord all the honor and glory to You and thank You also for placing this on my best friends heart. I am so very grateful. Praise Your Holy Name, I will worship and praise You for the great God You are. 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 ...
