A Chosen People


Colossians 3: 12
“Therefore, as God’s chosen people,
holy and dearly loved,
clothe yourselves with
compassion, kindness, 
humility, gentleness and patience.”

This year I am going to clothe myself with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. I am going to take charge of my thoughts, I will not allow my past to plague me as it did last year. I will not listen to negative people. I will look for the good in other people at all time. I will trust people to do the best they can at all time and give them the benefit of the doubt.

As a chosen people, I believe God has placed me on this earth for a reason, I need to find out what the reason is so that I don’t disappoint the Lord my God.

I will do my best job every day, I will read as much as I can and I will mentor people when I see an opportunity.

Do you feel that you have more to offer? Of course, we all have more to offer, let’s start with little things, picking up and going forward by the end of this year we will have accomplished so much. Perhaps you and I will conquer a fear that has been plaguing us and I believe it starts with the very first thought in the morning. “Good morning LORD.” I conquered all fear because I started my day right.

Prayer

LORD, thank You, for being there for me. Thank You, for always reminding me that I am Yours and that I belong to You. I am a chosen people, You have called me by name, I belong to You. I clothe myself today with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience. I believe You are in control of my life, help me stay focused and I declare that the blood of Jesus Christ is a shield around me, I have supernatural favour with You as well as with people, in the Holy Name of Jesus I pray, 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...
