I won’t lose my vision!


Romans 8: 28 “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”

This has been a truly difficult week for me and my colleagues. I am a contract worker and I was constantly plagued by the thought of losing my job before my contract came to term. I decided to take my eyes off the problem and bring my contract before the Lord my God. I remember something I read in the Bible where King Hezekiah received a letter from his enemies and prayed over this letter. From my point of view, God has only got good things in store for my life and I wanted to pray asking Him to stand in the gap for me. I need my job right now because so many people depend on me.
It struck me God was dealing with my colleagues as well as with me, I prayed and prayed and God said that He has blessed my hands for work. I believe that and I believe that my contract is in place. Then I heard things have changed for my colleagues too. I do believe God’s plan for my life will be accomplished no matter what the devil throws at me.

I almost lost my vision and I humbly ask for forgiveness from God, I cannot allow these things in life to throw me around. I know that the Lord is in control and that He has a plan for my life, and I will embrace it. No matter what others might say? God is always in control and will help me and others.

Prayer
O Lord God, in the Holy Name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth, thank You for opening this door for me and my colleagues. We are grateful that You have a good plan for our lives and we embrace You today for this opportunity. Bless the work of my hands as well as theirs. Thank You for being there for me in my hour of need and for them too. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth. 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...

~ Reach Out if You Wish to Succeed ~ Galatians 5:13 – “By love, serve one another.”

Gentle reader, Permit me to offer this quiet truth: success does not arrive on satin cushions, announced by trumpets or tapping politely at your parlour door. No — it is more elusive, more noble in its pursuit. It often hides itself behind connections yet to be made, and relationships yet to be pursued. To flourish in this life, one must be bound — not by title or fortune — but by divine connection. For those who are destined to elevate you may not arrive unbidden. More often, it is you who must summon the courage to seek them out. Let us consider the evidence: Why is the newspaper sold on every corner, and the soda machine placed on every floor? Because success is positioned where the people are. Even our beloved Lord, Jesus — did He sit upon a high throne in a palace, declaring, “Only here may you find Me?” Certainly not. He moved among the people — to the market stalls, along the dusty shores where fishermen cast their nets, into the synagogues and modest homes. “He went through...
