Proverbs 3:5 (NIV)
5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart
    and lean not on your own understanding;

I know for about 9 weeks I was so confused and worried that the Lord didn’t care about me. I felt so worried and my heart was breaking. It seemed like God wasn’t in my life and I was fighting the battle all by myself.

Just because I couldn’t see God’s hand in my life, doesn’t mean that God wasn’t working on my behalf. The thing is I felt so abandoned and all alone, I just could see the next day. I was reading Gods Word but I just didn’t see the Words. I felt like I was in a box and I couldn’t open the lid.

As I reflect over the past couple of weeks I realise that God is still in control, no matter what other people have to say or think of me. I know that there are a couple of people who are standing in judgement over my life, I know this by their actions. I have prayed about this asking God to forgive them they don’t know any better.

I am trusting in God, I know God knows my heart and the position I find myself in. I also trust God will lift me up and I also believe that the people who stand in judgement over me will relax and get out of my way. God is able to change my circumstance.

Prayer

Humbly, Lord, I want to pray to forgive these people who are standing in judgment over my life. I want to pray that You will help them and guide them. Lord, I bring my life before Your throne asking You to please guide me and help me in the coming week. I love and adore You. In the name of Jesus Christ. 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 ...
