I am preparing for my future.


Jeremiah 31:17(AMP)

“There is [confident] hope for your future,” says the Lord;
“Your children will come back to their own country.”

Something I want to share with you today, God is in my future. I remember last year when I started my contract with this company. I the taxi took me home every afternoon I would gaze out of the window and look at the fields and think this time next year I am still travelling on this taxi.  Believe you me, I am still travelling in the same taxi.

I received a call from my manager stating my contract ended and that she was checking to see how she could have it renewed. A miracle they renewed my contract, I never doubted that God was in control. I believe God knew I am preparing for my future. He knew I what I want and what I am doing. I just want to tell you, think ahead and prepare and be expectant.

I was sure that I would be here this here and at the beginning of the year, I signed a contract which state I would be here until the next year 2019. I stood on this contract and I believed that it was true, I expect the best from God.

I feel that I am one of the chosen few. I was preparing to come to work this year and I believed it in my heart, I also believe that in the next year I will be travelling on the same taxi to work next year. God is moving things around because I am expecting something great out of His hands.

Prayer

Lord, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, I will praise Your Holy Name. You, Lord, are Almighty, You Lord and All-knowing. You, Lord, are my beginning and my end, You Lord are all around me. You Lord I will praise, Hallelujah, Hallelujah, Hallelujah. I cannot do anything without You. Nothing is possible in my strength but in Your strength, I can stand and trust. I am certain You are able to do what Your word says. For myself and for my family and children and friends. I expect only good things will follow me all the days of my life, because You, Lord have called me by my name. I love You, Lord 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 ...
