Hello 2019


This year is all about embracing what God makes special in you. Everything that makes you so unique. It's this year we are going to become focused.

Psalm 5: 3 (ESV)

O LORD, in the morning you hear my voice; in the morning I prepare a sacrifice for you and watch.

It's time to say "Lord, here I am and Lord, I am ready!" I want to focus all my time and energy on God. I want to be purpose driven. I am planning on only expecting good things to come my way. I am declaring "I am expecting good things in my life, good thoughts and good behaviour." I am looking forward to supernatural favour in my life with God and with people. I am going to do good things because is doing good things in my own life.

I am the righteousness of God in Christ. Today I am going to do my best job now. Not as for people but as for God. I am going to use every opportunity in my life as an opportunity for growth. I may slip up at times but I am going to win in the end. I have God on my side, who can stand against me. I am not going to waste my time on feeling guilty or worrying about my life, being jealousy or feeling envious of other and I am going to stop resenting, feeling bitter and not forgiving people. No more “I’m not good enough, I am excellent and I am a Child of God.” Today I want to bind all negative thoughts that pour through my mind regularly especially feeling sorry for myself.

I am going to focus my thoughts on God’s word. I am going to do my best job now. I am capable of doing an excellent job.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, You are worthy of praise, Lord You are the Almighty God, I want to worship and praise Your Holy Name. Lord I am so grateful for a new day, new beginnings and new challenges. Lord, I dedicate my life and the lives of my friends and family into Your hands. You have opened doors for each one of us. Help us Lord to stay focused on You and Your Word. Lord help us to turn to You each morning and night. In the Holy name of Jesus Christ. 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...
