I will serve Jesus Christ, as long as I live.

November 2
As long as I live, I will serve. God Psalm 91:16 (NKJV) 16 “With long life, I will satisfy him and show him My salvation.” It's something we all are facing, aging isn't negotiable. I am in my late fifties and approaching sixty. It's clear I cannot do everything I did when I was in my thirtys. Facing my sixties is something I have to do. I don't look the same and my body is changing. These days I am living my life to the fullest. Focusing my time and attention on the Lord Jesus. My mom phoned me last Monday in tears, her brother passed away. He was 79 years of age. She feels sad and realised that she's the last of her family. We spoke about her brother and then I reminded her that on one is leaving earth alive. The only person I recall leaving earther alive was Enoch who lived for 365 years. Enoch and walked off with God into heaven. We need a personal relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ. Study your Bible make time to come into the presence of God and draw near to Him. By staying connected to God we are able to hold onto the word that God is our salvation. Serving the Lord Jesus is our main aim. Today make the effort to praise the Lord Jesus and get into His presence. Reading Psalm 89 verses 15 in the message, the Psalmist reminds to praise God. Praise is our password to opening heavens door. When we praise we are opening the doors for God to enter our lives. Prayer Good morning Father God, I want to enter into Your presence today. The Psalmist reminds me to praise You. Today, I am grateful and happy that You have opened the door so that we may enter into Your presence. In praising and worshiping You we declare we will serve You, as long as we live. Lord in our praises we want to draw closer to You. You remind me today "blessed are the people who know the passwords of praise." Today we want to claim You, walk in Your presence and bring You glory and honor. Lord, I need Your direct intervention in my life today. Thank You, for this time we can spend together. Thank You, Lord for a new day. In the Holy name of Jesus Christ. I will praise You and Honor You. 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...
