"Joined together as one person."

November 11
"Joined together as one person." 1 Corinthians 6:17 (TLB) 17 "But if you give yourself to the Lord, you and Christ are joined together as one person." When you read this passage, have you noticed what it is stating? As I read it, this is what I understand if I give myself to the Lord, then Christ and I, together as one person. So, if we joined together as one person, that means that the Lord Jesus is one with me. Can you see the impact this can have on your life? What a remarkable understanding, we joined together with the Lord Jesus Christ. Both you and I are one with Christ. Let these words sink in and meditate on them today as you praise the Lord Jesus. God is so awesome that He gave Jesus to save both you and me from our sins. Now I know, and you know that we have been born again, we have surrendered our lives to the Lord Jesus. We are friends, we are in right standing with God. The Lord Jesus and to make it even better we joined together with Jesus Christ as one. Prayer Abba Father, Lord, we don't always think about where we stand with you in our lives. We do want to thank You, for the Lord Jesus, who is one with us today. Praise and worship Your Holy Name and give You all the glory, in the name of Jesus, 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...
