Who am I to be today?

Good morning, the question that is laying heavily on my heart today is “Who am I to be today?” When I was going to bed last night I was contemplating revenge. I am so angry about a situation in my life right now. I thought okay, let’s me see “don’t get mad, get even.” This morning I woke up, sat down and started my prayers. I started off praying for my granddaughters asking God to give them courage and let them seek mercy. I was also thinking let the Lord teach them grace and peace in their lives. How can I be so angry and keep revenge in my heart? Of course, I will let it go. Thinking about my thoughts, of taking revenge I realised this is going to turn me into an old hag. So that brings me to ‘who am I to be today?’ Right now I know that I am supposed to be a gracious forgiving person. I know that I am to let go, and let God. So I have decided to trust in God. Lord, my prayer is simple and I want to pray that You O God, will vindicate me. Please will you plead my cause against the person? I am asking You Lord to rescue me. I declare Lord God You are my stronghold. Please do not reject me. Please let me be free from this oppression I am facing today. Lord send forth your light and your truth. Lord guide me and let me bring joy to You. Bring me into your Holy Mountain to the place where You dwell. I will go to the altar of God, to God, my joy and my delight. I will praise you, O God, my God. Because my soul is downcast and disturbed within me, I will put my hope in You Lord, God. I will praise You and love you as You are my Savior and my God. Who am I to be today? I am Forgiving and merciful, trusting in God who is Sovereign. Who will you be today?

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...
