Happy Birthday Mommy - your days are still important

#1 – 2 – 3 Great Weekends As we approached the Town house I saw my mom walking towards the car she looked demure and pretty, and her graceful picture of black and white skinny pants and shirt let her stand out.   Her graceful appearance and the smile upon her face was absolutely glowing. As I got out of the car and hugged her, kissed her and wished her a happy birthday.   She looked so happy to see me and my husband.   We all walked back toward the gated and greeted my stepdad whom himself looked so dashing.    God surely looked down upon us and it was clear we were where we were supposed to be this weekend.   She served us something to drink while we sat in front of the fire waiting for my sister to arrive we chatted. Before long my sister arrived and we all enjoyed catching up and just having a wonderful time, the men braaied the meat and we all visited and enjoyed the beautiful day. The day turned out excellent, everybody...

Favor and Increase!

Jeremiah 29: 11 (NLT) 11   “For I know the plans I have for you,” says the LORD, “They are plans for good and not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” Are you waiting to come into the supernatural favor of our LORD?   We know that God will work together the right time and right people and circumstances for your and my success.    I too trust the LORD God to work in my favor, I want to build a legacy for my own children, in the mean time I am waiting on the LORD God. As I sit here I believe the LORD God will work out something spectacular for me going forward, God knows my heart’s desire and my dreams.   God is working in my favor and I believe that I will receive increase to such an extent that I will be able to help others. Take heart and be encouraged today, God is good and he has a good plan in place for both you and me.   Our future is favored by God. Prayer Abba Father we love You, not because You are ...

# rewiring my focus on the Lord Jesus Christ

Romans 13:10 New English Translation (NET Bible) 10  Love does no wrong to a neighbour. Therefore love is the fulfilment of the law. Thinking about the function of rewiring anything, you need to take out all the old wires and then start replacing each wire one at a time.   This is a process and there may be turns and bends in awkward places.   I think about my own life right now and I believe God is really busy working in my own life.   I have never really felt the need to rewire my life according to the Word of God.   I was always under the impression that I was just fine. This year I have come to a place in my life where I realized that I really and truly need ‘rewiring’ and this rewiring needs to come from the Lord my God. Out of my own strength I doubt that I would be even able to change my viewpoint on any matter.   During this year I have begun with Bible reading, focusing on the New Testament.   My heart’s desire is to ‘firs...

# Strike - did you hear?

Chatter inside the taxi as the people discuss the Strike Action.   As we near the Power Station the travel comes to almost a standstill.   Taxi’s and cars are both moving forward at a snail’s pace, and reaching the main road toward the station we see a tree stump placed across the road.   No one can drive through it forcing the taxi’s and cars to drive on the side of the road into the open veld. Our taxi drives makes his way up the road but cannot go much further and finally coming to a halt.   The doors are opened and we get out of the taxi, walking up towards the main gate, people have gathered on both sides of the road, to my left and to my right people have parked their cars and standing outside waiting to see what is going to happen. I look for some familiar faces and walk over towards them as I approach them we chat about the strike.   I ask one of the ladies ‘So what time will this be over, do you think we would be able to go in?’ ...

You raise me up!

Job 42:10 New English Translation (NET Bible) 10  So the Lord restored what Job had lost after he prayed for his friends, and the Lord doubled all that had belonged to Job .  Good morning, when I feel down and really out I love to listen to Josh Groban’s song ‘You raise me up’.   I cherish the thoughts that I believe the Lord God is still in control and that He will raise me up.   I think of Job in his hours of need and desperation.   Job was down and out, he had no were to go, then he prayed for his friends, his prayer resulted in the Lord blessing Job double for his trouble. I am trusting in the Lord to raise me up!   I pray for my friends and I believe God is in control and that at the right time God is going to raise me up. Prayer: Abba Father this morning I make a wall and stand in the gap for my family and friends today, Lord I bring them before You asking that You will bless each person supernaturally.   O L...
