‘The thing you hate the most, will come to you.’

Job 3: 25 Young’s Literal Translation 25 For a fear I feared and it meeteth me, And what I was afraid of doth come to me. I watch people and I love to think that it is well with all people, I look at the way they walk and talk and it makes me believe that they actually don’t have a care in the world.   How totally wrong!   Of course each of us are facing some difficulty, there could be someone sick at home, or financial crisis.   But we have the ability to hide our emotions and looking in from the outside it seems well with my soul. I also used to say ‘ the thing you hate the most will come upon you ’ and it actually did.   Drugs are something I despised and the sad part it destroyed my family.   The person that was involved with drugs didn’t come to realize the destruction he caused.      Sadly we cannot turn back time and go and fix our mistakes, we all have learned from this destructive mechanism and since moved on. ...

‘Do it heartily,’

Colossians 3:23 KJV And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men; Have you heard the phrase “good help is hard to find”?   Yes I am sure you have, when someone does a job and they really have not excelled or done their best people normally make that statement.   I feel so irritated when people are given an instruction to do something and then you can see how half-heartedly they perform the task. When I was a young girl both my parents would remind me that I should always strive to do my best in whatever I am doing.   If you do the dishes, do it to your best ability. Today it is on my heart to encourage and remind you to be excellent, doing your best and remember its not for people but for the Lord.   It will be pleasing in the sight of the Lord and He will reward you in due course.   How?   You never know when you will be promoted or receive a bonus for a job well done.    You are a blessin...

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...
