It’s time to trust the Lord

Ephesians 1: 11 “He makes everything work out according to His plan.”

This is a “light bulb” moment for me today, “He makes everything work out according to His plan.” My question is what plan? I have been thinking about this and it is clear God said in Jeremiah 29: 11 “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” 

Let’s carefully take a look at these words in scripture, God said “For I know the plans I have for you.” To my mind God knows me and is thinking about me.  God said “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” Wow, did you see that, God wants me to prosper and that no harm comes my way. God said he wants to give me hope and a future.

The good work God has started in me will be carried out until the Lord Jesus Christ returns to this earth. I am a “work in progress.”

Prayer

Lord as I feel that I am a work in progress, thank you for watching over me. Thank you also for the word for today. Thank you that I may come to You today. Lord thank you, that You are making everything work out according to You plan for my life. I adore and worship You. I love You. In the Holy Name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, Amen.

In pursuit of my dream!

Joshua 1: 9 “Be strong and courageous.”

I have been busy with a number of projects and I am also working on my Dream. You don’t understand the pressure I put myself under to get everything done. I have been blessed with a job for a couple of months which I dearly appreciate.

I have the means to help my mom and bring my tithing to the Lord. This is important to me because I need to show that I am serious about my life and drawing near to God.

Sometimes I feel I just cannot make it but God has been good to me and has supported me in my difficult times.  I am waiting and trusting in God to move me forward.  And suddenly my life will improve and I will be able to help mom properly.

Prayer

Lord as I pray today, please Lord help me complete my tasks around my project, help me with wisdom and insight and show me how to improve my project.  Lord help me do the best I can always in Jesus Name.  Amen

It’s Monday – a new week

James 1: 4 “Allow perseverance to finish its work, so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything.” Berean Study Bible

I walked into my office this morning switched on the air conditioner and then walked over to my desk and switched on my laptop.  Taking a seat behind the desk I waited for the laptops prompt to type in my password.  Yes, it’s Monday, the weekend flew by. 

My colleagues walked through the door something happened yesterday.  Someone passed away; I heard them say “there is just no relaxing, we never have any peace.”

Life is so short and we don’t seem to realise it. You need to persevere and do the best you can each and every day.  Tomorrow isn’t promised remember that.

This weekend I visited my Mom and Oom Frik, it was so nice to see them.  They are aging and it’s clear they seem to be forgetting things.  I want to pray that God will give me the necessary means to help them going forward and when the time come be there for the both of them.

Prayer

O Lord God, You know that I have been doing my best and that my moto is to never give up.  Lord I bring Oom Frik and Mommy before You today, help them.  They are so far away from family and they need Your help.  Please Lord open a door for them to come closer to home where we can keep a watchful eye over them. In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth Amen.

Show Compassion towards your parents please.

May God bless you for showing compassion towards your parents. God is watching each on of us and sees our hearts.

It was so wonderful to see Mommy and Oom Frik.  We really enjoyed the visit and it was so clear that Mommy and Oom Frik went out of their way to make us feel welcome.

I had to laught Mommy couldnt even unlock the door because she wanted us to say a little longer. Ag, Mommy we will come and visit you again.

Lord please bless Mommy and Oom Frik today and the rest of this year, in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

Yippy, it's Friday ... I want to wish you a wonderful day today and a special weekend. Full of laughter, smiles and happy moments. See you at church on Sunday and back at work on Monday.  Big smiles are expected Summer is around the corner.  Spring is coming into play.

Whom do you confide in?

Proverbs 11: 13 “Those who are trustworthy can keep a confidence.”

If I need help with a problem in my personal life I normally speak to my husband or my kids. What I have realized is that not everyone is trustworthy.  The person I always confide in is my husband when it concerns my personal problems. 

When it is about my faith I speak to my daughter as we are both on the same page and I feel comfortable sharing with her. In general my confidence is in my own family, I rarely trust other people. 

My problem is that in the past people have disappointed me and because of their actions I actually do not confide in close friends. Some people talk too much and I have noticed they speak out. 

I have noticed that most people won’t back a loser. Trusting in God is the only way forward in my case. I feel I cannot go wrong.

Prayer

Lord thank You, for teaching us through Your word. We know that You are always available for us. Bless our lives today in the name of Jesus Christ. Amen
