Yvette's Whispers of Faith

Birth of Jesus Foretold Luke 1: 30 ESV And the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favour with God."

Come to Me, and I Will give you Rest Matthew 11: 28-30 ESV Come to me, all who labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Israel's Joy and Restoration Zephaniah 3: 17 ESV "The LORD your God is in your midst, a mighty one who will save: he will rejoice over you with gladness: he will quiet you by his love: he will exult over you with loud singing."

Wait for the God of Salvation Micah 7: 7 ESV "But as for me, I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my Salvation; my god will hear me."

Isaiah 40: 31 ESV “but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength: they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint.” As a young person, I used to believe "its one thing after another." We were struggling financially. Now I realise that "life isn't one thing after another." I think when you are young, you are impatient. I want this right now I don't want to save up for that specific thing. When reading Isaiah 40 verse 31 "but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint." It is clear that I never want to wait. The waiting part is just too long. Why wait when I can buy something on credit? I believe I lacked Godly wisdom. I didn't truly trust the LORD wholeheartedly. In perspective, those were difficult days because of my impatience. I d...

The LORD's Faithless Bride Ezekiel 16: 6 ESV "And when I passed by you and saw you wallowing in your blood, I said to you in your blood, "Live!" I said to you in your blood, "Live!"

For to Us, a Child Is Born Isaiah 9: 6 ESV "For to us, a child is born, to us a son is given; and the government shall be  upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

Matthew 18: 22 (KJV) “Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, until seven times: but, until seventy times seven.” Yes, I’m angry and have been for a couple of weeks, I am struggling to shake off this angry feeling and the person I am angry with is constantly doing their level best to irritate me. Pushing all my buttons and going out of their way to make me angry. I was thinking about this problem and it struck me the longer I feel resentment and feelings of carelessness towards this person the bigger the problem in my own life. When my children were younger I would always say what would Jesus do? I thought about this matter today and I wonder if the Lord Jesus is watching me He must be disappointed in me. I am so angry at this person I cannot stay focused on the Lord. While I’m so angry I just cannot get around to praying and getting on with my life. Today I want to stop this reaction towards this person, I am going to be friendly and keep them at a distance. I wi...
