Friday thoughts


Luke 22: 27

"who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves?"

To serve people isn't always easy,
I find you start feeling like a servant.
But to grow spiritually
I feel that I need to be of service to my fellow friend
God has been so good to me
I am able to bake cakes
decorating them according to the spec
My service to my friends
is important to me.
I am grateful that I can bake cakes
Being of service to others.
God is in control and always making a way for me.
As I think of the weekend ahead of me
I know I need to be of service to others
I need to consider other peoples needs above my own

Lord Jesus, please 
bless each person reading this message
give them the necessary
wisdom and understanding 
and let us be of service
to others. 
in Your holy name
Jesus, Amen

Scripture for Sunday

   

Overcoming failure

Psalm 73:26 Amplified Bible (AMP)

My flesh and my heart may fail,
But God is the rock and strength of my heart and my portion forever.

I live in Witbank, a town in Mpumalanga, it's not very impressive there are so many potholes on the road you can hardly see the road from the sand road. 

I believe my life also has a couple of potholes, it seems like I am doing fine and then I hit a ditch. My whole life comes to a halt. I failed at something important and now I have to deal with the consequences. You know that feeling, when is this going to stop? I have come to realize I should change my attitude and things will get better. Instead of saying "when is this going to stop?" I should be saying this is a "learning experience" I need to take something away from this.

This morning I came to work in my car and the poor thing is really old and didn't want to go up the hill. I was frustrated but then I realized that I should learn to be patient and just let the car drive. It cannot go faster and I cannot do anything about it. I could have been angry by the time I reached my office but I am feeling a little irritated but not so bad. I realized this is one way to teach me to be patient. 

I want to defeat this problem but I cannot do anything about it. God knows my heart and sees me for who I am. I need to stay focused on Him and not the problem. It will change in time. I am more than a conquer. 

Lord in all humility I pray help me today, guide me and give me the necessary wisdom and insight, help me stand firm and please bear with me. I want to be more than a conquer through You Lord. Amen
