Remembering dad

No one can comprehend what it meant to loose you. You made life bearable when mum died. You were always there for, showering us with so much love to ensure we knew how much you love us. When you died, I lost my dad, my friend and my protector. It hurts me to think that you are no longer with us, daddy. I am so thankful to God for those special memories we shared and thinking of how we cherished each and every moment of our lives together while you were still alive brings a smile to my face. Those we love don't ever go away, they are always in our hearts and walk with us every day. Thinking of you today and forever Happy birthday dad.

In the depth of the valley the Lord is with you

Where are you Lord when everything looks so bleak and dark. Where are you Lord when everything feels so hopeless. Where are you Lord when I feel I am walking blindly in the valley. When will I come out from the depth of this darkness and hopelessness I read your word for encouragement I read your word for hope I read your word to drown out the voice of the enemy I read your word so that I can hear your voice I read your word to strengthen me I read your word to live through each day Lord I pray you fill me with hope when I have no hope Lord I pray you fill me with joy when it seems there is nothing to celebrate Lord I pray you speak to me when I need direction. Lord I pray you see me through

God has not forgotten you

It may look bleak now but be assured that the Lord has not forgotten you. It may look like that promise you are awaiting will not be fulfilled but be assured that the Lord has not forgotten you It may look like the breakthrough you are believing the Lord for is not coming to pass but be assured that the Lord has not forgotten you How can the Lord forget you? You are imprinted on the palms of His hands. How can the Lord forget you? He hears the cries of your heart How can the Lord forget you? His love for you surpasses your understanding Delay does not mean the Lord has forgotten you, the delay is building your character. God is working on you to change who you are, to change your character. Keep trusting and believing that God's plan will be fulfilled at the right time. You can't see the end result but be rest assured that His perfect plan will be fulfilled at the right time because He is never late, He is never early, He is always right on time. You may not be happy wit...

Four reasons we should not fear

God will provide We should be confident in God’s provision. He has promised to supply all our needs - emotionally, spiritually and physically. We should find contentment in His provision. Contentment is not getting what we want but contentment is wanting what we already have. 1 Tim 6:6-8 says “Yet true religion with contentment is greatest wealth. After all we didn’t bring anything with us when we came into this world and we certainly can carry anything with us when we anyway. So why should we fear when we know that God is more than capable to meet our needs or the needs of those we love. The deepest needs of our heart can only be met by Jesus Christ. I will not fear for I know all my needs will be met by God. God is with us We should be confident of his presence. We don’t know what we are going to face from one day to the next but there is one thing we can be sure of; God will never leave us. SWe will not be afraid because we are not going to face anything alone. So why shoul...

In God we find fulfillment

There is a hole in our lives that only God can fill. A man or woman cannot fill the hole because he or she will always disappoint you A job cannot fill the hole because it is only for a while Material possessions cannot fill the hole because it will not give you peace Only God can fill the hole in your heart. He is the only one that can offer us the joy, peace, love and life that we desire. For in Him we live and move and exist [that is, in Him we actually have our being], as even some of [a]your own poets have said, ‘For we also are His children.’ (Acts 17:28 Amplified Bible)

I will not be shaken

Lord you alone are my refuge that is what your word says. Lord, I run to you this morning, I run to you for my hope is in you alone. I run to you my rock and my salvation, for you are  my fortress where I will not be shaken. I choose to trust in you, I choose to look beyond my circumstances and look to you. I choose to minimise my problems and maximise your power over my life. Psalm 62:8 - Trust in him at all times, you people! Pour out your hearts before him! God is our shelter! (Selah)
