The Simple Things in Life

I pray today that you will appreciate the simple things in life, the rainbow across the clouds, the butterfly and it’s beauty, the rose in the garden, the birds of the air, the horse grazing on the fields. I pray today that you will appreciate that you were able to afford to eat when others could not, that you were able to get up this morning when others could not, that you are able to talk this morning when someone just lost their voice. I pray that if you have children, you will appreciate them as a gift from God, as someone somewhere is desperately looking for a child of their own. I pray that you will appreciate that you are still alive today and not take it for granted, as somebody somewhere is wishing they could live longer and spend more time with their family. I pray that you will appreciate the seasons, the sun shining and giving brightness, the moon shining, giving light, the rain falling, making our crops grow so we can have food to eat. I pray that you will appreciate every moment of everyday, as each day and each moment is precious. I pray that God will bless you as you take the time to appreciate His gift of life. I pray that the light of God will shine upon you as you take the time to appreciate the work of His creation. God bless you as you appreciate each moment of everyday. Today is a new day; I pray that you will have a blessed day today and everyday.

Things Will Get Better

I am thanking God today that you are reading this blog right now. No matter what you may be going through, I pray that joy, happiness and fulfillment will be your portion. In these hard times, I pray that God will give you wisdom to find the solution to your problems. I pray that you will have the courage to deal with the issues that trouble you in life. I pray that God will give you grace in your times of weakness. Instead of getting angry and upset with yourself and wondering how you got yourself into the situation you are in right now, I pray that you will find the courage to kneel down and ask God for help. I pray that you will finally accept your weakness and ask God for the strength to carry you through. I pray that God will restore your confidence and that if you have a low self-esteem, that His love will reassure you. I pray that you will learn to take one day and live one day at a time. As each day presents it's own challenges, I pray that God will give you the wisdom and strength needed for you to face every challenge that comes with each day. I pray that you will come to know that the battle is not yours to fight but that the battle is the Lord's. God bless you as you leave behind the worries of yesterday and learn to take one day at a time. I thank God that from this hour your depression will be lifted and that you will feel better in yourself. God bless you now and always.

The Sacrifice Of Love

Hello again,

Yes, I keep writing about love, but I believe God wants you to understand certain things about HIM, so you can have a better and eternal life. Have you ever loved someone so much that you’d do anything for that person, yet he or she never responds, or the person does not even recognise your presence let alone give back that love in return? It hurts so bad doesn’t it? Sometimes, you get angry, but you can’t do anything because of the ‘love’ you have for the person….

Whilst in the shower this morning God told me that:

That’s how HE feels when we do not respond to HIS love
That’s how HE feels when we curse HIS name and take HIM for granted
That’s how HE feels when we don't listen to HIM, let alone acknowledge HIS presence

God has feelings and HE is talking to you right now. HE loves you so much that HE gave HIS only son as a sacrifice. Accept this love and your life will never be the same again.

Now take a moment and think, assuming that person you love, loves you back even more than you love him or her, what happens? You find yourself doing things sacrificially for each other and things work out well……that is the relationship God craves for from you.

Think about it and give it a try, human beings can and will let you down but God will never let you down ….

Bye for now and remain blessed.

Uncommon Love

Abba Father in Heaven,

I thank you for my sisters and brothers out there. Many are the words and thoughts of my utmost desire, but Father your son Jesus knows better than I do. Therefore, I beseech you oh Jesus to pray for my sisters and brothers.

Heal them of their heart pain, heal them of their soul pain, and heal them of the pain in their being. Touch them with your uncommon love and let them know that because there is life there is hope. Heal them from deep within where words cannot express the anguish and distraught. Heal them from every freckle of trouble that always seems to show in certain seasons in their life.

God is love and may the love of God continually dwell in you and around you.

Strength To Persevere

This morning I think about the pain that I sometimes go through and also consider the pain of others. My prayer today is that no matter how great the pain in your heart, you will find peace in the midst of adversity. No matter how insulted you might feel right now by life, people, circumstances etc., I pray that God will give you the grace and strength to persevere. No matter how rejected you might feel today, may you find strength in your heart to continue loving the unlovable. May you find the strength to continue on this long and arduous journey, and may God be your anchor in times of weakness. May His strength be made perfect in your weakness and may He shephered you through the difficult times. God bless you as you continue and not give up. Have a lovely day.

I Speak To You

I speak healing – no more sickness of any kind,
I speak life – you’re going to live and not die,
I speak success – were you told you are a failure? You cannot fail and you will never fail
You are courageous
You are bold
You are strong
You are victorious
The love of God shall continually dwell in you
The meekness and gentleness of Christ shall be your trait
The humour and wisdom of the Holy Spirit shall anchor you
Peace, harmony and joy are all yours forever.
Have a serene and wonderful day!

My Prayer For You

Today I am going to pray for your family, as the family unit is the most important in our lives. God created the family for relationship and I pray that God will look after you and your family. As no family is perfect, may the love of God bind you and your family together. May God's strength be made perfect in your weakness. If you feel that your family does not care and you've been left alone to suffer, may God raise up people for you who will be like a family and a pillar to you. May you find comfort in the love of friends. If you are offended by some kind of abuse or lack of love given to you by your family, if there are disputes within your family that you are not able to resolve, I pray that you will be able to give this burden over to God and let Him intervene on your behalf. I pray that today will be the beginning of a healing process for you. I pray that God will heal you, make you whole and reconcile you with your family. May the Lord plant a hedge of protection around you and your family. Finally, may the Lord bless you and keep you, may He cause his face to shine upon you and give you peace.

SOAR LIKE AN EAGLE

I pray that you will see this day as a new chapter in your life. I pray that you will try and forget about what happened yesterday and soar like an eagle. An eagle continues to fly no matter what. I pray that the spirit of God will lift up the spirit in your inner man so that you can soar. I pray that the cobwebs of your mind will be blown away by the Spirit of God so that you can find peace. I pray that you will be able to accept yourself for who you are and accept God for who He is, a caring and loving God. May the peace of God that passes all understanding guard and guide your heart in Christ. May your day be abundantly blessed.

Grace and Peace to you

I pray that God will bless you and give you the strength needed to go through the day. If you had an argument before you left home today, I pray the peace of God will quieten your heart and spirit. If you need to ask for forgiveness, my prayer is that you will be humble enough to relinquish your rights and forgive whoever has wronged you for the sake of your own peace. May today be a better day for you than yesterday and may your tomorrows be greater. May the love of God embrace you even now. Grace and peace to you.
