A
reminder for today
Shout
with joy to the LORD, all the earth! Worship the LORD with gladness. Come
before him, singing with joy. Acknowledge that the LORD is God! He made us, and
we are his. We are his people, the sheep of his pasture. Enter his gates with
thanksgiving; go into his courts with praise. Give thanks to him and praise his
name. For the LORD is good. His unfailing love continues forever, and his
faithfulness continues to each generation. (Psalm 100)
So yesterday was Election Day here in South Africa
marking 20 years of democracy. So many good and bad things have happened in
these 20 years with many racial tensions and racial conflicts between the
different cultures that is living here in our beautiful country.
As I stood there in the row looking at all the different
people waiting to make their mark in the hope of a better South Africa I could
not help but to think of the Lord and how important it is that we know Him in
this process and know that He is actively involved in the coming changes.
So many of us have prayed for positive change in a united
and democratic South Africa and this brings me to our theme. Today the Lord is
in my vote. He is in my choices and in my directions. He is my guide and He is
my Shepherd. He has made us and we are His. We are His people, the sheep of His
pasture.
Let us enter today with thanksgiving and go to our
workplaces with praise giving thanks to Him as we praise His name. The Lord is
good and His unfailing love continues forever.
We are in His hands as we start a new and exciting time
in our country and in the world for that matter. It is so important today that
everybody should know Jesus Christ and what He did for us.
Come and let is worship the Lord with gladness, singing
with joy.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
