Today Reminder – 30 May 2014 (Day 22 – Everywhere)



A reminder for today
Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path. (Psalm 119:105)

The last two days we have been without electricity and I tell you it is one thing you get used to so easily. The comfort of having power to use all your machines and being able to switch on a light and there is light. Now we have to move the candles from one place to the next and our fridges are defrosting so it is not nice anymore.

As I went out running in the darkness I just realised how fortunate we are and how comfortable our lives has become. Struggling around in the house in the dark to get all my things ready to go out and train I couldn’t stop to think how blessed we are. 

I took a small flashlight with when I ran so that I could follow the roads and watch out for unexpected rocks or obstacles in the road and as I read these verses I couldn’t help to think about that light. It was small but it gave me enough light to guide me safely back home. 

Today God is the light that guides. He is the light that keeps us from stumbling and the light that opens the darkness and carries us home to Him safely. His Word is that very light that I carry in my hand as I run. His Word shows me the obstacles in my way and guides me to overcome them and withstand their misdirection so that I do not fall.

His Word is a light for my way and a guide in my choices.

Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus

Cheers

Just to remind you

When I say that 'I am a Christian', I am not shouting that 'I am clean living. I'm whispering 'I was lost, but now I'm found and forgiven.'  When I say 'I am a Christian', I don't speak of this with pride. I'm confessing that I stumble and need Christ to be my guide.   When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not trying to be strong. I'm professing that I'm weak and need His strength to carry on.  When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not bragging of success. I'm admitting I have failed and need God to clean my mess.  When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not claiming to be perfect. My flaws are far too visible, but God believes I am worth it. When I say 'I am a Christian', I still feel the sting of pain. I have my share of heartaches, so I call upon His name. When I say 'I am a Christian', I'm not holier than you. I’m just a simple sinner who received God...

Today Reminder – 7 August 2014 (Day 5 – Return to Proverbs)

A reminder for today Honour the LORD with your wealth and with the best part of everything you produce. Then he will fill your barns with grain, and your vats will overflow with good wine. (Proverbs 3:9-10) When we realise that all we are and all that we are good at is a blessing from the Lord we soon see how we can honour Him with these wonderful talents. I give all the credit to the Lord for all that I accomplish and all that I do and I am humbled by the way He continues to give me wisdom in my work. The promise here is much greater than we realise. When we honour Him with all that we produce, He will fill our barns and let our vats overflow. This to me means that the more we honour Him in what we produce (do) the more He will bless what we do up to the extend where we will see His blessings and they will leave us completely overwhelmed. In the end all that we have comes from God and He will increase what we have when we seek Him above all and live to bring glory to Him. ...

Today Reminder (Boxes) – 9 November 2017

A reminder for today   I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End [the Eternal One]. (Revelation 22:13 ) When you are reading this, I will be well on my way to my parents. Today is their moving day and we are off to help. Now, when it comes to moving I am almost an expert. We moved a few times and I can tell you it was never fun. Even still today our furniture starts to shake when a truck drives by. Now moving is all about boxes. Your stuff goes into the box and then onto the truck and finally at the new destination the stuff comes out of the box. One thing I can tell you is that with every move our stuff got lesser and lesser, because I gave some away that I thought we do not need anymore. Some would think I just made it less and easier to move. I would argue the opposite, but surely everyone is entitled to their own opinion. When we look at life it is a bit like moving. You see we experience things in life and we box it. This c...
