Today Reminder (Korn) – 06 February 2018



A reminder for today
Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. (Matthew 7:7-8)

I am so glad that God loves idiots is the words that Brain Welch uses to explain his life that is saved by our amazing God. He talks about his life that was in ruins regardless all the money they were making as a rock band. He says that he believed that drugs take you to heaven, but God takes you even higher so why settle for less when you can do so much more. He says that his parents were not believers and when he became this Jesus freak they went to the church to find out what happened to their son and as a result they are now Christians. 

He talks about his addictions and how he had to let go of a life that he was so used of. He got custody of his daughter and suddenly he is living a life that makes him struggle with where he is in life. He tried to get sober after his wife left but it did not last. Then he added pills and ended into a hotel rehab, but cocaine was next on the list. 

He talks about the mess he was in because of drugs and a how he needed it even though he knew it was bad for him and could get him in serious trouble. He tried rehab, but it did not help because the doctor could not help him, so he finally ended up in church. He says that the best was when he realised that Jesus is for all and you do not need to be perfect to be saved. He says that he felt a new peace that filled him as he suddenly realised God is real.

He received Jesus and started to have church at his house every day. He said that the overwhelming love that Jesus brought into his life changed him and lifted him. The next day he stopped drugs and Jesus changed his whole life.

He says that now he lives by faith and had to walk away from money and trust God. He says that some of his band members are now also saved and he just gave all his money away to people in need.
His testimony is just amazing and how his life is now touching others. He says that God does not want you to worry because He will carry you through it. 

Now if God can touch a life like that and turn it around, imagine what He can do when we unite in prayer and trust Him. God wants us to share His love and show Him to a world lost in darkness. Be the light and believe with all your heart, because our God is an awesome God.

Lord, we thank you for testimonies like this and we ask that you lead us so that we can touch all with your love and mostly that we do not judge but rather see with your eyes. Break our hearts for what breaks yours. In Jesus name. 

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...
