A
reminder for today
Many
sacrifices were offered on that joyous day, for God had given the people cause
for great joy. The women and children also participated in the celebration, and
the joy of the people of Jerusalem could be heard far away. (Nehemiah 12:43)
God
had given the people cause for great joy – So yet another week
has come to an end as we are well on our way into Friday. It has been an
amazing week with so many blessings from a wonderful God. This verse just
opened to me today as I have so much cause for great joy. It is amazing how the
Lord helps us and directs us into the right direction. I am always amazed at
the wonder of God’s work in my life and in the lives of those I meet each day.
So today I would like to end this week with a dedication
to my Lord.
As the wind rushes past our house my heart rushes to meet
you Lord. Everything that I am and that I achieve comes from your great love
and I celebrate my blessings with a joyous heart and hands lifted up to you. I will
sing your praises Lord and dedicate my life of change for you and for your
glory. Every moment of each day and every breath that I take comes from you and
I shall fear none for You are with me and within me. I will stand up in the
midst of my storms and seek your face and follow your voice as I comfortably
rest in your hands. I am your servant Lord and I will follow You no matter how
difficult the way becomes and how hard it seems. My heart belongs to You Lord,
there is no other like you. In your presence I will find my peace and in your
joy I will find my strength.
Lord, I pray that you lift us up today and give us
strength and joy as we enter the weekend. I pray that you will give us peace
and rest so that we will reflect your glory from within. I pray that you take
us through this weekend safely in your hands so that we can start Monday with
renewed energy ready for new challenges. Lord I pray that in our rest we will
honour you and remember that you are the giver of peace and the light that
separates us from the dark. Lord bless our weekend and let us bring honour to
you in every moment throughout our weekend.
My dear friend, it has been a privilege to write to you
this week and I look forward to next week as we continue our journey towards a
life of change. I am glad that we could share in the treasure that lies within
God’s Word this week and I know that next week we will find more of God’s
wonder in His Word as He continues to remind us about the things we need to
focus, on for a life of change. May you
have an amazing weekend and time to rest for the week ahead. Be blessed my
friend and may God’s peace and joy fill your weekend.
Have and awesome day dear friend of Jesus
Cheers
