Today Reminder – 02 June 2015 (Day 2 – Break the walls)



A reminder for today
It is the LORD who created the stars the Pleiades and Orion. He turns darkness into morning and day into night.
He draws up water from the oceans and pours it down as rain on the land. The LORD is his name! (Amos 5:8)

This past weekend must have been my worst weekend ever. We had to tell the kids and my eldest son wanted to stay with me. Unfortunately that is not possible for he is still too young and here it is documented that children of their age must remain with the mother. My heart shattered into a million pieces and it took a lot to calm him and reassure him that all will be fine.

There were moments that I looked up desperately seeking Him. The Holy Spirit must have taken over, because in the midst of a huge argument He calmed me and made me see that He is there and all will be fine. I was so angry. I felt those walls rise up but the Lord came and destroyed them. He came and strengthened me. He came and turned my darkness into morning.

I felt helpless and defeated. This scripture just lifted my spirits. You see He created the stars and the Pleiades and Orion. Nothing is impossible for this God we worship. He draws up water from the ocean and lets it rain on the land. We might be in the midst of one of the greatest tests of our lives. We might find ourselves facing impossible odds. 

What you need to remember today is that the LORD is his name!  And He will not us face challenges above our own abilities. He is the Lord and nothing is impossible with Him. Let the rain from our oceans pour over the walls that made so that they will crumble and fall. 

Have and 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...
