Today Reminder (God is good) – 3 December 2018


A reminder for today
The LORD is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him. (Nahum 1:7)

It was a good weekend. My kids were with me and then I am calm and relaxed. We had lots of fun and I soaked up every moment, because when they are not with me, I am miserable. Maybe one day, if it is God’s will they will stay with me every day. That would be a good day.

How was you weekend? I helped my church on Friday with a software issue they had, and I am again amazed at how God just fills me with wisdom and guidance so that I can do things that may seem difficult to some. It is in these moments when I am just amazed that I feel His presence so much closer. Every day I work to get closer to Him and every day He pulls me closer. 

The barriers of this world that used to keep me from His blessings are now broken and I spend more time in His presence daily. I am so blessed, and I must say the way God has blessed me and helped me in the last weeks is amazing.

God is good, all the time and all the time God is good. He is my strong hold in my day of trouble. He is the rock that keeps me steady in the winds and the waves when my kids are not with me. He knows me, because I completely trust in Him and in Him alone. He is my fortress when the enemy is trying to pull me under and He is my shield against the arrows that is coming my way.

He is my strength and my stability. He is my Father and my saviour. He is the reason I am here and the reason I am alive. He is my God and the only God I worship. He is good, and, in His goodness, I am released from this world and pulled into His world. I am not of this world, but I am a child of God and a citizen of heaven. 

God is your strong hold, my friend. A place of comfort and peace. He is my calm, my strength, my hope and my joy. I am in awe of His love and mercy in my life. His goodness and His blessings. Be strong, my friend. Be courageous, be righteous and be fearless. 

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...
