THANKSGIVING..

I have never had to struggle for want of what to write but I have literally spent the past minutes just staring at my screen.... where do I start from is the issue at hand How do I compress the faithfulness of GOD to me in just a post...hmmmm.. I turn 28 today..yet it seems I have been here longer.. I marvel at the quality and the richness of my life.. The wealth of experience and all that God has invested in me... For all his many blessings,For his favour and his Presence  Lord for all these and more..I say thank you I woke up today with gratitude,with a heart full of praise...God has been Good to me.. I take a walk down memory lane and I go back 15 years  to a time when I first accepted Jesus. What I am most grateful for is this decision I made to follow hard after JESUS A lot of times I failed Him,strayed away,messed up,blew my chances But His mercy never ceased and  I kept seeking and running after him.. I have come a long way 15 years later,I still love the lord r

I AM NOT DEAD YET

I am not much of the gardening type as much as I love flowers and pot plants, It takes quite a bit of an effort for me to give the flowers and pot plants in my front yard the attention they deserve... but I must admit they add such beauty and charm to my front yard. lately I have just been too pre-occupied with all that has been happening in my life and around me to even notice that I have plants to feed and nurture.. 2 weeks ago I noticed that they had all withered and the leaves were dry,brittle and falling,especially with the summer..

I HAVE NEWS FOR YOU

News..... What comes to mind any time someone says I have news for you? News...hmmmm I remember a few months ago I was told the outcome of my daughter's test results and the doctor said..I am afraid it is not great news.. Two things come to mind every time you are told you have news Two things...FEAR or FAITH... Fear of the known or Unknown or Faith in the one who Knows it all. Last week...the same words I heard months ago were repeated again.. Stella am so sorry but it is not great news.. It took a while for the enormity of the news to sink in. But as it sunk,I was overcome with emotion I struggled to hold back tears..not again Lord.. I looked at the report before me and I could sense fear rising.. What was I going to do.. who was I going to believe I could hear the holyspirit reminding me of God's promises That affliction would not arise a second time.. I could hear the enemy saying..but you trusted and had faith but where is the result of your faith..
