Fruits to be desired

Fruits of the Spirit:


The fruit of the Spirit is Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness, Goodness, Faithfulness, Gentleness, Self-control.

Oh how often Love is rejected from my thoughts and I am consumed with anger and hate

Oh how often instead of joy, my heart has embraced sorrow over trivial everyday things

Oh how often kindness has been overlooked and meanness has been uplifted

Oh how often instead of peace I have resolved to conflict 

Oh how often instead of having faith in Christ I have given way to doubt and fear

Oh how often I have lost self- control and given into temptations

Oh how often instead of patience I have given way to misery

Oh how often gentleness is far from my mind

Oh how often goodness has just not been my portion

Oh how often I have forgotten to listen to the voice of the Spirit and listened to my flesh instead

Oh who can save me from me

But my hope is not lost

For Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path

How precious are Your Words to me God

Write Your Word on the tablet of my heart

Help me to mediate on it all the time

Its like sweet medicine to my soul 

Healing all the wounds 

Cleaning all the dirt and grime

Let me walk in your ways

For your ways are a delight to my soul

Money cannot buy the peace I find in you

Oh how I long for the manna you would provide 

I eagerly look to the skies 

Dear God, you won't fail me

You will strengthen me with your Word

Your Holy Spirit will guide me

Give me grace 

Give me grace just once 

To live by your word with the help of the Spirit

My heart will skip with gladness

I will forget all my worries

Because in you I am complete

In Jesus name Amen

FAITHFUL

Image
 FAITHFUL               Who is like you,  Lord   God Almighty?        You,  Lord , are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.                Psalms 89: 8              Love and Faithfulness are like two sides of the coin when we think of God's character. He is full of love and He is a very faithful person.             How do you imagine God when you think of Him? I imagine God like the One that Ezekiel saw in a vision. Ezekiel 1: 26, 27 Above the vault over their heads was what looked like a throne of lapis lazuli, and high above on the throne was a figure like that of a man.   I saw that from what appeared to be his waist up he looked like glowing metal, as if full of fire, and that from there down he looked like fire; and brilliant light surrounded him. Ezekiel saw God in His glory. God had the appearance of man yet glowing in brilliance. Remember He made us in His image! Here is a picture to boost your imagination!

The Purpose

Image
THE PURPOSE God's creation                    God's creation is beautiful. Genesis 1 briefs how God created different things in 6 days  and he rested on day 7.                 Genesis 1: 1-3               In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was without form and void and darkness was on the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God was hovering over the face of the waters. Then God said, "Let there be light" and there was light. And God saw the light, that it was good; and God divided the light from the darkness. God called the light Day, and the darkness He called Night. So the evening and morning were the first day.             God saw there was a need. It says that the earth was formless, empty and dark. When God saw the need, He started to do something about it. He spoke and light appeared. God was pleased and called the light as "day" and the darkness as "Night".                 1. God sees a need.                2.

The Journey

Image
                                                                                            The Journey At birth, a baby travels from its mother's womb and comes into this world. As it grows, it transitions from the loving confines of its home to school then to college, workplace, setting up a household and raising up children of its own kind and then becomes old and departs from this Earth. It’s a journey every human being undertakes. It’s a journey that everyone is familiar with. But do you know there is another journey we all travel?             Just as our flesh has its own course, so also the spirit that God kept inside of us has a course to run. I like to call it "The Journey of Faith". The journey of our flesh will come to an end when we die. But the spirit has an eternal journey to undertake.           This journey appears in the Bible for the first time in Genesis 12, when God calls our father Abraham to go to the land which He shows him.    Genesis 12: 1
