Trust is such a huge word; people often use it very loosely. Well I trust and often enough that trust gets broken and leaves you hurting. One thing for sure, trust God with all your heart because he never fails. He is always there for you, it's us that fail him. Continuous trust in God is leaves you with peace; an immense amount of peace. I trust God so much and yes sometimes that little voice of the devil comes in and tries to make you doubt but be strong cause God almighty is so so so much stronger then that evil little man thing called lucifer. Remember GOD is:
Love
Possibilities
Knowledge
Wisdom
Power
Kind
Understanding
Faith
Trust
Friend
Father
Mother
Forgiving
Merciful
GOD is all good and wonderful.....

Monday Marvel
Yep it's that time of week yet again; Monday Marvel - definitly not Monday-itis. lols
Morning devotional already done and feeling great. My accomplishment this weekend was a 10 page report. A report which I had to write for a prospective client and of course I wanted it to be super great. Now that it's done I am feeling confident and wonderful that the client will love it. Prior to starting I wondered where to start from and how to go about it to make it exactly what the client wants. Well yet again I turned to God (as I always do) before I got started and told him what I had to do and that I needed his guidance. As always giving time for God before doing anything else and trusting that he would show me the right way. Well guess what; yes you know it... yet again my God never failed me. Once I put my head down and got started, words just kept flowing and I knew exactly where to go to get what I needed and before I even knew it I was finished. God is just amazing over and over and over again. I love that he is there and wants to take care of us; all we have to do is ask, believe, obey and he will deliver. Thank you Abba Father for loving me and taking me through the dark times. You make them so much brighter and you give me hope and peace that passes all understanding. xo

Prayer
Do you pray enough in the day? I pray many times a day and I do it sitting or standing and whilst I am in the middle of things as well. I just spend time talking to God, it could be a short prayer or just a good old conversation with God. I love these moments because I feel so much closer to God; it's like talking to a parent. Giving them your good and bad moments; seeking advise and trusting and knowing that they will give you good answers. My everyday is as such and just by doing this I am confident and brave to face the world and what it brings me. Trust God with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. :)

Time with God
it was one of those days where I found it so difficult to get out of bed but when I thought of my time with God, I quickly stood. I wasn't out of fear but just knowing how good it felt to have this time made me get out of bed. :) Spending time with God in prayer or meditation is the best time of my day. Try it, it's so enjoyable that you look forward to it every day. xo

LOVE & OBEY
5.15 the alarm went off; trying real hard to make it out of bed early then the usual. I am making it my business now to get up early, give more time to God, read my bible and then onto some work. What a great way to start the day. Thanking God for all his blessings and love. LOVE a four letter word that so many of us find so hard to do. OBEY another four letter word that we find so hard to do. Loving and obeying God is so so important. As humans we find this extremely difficult but truly we can't say we love God if we can't love those here on earth. We have to love everyone and then only we can say we love God. We can't say bad things about someone and say, we love God. I am learning things day by day and each day I am trying harder to ensure I obey God's word and love everyone around me. Remove bad feelings and replace them with love. Look at people differently; take away the outer flesh and think, we are all spirits and are one and the same; there is no difference between the man or woman next door and you. :) God wants us to love and truly love with all our heart and then only can we say we love God. Yes I know it's difficult but remember what the bible says: Do unto others as you would have done unto you. xo
Luke 6:31
Do to others as you would have them do to you.
Romans 13:8
Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.
Romans 13:10
Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.
Galatians 5:14
For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: "Love your neighbor as yourself."
James 2:8
If you really keep the royal law found in Scripture, "Love your neighbor as yourself," you are doing right.
Luke 6:31
Do to others as you would have them do to you.
Romans 13:8
Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.

Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

God Is Truly Amazing
Isn't God just amazing; sitting here thinking about it and can't for the life of me understand how some people can't see it. God is our life line and without it we have no life! I truly love the lord and even though trials set in I believe that God will always be there to get me out of it. Believe and it will happen; Trust and it will happen, Faith can move mountains remember.... Just trust it will happen.
My Morning Prayer
Lord when I open my eyes this morning my first thoughts are
upon you alone. Before my mind begins to wonder and I become preoccupied with
my responsibilities for the day, I commit my mind and thoughts unto you.
On my chair I sit silently as I meditate on your goodness
and glory. I listen with an open heart and receive your divine wisdom and direction.
I cast down every negative thought and fiery dart of the enemy that would lead
me in the wrong direction. I claim your peace that passes all understanding. I
have the mind of Christ.
Lord I commit my body unto you this morning as a living
sacrifice wholly and acceptable and ready for service. I am ready and willing
to give a helping hand, a word of encouragement and carry out any task as unto
you. I am your servant and a reflection of your love.
My body is the temple of the Holy Spirit; it is fearfully
and wonderfully made. I commit my body unto you today and will honor it by
giving it the nourishment and exercise it needs to stay healthy and whole. By
faith I possess the power of the Holy Spirit to help me avoid temptation and
walk in victory.
Today is the day the lord has made; I will rejoice and be
glad in it. I will give full attention to this day only. I will love with all
my heart, listen with all ears and see with great intensity taking notice of
every kind gesture, every hurting heart, every laughable moment and the beauty
in all you created.
I will perform every task, even the smallest routine endeavors
with focus and purpose. I release the memories of the past and leave the future
in God’s hands. I will live today with all the zest, love, joy and enthusiasm
life offers. I have so much to be
thankful for.
I release the need to worry, be anxious or depressed today.
God is in control of all my circumstances and working all things out for my
highest good even if I can’t see it right now. I commit unto the Lord any
emotional hurt, physical pain or distress and by faith claim my wholeness and
healing now.
I walk by an unmovable and unshakable faith; a faith in God
that moves obstacles out of my way or gives me the strength to endure them.
I am successful in everything I do for whatever good thing I
touch prospers in time. I never give up or give in to discouragement; I command
every giant to get out of my way. My steps are ordered by the Lord and I am
walking in God’s divine plan and purpose for my life.
Right now today at this moment I am whole and complete in
Christ. All my needs are met, I feel light and carefree and full of God’s love,
hope and power. I open my eyes unto a new day filled with God’s wonder,
miracles and adventure and I take Jesus where ever I go.

God's Gift's To Us
Watching a little kid on You Tube singing God's praise; how wonderful. God has given him such a great gift, his voice, and with this he is sharing God's word and might. How wonderful to see... are we using our God given gifts for God's work? What an amazing child this is all the way in Brazil.... just amazing. Love you Jesus! x

Being Defensive...
I read an email this morning; it was someone's reply to a complaint. I was suprised at how defensive this person was rather then being understanding. Of course at times complaints can be exagerated however being defensive is not the answer to solving the challenge. We are so quick to put our defense mechanism's up rather then be understanding of the situation and try to assist. God wants us to be helpful rather then attacking. Try today to be helpful to people and see how good it will make you feel and how rewarding it will be and you will find the challenge that you had (if there was one) will just go away because people will respond to you the way you respond to them. :)

Smile - It's Free
Well it's Friday (woohoo) and am getting ready for cruise liner today. When I woke and looked out the window it was kinda over cast and this just didn't sit right with me. I asked God to please, please clear the skies as I need our 3 trips out today; it's not a want but a need...lols. Well guess what, the skies are clear now and the sun is out! Now don't get me wrong, I need the rain for my gardens for sure but perhaps God will be so gracious to keep the taps turned off till at least 7pm and then open up the skies to water the plants of the earth. Today my heart is light and full of good things, it's such a great feeling to wake up and know that God is looking out for you. How great it is knowing that you don't have to worry because there is a higher power watching every step you take. He is ready to wrap you in his arms and comfort you, ready to carry you when you are weary and ready to take your burdens; so with that said, go out today and be that shining light that God wants you to be. Make someone happy by smiling at them or saying hello when they least expect it. xoxo

Strange sleep last night....I woke up finding myself saying thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus, thank you Jesus. I often do that in my sleep and whilst I am awake. I can never thank him enough! It's so easy to forget to do but once you get into the habbit of it, it becomes second to nothing. I thank him each day for the good, the bad and the ugly, yep the ugly stuff as well.. Got up at 5am, couldn't go back to sleep so sat here meditating just thanking and being grateful. It's so fantastic to know that Jesus is there by your side day in and day out! It's a super super fantastic feeling actually; I can't stress enough how I feel today... yep the devil tried to step in but I soon put him in his place...get thee behind me.. you devil you!! No room at this inn for you....lols. Well it's off to shower and work now and boy what a way to start the day. There's a song I was listening to ... "Jesus on the mainline tell him what you want...." such a great song. Try it, I do it everyday, umpteen times a day actually. I am constantly calling him up and asking, he probably is sitting there in heaven telling his angels that it's the nuisance yet again...lols.... My Jesus delivers over and over again. LOVE

Kick Start
I woke up feeling a tad negative. Why you ask? Well being the person I am I always have to be doing something, always have to have money in the bank, always have to be earning. When this is not happening, the negative claws start to get at me. My mind goes hay wire and all these bits of worry start to fall into the cracks. So this morning when this happened, I did what I usually do, I started talking to myself telling me how crazy I am for feeling this way because Jesus will take are of it all. I questioned myself of my faith and trust for God and kept reminding myself of the mustard seed. Yes the Mustard Seed.... Whenever I get myself into this type of tizz, the mustard seed always comes into play. "Faith as big as a mustard seed can move mountains". So with my mustard seed, I head to the study, sit at my lap top and open facebook to post my verse for the day and guess what, my lovely cousin is there with a message for me. It was so lovely to hear from her and God gave her the insight to message me because I needed it. She was the one who encouraged me to do this blog and what a brilliant idea! As soon as she mentions it, instantly my negative goes away. The MUSTARD SEED at work!!
Mathew 17:20 And He said to them, "Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there,' and it will move; and nothing will be impossible to you.
