To All My Beautiful Christian Sisters

BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN SISTER

By Maya Angelou

'A woman's heart should be so hidden in Christ
That a man should have to seek Him first to find her.'

When I say... 'I am a Christian' I'm not shouting 'I'm clean living,'
I'm whispering 'I was lost, 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 thou,
I'm just a simple sinner Who received God's good grace, somehow!

TO MY BEAUTIFUL CHRISTIAN GIRLFRIENDS , YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE ...


Thank you for your support, your commitments and your friendship, I cherish each and everyone of YOU!

The Worker's 23rd Psalm!! @ My Daily Texts.

The Worker's 23^rd Psalm

The Lord is my boss, and I shall not want.

He gives me peace, when chaos is all around me.

He reminds me to pray, before I speak in anger.

He restores my sanity.

He guides my decisions that I might honor Him in all I do.

Even though I face absurd amounts of e-mail, system failures, copier jams, back-ordered supplies, unrealistic deadlines, staff shortages, budget cutbacks, red tape, downsizing, gossiping co-workers and whining customers,

I won't give up, for You are with me.

Your presence, peace and power will see me through.

You raise me up, even when the boss fails to promote me.

You claim me as your own, even when the company threatens to let me go.

Your loyalty and love are better than a bonus check.

Your retirement plan beats any 401K, and when it's all said and done,

I'll be working for you a whole lot longer!

Spiritual Sundays ~CREATION CALLS~

Creation Calls

Brian Doerksen

I have felt the wind blow,
Whispering your name?
I have seen your tears fall,
When I watch the rain.

(Refrain)
How could I say there is no God?
When all around creation calls!!
A singing bird, a mighty tree,
The vast expanse of open sea?

(Musical interlude)

Gazing at a bird in flight,
Soaring through the air.
Lying down beneath the stars,
I feel your presence there.

I love to stand at ocean shore
And feel the thundering breakers roar,
To walk through golden fields of grain
With endless bloom horizons fray.

Listening to a river run,
Watering the Earth.
Fragrance of a rose in bloom,
A newborns cry at birth.

(Refrain)

I love to stand at ocean shore
And feel the thundering breakers roar,
To walk through golden fields of grain
With endless bloom horizons fray

I believe
I believe
I believe

(Interlude)

I believe
I believe
I believe just like a child
(Choir I believe?..)

I believe

THAN SING MY SOUL SATURDAY

" IN CHRIST ALONE "

In Christ alone will I glory
Though I could pride myself in battles won
For I’ve been blessed beyond measure
And by His strength alone I’ll overcome
Oh, I could stop and count successes like diamonds in my hands
But those trophies could not equal to the grace by which I stand

[chorus]
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone

In Christ alone do I glory
For only by His grace I am redeemed
For only His tender mercy
Could reach beyond my weakness to my need
And now I seek no greater honor in just to know Him more
And to count my gains but losses to the glory of my Lord

[chorus]
In Christ alone
I place my trust
And find my glory in the power of the cross
In every victory
Let it be said of me
My source of strength
My source of hope
Is Christ alone

Thankful Thursday ~PURE JOY.... ~

1 Peter 1:8 (NLT)

⁸ You love him even though you have never seen him. Though you do not see him now, you trust him; and you rejoice with a glorious, inexpressible joy.

Iris from Grace Alone gave us the theme of "JOY" for this THANKFUL THURSDAY and made us reflect on the quote she heard from J.Piper..”Happiness is depended on our circumstances; joy is in our bones” She stated that " Pure Joy comes from God " I so agree with this!

When i vision God in relationship with me i can't get over HIS LOVE towards me towards His creation.......He thought of me ...when He send His son Jesus Christ to earth to make a way possible back to Him.......
He knew me since my mothers womb.....He knows me in and out wants the best from me.....His LOVE is an forgiving never giving up on me Love.......When i meditate and think about it i can't help and feel an Joy growing in the deepest deeps of my soul......It gives Strenght and power in every situation of my Life no matter i am on a mountain top or in a valley or walking on even ground.......HIS LOVE is always there...so pure JOY is always there......and without even knowing sometimes it is contagious...I was caught by THE PURE JOY OF GOD...His Love catched my soul i realized when....
I came across a quote from Mother Teresa who said it so right..." It is a net of Love by which you can catch souls!"
So let's spread the JOY that He put in us by His Love towards us and catching other souls for Him......

Thank You father for the PURE JOY i received from You this week : When i said "GOOD BYE TILL NEXT WEEK" to the kids when they departed for there week camp and trusted on Your protection of them.
For the strenght you gave me to be Joyful when i work with elderly with dementia in the nursing home.
For your healing of my body fighting an up-coming cold or flu or being around again in the "germfull invironment of the nursing home after 3 weeks of summerholiday.

Col 1:5-8
( MSG) ^5-8The Message is as true among you today as when you first heard it. It doesn't diminish or weaken over time. It's the same all over the world. The Message bears fruit and gets larger and stronger, just as it has in you. From the very first day you heard and recognized the truth of what God is doing, you've been hungry for more. It's as vigorous in you now as when you learned it from our friend and close associate Epaphras. He is one reliable worker for Christ! I could always depend on him. He's the one who told us how thoroughly love had been worked into your lives by the Spirit.

Thanks Giving on my birthday!

Well this morning i wanted to make a blogpost in honour of my birthday .
But my hubby snatched me out of the house for a surprise in our beauty saloon for a total beauty treatment!

I LOVED it and feel like "brand new" ready for a new year granted to me by the Lord!

My dayverse out of my Moraviandaybook blessed me immensely this morning.
It is Colossians 1:5
I looked it up in context in the Message:

Working in His Orchard

^3-5Our prayers for you are always spilling over into thanksgivings. We can't quit thanking God our Father and Jesus our Messiah for you! We keep getting reports on your steady faith in Christ, our Jesus, and the love you continuously extend to all Christians. The lines of purpose in your lives never grow slack, tightly tied as they are to your future in heaven, kept taut by hope.

^5-8The Message is as true among you today as when you first heard it. It doesn't diminish or weaken over time. It's the same all over the world. The Message bears fruit and gets larger and stronger, just as it has in you. From the very first day you heard and recognized the truth of what God is doing, you've been hungry for more. It's as vigorous in you now as when you learned it from our friend and close associate Epaphras. He is one reliable worker for Christ! I could always depend on him. He's the one who told us how thoroughly love had been worked into your lives by the Spirit.

I felt like the words where spoken to me today in this age of time! This is how i experience it in the year that is behind me......God has been so good to me since the day that i was born....I was blessed with his message early in my life and this vers says it all "It doesn't diminish overtime or weaken and it bears fruit and get larger and stronger.

Thank You Lord for my life and that i may bear fruit in Jesus Name Amen!

I love to let you enjoy some thing out of my birth year !

Weekly Memory vers ~ 1John 1:9 ~

July 27 through Aug 3

1 John 1:9
If we confess our sins,He is faithful and justand will forgive us our sinsand purify us from all unrighteousness.

This was our week memory verse. When i read it last week i remembered it clearly because it is a verse i struggled with and still it happens that i struggle with it.........

My struggle is to give-up ME ; when God's Spirit...The HOLY SPIRIT who came to live in me,when i choose to follow Jesus...opens my eyes to change...to give-up...

WHAT is it that i had and have to give -up of myself!?
PRIDE and
CONTROL !!

I must and had to learn to SURRENDER !!
Me surrender?? Make myself funerable ??
YES....before GOD .......at the feet of JESUS YOUR LORD! !!

You don't need to be strong ...and put a face-up before God....
That is what you learned from "small" the way the world learned you to protect yourself and face life struggles!!

YOU must give-up having/keeping/trying to have control.........
Give yourself and everything of yourself to God and SAY " THAT YOU THOUGHT TO KNOW EVERYTHING.BUT THAT YOU KNOW NOTHING "!!
CONFESS!!
AND HE IS FAITHFUL AND JUST AND WILL FORGIVE YOUR SINS!!
HE is your DAD who loves you immensely....You will experience a love you NEVER know before.....and it is ALWAYS there for you!!

Start LOVING JESUS more give your relationship with HIM priority........give -up everything what stands in the way of this relationship........
AND
HE WILL PURIFY YOU FROM ALL UNRIGHTEOUSNESS !!
You will CHANGE/TRANSFORM from your old self in a NEW-SELF the person God wanted you to be........
YOU will be STRONG IN THE LORD...and not your own strength !
You will boast about the Lord and not be prideful about your own accomplishments....
YOU WILL BE AND FEEL FREE.........!!
You will not carry your burdens anymore by yourself!!

Two video's i found one who made me sing this verse and memorize it in a playing way.....
and the other one pictured in a way my and i believe the struggle of a lot of Christians who are pressing -on pursuing to follow Jesus and be transformed!

Don't forget to head over to "The Power of Your Love" to read more about this verse and if you like to join memorizing next week verse.

SUPER SUNDAY ~ "God's transformation power......... ~

Romans 12:2 (King James Version)

²And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.

Romans 12:2 (New International Version)

²Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God's will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.

Romans 12:2 (New Living Translation)

² Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.

Transformation: How Does It Happen?

by Nancy Leigh DeMoss

"Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind" (Romans 12:2).

Recently I ran into a woman I had not seen for several weeks. I hardly recognized her. Her hair, usually blonde, had turned completely white. The transformation was dramatic; she looked like a different person. All it took was 40 minutes and some bleach!

If only spiritual transformation were that easy. Just read a book, see a counselor, attend a conference, make a fresh commitment, resolve to be different, shed a few tears at an altar, memorize a few verses ... and, presto, out comes a mature, godly Christian.

To the contrary, the experience of many believers looks like this:

Commit. Fail. Confess.

Re-commit. Fail again. Confess again.

Re-re-commit. Fail again. Give up.

After all the struggle and the effort, we tend to want a "quick fix" - a book, a conference, a counselor, an encounter, a miraculous deliverance, a program - something that will be effective, and preferably pain-free. We want God (or someone else) to do something to us for a once-for-all victory so that we won't have to keep wrestling with the same old issues.

In my own walk with God, I have discovered some helpful principles about how spiritual change takes place.

1. Deep, lasting spiritual change is a process. It rarely happens overnight. It involves training, testing and time. There are no shortcuts.

We hear of people being dramatically delivered from drug or alcohol addiction, and we may wonder, "Why doesn't God do that for me? Why do I have to struggle with this food addiction; with lust, worry, and fear; with an unbridled tongue?"

Occasionally God does grant instantaneous victory, but more often He leads us through a process that requires obedience, faith, discipline and time. God is committed to winning the hearts, developing the hearts and developing the character of His people.

2. Spiritual change requires desire. We need to ask ourselves: Do I really want to change, or am I content to remain as I am? How important is it to me to be like Jesus? What price am I willing to pay to be godly?

Deep within God's children is a desire to please Him. That desire is nurtured by prayer (acknowledging our dependence on Him) and by meditation on Christ, the object of our desire.

As I read the Scripture and gaze on the Lord Jesus, I long to be like Him - humble, holy, compassionate, surrendered to the will of God, sensitive to the promptings of the Spirit.

When our desire to be holy is greater than our willingness to stay where we are, we have taken a big step toward spiritual transformation.

3. Spiritual change flows out of an intimate relationship with Jesus. We want to please those we love, and we are grieved when we offend them. The more we love Jesus, the greater will be our motivation to obey Him and to make the choices that please Him.

The ultimate issue in life is what or whom we worship. The process of true change takes place as we are weaned from our love and worship of self, pleasure, and this world; and our hearts become wholly devoted to Christ.

4. Spiritual change requires discipline. I can remember as a college student sitting for hours on end in tiny, windowless practice rooms, playing the same piece of music again and again. I knew that I never would reach my goal - to make beautiful music - without that rigorous discipline.

Discipline for the purpose of godliness is not the same as self-effort. Rather, it means consciously cooperating with the Holy Spirit - yielding to Him so that He can conform us to the image of Christ.

The problem is, we want the outcome without the process. We want victory without the warfare.

Praying and hoping for spiritual change is futile if we sit glued to a television set or neglect the means that God has provided for our growth in grace. Bible study, meditation, worship, prayer, fasting, accountability and obedience are disciplines that produce a harvest of righteousness in our lives.

5. Spiritual change is brought about by the Holy Spirit, as we exercise faith and obedience. So which is it? Does God do the work, or do we? According to Scripture, the answer is "yes"; "Work out your salvation, . . . for it is God who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose" (Philippians 2:12-13).

True spiritual change is initiated and enabled by the indwelling Spirit of God; it is all of grace, which we receive as we persevere in humility, obedience and faith.

6. Spiritual change is possible (and assured) because of the new life we received when we were born again. According to God's Word, at the point of regeneration we became "a new creation; the old has gone, the new has come!" (2 Corinthians 5:17). For believers, holy living is not a matter of trying harder, but rather of walking in the reality of a supernatural change that already has taken place.

Sanctification is the process by which the change of God has wrought within us is worked out in our daily experience, as we "are being transformed into [Christ's] likeness" (2 Corinthians 3:18). It is a lifelong - and sometimes painful - process. But we have the confidence that one day the transformation will be complete, and "we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is" (1 John 3:2).

Well i think the message with all these "food of thought"came across on this last Super Sunday installed by our host Peggy from Amazing Grace Mazes,Messes and Miracles. I so enjoyed linking-up at her place every week.
Today i also linked-up with " Spiritual Sunday's" for the 1st time and think my postings on Sunday's will be linked at there place from now on.


I finalize my packed post with a video i could not resist to ad this video of a preaching of Pastor TD.Jakes.....I love the energy what comes acrosswhile he is preaching . It stirs me up ,it motivates ......and that is God's spirit it wants to bring the best out of us it wants to transform us...just like the same power what transforms the catapillar in a beautifull butterfly!
I pray that we will encounter an energetic and transforming week with our Lord Jesus Christ!

Jesus' Prayer for His Followers

^1-5 Jesus said these things. Then, raising his eyes in prayer, he said:
Father, it's time.
Display the bright splendor of your Son
So the Son in turn may show your bright splendor.
You put him in charge of everything human
So he might give real and eternal life to all in his charge.
And this is the real and eternal life:
That they know you,
The one and only true God,
And Jesus Christ, whom you sent.
I glorified you on earth
By completing down to the last detail
What you assigned me to do.
And now, Father, glorify me with your very own splendor,
The very splendor I had in your presence
Before there was a world.

^6-12I spelled out your character in detail
To the men and women you gave me.
They were yours in the first place;
Then you gave them to me,
And they have now done what you said.
They know now, beyond the shadow of a doubt,
That everything you gave me is firsthand from you,
For the message you gave me, I gave them;
And they took it, and were convinced
That I came from you.
They believed that you sent me.
I pray for them.
I'm not praying for the God-rejecting world
But for those you gave me,
For they are yours by right.
Everything mine is yours, and yours mine,
And my life is on display in them.
For I'm no longer going to be visible in the world;
They'll continue in the world
While I return to you.
Holy Father, guard them as they pursue this life
That you conferred as a gift through me,
So they can be one heart and mind
As we are one heart and mind.
As long as I was with them, I guarded them
In the pursuit of the life you gave through me;
I even posted a night watch.
And not one of them got away,
Except for the rebel bent on destruction
(the exception that proved the rule of Scripture).

^13-19Now I'm returning to you.
I'm saying these things in the world's hearing
So my people can experience
My joy completed in them.
I gave them your word;
The godless world hated them because of it,
Because they didn't join the world's ways,
Just as I didn't join the world's ways.
I'm not asking that you take them out of the world
But that you guard them from the Evil One.
They are no more defined by the world
Than I am defined by the world.
Make them holy—consecrated—with the truth;
Your word is consecrating truth.
In the same way that you gave me a mission in the world,
I give them a mission in the world.
I'm consecrating myself for their sakes
So they'll be truth-consecrated in their mission.

^20-23I'm praying not only for them
But also for those who will believe in me
Because of them and their witness about me.
The goal is for all of them to become one heart and mind—
Just as you, Father, are in me and I in you,
So they might be one heart and mind with us.
Then the world might believe that you, in fact, sent me.
The same glory you gave me, I gave them,
So they'll be as unified and together as we are—
I in them and you in me.
Then they'll be mature in this oneness,
And give the godless world evidence
That you've sent me and loved them
In the same way you've loved me.

^24-26Father, I want those you gave me
To be with me, right where I am,
So they can see my glory, the splendor you gave me,
Having loved me
Long before there ever was a world.
Righteous Father, the world has never known you,
But I have known you, and these disciples know
That you sent me on this mission.
I have made your very being known to them—
Who you are and what you do—
And continue to make it known,
So that your love for me
Might be in them
Exactly as I am in them.

The memorizing of this verse made me reflect on many things; my Life,my relationship with Christ....,What He endured for my sins....How He gave His ALL out of LOVE for humanity.......
My life is bought and paid by Christ.........He saved " humanity " me from dead...He showed us "THE WAY " to The Father ........Living with and for Him is heavens gain!
So the lyrics of this song is my pledge to My Savior King!

I make a vow
My life will always honor you
Whether I live or die

I belong to Him
He bore my sin
I owe this life to my saving King

Hallelujah, I am not my own
You are in control
Hallelujah

For me to live is christ
And to die is gain
No matter what price i pay
I choose to give this life away

Only by the cross I am saved

SOUL SECRETS of a frustrated mother ( TD JAKES )

This morning i shared out of my devotional bible; Holy Bible " WOMAN Thou Art Loosed " The writings in it of Pastor TD Jakes are short quotes or devotionals or sharing thoughts with The Lord called " Soul Secret ".To share them with you is a pleasure to me.

Lord, I am finally bringing this pain to You. I do not know what to do.Parenting is though! Forgive me for criticizing my parents. I never knew how difficult their job was. Now,all my ideas about children and parenting have shipwrecked. I'm sorting through the debris of my mistakes,looking for Your direction.
At times,I have acted more childish than the children.I have not been a witness behind closed doors. My temper and my attitudes have not reflected You.My lack of control and other shortcomings have come back to haunt me through my children,and i do not like it.
I know that You are the Master Parent. You have such patience and such wisdom with me. Help me to reflect those same graces as I raise my children. You are great at loving damaged children who often fail.Make me the kind of parent to my children that You are to me.
I am through trying to control things that are in Your hands. I repent of my worry and i trust You now to strengthen our relationship with each other and with You. Help me to appreciate the good things and good times we do have. I know that, in the end, things will work out. I claim the promise of the Scripture that says " all things work together for good " to those who love the Lord.Thank You for being my Daddy. I leave my troubles in the lap of Your love.
