My favorite song this week! ~ Link-up~

This week in my tuesday post i was drawn to seek and strive more to TURN MY EYES ON JESUS
That is the reason i choose out of my 'Selah playlist on my blog (above) the song with this title to link-up with Cindy from " I Owe It AllTo Him"  this weekend.


But in fact my blog is loaded with my favorite songs and playlists....I think you can stay for hours at "My Journey" and hear all sorts of Christian songs.
Have an great and blessed sunday everyone!

THANKFULL THURSDAY ~ My mind andThankful heart~


Sitting here still with an "sleepy head" but it is already noon........Me and the kids slept the morning away and "hubby" overslept also and customers where calling if the shop will be close today....
WHAT an energetic family isn't it..LOL....
So bringing me to making an list or reflecting on what i am thankful about this week or in general...
In general i am thankful for Life and the oppurtunities it brings.... ......Life can overwhelm you because of  all those "man-made" rules obligations........structures of society....
I always wonder during holidays or get-aways when we leave our homes behind and/or put our minds to relax and enjoy....that we start automaticaly feeling joy- and thankful!
When we are back home or duties call our Joy and Thankfullness wants to "zapp-away" so to say!
It is where we put our minds on!
When i put my  mind only on the "to-do's" and what goes around so to say i set myself up not to be Joyful and Thankful.......
If i put my mind ( start my day) to talk with God, thank Him for this new day..... pick-up my bible and than reflect on my "To -do's".....than I feel free my heart feels free to live Life ........


What am i "rambling" can you still follow my minds flow....?
So I am Thankful for my Life...........Yesterday if you missed it was an year added to it......so it is an "double thank You".......

Thankful that  God gave me an mind and the choice where i want to put it on........" That it will always be on Him and him alone!

I am thankful that He cut us of yesterday from all outside noises by letting rain fall heavenly and that our internet and phone connection died.......Not knowing He wanted our full attention as an family during dinner......He attracted our attention to look outside our living room window  to watch His drawing in the skies........To tell us first HE IS WITH US by flickering his powerful light! Than the drawing in the clouds of an heart with two faces........We looked at eachother and all four of us saw the same drawing.......Isn't it powerfull! When the drawing dis-appeared it started raining heavenly again only for some minutes..........."SHOWERS OF BLESSINGS" came to my mind again............We started singing this song and an favorite came to mind to sing "ABBA FATHER" It was my best and MOST valuable birthday present i ever got!! God openened my eyes to see messages in the skies and to share it as an family!
And i know all the 4 of us will keep this memory as one of His many treasures He will give us through our life.
HE IS WITH US>>>>>>HE LOVES US>>>>>>>>AND HE PICTURED ME AND MY HUSBAND IN THE SKIES!!


I am thankful for blogland with all the encouragement Joy and Love shared in it even blogs who stirrs-up to be creative and get new idea's to give more meaning to our days.


I am Thankful  having still my parents no matter we life with an 'ocean' between us


I am Thankful for stable weather conditions ( i am thinking of the worldnews pictures of disasters lately...)


There is so much to be thankful for ....We take so much for granted....I realized it when being for 2 weeks in Nigeria..........Let's go through our days with an thankful heart no matter our circumstances


Have an greatday!
This month, August, we are all meeting up with Laurie of Women Taking A Stand and in September we will share our thanks with Iris of Grace Alone

What does love look like in your home ? ~ BIRTHDAY august 4~







What does LOVE look like in your home?


This morning of my birthday started with reminizing way back with my husband
How we met.......
How God kept us together without knowing......
Amazing how 22 something years can go so fast!!
This morning before my husband left for work after an delicious  "French breakfast" made by him ...... (Fresh baked croissants with omelet ,jam and fresh orange juice) " THIS "  happenend i said to my "hubby"......LOL....
http://members.multimania.nl/evaensuus/valentijnheart_smile.gif
The kids slept out so i sneek- out ( on tip-toes) to the living room to blog my thoughts on my birthday.........
But before doing that i found emails from my online friends and family members with well wishes......( Thank You all! )



But my "heart smiled" brightly when reading the one of my parents.....
Early in the midnight they wrote: "We are writing this email....after "taking the challenge" how to come on your blog to follow you.We find it so special to read your "Fathersdaypost" on this your birthday. Our well wishes on this strange age of  44....... (19 years with us and 25 years far away from our warm home!) [ these are the words of your dad and he said i must write it just that way!....smiling.....] We wish you HEALTH, LOVE and PEACE in All of  YOUR HEARTS and HOME ! We will "toast" on your birthday....
Much kisses have an nice day and take good care of our grandkids and also of yourself and husband! Love mum & dad"
And they included two painted portrets by an renomated painter in Surinam "Erwin de Vries"

And just now " the silence" is broken my blessings from the Lord woke -up and are saying......
" HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM"!!
But i was surprised.........I had to "beg" for "pecks on my cheek" for the first time??!!
Has that to do with entering the "teen phase".........................

The phone is ringing that will happen a lot of time today.......
http://www.michigancriminaldefenselawyerblog.com/phone-illustration-ringing-off-the-hook.jpg

Will share it with you today in an personalized form  and also the verses i love out of the psalms with the numbers of my BIRTHDAY and YEAR!
Be blessed and have an awesome day with THE LORD
Bernice/Godsown
( for "dutch translation click on the psalm nr)


Psalm 44

A Psalm of the "The daughter of THE KING"
 1-3 I have  been hearing about this, God, all my live.
   My  fathers told me the stories
      their fathers told them,
   How single-handedly you weeded out the godless
      from the fields and planted us,
   How you sent those people packing
      but gave us a fresh start.
   We didn't fight for this land;
      we didn't work for it—it was a gift!
   You gave it, smiling as you gave it,
      delighting as you gave it.

 4-8 You're my King, O God—
      command victories for ME BERNICE

   With your help i will wipe out my enemies,
      in your name i will stomp them to dust.
   I don't trust in weapons;
      my sword won't save me

   But it's you, you who saved me from the enemy;
      you made those who hate me lose face.
   All day i parade God's praise—
      i thank you by name over and over.


 9-12 But now you've walked off and left me,
      you've disgraced me and won't fight for me.
   You made me turn tail and run;
      those who hate me have cleaned me out.
   You delivered me as sheep to the butcher,
      you scattered me to the four winds.
   You sold your people at a discount—
      you made nothing on the sale.

 13-16 You made people on the street,
      urchins, poke fun and call us names.
   You made us a joke among the godless,
      a cheap joke among the rabble.
   Every day I'm up against it,
      my nose rubbed in my shame—
   Gossip and ridicule fill the air,
      people out to get me crowd the street.

 17-19 All this came down on me,
      and i've done nothing to deserve it.

   I never betrayed your Covenant: my heart     

was never false, my feet never left your path.
   Do i deserve torture in a den of jackals?
      or lockup in a black hole?


 20-22 If i had forgotten to pray to my God
      or made fools of myself with store-bought gods,
   Wouldn't God have figured this out?
      I can't hide things from him.
   No, you decided to make us martyrs,
      lambs assigned for sacrifice each da
y
.

 23-26 Get up, God! Are you going to sleep all day?
      Wake up! Don't you care what happens to us?

   Why do you bury your face in the pillow?
      Why pretend things are just fine with me?
   And here i am—flat on my face in the dirt,
      held down with a boot on my neck.
   Get up and come to my rescue.
      If you love me so much, Help ME! 


Psalm 4

A David Psalm
 1 When I call, give me answers. God, take my side! Once, in a tight place, you gave me room;
   Now I'm in trouble again: grace me! hear me!

 2 You rabble—how long do I put up with your scorn BERNICE?
   How long will you lust after lies?
   How long will you live crazed by illusion?
 3 Look at this: look
   Who got picked by God!
   He listens the split second I call to him.


 4-5 Complain if you must, but don't lash out.
   Keep your mouth shut, and let your heart do the talking.
   Build your case before God and wait for his verdict.

 6-7 Why is everyone hungry for more? "More, more," they say.
   "More, more."
   I have God's more-than-enough,
   More joy in one ordinary day

 7-8 Than they get in all their shopping sprees.
   At day's end I'm ready for sound sleep,
   For you, God, have put my life back together. 


Psalm 8

A David Psalm
 1 God, brilliant Lord, yours is a household name.
 2 Nursing infants gurgle choruses about you;
      toddlers shout the songs
   That drown out enemy talk,
      and silence atheist babble.

 3-4 I look up at your macro-skies, dark and enormous,
      your handmade sky-jewelry,
   Moon and stars mounted in their settings.
      Then I look at my micro-self and wonder,
   Why do you bother with me BERNICE & MY FAMILY?
      Why take a second look our way?

 5-8 Yet we've so narrowly missed being gods,
      bright with Eden's dawn light.
   You put us in charge of your handcrafted world,
      repeated to us your Genesis-charge,
   Made us lords of sheep and cattle,
      even animals out in the wild,
   Birds flying and fish swimming,
      whales singing in the ocean deeps.

 9 God, brilliant Lord,
      your name echoes around the world. 


Psalm 19

A David Psalm
 1-2 God's glory is on tour in the skies, God-craft on exhibit across the horizon.
   Madame Day holds classes every morning,
      Professor Night lectures each evening.

 3-4 Their words aren't heard,
      their voices aren't recorded,
   But their silence fills the earth:
      unspoken truth is spoken everywhere.


 4-5 God makes a huge dome
      for the sun—a superdome!
   The morning sun's a new husband
      leaping from his honeymoon bed,
   The daybreaking sun an athlete
      racing to the tape.

 6 That's how God's Word vaults across the skies
      from sunrise to sunset,
   Melting ice, scorching deserts,
      warming hearts to faith.

 7-9 The revelation of God is whole
      and pulls our lives together.
   The signposts of God are clear
      and point out the right road.
   The life-maps of God are right,
      showing the way to joy.
   The directions of God are plain
      and easy on the eyes.
   God's reputation is twenty-four-carat gold,
      with a lifetime guarantee.

   The decisions of God are accurate
      down to the nth degree.

 10 God's Word is better than a diamond,
      better than a diamond set between emeralds.
   You'll like it better than strawberries in spring,
      better than red, ripe strawberries.

 11-14 There's more: God's Word warns us of danger
      and directs us to hidden treasure.
   Otherwise how will we find our way?
      Or know when we play the fool?
   Clean the slate, God, so we can start the day fresh!
      Keep me from stupid sins,
      from thinking I can take over your work;
   Then I can start this day sun-washed,
      scrubbed clean of the grime of sin.
   These are the words in my mouth;
      these are what I chew on and pray.
   Accept them when I place them
      on the morning altar,
   O God, my Altar-Rock,
      God, Priest-of-My-Altar. 


Psalm 66


    All together now—applause for God! Sing songs to the tune of his glory,
      set glory to the rhythms of his praise.
   Say of God, "We've never seen anything like him!"
      When your enemies see you in action,
      they slink off like scolded dogs.
   The whole earth falls to its knees—
      it worships you, sings to you,
      can't stop enjoying your name and fame.

 5-6 Take a good look at God's wonders—
      they'll take your breath away. 8-12 Bless our God, O peoples!
      Give him a thunderous welcome!
   Didn't he set us on the road to life?
      Didn't he keep us out of the ditch?

   He trained us first,
      passed us like silver through refining fires,
   Brought us into hardscrabble country,
      pushed us to our very limit,
   Road-tested us inside and out,
      took us to hell and back;
   Finally he brought us
      to this well-watered place.


 13-15 I'm bringing my prizes and presents to your house.
      I'm doing what I said I'd do,
   What I solemnly swore I'd do
      that day when I was in so much trouble:

   The choicest cuts of meat
      for the sacrificial meal;
   Even the fragrance
      of roasted lamb is like a meal!
   Or make it an ox
      garnished with goat meat!

 16-20 All believers, come here and listen,
      let me tell you what God did for me.
   I called out to him with my mouth,
      my tongue shaped the sounds of music.
   If I had been cozy with evil,
      the Lord would never have listened.
   But he most surely did listen,
      he came on the double when he heard my prayer.
   Blessed be God: he didn't turn a deaf ear,
      he stayed with me, loyal in his love.

Marriage Monday ~ Favorite foods of our husbands ~...........~


Romantic Food Faves
Oh! Give me something refreshing to eat—and quickly! Apricots, raisins—anything. I'm about to faint with love!
(Song of Solomon 2:5 MSG)
Today we must tell about the favorite foods of our husbands..I had to laugh about the vers E-mom from C h r y s a l i s 


Well i came an long way in preparing and knowing the fav foods of my husband
I remember the first time visit of my hubby in my appartment to have dinner together....
Now i understand his not so excited reaction about my dinner.....I remember slightly what i made....It was an oven dish with fish.....In comparison i know now with his "Nigerian cuisine" it was NOT spicy at all.......it was not fried..and looking very colourful.
I learned a lot about his taste and cooking a long those years but mostly i gave him "the honours" in our home to cook in the weekend and special occasions /celebrations....
But his favorite's are......
Fried Tilapia fish



Fried Rice

Side dish baked plantain

Moravian Daily texts ~ August 1~



It's an while again i posted my day verses overhere.
To know more about these devotional books you can press on the pictures.
Sunday, August 1


Tenth Sunday after Pentecost
Watchword for the Week -- Set your minds on things that are above, not
on things that are on earth. Colossians 3:2

Ecclesiastes 1:2,12-14; 2:18-23; Psalm 49:1-12
Colossians 3:1-11; Luke 12:13-21

There is no Rock like our God. 1 Samuel 2:2

We have this hope, a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, Jesus.
Hebrews 6:19-20

Loving God, life today has so many ups and downs, storms and squalls,
knowns and unknowns -- just getting out of bed can be a challenge. There
is no other rock or anchor that can offer us such stability, love,
forgiveness, grace, and acceptance than you. Thank you. Amen.

Friday link-up ~ Favorite/inspiring WORD...~

http://communities.zeelandnet.nl/data/suriname/upload/images/fayalobi.jpgFAJALOBI

http://www.thaicultureblogs.com/media/blogs/thailand/waikru22.jpghttp://farm4.static.flickr.com/3168/3099564383_1cf55fc7f7.jpg?v=0

The last days i am thinking about LOVE......

The Faya Lobi 
Flower
Faya Lobi or Faja Lobi is the best known flower from Suriname. It is called the flower of love, because the litteral translation is "Fire Love". Just like many other flowers, this flower is used by people to express their love to each other.  The flower appears in different colors. As far as I know there are red, yellow, orange and white Faya Lobi flowers. Of course many people have small companies to cultivate these flowers and in Suriname it is good business.
God's definition of love....Un-conditional Love...
Passionate Love
But i heard this word also in my own language LOBI.......
God's Love is like an FIRE......in our Life's........in Surinamees FAJA
So today my word to link-up with Cindy Adkins at " I Owe it All to Him"....is......
FAJALOBI

Psalm 119
49-56 Remember what you said to me, your servant—
      I hang on to these words for dear life!
   These words hold me up in bad times;
      yes, your promises rejuvenate me.
   The insolent ridicule me without mercy,
      but I don't budge from your revelation.
   I watch for your ancient landmark words,
      and know I'm on the right track.
   But when I see the wicked ignore your directions,
      I'm beside myself with anger.
   I set your instructions to music
      and sing them as I walk this pilgrim way.
   I meditate on your name all night, God,
      treasuring your revelation, O God.
   Still, I walk through a rain of derision
      because I live by your Word and counsel.
 57-64 Because you have satisfied me, God, I promise
      to do everything you say.
   I beg you from the bottom of my heart: smile,
      be gracious to me just as you promised.
   When I took a long, careful look at your ways,
      I got my feet back on the trail you blazed.
   I was up at once, didn't drag my feet,
      was quick to follow your orders.
   The wicked hemmed me in—there was no way out—
      but not for a minute did I forget your plan for me.
   I get up in the middle of the night to thank you;
      your decisions are so right, so true—I can't wait till morning!
   I'm a friend and companion of all who fear you,
      of those committed to living by your rules.
   Your love, God, fills the earth!
      Train me to live by your counsel. 

Please head on over to my friend Lynn’s blog Spiritually Unequal Marriage to link up with other Thankful Thursday participants.

WFW......." Rom 10: 14-15~.......and What does Love look like...........?










                                 ( Pictures out of One Year Bible Blog)

Romans 10:14-15 (New International Version)


(GOD’S WORD Translation)  14But how can people pray to him if they have not believed in him? How can they believe in him if they have not heard his message? How can they hear if no one tells the Good News? 15How can people tell the Good News if no one sends them? As Scripture says, “How beautiful are the feet of the messengers who announce the Good News.” 

(Young's Literal Translation)  14How then shall they call upon [him] in whom they did not believe? and how shall they believe [on him] of whom they did not hear? and how shall they hear apart from one preaching?15and how shall they preach, if they may not be sent? according as it hath been written, `How beautiful the feet of those proclaiming good tidings of peace, of those proclaiming good tidings of the good things!' 

(New Century Version)14 But before people can ask the Lord for help, they must believe in him; and before they can believe in him, they must hear about him; and for them to hear about the Lord, someone must tell them;15 and before someone can go and tell them, that person must be sent. It is written, "How beautiful is the person who comes to bring good news."

 Today is also

My Consolation

Emmaus
                     ( picture out of One Year Bible Blog)
My Consolation
Oh Jesus, come and walk with us and let us feel Thy very nearness. 
I walk with you. Oh! think, My children, not only to guide and comfort you and strengthen and uphold, but for solace and comfort for Myself. 
When a loving child is by you, is the nearness only that you may provide protection and help for that little one? 
Rather, too, that in that little child you may find joy and cheer and comfort in its simplicity, its Love, its trust. 
So, too, is it in your power to comfort and bring joy to My Heart.
And I will walk among you, and will be your God, and ye shall be my people Leviticus 26:12

Hearsts on fire ( Blog-hop July26-Jul 31)

Hearts on Fire (Celebrating You Jul 26-Jul 31)








(Hearts on Fire -- Painting by Sharon Cummings)
"Home ISWhere OneHeart Is" aka "One Heart" says on her blog
"A few of you have expressed to me that sometimes you wonder whether what you do here makes a difference; therefore, I thought it would be good for each of us to write a post sharing how blogging has made a difference in our life. I pray that some of us who are growing a bit weary may be encouraged by this"
 
So this "Blog Hop" is to encourage eachother to keep on making an difference in eachother lives
 
Indeed my sister "One Heart" is right to have choosen this picture because that is what happenend when we connect in "blogland" with eachother.....
When we read an blog....IT TOUCH OUR HEART
When an comment flows in IT TOUCH OUR HEART
When we write an comment, we REACH IN OUR HEARTS for words....... 
And an HEART THING STARTED between US.

At least THAT is what happenend with me since i started blogging this coming december 2 years ago.....

WE ARE PUTTING EACHOTHERS HEARTS ON FIRE!!

My experience is that when i am doubting or wondering or even thinking this blogging is taking my time to much........
That is when i go and surge in my heart and see who or what i fill it with........
I don't know if what i am saying makes sense but....my heart must be full first with THE ONE......
The keeper of My HEART JESUS........
And when our HEARTS get on FIRE it is HIM between us and stirring LOVE IN and BETWEEN US.....

In "My WALK and TALK" post last sunday He draws me to the focus on LOVE......and this morning before writing this post i came accross an verse and felt i must "Dot" it down because i believe that is the wish of OUR FATHER what must happen....in our life's in everything we do.........







Philippians 1:9-11 (The Message)

So this is my prayer: that your love will flourish and that you will not only love much but well.  Learn to love appropriately.  You need to use your head and test your feelings so that your love is sincere and intelligent, not sentimental gush.  Live a lover's life, circumspect and exemplary, a life Jesus will be proud of bountiful in fruits from the soul, making Jesus Christ attractive to all, getting everyone involved in the glory and praise of  God.
Friends i found in those 2 years many FRUITS FROM THE SOUL in your comments and writings on your blog!
And i thank God he lead me to blogland.
Thanks to all of you and let's link-up to this party( click on title of this post) to put eachothers "HEART on FIRE"
Blessings "GodsOwn" (Bernice)

My Walk and Talk ~ My week in pictures " Do not let "ME" drawning...."

THIS WEEK in PICTURES !!













Something like this psalm my prayer went since last thursday

Psalm 55

1 Listen to my prayer, O God,

       do not ignore my plea;  2 hear me and answer me.
       My thoughts trouble me and I am distraught
 3 at the voice of the enemy,
       at the stares of the wicked;
       for they bring down suffering upon me
       and revile me in their anger.


Was walking around with an headache what could only be put down with some Tylenol for an while.......
To me the only thing what could help was closing myself up from "the world" and take an long sleep.........this afternoon......

That is how i see what happened.....
In my deep sleep i saw no pictures only hearing an loud voice it sounded like my husband and said......
"WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU.........? Do you want to drawn " ME ".......You need  THE SPIRIT OF LOVE"!!
I was clearly awake......my head felt lighter...no cloud over my head and mood......I opened my bedroom...."back to the world"!
My kids and there dad where bussy in the house.....repairing some things..cleaning up....,preparing an BBQ.....My son came to me and said "daddy says we must do the house, because your birthday is up-coming....."
I said to my family i join in soon after taking an shower.....


I love to talk and reflect with the Lord under the shower....
Lord was it my husband talking to me in my dream...? I know he prays for me......
Maybe he prays for me to get more LOVE to conquer all what i have to deal with......??!!
Who am i DRAWNING??!!......My husband with my bad moods, moodiness.....lack of this or that???..........


No my dear....( or did the Lord say my princess,my queen my precious one...?)...
It's MY SPIRIT in you what is drawning....,what you are crushing....not giving way in you...because you give in doing what your FLESH wants to do......
You look at it and does not call an "halt " to it......


You need to see THE FRUITS of MY SPIRIT in your life......
Start focussing the coming time on the 1st one LOVE....2nd is JOY.....3th is PEACE and look the others up......... and search how this "fruit" of my spirit can grow in your life.......and come to " full bloom"........
To my memory came back an beautiful Journal i saw made by Cindy at " I Owe it All to Him"

QUOTE from LYSA TERKEUST!! (from " A MESS")
I'm convinced there's a reason the first four letters of Messiah spell mess. We need Him. Only the Messiah can take our mess and turn it into a untangled message of hope, forgiveness, and ultimately love.
