At the end of this Thursday and before settling down to rest and have God dreams I thought I would do a few shots of some things I love. Like shoes.

Thursday chatter.

Think on these things that are good, pleasing and acceptable before God.

Wonderful Wednesday

What a great day Wednesday can be. It is smack bang in the middle of the week.
Whether the week has been good or bad Wednesday seems to be the day to catch your breath and even start again on the other foot.

Isaiah 9v6  says our God is WONDERFUL now that a reason to celebrate.

I totally love this piece in Isaiah 9 He is Wonderful and He is also Everlasting Father and The Prince of Peace.

So when you feel stressed out you can call on His peace.

I also love that He is Everlasting Father....Do you get it EVERLASTING.....never a day or moment when He isnt Father to us. Thats totally awesome. He doesnt reject us, forsake us or abandon us. He speaks words of love and encouragement over us.

Jeremiah 29v11 says For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.

What a wonderful, kind, consistent, everlasting Father.

Hope your Wednesday has been "Wonderful Wednesday" because God is wonderful.

Rest well tonight in the love of the Father.

Feel free to leave a comment.

Terrific Tuesday

Tuesday is one day away from the beginning of the week and one day before the middle of the week so it doesnt always seem to be a high priority day. I call it Terrific Tuesday.

We can choose to make any day of the week a good day or a bad, boring day. It is hinged on attitude.

I think a bad attitude can make a beautiful person look ugly. Grace, kindness, love and beauty start on the inside and radiates  from a heart of gratitude. Terrific Tuesday gives us oppertunity to be aware and mindful of how terrific it is that Jesus died for us so we
may have life and life in abundance.

Terrific Tuesday gives us oppertunity to know everything is going turn out alright.

God is our Father and He is everlasting Father which means He never tires if being our Father and He will never abandon us or give up on us, or disown us EVER.....

You may have had a number of challenges today, dont fret, be calm and know that God will step in and be Father in every situation.

Call out to Him, tell Him the whole story good, bad and ugly then get quiet and listen to His Fatherly response. He will heal you,hold you, speak to you and walk with you on this Terrific Tuesday. The day is not over yet!
He who is faithful will help you, He says move over son/daughter let me show you the way.

He makes ALL things beautiful in His time. He is not a hard task master He is a loving Father and He is so proud of you.

Rejoice and be glad this Terrific Tuesday.

I pray that you accept Dads embrace and that your heart will rejoice and be glad.

Till next time know you are of  great value in God.

Blessings
Rose.

Visit to Christchurch New Zealand.

Hello everyone.

I do apologize for not writting as often as I should and hope to get better at it.

Once again I cant believe how fast this year is passing us. it was January 2012 just the other day and now we are about to celebrate Easter/Passover.

I thought you would like to hear some feedback from my trip to Christchurch New Zealalnd.

What a blessing to get on that airoplane and head off on a 31hr flight to the otherside of the world. I settled down into my seat with a comfy pillow and my book for the long haul to Dubai and had a 3 hr wait before boarding again which allowed me to walk through the glitzy Dubai airport duty free and test the perfumes.

Smelling like a perfumery I then settled down for the next leg of the journey to Bangkok and then onto Sydney before the last leg to Christchurch.

My hosts were graciously waiting for me as I headed through the double glass doors with my trolley, and as we drove from the airport to their home they began to show me where there were once buildings, shops and schools that were destroyed by the earthquakes.  I didnt really have any frame of reference as I had not been to Christchurch before.

As the days unfolded I began to see the bigger picture and could appreciate the trauma and devestation of the lives lost and the people injured as whole office blocks in the city had come down and shopping centres and cathedrals and homes were destroyed. Family businesses were gone and the centre of the city was fenced off as a red zone, no go area.

Then the story started to unfold.... the September 2010 eathquake caused huge damage and the February 2011 earthquake followed and as Japan had their huge earthquake and tsunami the focus obviously moved to Japan and the tv coverage was centred on the nuclear reactors and Christchurch went off the map.

My invitation to Christchurch was through Every Nation Church which is pastored by Ps Bernhard + Colleen Wewege. I loved every minute that I was with this church. Such stunning people who love God and are building authentic church community.

Everyone of the people I met added such value to my visit and after 12 days in Christchurch my heart was won over.The sound of various birds, walks on the beach, eating meals and sharing stories, the beautiful green  countryside and the hope of people rebuilding their lives engraved such a message of love and life in my heart. I will be drawn back time and again to beautiful Christchurch with a mixture of people from different backgrounds woven together through trauma and celebration into a tapestry under the hand of God.

Thank you to everyone of you who prayed for me and those who provided financially and a friend who paid for my airticket and  of course my darling husband Lionel who without hesitation released me to go and met me on return at Cape Town International with a arm full of roses and gifts. I am always welcomed home by my husband like a celebrity.

Do remember to pray for Christchurch on the beautiful south island of New Zealand.
May this Easter be a time of encountering Jesus in a new and fresh way as we celebrate His sacrificial gift of eternal life.

Blessings

Rose.

The Good days of God.

Hello everyone,. How are you in this day and time? Are you waiting or are you moving forward into the new season of our God.

These are the good days of our God. These days are the perfect days for revival. When al lgoes well beware that we dont become lax and fall asleep in our false comfortable chair.

God wants us to fulfill His purposes and not our small plan of existence. God has never called us to a self help programme. He has called us to manage His call and kingdom. You will accomplish much as you manage what God has given you rather than try and own what you hoard up for yourself. Hoarding up for  yourself is when we are saying, we can manage on our own. God wants to bless and prosper us for the purpose of His kingdom and his good days in our life.

God will not be mocked and He will not let His children stand naked or ashamed. Do not measure your exploits for God by the earthly measurement of recession.
Turn your ear to Heaven, listen to the dirrective of God and walk in obedience. Money and possesions are not the object... seeking Gods kingdom and His rightiousness is the focus and then all these things shall be added unto you.

So this is the good day of the Lord. God is good and His ways are good ways.

So make sure your heart tank is filled with hope and expectation that you will walk in the ways of God and see the Lord move mightly in the day of his power.

When darkness is on the earth and deep darkness on the people God will arise.  Come into our lives in Power Lord....... we declare this is a good day and we work while it is yet day.
We celebrate You Lord. we want clean hands and pure hearts and trust you all the days of our lives.

Be strong and courageous, stand firm in God and walk in the Good days of your God. dont let fear or failure consume you. Place your full trust in God. He holds you safely in His hand and youre in His good day.. Praise God.

till next time

love and care as we journey with God together

Rose
