Expanding Horizons

I am writing this blog right after the previous one which might have seemed so desperate...
It was....But I am so thankful to God for He gave me 10 times of what I asked.....I dedicate this poem to all those brothers and sister's who have blessed me by their prayers,words, encouragements,scoldings[;)] ,love and care..........Thankyou Jesus for I love you so.....


I hadn't realized how much it meant
To know that someone cares to pray
To uphold me when i'm gray,
With timely encouragments and those frowns
I thank you Lord,today for those
Who came my way just like a rose.
There were petals but with the thorns,
But all were meant to make unlike those with horns..
Horns of pride,and of scorn.
To be transformed into a little like You.
If you who's reading this lil' rhyme,
Was in any way a part of my making,
Into the Father's mould since my awakening...
I thank you from the bottom of my heart,
I'll never ever forget how I did start.
My life had to end before it began,
But my Jesus had another plan..
I'm honoured you are part of my space
As you join me in this heavenly race...

Words are not enough but only in Heaven all of you dear people will know how much your love has lifted me......Thankyou once again

There was a time last week when some situation broke my heart.....I had to say goodbye to some of my dearest brother's and sister's in the Lord...Oh,Lord only you understand my pain....but I won't complain because you have given me so much in return..
This poem that I wrote was that I wrote in despair and much sorrow but it is my faith and strong belief that the Lord will restore Jerusalem.....The breaches will be repaired...Yes,Lord...do as you will.Amen
Have the heart's become cold.
Has ambition made em' bold.
Prejudice has made brother's hate.
In this world all this is true.
But what do you do when the Church wants to mate,
With the fallen systems of this heath.
Oh such pain it does give my heart.
When whom I thought was family does sham,
Sending by semaphore to the ruler of this world,
Giving the serpent the last laugh.
Oh what have we come to,my dear pilgrims in this Christian walk,
We have missed the road that was narrow
slipped onto another path slightly broader,
The time has come to hasten
To our hassock and cry to the Lord..
So that He'll save us before the devil can harry,
And turn the Holy Bride of Christ into a harlot..
Oh may this never happen....
When oh bretheren,will you hearken????

God help us all to hear your voice...this is my only plea....

I was feeling very low last night....was crying out to God about my repeated spiritual failures and stupid choices that I make impulsively and hurt others in the process...So all my sadness I vent out into this poem I wrote....The Lord really heard m cry and comforted me in a way I have never experienced before....Love u Jesus........

My life goes like the mountain
Up and down,more of down like the fountain
Hitting rock bottom much too often
Deject's me,my heart it does sadden
Always expecting something to happen,
When something else always does dampen
Leaving me to my tears to lighten
Oh,weary I am to even think of the more heartaches to happen.
But the Lord is still looking and waitin..
Holding the end of the rope of my life,His hands never achin'
He let the rope a lil' slack,my freedom not curbin'
With each heartbreak tellin' that I'll be needin'
My precious Jesus even when life'll be endin'....

This is the story of my life..Praise Jesus for He loves me so....I know that I CANNOT do ANYTHING WITHOUT HIM....Oh,Lord Jesus please become my everything....Amen

The New year certainly began with a bang...It was different sort of bang for our family though..
A miracle happened on the 1st of Jan, the whole roof of our bathroom just fell down...smashing the westeren toilet seat into pieces....It would have been instant death had anyone been there...My sister was just about to enter but was distracted for 5 mins..Praise God..He is so faithful..protecting us n keeping us...Whatever the devil tries He CANNOT SHAKE OUR FAITH....The Lord is indeed showing us through all of this that in this year He is going to be our Protector from the snares of the wicked one and our Provider for all our needs..Amen

Bible:
I waited patiently for the LORD;
And He inclined to me and heard my cry.
He brought me up out of the pit of destruction, out of the miry clay,
And He set my feet upon a rock
making my footsteps firm.

He put a new song in my mouth,
a song of praise to our God;
Many will see and fear
And will trust in the LORD.

How blessed is the man who has
made the LORD his trust,
And has not turned to the proud,
nor to those who lapse into falsehood.

Psalm 40:1-4 NASB

Thomas Hauker, a bright, well-favored, good-looking young gentleman, would not deny his personal relationship with Christ। For this he was sentenced to die at the stake.


Days before his execution, Thomas’s friends came to his English prison cell। One said, “I’ve heard that God gives a special grace to those who die in the fire that enables them to bear the flames. For your sake, that I might be able to bear this cruelty to you, can you give us some sign of it? Without knowing this, I don’t believe I can bear that day.” Thomas thought for a moment. “If the rage of pain can be tolerated, before I die I will lift up my hands to heaven as an indication.” On the day of execution, the crowd was abuzz with Thomas’s promise. As he was chained to the stake, he spoke quietly and with great grace to the men who laid the wood. Then he closed his eyes and the fire was kindled. Thomas continued to preach to those around him, but soon, for the roar of the flames, he could not. All were sure he had died. Suddenly, his hands rose above his head to his God and, with praise and thanksgiving, clapped together three times. A shout arose in the crowd, and Thomas sank into the fire and gave up his spirit.



How easily we get frustrated and give up in the mid-way…Surely the lives of such believer’s as Thomas Hauker ought to be a challenge to us.Oh, Lord...You know what a state I am in…I give up so easily and let the enemy take advantage and discourage me..
Help me never to try things in my own strength. I need you desperately Lord always..
I know You were still holding my hand even when I let go….Oh what a wonderful Savior You are!! Amen..
