Melbourne

We had the joy of haveing time out in Melbourne for a few days to see two of our children,.

Going away makes one forget about their problems and just chill out.

Time to ponder on life and how blessed I am, putting aside all health problems I have.

God continues to be good to me, and bless me, and in return I try to please him.

Thank you Lord ..

The whisper from God

I am convinced ,God is looking after me, through the last few months, my Lowe’s have more than my ups, but still some how I have managed to get on top of everything, with the Grace of God,and Am forever grateful to him.

I am really missing my friend Fr.Peter, he passed away 16 months ago, he would always pray with when we phoned always had a a wonderful sense of humour …but I know, he is looking after me from up above.

Life 💖

Be Gentle with each other

Life is short💖

Some Days

Some days, when life gets hard, you just have to be in the moment,and know it will get better.

Stay in silence ,trust in God will get you through it,and believe, things will improve,but don’t give up,don’t drop your bundle , just keep trusting ,praying, with out our faith where would we be.

It only by Faith do we get through

Prayer Donate to Today Devotional sep today cover-281471-edited Preparing to Pray By Peter Hoytema, Sunday, September 2, 2018 12:00 AM Scripture Reading: Revelation 3:14-22 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in. . . . Revelation 3:20 Here is the amazing reality of prayer: It exists because God wants to have a relationship with you. Prayer begins with God moving your heart to seek his heart. We don’t initiate prayer; God does. This means that our prayers are always responses to God’s promptings. The scene in today’s Bible reading portrays this fact beautifully. By knocking on the door to our hearts, the Lord invites us to enjoy a deep, lasting friendship with him. We would never have known that Jesus was at our doorstep without his knock­ing at the door. The fact that prayer is a response to God’s initiatives is reassuring. But this should also motivate us, when possible, to spend time preparing to pray before actually doing it. It need not be long, but some recognition of God’s grace, the ground of all prayer, is a good way to begin. Before we speak, we should listen to the voice that calls to us. Before knocking on God’s door, we should hear God knocking on ours. When we prepare to pray, we gratefully acknowledge that what we are about to do has originated in the heart of God. So before you pray, bow before its mystery. Savor the Lord’s grace and love. Then open the door. Lord God, how often I rush into prayer without realizing what an incredible gift it is. Slow me down, Lord. Make me aware of your grace and love as I come to you in prayer. Amen.
