H.E.L.P.

Everyday in life I have come to discover that humanity was not made to be self reliant but to be interdependent. We all need HELP somewhere along the journey of life. Help comes in many shapes, sizes or forms. It can be physical or verbal; emotional or mental; spiritual or menial. As I thought about what kind of help do I give and need in life I came to realise that the word HELP was an acronym.

     H: Healing- Help will always provide comfort that is a healing balm in some fashion or other.
   E: Encouraging- Help will always lift one from one place to a higher plane or dimension in life.
 L: Life- Help is a life saver. Ask the person who asked for directions when lost and you will discover that the help given was a life saver.
     P: Personal- The best we help we can give is personal. Paying personal attention to another person's challenge pays dividend. 

Let it be said of each one of us that we are a helpful people. I will close with a big thank you to God and all those who have helped me along in life. I realise that I wouldn't be where I am today without your help. Thank you to all who have made my life a better experience despite my flaws or failings in life. May the greatest Helper of all time, help you consistently, causing you to be surrounded by helpers whenever you need help. Thank you Lord for all the help and the helpers you have sent and will send in the future.

Now is....

Everyday I seek to share something that I have learnt through the daily reading. I make a choice to discipline myself not to write too much as we inundated with a lot of reading material. Feel free to add comments because that way we share and thus encourage one another to grow into the fullness of Christ. Today I am amazed at the fact that God will always remember His covenant and fulfill the promise. I want to list five words in the order they appear in one scripture that showed God is at work in our lives. Remembered : My God will never forget me. To be delayed is not to be denied as God will surely remember. God spoke and said to Sarah that He would return at the appointed time; at the right season!!! I do believe that we are in a season where we will see God begin to act on the promises that seem forgotten. Or better put in another way there is a resurrection of seemingly forgotten prophecies that is about to take place. Dry bones are beginning to take shape. Listened : No longer ...

Blessing or ....

To live well is one thing we all desire. I have never met anyone who did not want to live well. By living well for some people it means helping others. For others it means having a successful business. Yet for others it means travelling the world. I have discovered that it is not money that empowers but the blessing of God that empowers. Money is simply one of the many ways that the effects of the blessing may show up. Many times today in society we confuse money with being blessed yet people like Mother Teresa did not flaunt money but her life still is blessing many people round the world. The book of Deuteronomy has challenged me to desire to be blessed. Anyone who has walked with the blessing of God in their live has seen doors open that are a struggle for others. Yesterday I wrote about obedience. What obedience opens our lives to is the operation of the blessing. By choosing to obey the Word we are choosing to open our lives to be blessed. The purpose of being blessed is not self ...

Absalom's Treachery

Day 91 Reading: 2 Sam. 14:1 - 2 Sam. 15:37 One of life's most painful lessons is the treachery of human beings. When family or friends hurt you and leave you grieving the pain is not the same as when someone out on the street does something wrong. The pain goes deeper and it's easy to become bitter. Absalom had fled from Israel knowing that he was a wanted man for the murder and revenge on Ammon his step-brother. Joab arranged for a wise woman to go see David and get him to forgive Absalom. The wise woman made David realise that he was not setting a godly example by exiling Absalom. The wise woman made David understand that God will not banish anyone but he will seek the person out. God will do everything in His power to restore the banished person. The wise woman was asking David not to forget the grace of God that enables one to enjoy forgiveness. David gets Absalom brought back to Jerusalem however for 2 years he didn't see him. Now, this was worse than ...
