2011 Jan 05 - 2 Corinthians 4 - Shelley


Glad you are enjoying Perth Brenda is one of the real blessings from God. Enjoy every second of it!
 
2 Corinthians 4:7 'But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us.'
 
God is so amazing. His power no one can understand but when we live a life of deep faith in 2011 when we will see God working in different times of our lives. Every life has a season like it mentions in Ecclesiates 3:1-8 a time for everything under the sun. We will face good times, dry seasons, sad times and happiest moments but in all this I realise it's important to embrace God as the center of my life and to continue to rely on His power to work according to His grace and mercy. I read this morning in Psalms that at times we need to wait for God to act. His timing is not always our timing but what we learn that is so valuable in waiting is faith. I am naturally not a very patient person but at times I have learned when I wait for God to act He will always give us the best more than we ever imagined.
 
Daniel has interview today so please pray that if it's God's plan for him to get the job that it would be very clear.
 
Have a blessed day.
 
Love Shelley

2011 JAN 05 - Jeremiah 31 - Brenda


Hey everyone!!!
 
It's my 2nd day in perth, today it's a bit cooler as just have shower which brings the heat down a bit.  How are you everyone, miss you heaps!!!
 
Today I am reading Jeremiah 31:3
 
The Lord appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. 
 
This year is about the faith of the year, The Lord always appeared to me far away and sometimes I have doubts whether he's with me whenever touble comes, however as I promised to Lord that to know and let him be my Lord in my life 13 years ago and therefore I would try my best to love him and would continue my faithfulness to him wherever I am.  I would be explore the city and tour around today. Hv joined the local tour for tomorrow and will join another one in Pinacles on friday which is quite far away from the city where I stay and it is a dessert, soo looking forward to it.  Ok everyone enjoy your day and have a good fight everyday!!!
 
Love
Brenda
