In God's timing we find our time...

Welcome to my new blog post -
In God's timing, we find our time! 

Lake Sentani, Jayapura, West Papua
August 2016

 I'm writing this on the bus on my way to work on this glorious September morning. Praise and glory to God!  
Sharing our stories connects us, and we need to connect. So much happens in our lives, and we find very little time to reflect and share these.  Recently, I was on a trip to West Papua with my church. It was an awesome experience. We had opportunities to pray and minister healing and restoration for those we came into contact with. I literally saw God's healing take place as we laid hands and prayed for people.   What an amazing God! He is loving, tender, gentle and comforting. God has so much to give through us. So, encourage yourself and praise God for what He can do through your ministry.

West Papua is a beautiful place. I was touched by the women and children I met. Everywhere I go, I find women are crying out for the touch of God. They need someone to tell them that God cares and loves them. The following scripture really ministered to me and encouraged me:
        "But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength.
         They will soar high on wings like eagles.
           They will run and not grow weary.
         They will walk and not faint." (Isaiah 40:31)


 I came away humbled and so refreshed... The tenderness of God touched me in a new and fresh way.  And yes, in God's timing, we find our time! 

 Let's pray:
Father, we thank you for your amazing love for this world.
Thank you for your perfect timing, we find our time to be in your hands and feet wherever we go in this world. In Jesus' Name, Amen.


Thank you for visiting, and please leave a comment to encourage this blog to continue.

Launch of Blog - "Treasures in Darkness"

Treasures in Darkness Today, I am launching my new blog - 'Treasures in Darkness." Praise God for technology!  God gives us the desires of our hearts. The blog is an open door of opportunities towards making a dream come true. Blogging is an opportunity to start writing! I feel like I own a million dollars.  God is exceedingly good!    " And I will give you treasures hidden in the darkness - secret riches. I will do this so you may know that I am the Lord God of Israel, the God who calls you by name'" (Isaiah 45:3). The world is full of treasures that are buried or hidden until it is discovered! When we face loss, pain and disappointment, God desires that we find the valuable lessons hidden in our times of affliction. It is all very well when our days are full of sunshine and the blessings of God are so evident. But the treasures in times of affliction are not easy to see. Our hearts must have eyes to seek Him in the darkness of our suffering - and...

It’s A New Season!

It’s A New Season - and  Moving Right Along... ”I worship you I worship You The reason I live is to worship You!” I thank God for my journey and for bringing me to a new milestone, a new era of my life, WOW!    Glory be to God!   I celebrated my 70th birthday a week ago with my family and it was a lovely beautiful time.     I thank God that I got to celebrate this milestone with the people I love the most; that Corvus 19 lock down happened while we’re all together as a family.    I’m ever so grateful to you Lord! And now, moving on to face this age thing “head on”.     The world talks a lot about 70 being the new 60, 50 being the new 40 and so on.    Whatever that mean, I think for me it is time to call a “spade a spade”. What does turning 70 mean for me?    Is it time to give up on living life like I used to?    Is it time to lose interest in the things that I have ...

The courage of love

Against the dark background of much despair, the message of Easter, of the resurrection brings to us a bright light of hope. It is a message about the courage of love that sets the Christian faith apart from all other beliefs. It is about a loving God who relentlessly pursues us (Ezekiel 34:12) despite the sin in our lives. During our reflection time at work this week – I was led to read the following scripture: Jesus said to [Martha] “I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in me will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in me will never die" (John 11:25-16). Sometimes we don’t think much about the daily acts of courage as we live out our Christian values. It takes courage to speak God's Word in places where you know there are unbelievers who are resistant to the message of he Gospel. I believe this is no time to be satisfied with the status quo in our lives. We should take every opportunity that come and turn them ...
