The Sweetness of God

Welcome to my new blog-post
"The Sweetness of God"

"Pleasant words are as a honeycomb, Sweet to the soul, and health to the bones." Proverbs 16:24

God, you are all sweetness and I love you!  

 I love to worship God, to talk to him but there are many times I struggle to find the right words to express how I truly feel about him.  It's a constant struggle until I go to God's Word.  It is the best source that provides for my lack in expressing my worship to God.  The following Psalm of David is one of my favourite scriptures that aptly expresses how awesome God's love is:

 Psalm 36:5-9 (TLB):
5. Your steadfast love, O, Lord, is as great as all the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.
6. Your justice is as solid as God’s mountains. Your decisions are as full of wisdom as the oceans are with water. You are concerned for men and animals alike.
7. How precious is your constant love, O God! All humanity takes refuge in the shadow of your wings.
8. You feed them with blessings from your own table and let them drink from your rivers of delight.
9. For you are the Fountain of life; our light is from your light.  

  We love to hear pleasant words spoken to us or around us.  When fellowship is pleasant we enter into conversations that flow easily and smoothly as we invite and inspire one another to engage in conversations. When we are hungry and thirsty for God, we need His Word that teaches us how to worship Him and give back what he truly deserves!  Like the following scripture:

 Deuteronomy 32:3-4 (TLB):
3. I will proclaim the name of the Lord; how glorious is our God!

4. He is the Rock; his deeds are perfect.  Everything he does is just and fair. 
He is a faithful God who does no wrong;  how just and upright he is!" 
 Praise and glory to you God, "How sweet your words taste to me; they are sweeter than honey" (Psalm 119:103).  
Prayer:  Help us to read more of your Word Lord, to "taste and see that the Lord is good." O, the joys of those who take refuge in him! (Psalm 34:8)

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...

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 ...

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 ...
