Count It All Joy

"Look unto Me..."

"Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else." Isa. 45:22

"Look unto me..." That's what God is teaching me today. Instead of looking in the circumstances, in waiting and waiting for the documents to arrive, I need to keep my focus on the Lord. He is in control of everything. All these worries, concerns, difficulties are known by God. I have to puth them aside and look to God...

What a blessing!

I praise God for a full day of blessing last Sunday, January 15. First, the message from the worship service, spoke to my heart and I used it as an intro to my devotions/seminar to the ladies that afternoon. Pastor Jim Harms spoke on the Parable of the Unjust steward, entitled "Living the Christian Life in the Present Tense. " Have I been a good steward in 2005? According to Pastor Jim, the unbleievers work harder than we who are saved. How true... Sometimes, we take for granted our spiritual position we have in Christ. Are we "playing catch up with Christ?" We need to be serious in our service to God. Invest more, try harder, work harder. Investing for eternity... making every day count for God! Isay, I need to give my very best for His glory! It's not too late. Let us redeem the time. Buy back every opportunity God has given us.

I thank the Lord for the privilege and opportunity to speak with the ladies. We had fun in the games, and fellowshipping with the Jersey City ladies. I had opportunities also getting to know some ladies, their situations, and trials. I pray that God will use me in encouraging and being encouraged with our ladies in Bergenfield. What a bleesin the day was! I praise God.

"So, teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom.

Count It All Joy

I thank the Lord so much for all the things He has done in 2005. I count it all joy... God has been faithful to me and my family! His grace is sufficient! I praise Him for another year and excited once more for many blessings and challenges in store for us this year 2006! And with this blog, (I don't know that there is such a place like this in the internet. I just happen to browse on it !), I can share God's wonderful blessings to me and my family and our ministry. This will serve as our prayer bulletin and missionary updates spot.
