people people people

I believe that we must love people as Jesus did and does....

but sometimes they make it so bloody hard dont they?
sometimes you just feel no matter what you do they will betray you, hurt you and ignore you...and its tough, its tough not to feel rejected and unworthy....especially when your friends make you feel that way....

and the solution? eyes.off.myself.
eyes.on.Jesus.
love.them.all.the.more.

phew...hard work but the only way........

now i have to go and do it i guess.
i need help!

God's heart

Gods heart must be breaking, breaking and in so much pain at the suffering of so many........

tonight i got just a little glimpse of what life is like for some people and it's truly dreadful. not awww isnt that awful dreadful but hellish dreadful, and actually lets do something about it...lets love people enough to at least try and change lives....there is NO excuse not to.....

we M.U.S.T. be moved into action, lets not waste the death of our Lord even for a second. People need the gospel and we have it. end of.

Justice must come for these ones who have no idea of how their life could be-deserves to be.

i feel wretched just thinking about it-let my pain lead me into passionate prayer to my God-the King and the hope for all.

why not?

Happy happy happy happy :)

well i do have a pretty mighty Sustainer.........

i think we can always choose to be happy, and because God is love His heart is for overflowing joy-we can always choose to tap into that....sometimes its the last thing we want to do because misery wallowing is fun, but actually God is good, He is faithful and good, so i am happy, happy happy happy x

i feel so hungry, a hunger only God will satisfy, why then do i seek sustenance in anything but sometimes? People must be so frustrating.........

Numero uno

This then is the beginning......

I created this blog because i love writing, and i love the idea of keeping a diary but i never manage to write in it past May...so maybe i will have more success with this.

I am reading some wonderful books at the moment which have really impacted me and my faith, 1) The practice of the presence of God and the Spiritual maxims by Brother Lawrence and 2) There is always enough by Rolland and Heidi Baker.

I guess im learning again that it is all about love- Jesus' unconditional salvatory love and our response-an overwhelming desire to give glory to the only One who deserves it. Everything we do should be in the flow of this.

Since when was it my timing anyway? i have been called to Africa for as long as i have known the Lord and i guess somewhere along the road because it was "my" calling i had lost sight of the fact that it is always about Him and through Him that we go anyway.....so for now i will wait, and pray and ask to burn with God's love and compassion for those so in need of it.

ramble ramble ramble...already i have probably used too many words to not say alot so i think I'll leave it there for now.....
