Walking away can be the hardest thing to do, but it might be the best thing to save yourself from a lot of pain....
When we get to comfortable in our circumstances we can block change that might help us move forward....
Step out and Live, Love and Grow....

Long Lonely Road ....

Image
The road we call life can be hard and lonely and for the longest time I have been feeling lonely. I have been on this road for many months.... Hoping in vain for something that can never happen... His heart belonged to some one else.... I did not want to see the facts but rather closed my eyes and stayed blind in the darkness....
Nix, Tannie Linda, Carien and Aliza has been sharing there stories of traveling this road. They told me to be scared will keep me in this dark room... I have to stand up and look for this light switch....
The warning signs was there but I just did not want to see it... I guess it is one my flaws: always trying to see the best in every person...
Now it my time to recover and start to live again... Pain, bitterness and anger can cripple you so bad that you feel like you are worth nothing.... WE are not worth nothing because in God's eyes we are priceless....

Don't be afraid... Have faith friends... Have faith when the storms come.... they will die away and God will be our captain... he will steer us to the calm seas again.... The Darkness will try destroy us.... But... EK SAL NIE BANG WEES NIE.....



Bitterness: the dangerous Killer

Image
Friends there has been a silent Killer in my spirit.... It has been causing me to be an empty shell.... It is a slow killer that eats you up from the inside till its too late....
I have been fighting this killer for the last year and every time I think i have defeated it it comes back. Now Tannie Linda has always reminded me we must act on things... emotions can cause great damage.... "its all d act and a decision and it is harder than you think...." (Linda de Jager)
The Killer I am talking about is Bitterness. Its been eating at my being. I am so tired of fighting it off... Then on Sunday the 10th of July 2011 I went to the message that opened my eyes yet again at how dangerous this emotion can be.... How when it comes back we need to get up and punch it i the stomach so it goes back down....
Pastor Trevor Colemann spoke on Bitterness that Sunday and how to break the chains it has on you... It felt like he was speaking just to me... He said there is 4 causes of Bitternes…

Truth

Image
Truth should be a core characteristic of all of us...
Lies always causes problems... Once you tell one you always have to tell another to cover the other one...
On the road called life I realized that being truthful and true to yourself you can change lives. Don't be two faced.... Rather be honest and a person true to your word...
For it is better to know the truth than to live with a life filled with lies. Lies never has a happy ending....
Pastor Andre Olivier of the Rivers Church says "Many problems in relationships is because of the lack of truth..." So why do so many people feel the need to lie.
The truth will set you free....

Storms

Image
Storms are scary and uprooting things..... and when we experience them in our lives they can throw us completely of balance.... They can overwhelm us....
We need to be rooted in the Lord and have faith that this to shall pass....We must see that this too is just a test to make us stronger....
We must have a good support system to keep us strong and going.... 2011 has been a hard year for many people I know and love...
Friends I know this path in 2011 was hard and we feel like why is this happening to us, but i promise this will pass and things will work out....
All storms die down at some stage and the sun will shine again....
