And All will sing of Your Glory...

Image
And after all is said and done when i looked around on Saturday all I saw was God's spender and glory in what he created... How can we not see this?

I think it is because we live in a plastic world that was created by us... You might say but what are you talking about and i say look at the picture below....

I am wrong this photo doesn't do this Splendor of God justice....

The life God has created for us is beautiful..... Live a full Life....


David and Johnathan

Image
I have been reading Samuel in the Bible.

A couple of weeks back God has placed on my heart to read about the life of King David and I don't know why.... At first I left it, but then the request from God began to consume my thoughts... I had a thirst and nothing helped until I started to read started reading Samuel....

I learned so much and I don't want to upset any one so I will keep my revelations that God gave to me for myself.  I must state that the things that stood out was David's Loyalty to God and his willingness to forgive, Honoring of his word he gave to others and his Love for Johnathan...  God said that David was a man close to his own heart... I have never read much of the old testament and never had i had a desire to study any books in that part of the bible, but reading about David's life really made me see a side of God i did not know about....

Maybe God want me to be like David.... I Believe the most extraordinary thing was the fact that David always…

How desperate and How sad?

What a insanely crazy week and Thank God Michelle Mckinney Hammond came to visist us at our church...  She is a good friend of our Pastors.... Michelle is truly a Blessing to me when she gives us a message.  It was such a help this week and I thank God she had this message to share.  Now let me get to the bottom of this Blog... God gave her a gift to make us see things different... God Bless Michelle....

Today one of my friends called and spoke about the media targeting him about his life.... I got me thinking about the incredible message Michelle shared with us.  She said we should not be surprised by the world when they offend us.  We are Kingdom children and we will be targeted by those that don't know God.  Strangely enough this friend of mine wrote on the wall of my kitchen Psalm 91: the protection of the utmost High.  Just was a ah-ha moment...

God Clearly says that those that love and serve Him will be protected... So my question was why do they get away with this rubbish…

Setting a table....

Image
I had the great opportunity to set a table for a magazine and talk about how one can set a table elegant and and cost effective....

In South Africa we like to keep our family air looms hidden deep in cupboards waiting for the right occasion which never comes.... We then pass these gorgeous air looms to the next generation... I say take it out and use it... This Cheese holder with the mouse was from my Grandmother and is so gorgeous that it goes with my Pumpkin patch table I set for a beautiful lunch or dinner...  I used this mouse with  my Alessi salt and pepper set which is modern.... See we can mix the new with the old and create a gorgeous setting to entertain in...
 I decided against flowers and went with these gorgeous Yellow Bunnies from White August.  They just enhanced the theme I was working on...  I used cheap Hessian fabric to cut myself a table cloth and it made the up beautifully and be re-used.  I also used a pumpkin hollowed out as a soup bow in the middle of the tabl…

Kylie Minogue

It's Friday Night and I am sitting at home... The week was a long hard working one....

I felt like watching something Musical and poped in the Live DVD of Britney Spears and that was a mistake.... I have always been a fan but the live DVD was not at all what I expected... Disappointing....

I can always trust Kylie to make me feel good.  She is such a classy, incredibly sexy women.... She is truly a legend to me...  I decided that a concert by her is on my bucket list.... I Just love Kylie Minogue and believe me although the DVD of Showgirl is not a new release it is a MUST see.  She is just excellent in this concert.  The stage, lighting and music is incredible....

Well done to Kylie for being a world class Musician And if you don't have this DVD go and get it.....




Good Bye to Mr. Loss

Image
Lately it seems like I am always saying good bye to some one or something... This must be the worst month since my Grandmother past away 16 year ago.... I am always emotional in July since this is my birthday month....  I cry at weddings, funerals and airport... It is embarrassing...

I find myself in instant moments of silence thinking of my life and then I get so sad.... Loss is the worst thing that can ever happen to any one... I mean there are some animals that die because of losing their mate... Humans have this great thing called emotion and it can bring great ecstasy and intense moments of sadness...Unfortunately when we experience emotions like sadness through loss it is so intense we can barely stand it...

I can never decide if sudden loss or knowing there will be loss is worse.... I have experience both and I must say knowing there will be loss for me was better it gave me the opportunity to say goodbye...  But as we are human I know that we all see and feel different about …
