Talk Tuesday - Trust Him and Hold on

How has your year begun? Does the road seem tough. Have you gotten bad news in the last few weeks. God is in control. You may wonder how are you going to make it through this. You will because God is in control. I don't have any magic words that will make everything better but I have a Word from the Lord.

Proverbs 3:5-8

Trust in the LORD with all your heart
and lean not on your own understanding;
in all your ways submit to him,
and he will make your paths straight.

Do not be wise in your own eyes;
fear the LORD and shun evil.
This will bring health to your body
and nourishment to your bones.

Trust and Obey there is no other way. Trust Him. He is faithful.

Talk Tuesday- The Flame of First Love

"Though you have not seen him, you love Him; and even though you do not see Him now, you believe in Him and are filled with an inexpressible and glorious joy, for you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls." 1 Peter 1:8-9

I remember when I first became a committed Christian, I said a simple prayer of submission and acknowledgement. I asked Jesus Christ to come into my heart, surrendered the reigns of control to Him, acknowledging the power of His death and resurrection over my life. It was a glorious, glorious time! I said the simplest prayer, at the side of my bed, all alone in the darkness of my bedroom in June 1996. The next day, I woke up to a fountain of living water welling up inside of me, bubbling over. I finally had a peace and purpose that extended far beyond my selfish limitations. That Jesus would die for a sinner like me, and grant me such awesome joy, was truly overwhelming! Everywhere I went, I desired to share this free gift with others. I was 24 yrs. old when this all took place.

As the years rolled by, life began to crowd my fervour. I never lost it, but at times it ebbed and peaked. Five years later, I was engaged to be married to a godly and wonderful man. I was happily going about my preparations when the Word of the Lord jumped out from the pages of the Bible, stirring my heart in places I didn't know needed reawakening.

"...you have left your first love. Remember therefore from where you have fallen: repent and do the first works..." Revelations 2:4

What was your experience like when you first came to know the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour? Have you ever received the wake up call before? Have you ever become so engrossed in your own plans that you began to neglect your first love? Apathy is subtle and unsettling. As I was admonished by the Holy Spirit, I began to think of the things I did at first. Do you remember what the passion of your first love looked like? Does it look the same today? 2011 is a year I would like to see the Flame of My First Love be fanned into a blazing into a light for His glory.

Talk Tuesday - God Chasers

What are you chasing after this year? A new job? A new house? A husband or a wife? If you want to chase after something, how about chasing after God? This year about 17 of us are going to do just that. We have taken up the challenge of reading the Bible in one year. The goal is not only to read the Bible in one year, but to really draw close to God. We have added a new section called 'Bible Talk' which is posted every weekend. Listed are the scripture readings for each week. As you read your Bible, you can click on the 'Bible Talk' link at the top of the website to get to the latest post. You can add what God has revealed to you from the daily passage. Feel free to post everyday or once a week. If you have questions or you want to explore biblical topics pertaining to the readings, this is the forum to do it. The discussion has already started, so come and check it out!

At the beginning of a new year most people look back at the last year and hope that the new year will be better. The only thing that I can guarantee is that if you seek God with all your heart you will find Him. That is a great place to start. So if you have not joined us as yet, don't be afraid, together we can do it.


"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you. 8 For everyone who asks receives; the one who seeks finds; and to the one who knocks, the door will be opened." Matthew 7:7-8


"Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near." Isaiah 55:6
