He is our refuge

If you leave in my area then, you must have been up early due to the storms. The sound of thunder and lightening where so strong and loud. I woke up to the loud noise it caused waiting to see if my kids will hear them. Before long, both girls came rushing straight into our room and on our bed looking for refuge. We could notice the fear and fright on their faces. They rushed to us because they see us as their refuge. They know nothing will happen to them if we are around. They felt safe and went right back to sleep knowing daddy and mommy are next to them. I prayed that God should calm the storm and to keep us safe. All I could think of was how powerful is our God in Heaven. He created the storms and lightening also. What a powerful God he is. Just like my kids run to us, God wants us to run straight to him when afraid. He is waiting with open arms to embrace and comfort us through the storms of life. He should be our rescue not anyone else or an idol. If you say, “The Lord is my refug...

Our Struggle

For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. (Ephesians 6:12 NIV) I have come across people that are believers but are unwilling to get into the word. Also, I've had people asked me that you must be getting attacks from the devil. The reason is clear, people don't want to get into the word because trials will come their way. When ever you are on fire for The Lord our enemy is angry. Attacks will come from all angles trying to stop you. You will feel descouraged and want to give up. Spiritaul attacks is our struggle here on earth as followers of Christ. It is a spiritual battle which is the reason some may think you are hallucinating, when you tell them what you are going through.  Even in the days of Jesus people said he was out of his mind. " When his family heard about this, they went to take charge of him, for they s...

Only Christ can fill our vacuum!!

But what does it say? “The word is near you; it is in your mouth and in your heart,” that is, the message concerning faith that we proclaim: If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved. As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.” (Romans 10:8-11 NIV) The message: what is your salvation story? Have you made Christ The Lord of your life? Have you confessed that you are a sinner and asked for forgiveness from God. If not, take time today and invite Christ into your heart. Make him the center of your life. Ask God to fill you with the Holy Spirit which is the seal of our salvation and our helper. Let the Holy Spirit guide your heart and mind as you go about today and always.  Lately, I've talked to people whose souls are restles...

A Mother's Bond

The connection we have with our children  is very powerful. The bond can not be broken. It is a love like no other. A love that speaks from the heart with a very powerful intuition. God made us carry them in our bodies for almost 10 months. This pregnancy process is a bonding mystery. Feeling the baby move and it can actually respond when you talk to them. I remember my babies giving me kicks of assurance when I asked if they are ok in there. What a magical feeling it is. The bonding continuous as we hear the first cry that pierces our hearts, nursing them, waking up at night and going through days with very limited sleep. Stirring at them to see if we'll see a body part actuall grow instantly. All the smiles and crying only builds up a stronger bond etc. We get soo attached to them that even leaving them home with our husbands is scary. Yet, we have to trust God and pray that we meet them alive when we return. I realized that this mother child bond is the same way God wants us to ...
