Thanks to God for an amazing 2007 filled with love, joy, faith, peace, hope and more joy..
2007 has been a really amazing year for me. it started tumultously with my life gone topsy turvy and finished with such joyous splendour!
jan 2007 saw the end of a 16 year relationship with the love of my life
i had a really difficult time adjusting when God made me surrender my first love by unveiling my eyes to lies and deceit, and drew me closer to Him, i survived the ordeal without emotional scratches only because He took away my despair, sorrow, depression and in place filled me up with such amazing peace & joy! helping me to see things through His word and helping me learn to follow His will
He has seen to having my broken relationships reconciled, wrongs forgiven, prayers answered
personal experiences of God's amazing love have left me humbly awed
pastor gilbert asked in church today:
have you ever been so deeply touched by God that you can only weep?
have you ever been so deeply touched by God that you have thought about giving all that you have to the ministry?
have you ever been so deeply touched by God that you want to share it with everybody you know one to one?
and my answer to that is Yes, Yes & Yes!
as i count my blessings in dec 2007, i know i have all i need in God
God's love is sooooo good.. i pray for everyone to be deeply touched by God's love and so abundantly filled with God's love that it overflows to people around them
i'm thankful to God for creating the opportunities to share His love and goodness with friends, family and even strangers whom i meet on the street
i'm thankful to God for sending His body (church, brothers and sisters) and little angels (God's precious children) to teach me, encourage me, strengthen me and affirm His love for me
i'm especially thankful to God for bringing my father, auntie and cousin to church on christmas day, touching my father and bringing him to church service on weekends following that first christmas day visit.. hallelujah!
i'm so thankful to God for bringing me to church early this year, filling me so fully, ever since, with His wonderful love again and again even though each time i had felt so undeserving due to guilt, shame, remorse or other reasons
i know i'm in the best Potter's hands and have no other wants
Thank God!
