23.01.2022 Choose your hard. Marriage is hard, divorce is hard -choose your hard. Obesity is hard, being fit is hard -choose your hard.... Being in debt is hard, being financially disciplined is hard -choose your hard. Communicating is hard, not communicating is hard -choose your hard. Life won’t always be easy, you will always be dealing with some hard. You may not like the menu, but you still have choices. Choose wisely. ...And then remember that you can do all things through Christ who gives you strength! Then you will be thankful. When you are thankful, and grateful you find joy...and the joy of the Lord is your strength! Choose your hard, choose Jesus, be thankful, choose gratitude and find joy! Copy/pasted from a friend

23.01.2022 Thought of the Day! Whatever may be our situation, we have a Guide to direct our way; whatever our perplexities, we have a sure Counselor; whatever our sorrow, bereavement, or loneliness, we have a sympathizing Friend. If in our ignorance we make missteps, Christ does not leave us. Christ's Object Lessons, p. 173.

22.01.2022 Thought of the Day! Every word you speak is as a seed that will germinate and produce either good or bad fruit. - FLB 236

20.01.2022 Hello church family Please read pray and share - the more people praying for baby Imogen the better. Thank You

20.01.2022 Have Faith in God - continued. Keep fast hold on Jesus. Look up to the haven of rest and the home of the blest. Keep your soul in the love of God whatever may betide, and you will grow spiritually strong. Jesus is your loving Friend; He will take your hand and help you over every hard and trying place. A grateful, trustful, habitual recognition of God lies at the very foundation of all right conduct, all true character. You must never lose confidence in God. It were less sin...ful, less unreasonable, to forget every human friend you have in the world than to forget God. I know that you love God, and I know you will try to serve Him in all sincerity, in all fidelity, and no one will ever be able to make you afraid or ashamed to be known as a servant of the Most High God. May the Lord bless you is the prayer of (signed) Ellen G. White.Letter 22, September 19, 1886, to Dr. J. S. Gibbs, a physician at the Rural Health Retreat, St. Helena, California. See more

18.01.2022 What you need to understand is the true force of the will. This is the governing power in the nature of man, the power of decision, or of choice. Everything depends on the right action of the will. The power of choice God has given to men; it is theirs to exercise. You cannot change your heart, you cannot of yourself give to God its affections; but you can choose to serve Him. You can give Him your will; He will then work in you to will and to do according to His good pleasure. Thus your whole nature will be brought under the control of the Spirit of Christ; your affections will be centered upon Him, your thoughts will be in harmony with Him.Ellen G. White, Steps to Christ, p. 47.

16.01.2022 Hello church family around the world. Can you all please spread the word and get as many people as possible to pray for baby Imogen. The LORD hears our prayers

15.01.2022 Thought of the Day! There may be no ecstasy of feeling but there is an abiding peaceful trust. Every burden is light; for the yoke which Christ imposes is easy. - GW 411-415

14.01.2022 They brought balloons to a school. One was given to every student, who had to inflate it, write their name on it and throw it in the hallway. The professors the...n mixed all the balloons. The students were given 5 minutes to find their own balloon. Despite a hectic search, no one found their balloon. At that point the professors told the students to take the first balloon that they found and hand it to the person whose name was written on it. Within 5 minutes everyone had their own balloon. The professors said to the students: These ballons are like happiness. We will never find it if everyone is looking for their own. But if we care about other people's happiness... we'll find ours too."

13.01.2022 Thought of the Day! It is a part of God's plan to grant us, in answer to the prayer of faith, that which He would not bestow did we not thus ask. Prayer, p. 61.

13.01.2022 Thought of the Day! The simple prayers indited by the Holy Spirit will ascend through the gates ajar, the open door which Christ has declared: I have opened, and no man can shut. These prayers, mingled with the incense of the perfection of Christ, will ascend as fragrance to the Father, and answers will come. Prayer, p. 46-47

12.01.2022 Good morning resilient women! How is it October already????? This morning, I am sitting on my deck with my coffee & pondering this new month ahead & looking to God for some clear direction amongst the craziness of my life! I often struggle to sift through all that surrounds me to work out what God is calling me to do... I am easily distracted... kinda like a child at coles, so many things to look at and want haha BUT praise Jesus that I was able to find this beautiful last page to my devotional today!!!!!! I think I’ll read this everyday for the next little while to keep me motivated & focused! So read it, save it, add more highlights... do what you gotta do & may it be a blessing to you, just like it was to me!!! (Wise words from a fellow female!)

12.01.2022 Thought of the Day! The Lord is coming. The earth's history is soon to close. Are you prepared to meet the Judge of the earth? - YRP 189

10.01.2022 Have Faith in God The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? Psalm 118:6. Dear Brother: ... I know that you are often tempted and tried. I know that the Lord will not leave you to wrestle with these temptations alone. Only believe Jesus is your Helper, a very present help in time of trouble. Somehow today it seemed to me I must see you and bid you look up; yes, look up through the mist, through the clouds to the Sun of Righteousness. You must not be dep...ressed. It is the depressing discouragements that are sapping your life forces. You must be cheerful even though disappointed in men. Jesus understands; Jesus is true; Jesus is your Saviour. Only a little while of trial, a little moment of affliction, then an eternal weight of glory. I write to you as I would to my own sons. You are in the place where God would have you. I tell you, my brother, there is no mistake in this matter. I know what I am talking about. Be true to God, and you will do the work He has given you to do with fidelity. God lives and reigns. We have a living and a risen Saviour. He has a care for you.... He has never proved false; He has never deceived you. He will be your guide and deliverer in the most trying circumstances. He will be at your right hand. We are every moment girded with His power and surrounded by His presence as really as were the Israelites in the midst of the divided sea. The deepest and truest philosophy of life and faith is to bring ourselves into the most intimate relation with God. God is giving you an experience, and if you do not grieve too much and feel too keenly, you will have physical strength. But sorrow and dissension and untruthfulness is to you a living death. But you must in faith commit your case to God. Truth will triumph and you will triumph with it. (See next post for conclusion of letter)

08.01.2022 Thought of the Day! For in six days Jehovah made the heavens and the earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested on the seventh day - Exodus 20:11

05.01.2022 My husband can never put his clothes IN the dirty laundry basket. They’re always on the floor. And it makes me appreciate him even more. I saw this post awhile ago about how the men in our lives tend to never be able to put their clothes after work, into the laundry basket. How they’re always on the floor. When I first saw this, I agreed. I thought to myself oh my god THIS! It’s SO annoying! I even showed my husband the article saying why do you do this?! And that’s the w...ay I thought, until yesterday. My husband came home from work, played with our children a little, asked what was for dinner, if I needed anything, then went to take a shower. Ten minutes later I walk past the laundry basket, right where our washroom also is. And I see it. The thing that would usually make me yell through the shower door. The thing that has annoyed me for so long. But this time, I see something different. I notice the stains all over his work pants. The dirty socks stuffed into his destroyed work boots. The sweat filled t-shirt. The evidence of just how hard he works, is all over the clothes he left on the floor. So, I looked at those dirty clothes on the floor, that I once would have started a fight over, and I picked them up, put them in the basket, and walked away. When he got out of the shower, he noticed his dirty shoes and clothes were no longer there, and that I hadn’t said anything. And he thanked me. Which he had never done before, probably because I was too quick to start an argument about it. He said thank you for putting that away, I had a long day. And I said, I know. I could see it on your clothes. Sometimes the things that annoy us, can be looked at differently. I stopped looking at it as dirty clothes on the floor, and started looking at it as proof of just how hard my husband works to provide for us and our children. I am grateful he left his clothes on the floor that day. I saw him in a whole new light. It just took me awhile to see it.

03.01.2022 This is excellent info on how to speak to someone about your faith

03.01.2022 Thought of the Day! If we are Christ's, our sweetest thoughts will be of Him. We shall love to talk of Him; and as we speak to one another of His love, our hearts will be softened by divine influences. Beholding the beauty of His character, we shall be "changed into the same image from glory to glory. Desire of Ages, p. 83. E G WHITE

02.01.2022 The story of the beginning of the Seventh-day Adventist Church, free to view, a quality production well worth a watch or share :)

02.01.2022 Hello worldwide church family. Here is an update on baby Imogen. Please keep praying for the touch of the healing hand of Jesus for this precious lamb of God

01.01.2022 Hi church family, Here's an update on baby Imogen . . . please keep praying

01.01.2022 Thought of the Day! We shall often have to bow down and weep at the feet of Jesus because of our shortcomings and mistakes, but we are not to be discouraged. Even if we are overcome by the enemy, we are not cast off, not forsaken and rejected of God. Steps to Christ, p. 64.
