Dark days!

         

Sometimes we think the Lord will never bless us. We have lost hope, have given up, are stuck in a rut and can't or won't move forward and given up even trying. Some of us give up on our relationships, give up trying to make things right, give up on having a better life. 

We all have dark days, days when we just can't seem to get anything right, we all suffer from broken hearts, loss, go through some really difficult times in our lives but it's important to struggle on and fight, to never crumble but to be strong and remain in christ. There is always a light at the end of the tunnel.  

We may choose not to notice that God is blessing our lives because it's easier to live like there is no hope, it's easier to put the blame onto others, blame society for our failings so that we don't have to  look to ourselves to see how bad things are. We choose to deny the good things, we choose to ignore the positives, we choose to be blind to Gods glory and power. 

I believe that anyone can overcome anything with God and be a success and be victorious, we may try and try on our own but we will soon crumble, but with God it's the only way to victory. Dark days don't last forever, in fact it is a time to learn and grow and become strong. 

In those times we must trust that God is for us and not against us, we must trust that God is good, God has a purpose for all things and when we trust, we see the truth and the purpose and the light.
 
No one is going to to change our circumstances, change our lives and make it better, no one is going to fix broken relationships or make amends for our mistakes but ourselves. It's time to stop blaming others. It's time to stop blaming God, take responsibility and be strong!

The things that matter.

                 We are so blind to what God has put in front of us, so distracted by the materialism of this world and by our own shallow existence that we have become more concerned by our own vanity and how we look and our outwardly appearance. Our lives are mostly centred around living a glamourous lifestyle, centred around fame, money and possessions, centred around sex and relationships, centred around reputation. Our lifestyles today are about keeping up with the joneses, being the toughest, being the best, w e've forgotten to see the beauty around us.  We've forgotten that we are beautiful with or without make up, inside and out. We've forgotten that fame is when we are idolised by our children, our friends and our family, knowing that whatever we do we will always be stars in their eyes.  We've forgotten the riches of life, the simple pleasures that cost nothing but mean the world - a  heartwarming hug, a passiona...

Dreams of a life

                 I watched a film tonight called Dreams of a Life about a 38 year old woman in London who lay dead in her flat and went unnoticed for 3 years. S he was a woman who isolated herself, who was very private and lacked trust in people. She was liked and loved by a lot of people but didn't have many if any friends. She seemed shy and reserved and didn't talk much. She had lost touch with people that cared about her and then found dead, alone in her flat for 3 years with the TV still on and no one came to check she was alright.   I'm not saying this could happen to me but in a way I feel like we are pretty similar in personality and although our lives are so different we could be the same.  I can relate  to her, her isolation,  her shyness,  her lack of friends, how she was a private person I can relate to it all.  I' m a nervous person; especially when it comes to talking. I am not a talker, I am an ob...

Fresh start!

           In life most of us start off badly, we make mistakes, we do things or say things to people that we regret, we do things to ourselves that we regret and most of us end up going in a direction we know is  harmful to us. But I believe these times teach us to grow, become stronger, succeed, move forward, trust that God is for us and that God has a purpose for all we endure in life and sometimes we just need to recognise and see the truth of things. Although we start off badly, in Christ we can start again, we can start anew, our past is erased. We learn from starting off badly and aim to live it right second time round and when we are joined with Jesus, we can live our lives right.
