I'm passionate about...

My story with God
Many times we come up against the issue of supporting others. Illness, Finances, relationships, and death are a few issues where support is called for.

I want to discuss how we are to support those who are afflicted with illness whether emotional, physical, or spiritual.

As Christians we have a responsibility to care for those who are ill, First by prayer, because we should always be lifting up those who are sick and ask God to heal them.

While we are waiting for that healing to manifest we should be doing all we can by supporting them in a practical since. Bring meals, visit them, go do errands for them, do Bible studies with them if they are up to it. And most of all keep praying with, and for them.


Do not ever make the person feel bad if they are not instantly healed. The two pillars of love are patience and kindness, our job is to support them and not judge them.

“Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord;” ( James 5:14 )

“Because I was hungry, and you gave me something to eat. I was thirsty, and you gave me something to drink. I was a stranger, and you welcomed me. I was naked, and you clothed me. I was sick, and you took care of me. I was in prison, and you visited me.’
“Then the righteous will say to him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and give you something to eat, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38When did we see you as a stranger and welcome you, or see you naked and clothe you? When did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?”
40The king will answer them, “I tell you with certainty, since you did it for one of the least important of these brothers of mine, you did it for me.”
( Matthew 25:35-40 )

“And they were casting out many demons and were anointing with oil many sick people and healing them.' ( Mark 6:16 )

“...they will lay hands on the sick, and they will recover." ( Mark 16:18b, )

Also there will be support that is needed for those who have mental issues. Our support for them could be to make sure they are taking their prescribed medications, visiting them, and to just be in their life for them.

The scripture says to comfort ( be near ) the feeble minded. ( Fainthearted, discouragement, little strength, timid ) (1 Thessalonians 5:14 0

This scripture really says a lot about what it means to comfort some one with a mental illness, “to be near them”.

Many times we just stay clear of them and hope the secular doctors can help them.

You may know of someone in your church who has one of their family member diagnosed with Alzheimer's. Others might have a family member who is suicidal, and maybe your best Christian friend has fallen into clinical depression.

It is at these times that we need to draw near to them and bring comfort, support, and encouragement to them.

There was a story in Mark chapter two about a paralyzed man who was brought to Jesus to be healed, His friends were so disparate to see their friend healed that they literally tore the roof off the house so they could lower the cot with the paralyzed man was on it down into the house where Jesus was, and the man was healed.

This is such a picture of how we are to support and help the sick. These men loved their friend and had faith to believe Jesus could heal him and they were so convinced that they went to extremes to see their friend healed.

It makes all the difference in the world for those who are afflicted with physical or mental illness to know that they are loved and do not have to face their illness alone.
Other stuff about me:
I write devotionals that I share with others, I write them from the things God is teaching me every day.

I know how discouraged we can get and how important it is to find a refreshing word of encouragement. I desire to have the moral character of Jesus to develop more in my life so that glory will be given to God. I desire to touch others with the love of God in this new year like never before.

I want nothing more than to hear my Lord say well done thy good and faithful servant, to end my race well for Him and to finish the race of faith he has given to me.

    Thank you for your prayers... We are truly in dire need of all the prayers that can go up!

    I wish I could listen to a sermon by you... I also pray that God lifts you to heights (unexpected) and that you bring joy to hungry Christ followers. I think specifically of Jesus' command to Peter... Feed my lambs... Feed my sheep.

    May God bless you and your loved ones and continue serving our awesome Saviour and Keeper....

    Fond Jesus love

    I wish I was present... it truly sounds awesome. I just want to say thank you... You will be leaving a legacy behind. If only we can all just leave a legacy... Some people chase after fame and fortune... not realizing that our riches are the promise of our Father...

    I know that we will meet one day... not here ... but when we depart from this world with all the hate and turmoil.

    Bless you and carry on doing your word as a servant of Jesus

    Fond love

    Battered baby in serious condition - hospital

    A one-year-old baby brutally assaulted during an apparent robbery in Randburg was still in a serious condition in hospital, an official said on Friday.

    Sandton Medi-Clinic spokeswoman Liezel Furlong said the baby girl's condition was serious but would not give any further details.

    "At this stage nothing has changed and the child is still in a serious condition," she told Sapa by phone.

    Police remain tight-lipped about their investigation into the attack at a house in Robin Hills on Thursday, during which the baby and her caregiver were brutally attacked.

    Colonel Eugene Opperman said he had spoken to the baby's mother and the caregiver, but would not share any more information with the media.

    "The investigation will go on. We have nothing more to tell you than what we have already given out," he said.

    Paramedics said the woman and baby were taken to hospital in critical conditions with serious head injuries.

    "They were both transported to hospital in a critical condition," ER24 spokeswoman Vanessa Jackson said.

    The child minder was taken to Helen Joseph hospital with gashes to the forehead and behind her ear, reported The Star newspaper.

    The baby's mother - identified by Beeld newspaper as Madelein Kruger - arrived home from work at 1pm to find the baby unconscious and the care-giver beaten and tied up.

    The Star reported a neighbour came out of her house to see the mother holding the child in her arms.

    Blood was pouring from her nose and ears, Olga Rossouw told The Star.

    When two security guards arrived on the scene, the baby had stopped breathing.

    They drove the mother and baby to Sandton Medi-Clinic. - Sapa

    Hi brother Bob, Hope all is well. I am praying for our endurance and faithfulness. It says,"Anyone who loves his father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves his son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me; and anyone who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it." Matt: 10:37-39. This calls for total surrender, which I know is what God wants! Love in Christ. Jackie

  • Christy Gabriel

    I am being made aware that Jesus is coming sooner than many think. Many will not be ready for His return. We need to be ready, wise virgins, keeping oil in our lamps.

    Please do keep on praying for the request of mine down below, and I know I can count on you to do it:

    Please "WIN the 10/40 WINDOWS" for JESUS CHRIST.
    The 10/40 Windows (located between 10 - 40 degrees North of Equator - between West Africa to East Asia) need Missionaries, have no church at all, and there live about 40 percent of the world population. INDONESIA, my country is in the 10-40 windows though we have churches. Let's get on our knees, praying hand in hand with me for their revival. I look forward to the day when the Lord who I kneel to worship will be recognized by all the living and the dead as the One True Lord.
    Thank you so very much

    With love in Christ: Christy Gabriel B
