I was Saved in 1975. As the lines above suggest. " I don't think I'm living for him" I am hoping that with more friends, and accountability, I can have Jesus more in my life.
Other stuff about me:
My unemployment is a big deal, I am seeking fellowship arount that topic, and would like to start a group about christians going back to work,since you don't have any groups loke this .
I asked God to take away my pain
God said, No
-it is not for me to take away,
But for you to give up.
I asked God to make my handicapped child whole
God said, No
-Her spirit was whole, her body was only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience
God said, No
-patience is a by-product of tribulations,
It isn’t granted, it is earned.
I asked God to give me happiness
God said, No
-I give you blessings, happiness is up to you.
I asked God to make my spirit grow
God said, No
-you must grow on your own
but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked for all things that I might enjoy life
God said, No
-I will give you life so that you may enjoy all things
I asked God to helped me LOVE others,
as much as He loves me
God said…..
Ahhh, finally you have the idea.

Let's pray this prayer for a week...en tell everyone how God renew r heart...
As King David said, WASH ME THOROUGHLY FROM MY
INIQUITY, AND CLEANSE ME FROM MY SIN.
( PSALM 51:2 *NKJV )
Here’s a daily prayer …. WASH DAY….
Monday Wash Day
Lord, help me wash away all my selfishness and vanity, so I
may serve you with perfect humility through the week ahead.
Tuesday Ironing Day
Dear Lord, help me iron out all the wrinkles
of prejudice I have collected through the years so that I may
see the beauty in others.
Wednesday Mending Day
O God, help me mend my ways so I will not
set a bad example for others.
Thursday Cleaning Day
Lord Jesus, help me to dust out all the many faults I have been
hiding in the secret corners of my heart.
Friday Shopping Day
O God, give me the grace to shop wisely so I may purchase
eternal happiness for myself and all others in need of love.
Saturday Cooking Day
Help me, my Savior, to brew a big kettle of brotherly love and
serve it with clean, sweet bread of human kindness.
Sunday The Lord's Day
O God, I have prepared my house for you. Please come into my
heart so I may spend the day and the rest of my life in your
presence.
Heaven is not here, it's There. If we were given all we wanted here, our hearts would settle for this world rather than the next. God is forever luring us up and away from this one, wooing us to Himself and His still invisible Kingdom, where we will certainly find what we so keenly long for
Hi Lennard, thanks for the kind words. I speak English and Afrikaans, a bit of German and Dutch. I live in Portugal and speak a little but not fluently. I mostly communicate on the internet in English. I will pray for you regarding the unemployment. Trust the Lord with all your heart. No one can build ultimate security on things or people. Real strength comes from relying on God. "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me." Phil. 4:13
Have a blessed day.
