Psalm 100:4-5 – "Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. For the Lord is good and his love endures for ever; his faithfulness continues through all generations."
Today bafethu I don’t have an article to upload therefore, I just woke up with thanksgiving in my heart and I thought why not give thanks today huh?
err, Don’t expect anything huge because I just scribbled something quickly, where I made grammar mistakes and spelling mistakes, and if the article doesnt flow, forgive me good people.
As the year is about to end, I took time to look back at how this year started and I can’t help but be thankful. Even if things are not yet perfect, today, I just want to give thanks to the almighty, and just thank him for everything that is right and everything that is not yet right.
I wrote down things I have accomplished, and things that I haven’t accomplished yet, and I just realised that, all those things that I’ve achieved, are the most important things in life, they had to be achieved first before anything else. I think to myself, if those are accomplished, how can I not achieve the rest? I realised that, all things achieved was not because of my works, nor my strength, nor my power, but it is by the grace and spirit of God.
To those that feel that their heart desires have not been fulfilled, to those that feel frustrated, to those who believe that their prayers are not being heard, I say to you, don’t loose hope God has heard your cries, keep your eyes fixed on the cross and keep on running the race until his promises come to pass. He also says, in Joel 2:25 I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. His promises are true and therefore I speak restoration to your life, because when God restores, he will give you four times, others seven times the things that you have lost. I always go to the book of 2 kings 4 and read the story of the shunammite woman and Elisha, great story…it really gives me hope and I thank God for it.
To those who have lost parents God is saying to you in John 14:18 I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you. To those who have lost loved ones and are crushed in spirit God says in Psalm 34:18The Lord is close to the broken-hearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. And I thank God for these words.
On a serious note guys, this home cell has been my hiding place, filled with words that nourished my soul (and I believe it has been for others as well) it really helped me grow spiritually, it comforted me, if it was not for it, I really don’t know where I would be. I thank each and every person that has contributed articles, every person that has shed their knowledge, and everyone that has responded. I must admit that I took it lightly and did not comprehend what it will do for me! So, thank you good people in Christ.
