Sexy

If you’re single and you’ve decided to
truly follow the Lord Jesus Christ in your
life (notice I mention ‘truly’ here, not
everyone who says they follow Him
really do with their life … anyway), you
must have noticed what
I ’m about to write
here.
Guys find you
extremely sexy. At
first, it may be because
you ’re now pure. You
don’t like talking about
the same things other women your age
do, you don ’t like going to the same
places they go and you don’t like wearing
the same kind of clothes they do. You’re
so different from most women that…
you’re actually more attractive than all of
them!
But the real reason behind this sudden
change of interest from these men is
beyond their own understanding. It ’s
spiritual. The minute you decided to
follow the Lord Jesus, you got yourself
onto satan ’s MOST WANTED list. And he’s
not stupid. He knows exactly how
vulnerable single women are with regard
to relationships.
One nice lady went to the point of telling
me the other day that she felt she was
bringing God shame for not being
married yet. As if being single was
shameful … can you see our enemy
having a field day here? Be smarter than
him and be on the look out. Don ’t settle
for anyone but a man of God – anyone
else is probably sent by satan to get you
confused about your faith, to get you to
do what ’s wrong, to carry a heavy
conscience to deal with before God and
finally to get you to give up on Him.
To be a true Christian is to be the odd
one, be it in school, at work, or at home.
You ’ll never be popular, and if you are,
you’re probably not a true Christian yet.

LIFE - The hardest Game

Give my life into His hands? That’s too
good to be true!” a young man
exclaimed. His mother left him when he
was only five years old and he had to
grow up taking care of himself and his
two little brothers.
He completely lost
his balance. Life
led him to drop
out of school and
join a gang later
on. All he wanted
was to be in
control, to find
some relief, but when one of his younger
brothers followed in his footsteps and
died in a gang fight – he thought his own
game was over.
Many young men and women have lost
control of their lives. Their youth doesn’t
mean anything when it comes to seeing
the wrong side of life. But just as a game
is made of choices, so is life.
It’s your turn and the cards are on the
table. What are you going to do?
Sometimes the best choice to make isn’t
the obvious one. It’s a hidden choice,
almost like a secret one.
Only those who search long enough get
it. When you have a relationship with
God, you know the Author of this game.
He guides you in every way, including
which relationship and career to go for.
But you may say, ‘Why hasn’t He done
that for me then?’ Well, it’s simple.
Read the first part of this paragraph again
… if you have a relationship with God …
He won’t be part of your life if you don’t
give it to Him. If you come to church but
still sleep with your boyfriend or
girlfriend,smoke, lie, steal, cheat or mix
with the wrong crowd, where does God
fit in?
If you want to win this game, you’ve got
to follow the rules … cheating your way
into life will not get you very far.

Blood of Jesus - What does it mean?

The blood of Jesus is the

foundation of redemption. Jesus

Christ died on the cross, shedding

His blood, (and was then

resurrected) as the only

acceptable payment for our sins.

The disciple Peter wrote in 1

Peter 1:18-19, “For you know

that God paid a ransom to save

you from the empty life you

inherited from your ancestors.

And the ransom he paid was not

mere gold or silver. He paid for

you with the precious lifeblood of

Christ, the sinless, spotless Lamb

of God. ” The Blood of Jesus

Christ is absolutely the most

precious thing God has offered us.

Every human born has sinned

against God and fallen short of His

standard (Romans 3:23). We do

not and cannot earn salvation by

keeping the Old Testament Law

or by simply being a good person.

We will fail every time; it is in

our nature to sin. It is only

through God sacrificing His Son

Jesus in our place, that we can

acquire complete forgiveness. We

can all attain this by accepting

Jesus as our Savior, and accepting

that He shed His blood to atone

for the sins of all who repent. The

act of communion does not save

us, but we honor this wonderful

gift from God with communion as

a way to remember His sacrifice.

Blood of Jesus - Why is this

required?

In the Old Testament (after

Adam ’s original sin), God

accepted the death of an animal

as a substitute for the sinner. The

animal ’s shed blood was proof

that that one life had to be given

for another. Life is precious and

God places great value on each

one of His created beings. This

agreement demonstrated that,

while blood symbolized death, it

also showed that a life was

spared. However, this was a

temporary covenant. This blood

needed to be repeated daily and

yearly.

God would later send His only Son

providing a new covenant, or

New Testament through Jesus

Christ. Jesus would die in the

place of all sinners. His sacrifice

fulfilled completely what the Old

Testament covenant meant to. His

blood would remove the sins of

the world for all who put their

faith in Him. This sacrifice would

never have to be repeated; it is

an eternal covenant.

John the Baptist called Jesus the

“Lamb of God, who takes away

the sins of the world” (John

1:29) The Lamb of course,

referenced the unblemished

animal sacrifice of old. There are

many references to sacrificial

offerings in the Old Testament.

One that may be most familiar is

the sprinkling of blood on the

Hebrew doorposts when they

were held in bondage by the

Pharaoh of Egypt. This act

provided God ’s protection as His

curse of the death angel passed

through the streets. This curse

was just one that God sent down

on Pharaoh, moving him to

release these Hebrew slaves.

The event was then

commemorated in the Hebrew

Feast of Passover. It is now

recognized as a “type” or

foreshadowing of the blood of

Jesus. The blood is a powerful,

freeing, and protecting provision

from God. As one Christian hymn

says, “There is power, power,

wonder-working power in the

precious blood of the Lamb. ” If

you have asked Jesus to be Lord

of your life, then you too have

applied the blood of the Lamb on

the doorposts of your heart. He is

covering your heart, and your life

with his protection and ever-

lasting forgiveness of sin.

Blood of Jesus - How is this

possible?

It is possible for everyone to have

the protection and forgiveness

that the blood of Jesus provides.

Regardless of what sins and

offenses we have committed

against God, He offers this gift to

each of us. John 3:17 tells us that

Jesus didn ’t come to condemn us

but to save us.

It is not enough to say we believe

in God or know about Him. We

must want know Him personally

and accept the sacrifice of His

Son, Jesus, to receive it. The

Bible, God’s Holy Word, says that

no one can enter heaven or get to

the Father except through the Son

(John 14:6) And in John 6:40,

Jesus says that all who believe in

Him will receive everlasting life

-- with Him! We are only asked

to believe (have faith), repent

(turn from sin), receive (salvation

through Jesus), confess Him, and

transfer ownership of our lives to

Him. If you have never asked

Jesus into your life, won ’t you ask

Him now......

God Bless You  

Where has it all gone so wrong?

We are currently living in a
society where all the things that
were upheld before, are now
mocked and ridiculed. You are
made to feel that you ’re stupid
and have no education. If you
choose to believe in God, wait to
get married before you have sex
with someone, pray and etc. All
the things that used to be
frowned upon before because
they were wrong are now
accepted, embraced, and seen as
something very normal.
This has led people to hide their
faith and even apologise if they
are seen demonstrating it. WHY?
WHO TOLD YOU, YOU MUST
APOLOGISE FOR BEING
DIFFERENT FROM EVERYONE
ELSE AND CHOOSING TO HAVE A
FAITH THAT IS ALIVE? We must
learn to embrace the fact that we
do have a belief in a God who can
do all things, and not be ashamed
to say that we believe in miracles
and amazing transformations that
ONLY happen through the power
of faith.
Learn to say: “I believe; so
what?” Why should you have to
justify the fact that you are not
afraid to break the mould and
show that unlike most people, you
have a God that can do
everything?
If we don ’t take a stand and fight
to show what we have inside,
what we stand for, and what we
believe in, this world will be
completely dried up of the light
that comes from God; because His
light shines through those who
have a burning faith and never
apologise for using it.
God is with you.

WHEN PLANS GET CANCELLED

One of the most common things
you ’ll fi nd in women these
days is the need to be in
control. We like to know what’s
going on and what will happen
later. We like to plan way
ahead of time. We set dates,
we set targets, we set a list of
future requirements.
But when those go wrong, get
out of our way. We ’ll literally
go wild emotionally. Stress is all
over our face and you ’ll know it
by the way we talk, walk, and
roll our eyes at the smallest
insignifi cant comment that is
made contrary to how we think.
When things don ’t work out
according to our plans, it feels
as though everything pauses.
We stop the routine, we stop
changing.
And then we tell ourselves
we ’ll get things in place, stuff
done, and then focus on other
important matters of life. I ’ve
had tons of those days and this
week literally began this way
until yesterday- -when all of
my entire new plan F went
down the drain--just like Plans
A, B, C, D, and E. It was around
4pm and all I could think about
was how would I ever get back
on track.
I was tired of it, I hadn’t been
sleeping much, something has
got to give! I looked at myself
in the mirror and quickly
spotted the main problem. I
was becoming my failed plans
and would soon become a
disappointment unto myself... so
in order to cut off the problem
at the root, I decided to take a
different approach to the whole
mess...
“Be joyful always; pray
continually; give thanks in all
circumstances, for this is God’s
will for you in Christ Jesus.” 1
Thessalonians 5:16 - 18
When circumstances are out of
our jurisdiction, there ’s really
not much else to do, so why not
just thank God instead? At the
end of the day, I was laughing
at the whole situation and it felt
great! We ’ll always be able to
make new plans anyway,
stressing over them is not
worth it at all.

True Love and Faith !

Someone I love had hurt me
right at the core and at first, I
was angry, very angry. I didn ’t 
want to see that person nor
hear that person ’s voice. I’d
think about what had happened
every single day and every
minute of the day.
Friends strived to find words to
help me, family encouraged me
to be in the faith, but nothing
and no one really understood
how I felt... I told myself I
wasn ’t going to let it get me
down, I made myself strong for
most of the day. Found things
to do, got occupied as much as
possible, but there were always
those times I just couldn ’t resist
it any longer.
The anger had become a deep
sadness. The pain inside of me
would always come to the
surface at one time or another
and I hated that. I wasn ’t
myself. ‘Where’s your faith?’
I’d ask myself. I’d look in the
mirror and rebuke that sad and
defeated woman looking at me
over and over again. I started
noticing how humbled I felt, as
if I had lost all the positive
things I once thought were in
me, and was now only left with
my own flaws.
I was vulnerable with all those
emotions right under my skin.
My husband often hugged me
about it, kept trying to make
me forget about it all, but he
could only give me so much... I
knew deep down, only God
could really help me and for
awhile, I thought He had left
me alone to suffer it all. I ’d
pray and nothing. I’d ask for
strength, and again nothing. I’d
serve Him more, give more of
myself in His Work, and still
nothing until... He used my
mother to e-mail yesterday ’s
blog’s Bible passage.
I read it over and over again,
with tears coming down my
face because I knew that was
what I lacked, true love. I put it
up as my desktop wallpaper and
often read it throughout the
day. Love is patient... Love
endures all things... Love never
gives up... The more I read it,
the more I let it sink in. I had
to love despite it all. I had to
endure it, be patient, persevere,
stop looking back, and most of
all, stop giving up! I realised
that my sadness really meant
giving up.
I was giving up on that person
and if I hadn ’t let love take
over again, that sadness would
have probably won the battle.
Faith walks alongside love. You
can ’t just use your faith, and put
love on hold, and vice versa.

The Mature Woman !

The mature woman, as the
name suggests, is like a ripe
fruit, full life and flavor... fruit
desired by those who 
appreciate the true taste, the
best of life.
She faced prejudices in a time
when others determined that
women were to perform minor
roles. Her maturity came with
time and shaped her form and
mentality. These changes came
through much struggle, mostly
internal, where a series of
concepts and complexes bred
inside her head from an early
age
.
Today’s youth have no idea of
the struggles of these charming
mature women. Thanks to her
aging, her spirit is balanced and
full of harmony, like no other
stage of her life. She has lived a
lot, gone through much
diversities, and faced many
problems and pitfalls. But she
wants her space and right to
life. She wants to live her life
to its fullest, and she has that
right which was acquired with
praise.
She doesn’t expect promises at
this stage of life, promises are
not suitable anymore. She ’s all
about decisions - it’s time for
decisions and achievements. It’s
either do or don’t, good or bad.
She no longer accepts
complications, time is an
essence now.
The past, present, and future
merge to form a single time in
her life: the present time. She
cannot and does not want to
cling to past events, nor does
she worry too much about the
future. She wants to live the
moment, and that is why she
chooses what she wants for
today. She ’s selective with her
friends. She knows what she
wants and goes for it.
Whoever insists in ignoring her
way of looking at life, or are
just unable to recognize the
fruit at its right time, will lose
an opportunity and will be
excluded by her. The fruit is
ripe, but, to harvest it, it is
necessary to know the
appropriate time, without
precipitation. It needs to be
done with great tact, care, and
affection.
No time to be reckless, nor too
slow. You have to be decided
and use the right time. You ’ll
be required a certain
knowledge of the female soul.
Know that, as fragile as she
appears to be, she is very sure
of herself. She knows the right
time to act, and does it with
charm and elegance. Delicate
and incisively, she does not
disappoint.
She is not ashamed of her age;
on the contrary, she is proud of
the years lived and of being a
mature fruit. However, she
regrets that some people will
be content to collect unripe
grapes, mainly because they
don ’t know how to give its due
proper value.
She knows that the best way to
hold her partner is making him
think that she sets him free.
She does not impose her
company but makes it
necessary. She ’s creative. Her
partner looks at her potential
and stays by her side because
he wants to, not because he has
to. She ’s a total woman, she’s
valued, and she knows just how
to be a companion. She does
not want to get ahead, but
neither admits falling behind.
She has a bag of life and knows
exactly how to use it, extracting
all life lessons and deleting all
life ’s trash. She knows how to
live.
This is the portrait of the
mature woman. You ’re
fortunate if you recognize her
and give her the proper value.
When she ’s in love, she’s her
best. She’s art and
determination itself.
