Inspiring post! 😀
I believe in myself
Because God believes in me
He entrusted me with His precious gift of talents
To fulfill His purpose on earth for Him;
If He believes I can do it
Why can’t you?
Some may seem better at their talents than I am
But I am content because it’s not what people think of me that matters;
Because my main aim in life to earn God’s approval with all I do;
No talent is better than the other;
We were all bestowed with them from the One above, the Giver of gifts;
No one gives someone a gift unless he believes he can take good care of it.
So be proud of who you are and what you can do
You are unique; the world can’t be complete without you;
Your little input adds to what the world is today or can be tomorrow;
Believe in yourself…

This photo brings back memories of patience for me. This is the longest had taken getting one shot. I spent 3 days going down to the local lake and sat patiently on a bench taking about 150 shots per day until finally got this one. I learnt that when you can’t see what’s in your viewfinder, don’t take photos of birds! lol 😀

Snettisham Beach Sunset was taken in Norfolk in September 2006 on holiday with Sarah and Bruce. It’s a place I wanted Sarah to see, as I have many happy memories of childhood holidays here. I love to go down to the beach, especially at sunset to capture the beautiful colours as the sun sinks into the sea. I’ve taken many since, but this is still one of my favourites.

The Sun on The Cross

At the Lighthouse last year (2012) while walking into Hunstanton along the cliff top we spotted this cross that had been put there by surveyors and as it was only a few hundred yards from the lighthouse we thought we would try and get a nice photo whilst the sun was setting.
If it wasn’t for digital camera’s it wouldn’t be possible for me to enjoy photography and after about 50 photos later and a wait of a few days until i could get home and download the images onto my computer i was shocked to find this waiting for me. 😀

This is amazing!! I love the way God can use others to speak to you! x 😀
Two sleepless nights. The worry monster sat on the edge of my pillow. It crops up every now and then since I’ve become widowed and lost the safety net of my husband’s income. Each time when it looks like I am running out of money, something, a definite God-thing happens.
Yet, I still go through the ritual toss and turn as each worry floats to the surface of my thoughts like a Magic Eight Ball phrase on the floating triangle. I haven’t been able to find a job, the freelance work is drying up, the books need to sell more, I should be speaking more, I got denied a lower rate of insurance because I have occasional muscle pains? Really?? . . . yah-di-yah, yah.
Last night, even my cats snuggled close and purred comfort–or maybe it was because it got below freezing and the cold air was seeping through their pet door in the…

Joke 4 2day! – The 3 Sons
February 7, 2013 Comments Off on Joke 4 2day! – The 3 Sons
Three sons left home, went out on their own and prospered. Getting together for Christmas, they discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly mother.
The first said, “I built a big house for our mother.”
The second said, “I sent her a Mercedes.”
The third smiled and said, “I’ve got you both beat. You remember how mom enjoyed reading the Bible? And you know she can’t see very well. So I sent her a remarkable parrot that recites the entire Bible. It took elders in the church 12 years to teach him. He’s one of a kind. Mom just has to name the chapter and verse, and the parrot recites it.”
Soon thereafter, mom sent out her letters of thanks:
“Dear Milton,” she wrote one son, “The house you built is too huge. I live in only one room, but I have to keep the whole house clean!”
“Dear Gerald,” she wrote to another, “I am too old to travel. I stay at home most of the time, so I rarely use the Mercedes.”
“Dearest Donald,” she wrote to her third son, “You have the good sense to know what your Mother likes.
The chicken was Dee-licious!”

Which Way?

✞ Quote 4 2day!
“Joy is a choice. It’s a matter of attitude that stems from one’s confidence in God- that He is at work, that He is in full control, that He is in the midst of whatever has happened, is happening and will happen. Either we fix our minds on that and determine to laugh again, or we wail and whine our way through life. We determine which way we will go.” – Chuck Swindoll
Diet or Die✞ – Part 1
February 3, 2013 Comments Off on Diet or Die✞ – Part 1
Romans 12:2 (VOICE)
Do not allow this world to mold you in its own image. Instead, be transformed from the inside out by renewing your mind. As a result, you will be able to discern what God wills and whatever God finds good, pleasing, and complete.
We see and hear all around how the world tells us about “Another fantastic new Diet that will transform our lives and bring us happiness.”
Is this true?
I know from personal experience that any diet is very short lived. Whilst growing up I was encouraged to overeat so I’ve always had this particular struggle. After seemingly endless attempts at dieting over the numerous years I’ve tried losing weight. I’ve always managed to put on more weight than I lost!
Things finally changed for me on New Years Eve 2012. I read Pete Briscoe’s ‘Experiencing Life Today‘ where he was talking about people always making New Years resolutions but failing all the time and then repeating this each year. He said that you need to have an inner “Revolution” NOT “Resolution” – resolutions rely on your OWN strength!
So I jumped straight into Prayer and asked God for an inner REVOLUTION and as I’m in Christ, for him to grow the fruit of self control within me. It’s now the beginning of February and a few days ago I had a Vision/Dream (the photo at top of my post is the picture I designed to help me remember it).
I felt God was telling me that if I continue to live in the flesh and follow worldly Diet’s, then I’d be caught in this cycle for the rest of my life. But if I crucify my flesh as Christ did for me then what Paul said in Galatians 5:24 is the path he’s given me to follow.
📖 Verse 4 2day!
Galatians 5:24 (NIV)
Those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires.
Galatians 5:24 (MSG)
Among those who belong to Christ, everything connected with getting our own way and mindlessly responding to what everyone else calls necessities is killed off for good – crucified.
I was told by my lovely wife Sarah and my true friend and Christian brother Ben to post this on my Blog. I am not a writer by any means but my hope is that this may help you as it’s helping me.
I’ve tasted the self control fruit – the Spirit has freed me from alcohol abuse, stopped me swearing and ended the uncontrollable anger and rage that I felt whilst I was coping with loosing my sight at the age of 24. Now I Pray that I’ll finally knock down this giant that has been taunting me my whole life!
” If you focus on the giant then YOU will stumble but if you focus on GOD the giant will stumble.”
“Are you allowing the Holy Spirit, who is inside of you, to have His way with you and your body? Or are you trying to control things yourself? The answer to these questions can make all the difference in the world for you today!” (Pete Briscoe)
🙏 Prayer 4 2day! “Jesus, I thank You for my body. Thank You for giving me this temporary vessel to live in on this earth. Today, I offer myself to You. All of me. Take my body and make it an instrument of Your righteousness. I surrender and ask that You would take control of it. Use it for Your glory as an instrument of worship, prayer, and loving service to those around me. Amen.”

My Prayer For 2013
January 2, 2013 0 Comments
“Dear God, my prayer for 2013 is a fat bank account and a thin body. Please don’t mix these up like you did last year.” – Unknown
New Year’s resolutions seem to have more clout when they sound nice and spiritual. Another popular Christian New Year’s resolution is this: I’m going to read through the Bible in a year! I’m going to start in Genesis and by the end of December I’ll be finishing up in Revelation!
Again, I’m all for that! But that type of resolution is not a revolutionary statement. Try this on for size:
Revolutionary Statement Number Two: The Bible is living, accurate, and adequate. I’m going to allow it to speak to me.
“Every word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him. Do not add to his words, or he will rebuke you and prove you a liar.” – Proverbs 30:5-6
God’s Word is true. He told us that thousands of years ago and it’s still true today. Not only is it accurate, it’s adequate. We tend to add a lot of stuff to it like books, CDs, tapes, music, and videos. There is nothing wrong with those things, unless they start to take the place of your Bible.
The big problem with resolutions dealing with Bible reading is (again) that the focus is on you and what you do, rather than on God and what He does. Rather than making a Bible reading resolution, how about this for a New Year’s revolution instead? Rather than trying to get through the Bible in a year, what if you ask God to let the Bible get through you this year?
See the difference!? How about opening yourself up and letting the living Word of God impact your life as it chooses? What would happen if your focus was not on reading a certain number of passages a day, but rather on allowing the Holy Spirit to soak the Word into your soul, and change who you are as a person, and change how you live every day?
Heavenly Father, I praise You that You have given me the Living Word – Your words – through which I can hear from You and experience You. When it comes to my Bible, focus my heart on my relationship with You moment by moment, rather than my reading habits over the course of a year. Amen.
