Word in Christ

Wishing you all the best in 2019!

I'm grateful for everything that God has done in my life, because without God, I wouldn't be the person I am today. I would have been in a very dark place right now. Life is not easy for anyone, we all have our challenges in life, but we need to have an attitude of gratitude, towards God, our families, and the people in our lives because without them, we wouldn't be where we are today, and you might be in a place right now where you feel like you want to give up. Please don't! God has a plan for your life!    

This message is very powerful, it touched me.  I hope it will touch you too.                                                                                    https://youtu.be/aM65PJvhQi8

Dear Mom,  You are the strongest person I know.  I know it's not  easy at times. But I just want to say,  thank you,  for everything you  have ever done,  and still  do for me.  When we go to church or  anywhere else,  people come up  to us,  and they want to help but when they realize what we and many other parents who have children with disabilities, go through, that it's never easy but with God. He gives us the strength for everything we and many other parents go through. So thank you to all the Mom's and Dad's out there. Remember no matter how hard it is or how hard it gets, never give up.  Jesus Loves You!

"When a snowflake falls onto your face  during winter time, it melts incredibly quickly,  but when you get thousands of snowflakes  together  they can stop traffic.  On our own,  even though  we're  unique distinctively unique  on our own  we're very fragile and that is  why it is  so important  that we don't live Christianity,  practice  Christianity,  solitary  it's not just about me,  and my own  journey  we got to realize in the words of Augustine,  you can not have God as your Father, without having the church as your Mother. Even though  she's flawed we're part of it, and she's the bride and Jesus is preparing the bride and it's very  important for us to be in community,  in community with each other."           Pastor J.John.

This is my Testimony My name is Erika-Leigh Pillay.  I was born premature with a disability  called  cerebral palsy.  I accepted Jesus Christ,  in my heart when I was  thirteen  years old.  I have been baptized at the age of fifteen. I have always believed that I would be healed, I would go to church,  and pray to walk.  But it never seem to happen, as I got older I was depressed  and I was angry  with God.  I did not want to believe in Him anymore, but through  family and friends  praying  over me, I slowly came back to God, through  servicing at church.  I now know that God has a purpose for me, whether I am walking or not. I am at peace with God and I love Him.    Keep a firm  foundation of faith "I tell you the truth,  if you had faith  even as small as a mustard seed, you could  say  to  this mountain, 'Move fr...

Powerful message, yet so simple.

"The eyes of the LORD are upon  the righteous,  and His ears  are  open unto their cry." Psalm 34:15

WHAT IS REPENTANCE? It is a change of mind, that leads to a change of heart, that leads to a change of action. In Salvation, this change involves both a turning from sin  and a turning to God.
