"Make It Over"

Image
The beautiful Lewis/ Wickham Boardwalk in Bridgetown Barbados! Recently, it has been out of comission due to major repairs.  Now restored to its former glory, it has once again become the the joy of every pedestrian. You know, sometimes we too can become worn and weary from various life situations and often we are in need of restoration. I have discovered that in times like these I can call on Jesus. By giving my situations to Him, He is able to turn things around like no one else can! Yes, He gives me & my problems a complete make -over. And He helps me to " Make it over" every hurdle in my way. This, incidentally is the title of one of my songs on my new  Album "Going with Jesus" Here is a link where you can check out "Make it Over" & other songs: https://itunes.apple.com/album/id1229476885 Here's to your make- over!!

For some time now I have been engaged in another aspect of ministry – that of music, and have not written any blog posts. My sincere apologies! With God’s help I will be posting again from time to time. So, what have you been up to since last I posted? I hope that you have been engaged in ministry and are using your gifts and talents energetically. Hope you haven’t been overwhelmed by trials, disappointments, challenging illness, etc.? If so, please tell me that you are relying on the resources of strength and power of the Holy Spirit, who is your promised Helper. These are indeed challenging times which exact every ounce of spiritual and physical strength from us. I know.  I’ve experienced it. All we can do is rely on the spiritual ma nna from heaven –the Word of God – to sustain us.  In addition, praying to our heavenly Father brings untold relief and release. Don’t live another moment without it. Finally, it helps to rememb...

Spiritual Sensitivity (#170)

Image
“Open my ears, that I may hear Voices of truth Thou sendest clear”           “Open My Eyes that I May See” by Clara H. Scott Okay, I’m going to play this note and I want you to sing out the 4 th note after it.” The voice?  My piano teacher The time?  Many moons ago. The object?  To develop my musical ear. I was not fond of this area part of piano lessons. However, today I understand and appreciate what she was trying to achieve.  She was developing my vocal sensitivity. Sensitivity is so important.  It employs the use of our senses:  touch, hearing, seeing, Knowledge is transmitted though the senses. This year I want to develop my spiritual sensitivity.  I want to be attune and in tune to what God is saying to me. This is so important to doing His will. We must first hear from Him, and also we must be able to see the areas in our lives in which He is working ...

Thanks & Best Wishes for 2015 (#169)

This year 2014 is on its last legs.  Soon, it will be put to bed permanently. Then the year 2015 will awaken. What will it hold for you and me?  Only God knows! That’s why we need to keep in close contact with this Omnipotent (All Powerful), Omniscient (All Knowing) and Omnipresent (Always Present) God – the Lord Jesus Christ! I don’t know about you, but without His help, care, protection and provision, I would not have made it this year. I can recall being unwell on two occasions this year and I am thankful for the healing I received.  He truly is the Great Physician! I am thankful also for the many open doors for ministry this year.  Let me take the time to express heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the various churches/organizations which allowed me to minister the Gospel in song. Finally, to you my readers, please have a very prosperous and productive and Christ-centred 2015. I also wish many open doors for you in every area...

Beautiful Simplicity (#168)

Image
“The first Noel the angels did say Was to certain poor shepherds in fields as they lay…” I was reminded of the raw simplicity of the first Christmas as the song “The First Noel” came to me at the start of my devotions this week. This spurred me to hammer out the tune on my keyboard.  The result?   An impromptu singing session! That is certainly “devotions set free!” As I was saying earlier, there was a raw simplicity to the first Christmas.  Here we have an ordinary Jewish couple chosen to parent the Christ Child; the birth proclaimed first to poor shepherds; a stable the place of birth; and the town, the small city of Bethlehem. Yes, there was a supernatural element: angelic choirs and visitations; kings from the East following a star which miraculously led to the place where the heavenly king was born. But there is an overarching simplicity about the events nevertheless. I call it beautiful simplicity.  A heavenly king born...

One In Christ (#167)

         “Christ has made peace between us. He has brought both Jews and non-Jews together into one people. He has broken down the wall that divided us.”                                                                           Ephesians 2:14 (NLT)   Why do we erect walls? To feel secure.  Nothing wrong with that; security is important.  Walls…gates…are necessary feature for properties, public or private. Well I recall the time we – my husbands and I were passing the home of a well-known family here in Barbados. As we neared the property we were hailed by a group of barking Dobermans jumping excitedly.  One in particular – young in age – was really intent on seeing us, but unfortunately, it was not as tall as the others.  So only its hea...
