Posters.......

I have been in hospital the last two days, just for treatment and tests.  Those last two blog entries were posters on my wall.

Anyone who knows me, understands what a wimp I am when it comes to needles and blood.  I am truly petrified of needles - blood I am starting to handle quite well thanks to frequent nose bleeds!!!  Anyway as the 'vampires' were having there own sweet way with my blood, my eyes fell upon these posters and the words just moved me.  

In Church we have been looking at pressing on towards the goal and to me that was what the determination poster was all about.  It doesn't matter how fast or well you run this race, its the way you just keep persevering, no matter what is thrown at you, you just never give up, you keep going until you reach that finish line.

The attitude quote for me was just pure encouragement.  I heard a preacher say on Sunday that we cant live in the past or assume/let the past dictate who we are now.  To me this attitude poster supported that.  Don't look at the shadows, even if you yourself have made them, but fix your eyes on Jesus, the sunshine and light - because with Him even the darkest shadows will disappear.

Lord You're Holy.......

I have been reflecting in many things this week and a real song of meditation and amazing worship for me has been Karen Wheaton "Lord You're Holy" . I was introduced to it at Kingdom Faith by Jane Urquhart at an amazing women's conference I attended there. The Lyrics are just awesome which is why I wanted to share them with you. Lord You’re holy, Lord You’re holy and we lift You up and magnify Your name I look around and I see, All the works Your hands have made, The awesomeness of You, And how Your love will never fade, Mere words cannot express what I feel inside, I can’t describe Your glory divine, But as a token of my love, This is what I’ll do, I lift my hands and cry, Lord You’re holy, Lord You’re holy and we lift You up and magnify Your name There’s not enough words that I can say, To tell You how much, I appreciate, all the wonderful things, You’ve given me, Your love and kindness, Your tender mercies, It’s my desire, to praise You and to tell You how much,...

Channel Four.......

This evening I watched a programme called 'The Virgin Daughters" on channel four.  It was all about purity and sex before marriage. I have to be truthful it totally freaked me.   I really believe that marriage is sacred and an act that shouldn't be taken into lightly, I also whole- heartedly  believe that you should save yourself for marriage. Saving yourself however I don't believe means you cant hold hands or kiss.  God isn't going to be upset with you because you kissed a boy at the age of 15, you aren't going to be unclean for holding someone of the opposites sex hand.  It makes me think what impression are we giving to younger non-Christians, 'if you become a Christian you cant hold you boyfriend/girlfriends hand until you're married'; that is insane and frankly I don't think 98% of young people will buy into. Also no offense to my Dad, however I don't want him to pick my future husband.  If my previous boyfriends asked my Dads permissi...
