...It's The Little Things ....

..... "The generous soul will be made rich, And he who waters will also be watered himself....." Proverbs 11:25 (NKJV)


Hello everyone. How are we today? How has the weather been? and preps for the school holidays? Yea I know! So much to sort! It is all well.

So this morning, I picked up a lady on my way to work (I actually try to do that often, my own small social responsibility :)  and when she got down, she thanked me profusely. "God Bless you so much ma"! My heart swelled with joy, so little for me but so much for her! .

A little ahead, I saw another lady with a baby on her back, I picked her too! :) and of course by the time I dropped her off she had a smile on her face! Beneath my breath, I muttered  a simple prayer for both ladies for God to bless them and meet them at the point of their needs! Two people touched with my little mite! My heart was aglow!

And it struck me, it's the little things! Yes. the little and seeming little things!....

Seriously, it's not the big things! If you can do the big things, then by all means go ahead!, but you don't have to feed the whole of a village! It doesn't have to be some grand show! What you see as small may be a windfall for another. The most important thing is that God who sees in secret will reward accordingly.

Many times, we are under undue pressure to do so much! even beyond our own capacity! Hello darlings, this is not a circus show! It's all about God Almighty! HE is the only audience we need to please. He sees our hearts and knows our various issues. We need not get overly worked up about what is beyond us at a particular point in time

Someone might say.. "how can I pick up strangers? It's not safe! I know someone who was mugged when they helped"... hmmmm

Someone else may say, "but I don't have a car" ... "I can barely pay my transport fare" Yes it understandable, but what works for YOU?!  You can give a smile, you can give a (genuine) complement, you can say a word of prayer, or you can simply keep a grateful heart and bless God for the breath of Life!

Something must work for you! What can you do? It's the little things. Like little drops of water into a bucket, they add up! It may take time and patience, but hey, you did a good deed along the way :) .

There is always a good reward for every kind deed with the right motives. God sees and He rewards, that's so sure and I am a witness.

So today, make up your mind. Do your little bit, shine you little light! a tiny ember can light up a forest. And our awesome God who sees all will replenish you abundantly!

Enjoy the rest of the week and long weekend. Please try and get some well deserved rest oh (note to self! lolz!)

..... and remember keep basking in God's awesome Love ..... It's the most blissful place! Shalom :)

....Angels Among Us! (God's Awesome Love)

"But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions — it is by grace(that) I (you) have been saved"... Ephesians 2:4-5 (NIV)


Happy New Month Dearies. I Pray the good Lord Meet Us all at the Very Point of Our Needs to HIS Awesome Glory! Amen.

So, how have we been? Boy! It’s July already?! We have got to make the best of the time we have here oh. Hmmm. The next minute, we will be wishing each other Merry Christmas, then another new year?...

Today, I want to tell you one experience I had recently, that again confirmed to me how much God really loves me oh (as sure as HE loves you! Yes you! You! and You!)

A few weeks ago, I was involved in this terrible accident. It was awful! But for God’s awesome Love and Protection, maybe Yours Truly would have gone to “Rest in the Father’s Bosom oh… (nah, not a chance folks! Lolz! I’m still here for the loooong haul, if Jesus tarries, so y’all better put up with me…. :)

Where was I? Yes! The accident. Like I said, God truly cares for me oh. It was a very close shave. But for God’s Love, Grace and Mercy, it would have been another story.

That awesome Saturday morning, eve of Resurrection Sunday (Imagine! Easter Saturday, this yeye devil just tried this Special Jesus daughter!) I was driving to pick up our daughters from bible club; which they hadn’t been to in ages, and I took a wrong turn (yea I know, I shouldn’t have, the devil ensured he reminded me, but sincerely, it was an honest mistake)

As I veered off an exit to get to another, (and I thought I was truly clear) a Toyota SUV ran smack into me! (It almost certainly dropped from the sky!) It was as if I had been hit by a tornado and the impact literally spinned my car in a half turn from right to left! (Yes, it was that bad) and in a second the whole front end of the car was squashed!

The miracle(s)? Uncountable!  First, to my awesome relief, not one soul was hurt! (there were seven people including the driver, a woman as well in the other car) as well as myself, every single person was unscathed! Not even a scratch!

Secondly, I hadn’t picked up the girls. Don’t even let us explore the awful possibilities if the girls had been in the car! Hey, Holy Spirit! It wouldn’t have been funny at all!

Third! He sent Divine Comfort (even in the midst of all the castigation! And boy, was I castigated!) “Madam what were thinking? How could you take that turn? You would have just killed yourself for nothing!”  said the Lady Traffic Warden

“Are you blind?” said another voice, “How come you didn’t see the oncoming vehicle?” wow! It was terrible! Not even one person cared to ask if I was ok! :(

And the divine comfort came! Sincerely, He was an angel personified! “Madam are you ok? Are you hurt? Can you try and move the car off the road so you do not get hit by another oncoming vehicle? Where is your phone? Have you called your husband?” He reeled off one reassuring question after the other! Seriously, how could I have remained sane without that voice?

After ensuring I had moved the car, checked that I had all valuables in the car, windows up, doors locked and keys securely in my pocket, He also ensured that I reached my husband on phone after several tries and after that he literally disappeared! 

Well, not puff into thin air, but when I looked out for him to say thank you, he was nowhere to be found! It was uncanny! I searched oh, searched amongst the crowd that had now surely gathered to no avail!

Anyway, my own interpretation is that God sent an Angel oh! (believe it or not! For even HIS wording Psalm 91:11-12 says that He has given HIS Angels charge over us to keep us in ALL ways…)

To cut a long story short, that’s how God saved me oh, again as always, from the machinations of the devil!

Are you aware? That we all have the privilege of HIS awesome Love! All we just have to do is Trust, Rest and Believe that God has got us covered at all times….. shikena!

This new month, take a step further, Trust and Believe God more and HE will come through I Promise :)

There’s more to be said about this incidence oh, but let me stop here. We shall continue in a later post.

In the meantime, take care and Keep Basking in God’s awesome Love…It’s the best place to be. Shalom :) !
