He is the Best Dad in the World

Friends I would like to tell you about a man that God brought into our lives if I could. Our children say of him that he's the best dad in the world. As I watch the man I love play with our children, the love that I feel swells in my heart. His tender touch. He is loving and kind.

As they run to greet him, he opens up his arms. With a hug and a kiss they sure greet him like this. What a dad they do have. Thank you Heavenly Father for making our kids glad. You gave to them the very best of dads.

Hey dad - look at this. Thank you dad for doing that. How he loves his two great kids morning, noon and night. He's always there to show he cares. Out with the footy, now come on son. Helps him all he can. Then his daughter is standing there all pretty. Come on dad, lets get going to the netball. Now don't be late.

Yes he loves his children. His precious gifts from God. If you ever want to meet him come and stay awhile for his kids will surely tell you he's the best dad in the world. Now I know you would say that your mum is the best mum in the world, but to me when I hear that from my kids I feel like a queen or a duchess. I feel very special for our children are to us the best in the world amen. Thank you friends. I pray this will bring happy times for you. God is there for you so thank Him for sending His Son Jesus for all of us. Bye for now. Until next time.

Innocence

Father God so Loves His children.

My friends may I share my heart with you this day. This is what happened. Two little innocent faces, peering up to me. One is my daughters loving face and other is my sons cute grin. Playing and laughing so happily, telling secrets as they go teasing and tricking me. Come on mama we are teasing you. I smile at them, enjoying their game. Oh I love them these children of ours.

Praise God. Hallelujah. Does that remind you of your little ones? This was written in 1982. It is great to keep these alive in your heart.

The next one is called love. Have I ever told you of the love that I have for two little children that God gave to us. He took them aside till the timing was right, then He placed them with us to bring up quite right.

We are all in His plan brother and sister you see. He takes us and gives us as you will all see. So give all your love to your children each day and don't be ashamed to tell them to pray. Teach them and guide them and tell them of love. Through Jesus our Saviour who gave them to us. Amen. I am sure you have your own special moments. Our Creator wanted me to share all these with you. God bless all - each and every one. Until next time. Stay happy and safe.

A Day With The Lord. Amen!

My dear friends this is a day that we, us ladies, sometimes feel when are going through a bad day. I wonder if any of you has been in this place before. Please let me know on the blog. Thank you.

Could you lend the Lord your ear for just a little while. You know I'm not one to moan or get upset but last night I didn't sleep a wink. My throat hurt, my back ached and my husband snored all night.

Today is Tuesday. Well I think it is. The weather man said fine today but he is surely wrong. I can hardly hear a thing for the rain is pouring down. The postman is late again and that makes it three times this week. Lord, you know I'm not one to complain but it really takes the cake. All I ever get is bills. I feel so cold so very cold. My head is hurting, my nose is running, what a terrible day I am having.

My cousin Bill said he would come by to help me pass the day but Bill is such a dill and that wife of his is always in strife. Still I will try to be happy. Old Mrs Brown is calling out again. I don't know what she is saying. I suppose she is moaning again. I can't stand people who moan, can you?

Well Lord you know I love you. Betty Sue just ran right on by. That will be right, she's a little skite. What an awful day this is. What my children home already? Now my husband will be home sooner than I think. Lord tomorrow when I meet with you, I know you will be ticked pink cos you see I can hardly speak. Yes you got through to me about my nasty ways. Please forgive my moanings and let me share your love.

A Baby Girl - A Thankful Heart

Our Creator who knows all things and plans all things from above.

Hallelujah. They placed the small pink bundle in my arms. I felt as though heaven itself just stood and watched. I gave a sigh and then whispered "dear God thank you, with all my heart thank you."

I tenderly kissed that little face and my heart almost stopped beating. As Carol grabbed my fingers and held them and seemed to say mama I know that you are mine and I am yours. Well my baby girl is quite grown up, beautiful and smart. Let me tell you there are still times even now when Carol goes to take my hand my heart almost stops beating, as I quietly whisper "Carol Anne you are mine and I am yours." Thank you Father for my precious Carol. Thank you for creating me, her mama.

Mothers are you reading this? I hope you are and that is bringing great joy as you read it. God bless you all . Until next time.

A Mothers Plea

Jesus loves and forgives us even when we do wrong so repent tell Him you're sorry

Amen. Stand by your son, no matter what hes done for God who made you also made him. For God who loves you, also loves him. Stretch forth your arms and hold him tight, as God our Father holds us close. For every one who goes astray, for every lamb who has lost his way, our loving Father cries this way.

Your heart is breaking, your son is aching. Silence fills the air, then she finally hears him whisper, "I'm sorry mum." That's all she needs to hear as she embraces him tenderly, she cries "My son, my own boy, I want to do more." She smiles through her tears and softly whispers, "I will put you in our Fathers hands. The best for you, is in His loving care."

I am talking to you parents out there. If your child does wrong, love them and let them know that you are there for them. Please don't turn your back on them - that's when they really need you most.

Mothers

God made my mother, so full of grace and He gave her a beautiful face. Loving and longing and ready to share, always there when you need some care. Carrying the burdens too great to bear. Never too busy, she goes her children's pace. She doesn't want satin or lace. She just wants her children to love and be loved.

God made mothers. He made them all. They love and give and love so more. When Sunday comes around, that special mothers day, our two beautiful children quietly close the door. One is busy with the toast the other gets the tea. Then the whispers I can hear. Being woken up with tea and toast in hand. A kiss and a hug from my two favourite kids and hey mum "We've got you a gift." With tears in my eyes, I hug them right back and thank God for the privilege of being their mum.

I pray that this will mean something to some of you mums. That it may bring a smile to your face but if some of you don't feel the same way I pray that the pain will ease and that our God will bless you greatly. Bye for now. Until next time.

Growing Up

Heavenly Father, you created mankind to grow up. Amen!

From the cradle to the grave. Hallelujah! They've put their little toys aside. They're growing up too fast for me. I'd like them back the way they were, when mummy was enough to see. Kissing knees and getting hugs and protecting them from the world.

But now it's come to us. What other parents must bear that thing called growing up that children have to face. No more do I hear, "Kiss it better mummy" or "Do you know that?" Now its I can do that and I know that.

Instead of putting them to bed each night the way I used to do, it's "Can I watch a movie?" or "Can I read some more." Yes our kids are in their teens but I still hug and kiss them and check at them at night for I know they will always be our sheer delight.

You parents who are reading this may relate to all this. If you do just let me know. Write a comment on my blog. I'd love to hear from you. Thank you and God bless each and every one of you. Bye until next time.

Our Childrens Secret

Do you like secrets? I know I love good ones.

Good morning my friends. Any mums out there who might be reading this, I pray that you will be blessed of the Lord as you let Him touch you.

Tomorrow we will go shopping, the children whispered all excited. There is only one week left to go before that day is to come. The love that I felt for my children swelled in my heart. Their loving ways, kind and thoughtful. As I thanked Father God for the blessings He did give, the tears they fell like raindrops like a quiet but heavy storm.

As morning breaks and day begins, our children depart for an early start. I'm watching the time that's ticking away. The phone rings, "mum we are coming home." Through the door they do come all excited with gifts.

Nineteen years ago, on Sunday a week from now, my husband and I became as one. Pretty green paper and bows of cream as the boxes are placed on the cabinet and the children cry with glee, "you can look now, but don't you touch."

I can hardly wait till Sunday, can you? Yes you may ask, well what did your children get you? A beautiful silver plate with silver salt and pepper shakers and a beautiful card. You know I always have told our children I would buy them the moon and the stars if I could and the silver and gold. But putting them in Our Creators hands is the best of all. Amen! Thank you my Holy Spirit. You have given to us something so priceless that money can't buy. Thank you for being here friends. God Bless. Until next time.

Growing Up With Jesus

Jesus would sit down, and the little ones would sit upon His knees, they all loved their Jesus.

Amen. My friends how are you today? Well I hope and I pray this will touch your hearts as you hear yet another story.

To my children I tell of the years with them - from babyhood and toddlers. Then as the years came creeping up, as teenagers.


Now with our kids, Carol (Boo) and Michael (Mate), we are sharing every minute to live and love with them each day. We tell them of Jesus our Saviour this day who knew them and loved before they were born, who knew every hair upon their head and every thought before its said. I would like to thank you Jesus for giving to us two precious children.

As they went to school each day I could hardly wait for the day to go by. Each day their dad Joe would ring and say to me did the kids get off alright today? For you see he loves his children so very much. At times like this dear Lord I feel that saying thank you doesn't seem enough. What more can I say. What more can I do but offer myself as a vessel to You so that you may use me as you will.

If any mums are reading this, I wrote this in 1983. Of course our children, Carol and Mike, are grownup now and are beautiful and smart. They know that their Jesus, God's Son is with them now and for ever. If this has touched your hearts in any way mums, please write it on the blog. God bless you.

Why Aren't I Loved? Why Aren't I Wanted?

Jesus says suffer the little children to come unto Me.

My friends, I would like to share my heart with you this day. My heart goes out on this beautiful day God has made, as I sat in the presence of a young man. He told me his story. It was sad and he was broken hearted. If you looked at him you mightn't have seen it, but I knew as he spoke that he was hurting inside.

His sister and brothers had parties and gifts but he didn't. The young man couldn't work out why was he treated different? Not a thing did he get or a kind word or smile. Yet still his mum and dad gave out those things to the rest. Don't they know, they have left out the best.

So at sixteen he headed out the door. The others saw - didn't they care? Now as I ponder on this man, my heart and soul cries out for him. I told him there's people who care and Jesus knows and loves him so. Now he will soon be a dad himself. He will pour out on his child what he never had - the love, the gifts and the dreams untold.

In the moments when he has time to think, his soul still cries out why was I left alone to weep? Why couldn't the others see through my lack of sleep. Now my heart skips a beat as my mind goes back to another little one very close to my heart. My soul cries out I love him and try to be there to show him I care.

This little one is growing up with a ache in his heart and wonders why his brothers are being taken out places while he has to stay behind. I pray he will be blessed of the Lord. Doesn't Jesus say suffer the little children to come unto me. Our Lord will see this little one through what ever is ahead. He is a grown man now. I believe he is doing well. Praise the Lord. Amen.

God Spoke Out of the Thunder and Lightning.

An Instant Answer from the Creator of the Universe

Good morning friends, I hope you are enjoying your day. I would like to tell you another story.

The Lord put on my heart to pray for my second son. So going into the lounge room around twelve o'clock that night I started to pray. As I got into one area, I stopped and asked the Lord is this the way you want me to pray?

Outside some rain fell very lightly and we were told by the TV station that not much rain would fall. So I asked my Creator - the maker of all weather. I said Lord if you want me to pray in this area please let thunder roar so loud and let lightning light up my kitchen window. As I was standing looking towards the window, no sooner than my words came out, did thunder roared so loudly. My two lounge windows shook so fiercely and the lightning lite up my kitchen windows. As I stared as if in a trance. I felt the thunder come upon me as if it engulfed me.

Wow! Wow! The Lords timing is perfect, but he does not always answer straight away. Hello it blew me away, as it were. There was a reason. He wanted me to pray that way for my second son. Always be ready and obedient when He calls you. He always has a plan and purpose for each of His children, amen! When the Lord answers you instantly it's something you never forget. I stand in awe of Him the Great King. Be encouraged as you hear these stories and praise the God of the universe for one day He might call your name and tell you He has something special for just you to do. Maybe it's to help others with the gifts He's put in you. Would you be ready my friend? I pray that you will. God bless you.

The Canoe That Didn't Tip Over

Jesus was in the boat with his disciples while the storm rage around them. They were fearful but Jesus spoke to the storm and it stopped.

Our daughter was going on one of her many school excursions. At that that time she had not learnt to swim. It was my fault, as I did not want her to go near the water. I always discouraged her finding excuses not to let her go. One day my daughter came home saying that all the school had to go on canoes across the lake.

I let out a sigh. Oh no I did not want to let her go. The day my daughter headed out the door to go to her excursion, I lifted my face towards heaven and cried oh my Father God please keep her safe. Amen. That day dragged on like it was never going to end.

About eleven o'clock I felt very uneasy so I started to pray big time for my little girl. At the end of my prayer I kept on in the presence of my God. By then I knew that my Jesus, God's Son, had kept my little girl safe and she would run through the door with a story to tell.

Well you guessed it! Yes my daughter surely had a story to share. "Mum! Mum!" she cried as she came running to the door. "Hello, I knew you were praying around eleven o'clock. She continued, "That morning the children all had to go into their canoes," I asked Jesus to help me mum. As I got into the last one it was around eleven o'clock and we were all heading out. One by one all the canoes tipped over, but mum, the one I was in did not tip over, or bend, or any thing." Praise the Lord.

"Mum I knew you were praying at that time." Thank you Jesus. "Jesus loves the little children doesn't he mum." Yes darling," I replied, "and He knew that you couldn't swim. Readers our daughter of course is a grown woman now and is a very good swimmer. My daughter knew her Jesus and she prayed that day as well as I had.

The last shall be first. The Lords words. My daughter was in the last canoe. Do you think that was by chance? No our Jesus would have taken my daughter by the hand and led her into the last canoe. I pray this will be a blessing to some of you mums and your little ones God bless all who read this.

A Childs Faith

The Answered Prayer

Hi friends. I hope this finds you at peace. Today's story is about our son, who at the time was about nine years of age. He was getting ready for school and making sure I heard what he wanted, he asked. "Mum could i have a pocket knife please." He had asked me before. I had always said, "no son your too young." This day I said ask your Heavenly Father and pointed up to the heavens. I smiled to myself and said, "I got out of that alright."

My son replied with a grin "Okay I will." As he went out the door, I thought no more about it. I went on my way. The day was an ordinary day like many others we all have. Before long, school was out and I heard our son before I saw him. "Mum, Mum," he was shouting and holding some thing in his hands.

Friends I could not believe what I saw. He was holding a pocket knife. This is what he said,"When I left home, I did ask my Heavenly Father if I could have the knife. I was walking down the same track as always, and I stepped on some thing hard and shinning."

When I picked it up, it was the knife - the pocket knife. I was stunned. Readers I was really stunned. You see on the knife was writing. It read God answers prayers. Well what do you think about that?

As if that wasn't enough, the next week the same thing happened again. This time the message read "The Lord is my Shepherd." That little boy has never forgotten that. Of course he is now a grown man he never forgets that his Heavenly Father was there for him. If you are wondering how those knifes got there, he feels the angels put them under his feet by Gods command. I think that too. No other children at that school had any thing like them.

Our Heavenly Father answered a little boys prayer, letting him know that he was there and that he cares. Amen! God also knows and cares about you my friends.

Saving a Toddlers Life

The importance of knowing the voice of the Holy Ghost

Hi friends. I'm praying that today will find you all well and happy. Today's story will take you back with me in time. It all began when I used to go power walking with my best friend the Holy Ghost.

While on my walk, he would teach me many things along the way. In those days I was pretty new with things of the spirit, but he would gently take my hand and tell and show me what he wanted me to know.

For fourteen years straight, during winter, summer, spring and autumn you would find me out there every day walking and talking with my best friend. I would do this six and some times seven days a week. Amen.

This day started out like any other day. I would walk for an hour, then turn around and walk back so my walk would be two hours a day, every day. Hallelujah. As I was putting my shoes on this day, I looked at the clock and it was quarter to four. Although I was ready, I decided that I would leave at four o'clock, Hello! Yes, you guessed it! My best friend had other ideas. He prompted me to go now. The message was very strong.

So off we went, my God and I. I went along the same route as I always did, but my eyes caught sight of some thing that for a second made my blood chill. A little boy about two years or less was about to step onto the busy highway. The traffic was busy - non-stop.

As I grabbed him my heart skipped about a million beats. Praise the Lord as I held this little one in my arms, I just thanked God that he prompted me at that time. I was gobsmacked that he was on his own. Where were his parents?

Hello! My God had the answers. Normally there were people all around walking and riding bikes. Usually there was a lot of action but on this day not a soul was a round - just the loud and noisy traffic.

This day was a divine appointment planned by the Almighty God for me. You once again may ask where was his parents? Where was any body? I looked around. My eyes then fell on the fence where I saw a little hole.

I climbed through with the little and soon found my self on the other side. There were some people sitting outside the house. They started pointing and shouting when they saw me. A lad about fifteen years of age came over to us snatching the little one from me saying did you find him on the road again?

When he marched back to the others I know that my God wanted me to save his life. I have wondered over the years what did happen to him. Maybe he loves my God and is helping others doing the Lord's work. What do you think readers? I know when I get to heaven I will find out. Bye for now. Praying you will pass on what you have learnt from the King of Kings.

The Perfect Gift

Father God gave his only begotten son, Jesus Christ, to die for you and me. John 3:16.

Hi friends. I hope you are ready for a wonderful story again today. It begins with my cousin having a birthday celebration. Once more I asked my wonderful best friend the Holy Spirit what to get her that she will love.

He led me to a different shopping centre. This will blow your mind. Hello! I felt him lead me to a womens clothes shop. I looked at this and that. As I was pondering He had me to pick up two beautiful fluffy tops - one white and one black. As I asked the Lord which one to get, He showed me the black one.

So feeling really great, I bought it and I could not wait to go and give it to her. As she opened up her present, she let out a scream. "You are not going to believe this," she cried. "You brought this at such and such place didnt you?" I said "yes."

My friends what she told me next was amazing. How can I tell you how I felt as she explained that the day before she was at that same shopping centre, in the same shop, holding that same black top waiting in line to purchase it. As the line was long and her boys were getting restless, she put it back and said to the Lord "I would love this but I have to go." Taking her boys back home she felt dissappointed.

Our God knows and cares about every thing in our lives. What an awesome heavenly Father. Knowing and caring and feeling her heart, He wanted to make that right for her. So He sent one of his helpers to make that right for her.

I feel so blessed to be a part of Gods work. Would you like to come on board? Look to see what lies in store for you? I can't tell this story, and all the others, without crying and shouting to the world that we are so blessed with a Creator, the only Creator of the universe, who is there for mankind. So I ask you to come and enjoy all His glory as it covers the whole world. Leaving you now. Come to Jesus. Until next time. Bye for now. God bless.
