A Faithful Keeper


This is another gentle reminder for anyone who struggles, for anyone who thinks their resolve to stand firm in the faith is being stretched thin. It is for anyone who feels they are hanging on to a rope that's slowly breaking.

Here is your gentle reminder:

1 Thessalonians 5 : 23-24: Now may the God of peace HIMSELF sanctify you completely,  and may your whole body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.  He who calls you is faithful, He will surely do it. (emphasis mine)


Keep trusting and believing in God to sanctify you completely. He will do it as you obey Him and let Him guide you.

Amen.

Love,

"Life-lines"

“Go on, be a go-getter!” “Good things come to those who wait”. “Be sensitive and tender-hearted” “Be tough and thick-skinned!”. “Successful people do not sleep! They burn the midnight oil” “You need about 8 hours of sleep to be productive”. “Put yourself out there. Grab life by the horns. Go hard!” “Take it easy. One step at a time, Rome was not built in a day”. “Live life to the full and don’t look back” “Take time to reflect, life is  best seen in hindsight”. “Stay hungry” “Be satisfied with what you've got”. It seems to me that there is so much advice out there about how to live life. When presented as a collection of punchy phrases they seem a contradictory bunch, don’t they? The truth is I don’t think anyone really knows the formula to live a happy life. Really, how could we know when we are all having our first go at this? As a lady in her 20s, it’s not unusual that I spend a lot of time trying to figure out what I must do...

Another gentle reminder

Dear Reader, Read Genesis 35 v 3: Then come, let us go up to Bethel, where I will build an altar to God, who answered me in the day of my distress and who has been with me wherever I have gone. ” "...God,  who answered me in the day of my distress and who has been with me wherever I have gone. ” God is faithful to His promise. He will never leave nor forsake those who trust in Him. Love, FeyVored

Carrying on from the previous post , this post is about where to get courage against despair. I am no counsellor or therapist; I write from personal experience. I have also come to learn from research that many share similar opinions as I do which have helped them as well.   Depression causes one to feel alone in the dark; the cloak of gloom never lifts and it traps you from seeing anything in life as good, enjoyable, dependable or worth it. For many, there is a heavy feeling of shame and worthlessness and that you have nothing to offer this world. It is really difficult to go through this nearly every day and some have tried to find freedom by ending their own lives. My interactions with people who have made suicide attempts have showed me that many regret the decision. I heard of one man who jumped off a bridge and survived. But his thoughts when he let go of the railings were “What have I done?”, “I don’t want to die”. Each of us have a fighting spirit that wants to live...
