We wanna wish you a merry Christmas
We wanna wish you a merry Christmas
We wanna wish you a merry Christmas
From the bottom of our hearts!

On Eagle's Wings

 ♪♫ You who dwell in the shelter of the Lord,
Who abide in His shadow for life,
Say to the Lord, "My Refuge,
My Rock in Whom I trust."
And He will raise you up on eagle's wings,
Bear you on the breath of dawn,
Make you to shine like the sun,
And hold you in the palm of His Hand ♪♫

The Book of Job Explained

Sharing this video with you all regarding the book of Job. Please take time to watch & listen to the message, warning and lessons. May the Holy Spirit open our spiritual eyes to God's heart for us.

The Book of Job is one of the most misunderstood books in the Bible. Here's an attempt to clear that up by offering a different perspective than most people know today. The traditional surface understanding doesn't make sense with scripture or the actual text. This new approach will clear up several misconceptions.

The Atheist Delusion

“The simple things are also the most extraordinary things, and only the wise can see them.” “By three methods we may learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; and third by experience, which is the bitterest.”
 
[Psalm‬ ‭8:3-4‬ ‭NIV‬‬] “When I consider your heavens, the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set in place, what is mankind that you are mindful of them, human beings that you care for them?"

My Faith Votes

Your Christian faith is under fire in this people's vote on marriage.

Redefining marriage will have consequences for:

• your religious freedom
• your free speech
• your children's education in schools - allowing radical gay sex education programs to become widespread and compulsory, where parents can't say 'no'
  

Your vote "NO" is a vote for religious freedom, free speech and to protect the rights of parents to determine the education of their kids.

Too Easy

“Ah, Sovereign Lord, You have made the heavens and the earth by Your great power and outstretched arm. Nothing is too hard for You." [Jeremiah 32:17 NIV]

Better than Life

[Psalm 63:2-5]
"I have seen you in the sanctuary
and beheld your power and your glory.
Because your love is better than life,
my lips will glorify you.
I will praise you as long as I live,
and in your name I will lift up my hands.
I will be fully satisfied as with the richest of foods;
with singing lips my mouth will praise you."

Glorious Time Alone

Ahhhh... glorious uninterrupted ALONE time...

My lil' girl is in school and my wonderful hubby took our lil' boy with him to do some grocery shopping.

This is SURELY one for the books! ^_^

As I was savoring this fine occasion, I realize that this has been the single moment that I had some alone time (literally) all to myself since we moved back to Brissy.  Given the work hours of my hubby due to the nature of his trade and having two young and active children, I AM NEVER ALONE.  You have no idea how much I enjoyed the 45minutes I laid on the sofa bed, SLOWLY consuming my fruit yogurt while watching MY kind of tv show.

There is such great comfort in moments like these when all is well with my world and it is just revolving in an unhurried relaxed way.

Thank You, Lord, for blessings, renewed strength and such a thoughtful husband <3


♪♫ In moments like these, I sing out a song
I sing out a love song to Jesus
In moments like these, I lift up my hands
I lift up my hands to the Lord

Singing I love You, Lord
Singing I love You, Lord

I love You ♪♫

Changes in Citizenship

My family and I are blessed to call Australia our home for the last 8 years. Our journey to acquire our Permanent Residency status has been hard-won due to the tremendously painful, laborious and financially exhausting circumstances we had to go through to abide by the Australian laws. And just when we thought it's smooth sailing from thereon, we get stunned with distressing news that seem to paint a picture of an even more arduous path to Citizenship. We implore the Australian government and Malcolm Turnbull to please abide by your word and your promises to us current PR residents to the path you originally laid down for us towards Australian citizenship. God bless us all!

Exciting Everyday

"Sometimes, just looking at our everyday routine in a new way can stimulate us. If we have the same routine everyday and we're bored of it, we're never gonna speak about it with interest. But if we're able to view our routine in an interesting or exciting way.. It's understanding where the excitement is in your everyday. There is excitement to be found in every life if we know where to find it. Stimulate yourself before you worry about doing it for somebody else because if you are not entertained, you will not be entertaining." -Matthew Hussey

Majesty

♪♫ Here I am, humbled by your majesty,
Covered by your grace so free.
Here I am, knowing I'm a sinful man,
Covered by the blood of the lamb

Now I've found the greatest love of all is mine,
Since You laid down Your life,
The greatest sacrifice

Majesty, Majesty
Your grace has found me just as I am
Empty handed but alive in Your hands

Here I stand humbled by the love that You give,
Forgiven so that I can forgive.
So here I stand,
Knowing that I am Your desire,
Sanctified by glory and fire.
And now I've found the greatest love of all is mine,
Since You laid down Your life,
The greatest sacrifice

Majesty, Majesty.
Your grace has found me just as I am,
Empty handed but alive in your hands.
Singing Majesty, Majesty.
Forever I am changed by Your love,
In the presence of Your Majesty ♪♫

The Way of Love

[Ephesians 5:1-2 NIV]

"Follow God’s example, therefore, as dearly loved children and walk in the way of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God."
