Don’t be anxious!

Sue’s Views
Let’s face it! The world is in serious trouble! There is much to be concerned about. The media keeps us up to date on the latest disasters ….. crimes ….. and injustices ….. and the outlook is bleak to say the least. But nothing is new under the sun! In Jesus day ….. people were facing a tyrannical government ….. poverty ….. sickness and social injustice. That’s why He so often told them ‘Do not be anxious about your life. Look at the lillies of the field! They don’t have to worry. Their Heavenly Father takes care of them.’ And He will take care of you too! This is a time to trust Him.

How’s Your Heart?

Sue’s Views
How is your heart? Is it soft and pliable ….. or has it been hardened by the circumstances of life? No matter what state your heart is in ….. offer it to God. He is the Potter ….. we are the clay. If you are willing ….. He will take that hard heart in His wonderful hands and soften it. He will remove all the hard lumps ….. all the hurt and doubts ….. all the resentment and bitterness ….. and mould it into something beautiful and useful. When He has your heart ….. He has all of you!

Living Stones

Sue’s Views
There are 7.8 billion people on the planet ….. and yet no two are identical! Even ‘identical twins’ have some unique characteristics. And then ….. when you consider all those who have passed on since time began ….. the numbers are countless. Some would say there is no designer ….. we are all a product of an explosion. But everything in nature tells us otherwise! No two leaves are the same ….. no two blades of grass ….. no two flowers. What a Creator! The Bible calls us ‘living stones that God is building into His spiritual temple’. He wants to live in us! How amazing is that!

Fruitfulness

Sue’s Views

This is a picture of abundant life. The trees might look dead and lifeless ….. but there’s so much going on on the inside. In another few months they’ll be vibrant with leaves and laden with fruit. We all go through times of dryness and feeling unproductive but know this ….. your ‘season’ is coming too!

Winter Wonders

It’s mid winter here in New Zealand ….. and yesterday was our coldest day so far this year. Jack Frost definitely visited! Harsh circumstances sometimes seem to come out of nowhere to bite us. But ….. as we all know ….. ‘What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger’! If you are going through a ‘winter season’ ….. hang in there! God may be using this time to destroy some of the ugly bugs that are attacking you. A new season is coming!

Holy Spirit

We can’t see the wind ….. but we know it exists by the movement of grass and trees. So it is with God’s Spirit. He is constantly moving ….. clearing obstacles from your path ….. changing the spiritual atmosphere around you ….. dealing with your enemies. Not everything has to be seen to be believed! You can trust Him!

Jehovah Jireh

Did you know that God thought of you before the world was created? In fact He created the world ….. and everything in it ….. so you and I would have a place to live and enjoy! That means He provided everything we would ever need to live a productive and healthy life. He provided food to eat ….. medicine when our bodies get out of balance ….. work so we could reproduce crops. He also gave us wisdom and creativity to make new things out of what He created. He is ….. and always will be our Jehoveh Jireh ….. our provider. We don’t need to fear the future. He is already there!

Intro

Hi! My name is Sue Wilson and I am a mother of three and grandmother of 10! My husband, Frank, and I have been Christians for 43 years. We pastored a church in Fiji and are now Pastor/Elders in our local church. One of my passions is Prayer/Counselling to help people deal with the lies of the devil so they can be who God created them to be.

 

A few years ago I felt God inspired me to write some short but encouraging messages on Facebook. Most of my inspiration comes while walking in nature ….. but also everyday life experiences! I hope you, too, will be encouraged. We live in uncertain but interesting times ….. and our faith will be tested. My aim is to help you see things through God’s eyes ….. and to be led by His Spirit in our everyday lives. I always welcome feedback and questions.

 

May God bless you on your journey
