My Favourite Hymn For My Birthday Today

 

O God, my Help in ages past

My Hope for years to come

My Shelter from the stormy blast

And my Eternal Home

Beneath the Shadow of Thy Throne

Thy son has dwelt secure

Sufficient is Thine Arm alone

And my Defence is sure

Before the hills in order stood

Or earth received her frame

From everlasting Thou art God

To endless years the same

A thousand ages in Thy sight

Are like an evening gone

Short as the watch that keeps the night

Before the rising sun

Time like an ever rolling stream

Bears all its sons away

They fly forgotten as a dream

Dies at the opening day

O God my Help in ages past

My Hope for years to come

Be Thou my Guard while troubles last

And my Eternal Home

He Is Always By My Side

My friends

Last night, when I put my head on the pillow after the day's activities, it did not take 5 minutes and I was off to the unknown land.

In one of the places I visited in my sleep, I was actively involved in the people's lives, issuing instructions, directing, giving counsel, and generally being of service to them, I don't know how I managed to be there but I found myself there.

Of course I knew I was a stranger there, because my Lady was not with me there and I couldn't identify my family there but I was well accepted and received like I have been there all along.

I know that I am a service oriented person but serving people of different land and enclave, now that's a different matter all together.

Is there a pointer there??

Well God knows better

But one thing I noticed was that the inner voice that I already know is the God in me, never left me for a second. In all the directives I gave, in all the counsels I dished out, in the assistance I rendered to those people, He was always talking to me and telling me what to do and what to say, He was always by my side.

And then, when my tour of duty was over, He woke me up this morning

Oh glory!!!

How wonderful and marvelous this God is

I shall always serve Him no matter what comes my way!!!

My People, my People

It is morning now, and behold all things are fresh. I can feel the cool gentle renewing breeze blowing my way from the richly flowered garden. I can smell the sweet fragrance of the flowers, I feel alive again, I am just in love with life - oh dear!!!!!

I am certainly refreshed (what a beauty this sleep is) and I can go the whole hog today with this refreshment.

A new  morning is here heralding a new day which is the commencement of a new working week and you know what, I am certain that my God would always be by my side all through this day and this week.

A new morning is always a blessing and an opportunity to be renewed.

How about you?

Did you have a good night sleep?

Did you bring something back from your trips in your sleep?

Are you feeling refreshed this morning?

Talk to me, I surely would love to hear from you because I do CARE for you and believe me when I say so because I am a man of few words.

I am waiting to hear from you

And you have a beautiful day ahead

Cheers to a new day

Be Mindful Of Time

Greetings of the new day to all of you

Here’s hoping that you all woke up hale and hearty just like my family and I did this morning and for which we give God all the glory, thanksgiving, adoration and honour.

It is another new day meant for us. A day to set things aright, make new friends, rekindle old friendships, renew marriage vows, reach out to the poor and poorly, generally make some positive impact in the world around us.

Use the opportunity that today presents to do that one thing you have been meaning to do all this while but have not!!

Use today to take that initiative to be where you want to be, no one else can do it for you!!!!!

Remember that when today is gone, all the hues and cries over things that ought to have been done but were not done would be an exercise in futility, YOU CAN NEVER TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME.

Today is all that you have, that is why it is called “THE PRESENT” pray, use it well.

Live in the present

Every day as I always do, remind yourself that it is good to be alive

So, go make the most of it.

Have a great day

And I’ll see you on the morrow

Today

Bless and be Blessed

Remember that I love you as always!!!!!!!
