    I AM FEELING A LOT BETTER ,THANKU FOR YOUR PRAYERS...


       I feel like a cat, I have had so many naps over the past weeks..
            
             I am sooo tired, first day that I've been out today really. I went to a prayer meeting, we had lunch. Went to visit a family that I am very fond of. accompanied a friend to a meeting about a local school closure. Ifelt so sad for the children,parents & teachers as they are fighting so hard to keep the school going. They were suggested to link with another school, seems thats a no go. The school takes people from multi-cultural backgrounds. The really sad thing is that local children boycott it.Yes it does have a poor grade system examwise. Local people should offer more support and send their children there, then it would bump up the grades and do better overall.
       I feel like I've done a marathon.  Fibro myalgia sucks. I feel better, over do it, feel like I've done ten rounds with Mike Tyson.. Hey ho..

                     
                            Off to bed for a long sleep zzzz

        I have just been watching America' got talent( still am, multitasking). I have to say that Donald Braswell was really good. I DON'T KNOW HOW FAR HE GETS AS HE ONLY JUST GOT THROUGH TO VEGAS SO PLEASE DON'T TELL ME. I am hopeful he may win ,though the little boy that did Ben was cool..I must say i miss American Idol, though the guy i picked to win only came second.. Eeew a guy just kissed a snake on America' got talent, why would someone want to do that !!!
      I would run for the hills if a snake come near me .. 


    I picked up a comfy rocking chair from a charity shop for £4 yesterday, so comfy to sit here writing this. I have been really struggling the past few weeks with the fibro myalgia, probably made worse with lifting & sorting boxes. Nice to be able to sit more comfy anyhow.
     
    Going to watch the movie Seven Pounds tonight.It's form the same guy who made The pursuit of Happiness, I loved that movie. I must confess I am a big Will Smith fan.

     I was invited to watch Phillipa Hannah tonight, she is at the Mega Centre, I used to go to a church there..She is a christian with a good testimony & a good voice. It's good to have a christian music event here as we don't get many compared to most places. It's much easier for secular singers/bands to get airplay & get known.Most of the music I have is secular, I must admit it doesn't get played much nowadays as I tend to listen to UCB radio mostly.

    Hope you all have a good weekend 

                           GOD BLESS

    THANKYOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS. ISSAC IS DOING BETTER, PLEASE KEEP HIM IN PRAYER FOR TOMORROW. THANKYOU...

    I am feeling tired as it has been a busy one. Though I am not complaining as it has been a lovely day. I spent the day , going to church then all afternoon in the park. The weather has been wonderful over the weekend. The family I showed in last but one post were with me and my sister in Christ , Shazia. I so loved spending the day with them, children are lovely when the weather is sunny as they can run around freely. There are a lot of Muslim mothers and children in the park where we were today. It is always a good opportunity to build relationships and get to know others..
      I love being a part of the Asian team in my home church. So many women are oppressed by Islaam. They don't go out alone , especially in the evenings. One lady told me that she can't use a razor and another said ,that during her menstruation time she cannot share the same bed as her husband or shower. These women need the "free will" that we take for granted. We christians are so fortunate to know Christ and the Gospel. Please add them to your prayers..

    I just love meadow flowers. I saw some on Angies blog, they gave me a lift. I don't usually like roses in a garden. I have some in my garden, such a lovely red. It's amazing how folwers lift us , though I guess we shouldn't be as God gave us such lovely flowers and other scenery. I like to think of them as God' paint box. Living in a city as I do, I yearn for the country. I live about a thirty minute drive away from the Peak District. If i could choose to live anywhere it would be in the countryside or on the coast..




     
     



                       

           

          


          

    Is our Lord the best painter ever.. Amen

    God is Good

      Please could u pray for my dear brother and sister in Christ ,Andy and Judith. Their son Issac is in hospital, he had an operation on his heart. Complications have took him in and out of intensive care. He is having an operation on monday to stop blood and fluid collecting on his lungs and around his heart. He knows Christ as his Savior. Please pray for healing and wisdom for the surgeons and us as a church family so we can all help to bring him through..

    praise Jesus our God, Holy spirit to bless us in times of need,
      for you created us and Heaven and earth
       and knitted us together in our mother' womb,
        You knew us before we were formed..
         Amen

      I have moved house..

    Boy is moving stressful ?  I am sooo thankful to my dear brother' & sister' in Christ. They help an awful lot. God is gracious. He knows our needs & provides. I neede a ground floor flat. I prayed as did my extended family for a new home where my needs would be met. He

    New home..Answer to prayer.
    Accessible..Answer to prayer.
    A garden..Answer to prayer.
    Help with the move..Answer to prayer.

    God will help in abundance, "Knock and the door will open.Ask and ye shall receive."
    Thankyou Father for making me a child of God.
    The garden needed work. My brother & I spent some quality time together whilst tackling the wilderness of a garden.
    He is always willing to help. He does so much to help me. I am sure God is working in him. I just know my prayers are heard. Only a few days ago my mother suggested we read a book together. The book is written by one of my friend'/brother in Christ Tim Chester. "The Ordinary Hero" is a good read, it points to the cross and resurrection. To quote the author, This book is about what it means to follow Christ who died and who was raised. How should the cross and resurrection shape our lives ?
    God is working and shaping in my life. I know that praying for my mother & brothers to accept Jesus into their lives would be an awesome gift. My family think they can get by without the Gospel. Faith in Him restores my faith in them hearing and accepting God' greatest gifts, forgiveness and love. Pointing us to the cross and giving us freedom from the chains that tie us to satan ,the world and death..  

       


    Thankyou  Dear Father for saving me and daily renewing and restoring my faith in You..  Amen

      I am feeling blessed. Yesterday I was walking to a friends house ,when branches fell from a tree. They landed at my feet. If that isn't divine intervention. The Lord I am sure was taking care of me. I would have said 8yrs ago that it was luck. I know better now. I have felt  much closer to Him recently. I am enjoying my ministry. Thanku for your prayers. I am doing ok healthwise also. I am a little tired . I have learned to listen to my body. I know that if I take timeout I am able to do so much more. My walk with Jesus is a pleasure. I was talking to a muslim lady with my Christian sisters last night. She was happy to hear the word. She really enjoed listening to stories form the Bible. I pray that she will come to faith. I shared a conversation with another muslim lady last week, she was amazed that I was so sure of my faith & my surety to one day dwell in Heaven. She was fearful that she would not go. She said she didn't think that she had done enough good things. I told her that faith & love would ensure her of an eternal place in Heaven & that good deeds should be done , but trusting God is enough. She was happy for me to pray for her. Often the Muslims I spend time with are happy for me to pray for or with them. If just one of the women we share the Gospel with comes to faith, then I know that will be a blessing. God is good & loves us all.

      I am happy to say that I have given chocolate up for lent. It's getting easier. Phew what a drug. I know that I was well & truly addicted !! I have craved it for the past 2yrs. Life will be hard for me without it !! Ok ok I don't need it !! Arrrrgh leave me alone easter bunny!!!The bunny is the image of my old bunny. Ok enough sillyness...

     God bless xx

                                                    Sunday was a lovely day. I had dinner with my mum & brother. I made a roast dinner with a turkey crown that had sat in my freezer since new year.
      My church family were gracious on my last day. They prayed over me for my new life with The British Asian team. I realised that I was'nt leaving, just transfering to pastures new. I know that this is just part of God' great plan. I know that moving is the right thing to do. We should listen more to our Father' voice & less to our own. He knows us better than we know ourselves, He knew us whilst in the womb. Our lives were charted before we were born.
      It was sad to leave , I relaise that was my comfort zone. Our lives as christian' means leaving the comfort zone. Sure I was Happy where I was. God wants me to be more than happy. He wants me to grow. Church planting means growth. I guess I've gone past the seedling stage. The song lyrics " You raise me up" comes to mind. I sure feel like I could stand on mountains, especially as I am scared of heights. Through Faith anything is possible. I need to trust God more. Let Him take the wheel.
      I did take pictures on sunday. Will post tomorrow. I realise that I have been blessed with such a church family. The have been there for me through some pretty tough times. I looked at the girls & realised how much they have grown. They are lovely girls & I can see the Lord' work in them all.  I will miss Bethany & Hannah, as I really enjoyed the bible study & crafts I did with them. As I said  they are growing up. Two of my dear sisters will guide them whilst they will join the older girls in their group.Belinda made me a gorgeous banana cake with special glitter.I need the recipe, though not the pounds.I am grateful for their blessings . I felt pretty special as I know that I am blessed with their love & prayers.I may sound morbid etc, but I'm not. I feel ready to continue my walk with my dear Abba.I will see them all every month as we have Re-union. Re-union is a gathering of the Edge and Sharrow network of The Crowded House . A time for catch up & where we can invite non-christians. It's a way of introducing our friends & families without the bible bashing.. Not that we would bash anyone with a bible ! An encyclopedia would hurt more as its heavier, though not as enlightening ..
    Ok I have jabbered enuff..Byeee.

    Hello Angelina,Sorry to hear your email has gone belly-up, it is frustrating to say the least! Not been on as much these past weeks, I decided to give it a rest for a while as I was getting headaches. Back on now but am going to rest my eyes every hour or so, it helps to reduce the strain therefor
