W@W WRAP - Week 296: ARE YOU PREPARED AND READY?

W@W WRAP - Week 297: WHERE DOES OUR HELP COME FROM?

It has been said, "If you don't have a trial today, you had one yesterday, or you will have one tomorrow!" That sounds very negative, right? However, the good news is: Even though what we face today may seem like a mountain too high to climb, or a valley too dark and deep to walk through, there is HOPE. Our Lord knows exactly what we are facing, and He is with us right now. So, why would we ever trust in a lesser power than our loving Lord? Why don't we just lift our eyes to the One that watches over us – the One who guards our going out and our coming in? (Psalm 121)

W@W WRAP - Week 298: ARE YOU FILLED TO OVERFLOWING?

We are all filled with something…. It is either the cares and concerns of the world, or the love, peace and light of Jesus. It can’t be both. Our Lord tells us over and over in His Word that the choices we make have consequences in our earthly lives, in the lives of others, and in the life everlasting. Jesus knows that we have challenges in this world. Yet, He invites us to allow Him to fill our cups (our innermost being) to overflowing with His presence –  that is where we will find rest for our souls and the courage to walk wisely in obedience to His will. (Matthew 11:28-30 and John 7:38)

W@W WRAP - Week 299: PURPOSE IN THE PROCESS!

You have possibly experienced going to an optometrist or eye doctor – whether for a test, glasses, contacts, or surgery to restore your eyesight to what they call 20/20 vision. That is 'normal vision' in which a person can see an object clearly from 20 feet away. Today, let's consider what we will call  50/20 vision. In Genesis 50:20, Joseph looks back over things that happened throughout his life, and sees how God worked even the negative experiences for good. There is always purpose in the process. What is your perspective of your past, and of today; and how do you see your tomorrows? May we always stand in awe of our amazing Heavenly Father and count our blessings one by one! (Genesis 50:15-21)

W@W WRAP - Week 300: FILLED WITH AWE!

I'm sure you have been challenged at one time or another to be filled with 'faith' and not with 'fear'. But what exactly does that mean? Today, let's consider what 'fear' is in our lives, and how we can be filled with faith – that awe and respect for God that indeed transcends understanding. This faith foundation helps us to be constantly filled with absolute awe towards our Lord. As a result, we are able to seek and find His tender grace towards us, and we experience the richness of His power and love in every situation. (1 John 4:18, Psalm 33:8 and Acts 2:43)

W@W Kids WRAP 51 – The Fruit of the Spirit: Love

When the Holy Spirit comes to live in our hearts, we bear His fruit — the Fruit of the Spirit. The first of these fruits is love, and we must live love!

 

God's love for us is so great that He sent His son Jesus to die for us. He also wants us to love others the way that He loves us. Sometimes it's hard, but that's why we have the Holy Spirit helping us!

 

"But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law." (Galatians 5:22-23)

W@W Kids WRAP 51 – Die Vrug van die Gees: Liefde

As die Heilige Gees in ons harte kom woon, dra ons Sy vrugte – die Vrug van die Gees. Die eerste van hierdie vrugte is liefde. Ons moet liefde uitleef!

 

God se liefde vir ons is so groot dat Hy Sy seun, Jesus gestuur het om vir ons te sterf. Hy wil ook hê dat ons, ons naaste moet liefhê soos wat Hy ons liefhet. Soms is dit moeilik, maar daarom het ons die Heilige Gees wat ons help!

 

“Maar die vrug wat die Gees voortbring, is liefde, vreugde, vrede, geduld, vriendelikheid, goedheid, getrouheid, sagmoedigheid en selfbeheersing. Teen sulke dinge is daar nie ‘n wet nie.” (Galasiërs 5:22-23)

W@W WRAP - Week 301: LOVING THOSE IN YOUR PATH!

Do you ever wonder exactly who your neighbour is? Is it the people who live beside you, to the right or to the left? Is it the person in the next cubical at work or the one next to you on the screen in your online group? Our Lord Jesus makes it very clear. Our neighbour is the person in our path right at this moment! Scholars have wanted a specific answer to this question for years. Jesus' answer is an earthly story with a heavenly meaning – and at its core is love! (Luke 10:25-37)

WOW WRAP - Week 302: CHOICES!

Do you ever feel bombarded with choices? From sun-up to sun-down… ‘Do I accomplish this task, or focus on this element of my 'to-do' list?’ ‘Do I go to this place or that?’ ‘Do I spend time quietly with Jesus now or not?’ ‘Do I spend time with others?’ ‘Do I speak or remain silent when faced with a prickly issue?’ Questions and choices everywhere! Our answers determine our days. Indeed, our answers and how we respond affect not only ourselves and our circumstances, but other people too. How should we respond? As in all things, let's look to the Word of God. (Luke 10:38-42)

W@W WRAP - Week 303: WHAT’S IN A NAME?

When you were born, your mom and dad gave you a name. When someone calls that name, you look to hear what they have to say to you! People know you by your name! How exciting that Our Lord has many names, all of which reflect His character and being. Those names reassure us about who He personally wants to be in our lives! He says of Himself: “I AM WHO I AM, God Almighty, your Provider, your Comforter, your Refuge and Strength, your Deliverer, your Salvation, your Hope, your Friend who never leaves you, the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End…” and so much more! (Genesis 17:1 & Exodus 3:14)
