My Journey Into Happiness & Godliness

One of the main reasons I have set up this blog is to gather advice and information on how I can be guided through my Journey into Christianity. "We need others around us who know Jesus. Who want God to influence their lives", "The Spiritual Starter Kit" Lesson # 5 - The value of other believers.

I am not perfect nor do I want to be, I am not here to change the world, or the way people think. I am just here to be happy and put the past behind me, wash away all the pain and view the world differently to the way I see it today. I want to be happy in no matter what I do, feel completeness and at peace with the world and admire all the beautiful things it has to offer me, my family and all my beautiful friends. I know this can happen it is just a matter of believing!

Please, I urge you to join my site and welcome any thoughts you may have or advice that will help me on my way! This site would not work without your input. Please note I am dyslexic, so, if anyone wishes to volunteer to edit my posts, by all means feel free.

It is amazing how god puts amazing people into your path to guide you and support you through life. I am very sad to say good bye to my Vicar at church he has been wonderful and the church is now my new family I have desperately wanted all my life. I would be lost without them.

I dedicate the follwoing song to Antony and wish him all the success in his new job/future and all the peole he will meet, guide and suppport.

You will be greatly missed by the Forster family and St John's congregation. God Bless Antony.

Sailing away into serenity

Well, it's not far down to paradise, at least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away and find tranquility
Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see.
Believe me.

It's not far to never-never land, no reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy of innocence again
Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see.
Believe me.

[Chorus]
Sailing takes me away to where I've always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free

Fantasy, it gets the best of me
When I'm sailing
All caught up in the reverie, every word is a symphony
Won't you believe me?

[Chorus]

Well it's not far back to sanity, at least it's not for me
And if the wind is right you can sail away and find serenity
Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see.
Believe me.
I just heard this song on the radio on the way home, I the sounds up full blast and the windows down in the car. This song made me feel all emotional and I shed a few tears. Such a Beautiful song.

Romans 8:18

Sometimes Life and the best gift that God can give, doesn't always get the best start!

Romans 8:18 ESV / 68 helpful votes
For I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the glory that is to be revealed to us.

A very very strong message from the heavens through my own sister.

This is indeed very strange and spooky. My sister does not believe in God. Yet I only just realised today that she had posted a song on my FB which I clicked on today! It is not just a song, the music is what I played over and over, day after day, when I found out my father died. The video is of this song with words from God along with pictures of the beautiful mountains that Ben and I climb.

Lets just say I have not stopped crying. AS I was listening and reading I thought the word were inspirational and as it went on I thought could it really be from God or even from my father up in heaven? No don't be silly, then at the end it said these are from God.

It is very powerful and meaningful to me I am in a bit of shock.

Can We Trust God? Our Journey to Many Children by raising Olives

Can We Trust God? Our Journey to Many Children

"Before our marriage Mark and I decided to trust God with planning our family. We would allow Him to bless us with children when and how He wished.

However, after the very difficult birth that we experienced with Matthew, Mark and I began to doubt. God had blessed us with 3 children in two and a half years. With each pregnancy I experienced significant morning sickness well past the traditional first 12-14 week range. Now I was still recovering from a difficult birth and I was tired and overwhelmed with our houseful of toddlers. We certainly couldn’t handle another child as close together as the first three had been."

Scripture Verses

Philippians 4:4-7 New Living Translation (NLT) 4 Always be full of joy in the Lord. I say it again—rejoice! 5 Let everyone see that you are considerate in all you do. Remember, the Lord is coming soon. 6 Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. 7 Then you will experience God’s peace, which exceeds anything we can understand. His peace will guard your hearts and minds as you live in Christ Jesus.
Tiredness ... but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31
(2 Timothy 3:16). So, it makes sense for us to carry God's Word in our hearts through memorization, to be ready to face any problem, every difficulty, and whatsoever challenge that life can send our way.
Proverbs 15:18 says: “A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger appeases contention.”
”A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.” (Proverbs 16:9)
“The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord … ”(Psalm 37:23)
“For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, says the Lord, thoughts of peace and not of evil, to give you a future and a hope.” (Jeremiah 29:11)

Useful Quotations

"'Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.' This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbour as yourself'" (Matthew 22:37-39)
Appreciate both the big things and the little things in life. Be grateful--even through the low points--remembering that the sweet would not be quite so sweet without the sour. (How to get the love of Christ -Wikihow)
Find the energy of God by getting in place to encourage yourself, accept and then pass on the blessings of man by the will of the Lord God so you are a peacemaker -- one of "the sons[/daughters] of God." (Matthew 5)

Useful Prayers

"Dear Father, I need You. I acknowledge that I have been directing my own life and that, as a result, I have sinned against You. I thank You that You have forgiven my sins through Christ's death on the cross for me. I now invite Christ to again take His place on the throne of my life. Fill me with the Holy Spirit as You commanded me to be filled, and as You promised in Your Word that You would do if I asked in faith. I now thank You for directing my life and for filling me with the Holy Spirit."
Prayer for Me and My Family May the mind of Christ, my Savour, live in me from day to day By his love and power controlling all I do and say. May the Word of God dwell richly in my heart from hour to hour, So that all may see I triumph only through his power. May the peace of God, my Father, rule my life in everything, That I may be calm to comfort sick and sorrowing. May I run the race before me, strong and brave to face the foe, Looking only unto Jesus as I onward go. -Kate B. Wilkinson 1859 – 1928
"I am sorry for my sin, all my wrong doing; I want to change, and I truly thank you for everything and that I am now forgiven and saved from the penalty for my sins as a free gift, in Jesus' name."
