Luke 11.9 – “So I say to you: Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”

Yes, I know it’s me again.  You have heard a lot from me today.  I have not mastered the art of waiting yet, nor have I mastered the art of photography, painting or even writing! But the Lord is good.  Today is a good day for me. The sun is shining. The sky is blue. And I have a thankful heart.

Erika the lady I am staying with – her husband is doing OK after his major surgery yesterday. Hallelujah. He’s resting well. The Lord has been good to this family and blessed me with a safe refuge when I got to stay in their home at such short-notice.  They have been a huge blessing to me.

I received an e-mail today. I have been officially accepted to start training to become a counsellor! I can still hardly believe it.  That it will actually happen! In a month’s time I will start a three year journey to become a fully qualified and accredited Christian counsellor.  I have prayed about this for over two years now, and the Lord has answered my prayers. For a long time I had to wait. I didn’t know how to proceed, and perhaps last year and the previous year it wasn’t the right timing?  Maybe all this waiting was preparation for what is to come. Today I have a thankful heart.

Today I feel like I am finally going in the right direction with my life. It doesn’t mean that I am still out of the woods, but I can see the Lord’s hand in this, and for that I am thankful. Thank you Jesus! Praise the Lord.
