"The first step to getting the things you want out of life is this: Decide what you want." -Ben Stein

 

The Lord is saying.   You are underestimating the power and authority I have committed into your hands. Go and use what I have given you. Do not hide your talents and gifts I have entrusted you with. You have been listening to the enemy and worrying what people think. Do not be afraid of man, but be afraid of burying your talents.

 

Adventures in India

Our next day in Chennai was very restful for me. It rained very heavily and there was much flooding. The weather forecasts said that it would rain for two days solid. This would jeopardise our journey to the airport. Manasseh the most joyful faithful bus driver had prayed that the heavens would shut. This day I rested with a very bad cold.

At night we went to Joshua's church. We went through the crazy streets of Chennai on the church bus trying to miss the deep water that flooded the streets.

At the church we sang and preached.. It was so amazing for us because there were so many people that had been cursed by witches and we were asked to pray. We were anointing so many people and praying for them for ages. I had never seen the effects of witchcraft and voodoo like I did in Chennai.

Verrucae

I had a massive verruca on my foot, since 2002. Well, actually two close together so technically I should say verrucae . ...

Last year I decided enough was enough. I'd tried the lotions and potions and nothing was helping and I didn't fancy the cutting out or burning off.... sounds painful... ouch !!!.

I remembered when I was a young girl......that you could buy a little pot of pink cream that used to sort them out within no time, but the gel they make now instead just made a hard crust on the top but didn't sink in to kill the thing! Well that's what it seemed like to me.

So I did some research, it seems the substance that kills them is something called salicylic acid. More research showed me that was basically aspirin. So I crushed up 10 aspirin into powder and mixed it into some E45 cream in a little pot. I put it on my verrucae every night for about six weeks. Guess what....It worked!!! The whole thing came off and I just spent another week applying the cream just in case. That was last May/June and its never come back.

If you have a verruca and want to try it make sure that you only apply it to the verruca and not to surrounding skin if possible.

Know your Ten Commandments


Henry, who was very elderly, was unhappy because he had lost his favourite hat. Instead of buying a new one, he decided he would go to church and steal one out of the entrance porch when the worshippers were busy praying.When Henry arrived at the church an usher intercepted him at the door and took him to a pew where he had to sit and listen to the entire sermon on 'The Ten Commandments.'

After the service, Henry met the vicar in the vestibule doorway, shook his hand vigorously, and told him, 'I want to thank you Father for saving my soul today. I came to church to steal a hat and after hearing your sermon on the 10 Commandments, I decided against it.'

The vicar answered, 'You mean the commandment ' Thou shall not steal' changed your mind?'
'No, 'retorted Henry, 'the one about adultery did. As soon as you said that, I remembered where I had left my old hat.'
