"She's completely alone. She is heartbroken. She's about to go and bury her very last family member. This is not only painful, but she realises that her life is about to change for the worse. She has no money, no income, no rights and her livelihood that depended solely on a male relative has disappeared. She slowly but gracefully tries to compose herself and is grateful for the life she was able...

"Exactly!" Miriam interrupted. "That is what I thought – God has spoken through me, and he has definitely spoken through you. Why is it then that only Moses gets acknowledged?" Aaron shrugged. "And furthermore," She said, "His words shouldn't always be trusted." "What do you mean?" Aaron frowned. "He's not a great judge of character, is he? Don't you know who he married? Hah!" Miriam placed a hand...

"Finally, the man stopped, "You have nothing of value." He said gruffly. She nodded, "When my husband died, he didn't leave us anything. We are too poor. I don't think we can pay you…" Her voice trailed off. "The debt will be paid!" He screeched. She hid her face into her hands, crouching low to avoid getting hit. Would he hit her? She wasn't sure – all she knew was that he was enraged. Slowly she...

I softened my voice, "It's just that each time you lied to me it makes me feel like I don't matter. It makes me feel like a woman of the streets!" I lowered my head and tears dropped down my face. Samson hated tears. Specially mine. "Oh Delilah…" He cried taking me in his arms. Good. I had him where I wanted him. "So, my love." I whispered, "what is the secret of your strength?" "His eyes flickere...

"It was early afternoon when I looked out the window again to see how things were faring. The crowds were dissolving and merchants with their makeshift tents were heading home. Suddenly, something caught my eye and I leaned over the window a little further. Two strange men were entering our city gates – they tried to look inconspicuous but to me they looked suspicious. Their head were slightly low...

"Who is the man coming our way?" My stomach does a little flip flop as I see him approaching from across the fields. He looks very handsome! Broad shoulders, tall, tan. Could that be? I can only hope. The old servants eyes follow mine and he smiles, crinkles drawing shapes on his aged face and his smile broadens, "it's master Isaac!" He exclaims looking as proud as a peacock. My heart suddenly tak...

"She approached the owner of the store in a most humble manner and asked if he would let her charge a few groceries. She softly explained that her husband was very ill and unable to work, they had seven children and they needed food. John Longhouse, the grocer, scoffed at her and requested that she leave his store. Visualizing the family needs, she said: Please, sir! I will bring you the money jus...

"Telemachus watched with horror as people died, battles raged and the crowds cheered. Prompted into action, this bald headed, robed figure found his way onto the arena floor. He ran toward two gladiators locked in battle, grabbed one of them and pulled him away. He exhorted the two gladiators to abandon their murderous sport. He appealed to the crowd to not to break God's law by murdering. The res...

"I believe that God does protect us from evil and we are safe under his wings. No matter what kind of trouble we get into, God never leaves us alone. He has a solution to every difficulty we face. If God could help Daehne escape from the snake, don't you think he can help you overcome your problem? Just take it to him – he will give you the peace to accept his will and you will be able to move for...

"Jesus said that the greatest commandment in the Old Testament was, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul and mind" (in Matthew)  The second commandment was, "Love your neighbour as yourself" (Matthew 22:39)  So, when we think of love, we usually think it's about feelings – but the real love (like Betsie in the story) is not depended on our feelings. It's more than how we cou...

"As daughters of God we have to stand firm in our faith – believing that God will be there for us no matter what circumstances we find ourselves in. God's word is flawless, right and true. His word are the verses we read in the bible – that's how he talks to us – through his promises. Sometimes, I'm sure you feel that God has failed you because things seem to be going bad in your life. But, that i...

It was so sad. Meeka truly wanted to be accepted, to belong. To be something more than what the others told her that she was. I'm sure she had dreams (if chickens have dreams) of being just 'one of the girls' but her desires never became more than what they were – desires. She learned to keep her distance to survive. The reality that the others projected upon her became the way she thought about h...

Lie #4 'My worth is defined by how I look!' Do you feel believe that?

Lie #3  'I am alone with my feelings of sadness, loneliness or despair. It is a common feeling to have bad days or times when we can feel a bit hopeless or that our life is lacking direction or focus. But the biggest lie we can believe is that we are alone in these feelings; that no-one else ever feels this way. The truth is, we ALL experience difficult seasons and have tough days or weeks. The pr...

Lie #2'I've stuffed up badly, made the worst mistake - I can never be forgiven and move on.' This is an ultimate LIE! The truth is, we ALL make mistakes. We all stuff up occasionally; even often! It's true that sometimes we can make really silly and dangerous decisions, but you need to remember that we are all human. Cut yourself a break! Anyone can stuff up, make poor choices, say the wrong thing...

Today's lie 1 is: 'I'll never find the perfect guy for me or my happiness depends on a guy! This is one of the most common lies that girls/women often believe. You see, we were never created to live alone, and I truly believe that God does not desire any of us to live life alone. However, having a boyfriend or a special guy in your life doesn't define you and it certainly doesn't make you more or...

"The idea of delighting ourselves in God means we make Him the most important thing in our life. When He is the number one desire, He will give Himself to us. When we have God, we have all we need." So before any other desire our first desire should rest completely in God. And we come back what we've been saying for many episodes. We spend time in his word We pray We spend quiet time listening to...

Everyone has goals in life – we all have dreams and things we want to accomplish. I believe that God does answer our hearts desires but only in his timing and according to his will. Sometimes we want something but it's not his will because he sees beyond that and knows if it will be good or bad for us. There is something that you can do to help you as you wait for him to answer your desires. Pray...

When you pray great things can happen – Through prayer someone can be healed. Through prayer someone can be saved from an accident. Through prayer someone can get a job. Through prayer demon posed people have been f...

"A month after I had turned 15, my mother left for the United States in pursuit of a 21 year old man she met online; leaving behind myself, my brother, and sister to fend for ourselves with my grandmother. I've lived with my grandmother my whole life, but she's always been old and frail; incapable of taking care of 3 young children. We all waited, eagerly anticipating my mother's return after 3 mo...

"So we want things fast – fast food, fast internet, fast relationships, fast cars, fast traffic – no traffic jam etc. Sometimes don't have much patience and the way we react if things are taking longer than usual is with anger.  We get frustrated, angry and stressed. Patience does not come overnight – we really do needs God's power and his goodness to develop this character trait. In the bible the...
