The Lord's Theme For The Year

The Lord has crowned the year (2011) with His goodness and caused us to walk in His paths that drips with His fatness (Psalm 65:11)

Beware Fraudsters!

Last week I received two business proposals at my company email address, both reeking with suspicions right from the start.

Proposal 1
Father passed on and left him with a USD25 million fortune but estate can only be claimed outside his country and hence need external business partner to help him get the wealth...some of which is in gold! sounds familiar?

Proposal 2
Guy in UK wanted an external partner to be the middleman to buy a specialized oil that is used to clean diamonds (I did not realize there is such a thing) and because of the price differential he wants me to buy from North Korea (hmmm what do they know in North Korea except nuclear fuel!!) and Malaysia and resell back to his company and take a cut of the differences in pricing...Sounds a scam right from the start..the guy is an internal person and wants to cheat on his own company...

Of course I refused to respond to proposal 1 and told proposal 2 politely to 'take a hike'. Certainly goes to prove a point; we need the wisdom of the Holy Spirit to lead us daily in our walk and to sound the alarm wherever necessary. Here's to walking with You in close fellowship, O Lord!

A New Believer's Prayer

Thank you Father for loving us so much that You sent Your precious Son Jesus Christ to this world to die for all our sins. I receive Jesus into my heart as my Lord and Savior.
Thank you that all my sins have been nailed to the Cross on Jesus at His death and because He died in our place, I am now saved forever. I have been made righteous in Your sight because of what Jesus did and I can now enjoy Your blessings over my life. Thank you for the privilege of being called Your Child and for the Gift of Your Holy Spirit in my life. AMEN
