Things I learned from Nicole

I was blessed by this morning's sermon by Ps Ronald about going back to the Word. It was awesome! What a time to preach it to me. Indirectly He affirm me that learning from the Word is still the most important part of our growth.

When I arrived in church this morning, I didn't go to any of my Sec 2 cells. I went to the Church office and read. Then I prayed. I dun usually pray with music in my ears, but I was brought to tears when my i-Pod was playing Mineral's "Slower" where I sang the words for "In You" in my heart. Before that I was already immersed in praying to the Lord about my situation. I begged him to fill me with wisdom and I just went for it silently in prayer at Ps Betty's table. It was a good time. What a way to start the day!

Nicole is SW's 9 year old niece. We were at SW's cousin's wedding banquet this evening and I asked Nic what she had accomplished this holiday. One of the things that she went for was Christian camp and I asked her what was the most memorable thing that she learned. She shared with me the names of God. He is

1) Adonai
2) El Shaddai
3) Elohim
4) El Roi
5) Yahweh Jireh
6) Yahweh Nissi
7) Yahweh Ra

After such a spiritually challenged weekend, it's good to be reminded the lessons though a child. What a way to close the day. To remember who God is thru his various names.

Halelu Jah!
