Quote for the Day

When we look at the great prophets of the Bible before they walked in the true power of the Spirit, they all went down into the depths of repentance. The closer they moved toward God, the more they sensed His holiness and saw how unworthy they really were. They felt inadequate for the job and the need for a spiritual cleansing. Becky Dvorak

Quote for the Day

am not suggesting that we put on a religious spirit and become legalistic about how we worship—rather that we get real with God and authentic with our worship. I don’t believe we are to separate our worship from our daily living. Our lives need to become a living expression of worship to God. Becky Dvorak

Before and After Safe Water: 20 Powerful Photos

From the Compassion blog, comes a powerful article about how clean water transforms communities.

In northern Uganda, young Betty once faced a frustrating choice: walk nearly 4 miles to fetch water that cows and pigs also drank from, or drink from the nearby well, which was wriggling with worms. She was one of the 2.2 billion — or 1 in 3 — people around the world who do not have access to safe drinking water, according to UNICEF. The impact means hundreds of thousands of children under 5 die each year from preventable waterborne diseases.

For Betty, a safe water point changed everything. No longer is she one of the shocking statistics — she has clean drinking water at the turn of a tap. Access to safe water changes more than just a child’s health. It can improve their education outcomes and even their family’s financial situation.

See for yourself! Meet Betty and other children whose lives changed after they gained access to safe drinking water.

Today’s Bike Ride

I decided to ride along Yarrie Lake Rd this morning. Unfortunately Narrabri Shire seems to think that dumping a few tonnes of loose gravel is a road repair. After I walked through the quagmire I discovered a few km on that Bohena Creek is still over the road. A shorter ride than planned.

To be a cheerful giver unto the Lord, we have to first love God and value what He values; and even more so, is the need to recognise all we have comes from the Lord. When we have these three points in order, we can be that cheerful giver who sows bountifully, generously. Becky Dvorak

Quote for the Day

When sharing in corporate worship like this, people are built up by the message of the Word, ministered to in the realm of the prophetic, are uplifted from the heaviness of the world, and healed and made whole in spirit, soul (mind and emotions), and in their physical bodies.  Becky Dvorak

Quote for the Day

The fiery furnace we face may not be an actual furnace, it may be a disease raging against us, or family relationships, or a myriad of other issues. But whatever it may be, no matter the intensity of the blazing flames of the ungodly furnace we face, true worship will give us the grace and strength we need to enter into warfare worship and overcome. Becky Dvorak
