Point of Difference

We had this amazing Sunday morning service two days ago and I was anew encouraged to preach the gospel. I mean yeah I know we always should but just recently I have felt this very strong urge to more and more be used by God. There's this song Point of Differnce and I just love the lyrics because it says that in the midst of a world broken down God is all we have now.
We should be this point of difference! I think we tend to forget who is within us, whose Spirit, whose Love and Power ist within us. So let's not put ourselves in the foreground, but let God flow through us. Let us be the vessels in God's hands that he can let overflow with His love for the people, let us be the tools in His hands with which he can work so people will be saved and let us be like clay in His hands, ever formable, transformable and conformable to Him so that out of this rough stone He can make precious stones living in His Glory!
People should be naturally drawn to us wherever we go, because the Glory of God is upon us!

I pray that we will step up as a generation daring to make a difference, daring to give everything for the Lord, living a life that's radically changed and surrendered to the Lord Jesus Christ our Saviour!

Let's be the point of difference!

In Him be blessed. Yours. Ramona

My God is the God who provides

Hi... I mean hello,

I am so sorry that it took me forever to update this page. A lot has been going on in the last 2 months with the banquet for my pastors, Hillsong Conference in London (which was amazing, envisioning, encouraging and equipping) and visits at my grandmothers! Life is great and I belong to a great God who is ever faithful, ever loving and ever true! What would I do without him. I have such a love for the Lord in my heart I cannot describe it!
Here are the words of a worship song which I fell in love with recently:

Desert Song

This is my prayer in the desert
When all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in the hunger and need
My God is the God who provides

This is my prayer in the fire
In weekness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved to more worh than gold
So refine me Lord through the flame

And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and he is here

This is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on its way
I am a conqueror and co-heir of Christ
So firm on his promise I stand

All of my life
In every season
You are still God
And I have have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship

This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've received I will sow

I hope that your walk with the Lord is going good that you pursue to go deeper with Him and love Him more every day!

Love

Ramona

It's a New

Happy New Year everybody! Wow... I love starting something new, I love changes! This Hillsong song comes to my mind "It's a new day, it's a new day, the past has gone and life has just begun." I love that.

Well, the one thing I want to share with you on the New Year Day is a verse that I have read many times but just recently it so extremely spoke to me. It is in Mathew 6:33 "Seek the Kingdom of God above all else and live righteously, and He will give you everything you need."

I want to seek the kingdom of God above all else and follow Him whereever he leads me, I trust Him, I follow, I trust, I follow and I know He has great plan for my life.

May you continue walking with Him all the days of your life.

Love, Ramona

The Music within

It's Christmas time so it's time to watch The Lord of the Rings trilogy again! My sister gave me the special extended version last year for Christmas which makes it extra special.
Anyhow, we started with the Fellowship of the Ring yesterday and once again I am amazed by the movie, but more by the story, the complexity and the fantasy. It's like diving into another world! Every character is on his/her own journey to become what they were meant to be, to develop or to be the best friend they could ever be!

I still remember when I watched the movie for the first time and didn't know that it was a trilogy. Therefore I thought the ring would be destroyed by the end of the movie... haha... if only I had known. I remember how I sat in the theater, disappointed by the end until finding out that this was only the beginning...

Nonetheless, I want to talk about another movie today, which I watched in the theater this weekend. It is the movie August Rush. Oh my... what an awesome movie. It totally captivated me. It is a beautiful movie about music, love and finding the ones you love! The music in the movie is extraordinary and amazing! The actors are incredible and the story is breathtaking! At the end of the movie I was so into it that I was trembling and crying and after it I was still in that world of the movie and thought about it for a long time. I love those kind of movies. The movies which are able to captivate you and are more than just entertainment!

So... here's the preview, hope you like it and get inspired and go and see the movie:

Finding myself in you, Lord

This morning while spending time with God, this song came up on my playlist. It is called "Found" by Hillsong and I have listened to it many times but this morning the words totally inspired me again. Although the words are very simple it is their depth and honesty, their purity of worship which just make you bow down before the throne of the King and praise and worship!

Amazing love,
now what else shall I need
Your name brings life,
it's more than the air I breathe

My world has changed,
when Your life You gave for me
My purpose found
and all that You want for me

And I've found myself in You, Lord
And I've found myself in You

And I've found myself in You, Jesus
And I've found myself in You, Lord

So take me to a place
where I can see You face to face
and all I wanna do, all I wanna do
is worship You
So take me to a place
where I can see You face to face
and all I wanna do, all I wanna do
is worship You

The Horse in Me

Ok, most of you will think this is totally odd or you will think that now I have totally lost my mind... but please allow me to explain myself.

Do you know those games when you have to say what kind of animal you would be? Well... think about it?

A few days ago I took a walk out the back of my house to where the horses are. There's a horse farm with about 30 beautiful horses. I just stood there, watched them and thought to myself if I were an animal it surely would be a horse. The reasons herefore are things like the fact that horses live in groups, move in groups and need groups. Just like me. I need to be with people... I am a total people person. And even though they need people horses still represent freedom. And I am a kind of person who needs freedom and liberty.
And then there are other charakter traits like strength and a strong will, resilience, they use their back legs to give you a kick when you're too much .
There are cold-blooded-horses who are seen to be more laid back and "lazy", while thoroughbred horses sometimes seem to be crazy! Ha... that is just hilarious! Actually if they are cold-blooded or thoroughbred horses is estimated by their temperament...

The more I am thinking about it the more I think it is true. I am not talking about me being a horse but just looking at horses and seeing some parallels in charakter...

So if you still think I'm crazy you might actually be right, but that's ok! Maybe I am
