JEHOVAH - RAPHA: THE LORD WHO HEALS

He said, “If you will diligently obey the Lord your God, and do what is right in his sight, and pay attention to his commandments, and keep all his statutes, then all the diseases that I brought on the Egyptians I will not bring on you, for I, the Lord, am your healer.” 

EXODUS 15:26

Job 13:15King James Version (KJV)

15 Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him.

Who is Your Elizabeth?

I came across this lovely article from http://lacedwithgrace.com/

It’s no secret that us gals are relational. Get a group of women together and we will talk and talk and talk and talk. We can’t help it, it is how God has wired us. When I have something big happen in my life, after talking to my husband, my next impulse is to call my girlfriend Celia, my Elizabeth.
When Jesus’ mother Mary, was given the biggest news of her life, she had no husband to confide in. Her first instinct after her visit from the angel of the Lord, was to immediately go out and seek Godly counsel from her cousin Elizabeth. Then Mary said, “Behold the maidservant of the Lord! Let it be to me according to your word.” And the angel departed from her. Now Mary arose in those days and went into the hill country with haste, to a city of Judah and entered the house of Zecharias and Elizabeth. Luke 1:38-40

Mary didn’t wast any time, she went with haste. The definition of the word haste is; to move with speed, or in a hurry or a rush.
As a Christian woman, who is your Elizabeth? Who do you rush to in a hurry? Who do you seek for your Godly counsel? If you don’t have an Elizabeth of your very own, ask God to put one in your life. I have included below a few characteristics to look for in your Elizabeth.

Your Elizabeth should:

Have a steadfast walk with the Lord.
Give Godly counsel in truth and love.
Encourage you in your walk with Jesus.
Encourage you in your marriage.
Be someone whom you desire to learn from.
Pray for you.
Rejoice in your successes.
See your God-given gifts and encourage you to use them.

 

Your Elizabeth should not:

Gossip with others about things you have shared.
Disrespect your husband or family.
Remind you of past failures, or make fun of your shortcomings.
Pull you away from others.
Discourage you from serving the Lord.
Be in competition with you, or insecure in your achievements.

Take a moment and stop to ask yourself, “Who is my Elizabeth?”

Pressure to find a job as a graduate

when you are doing your undergrad u always daydream about the job you are going to have after graduating, you are always confident of getting a job since you know that you will be highly qualified. 

 that is exactly how i felt, i thought i would come back to Zimbabwe and get the job of my dreams and build my career but it wasnt as simple as i had it figured out in my head. 

I got back and went straight into helping out family busioness for a year so the job pressure wasnt so much felt cz i was busy, then after a year i started yeaning for a real job whre i would be accountable. i did manage to get a job and i worked there for 8 good months, it was an amazing company with amazing collegues, as usual u know a human being is never satisfied. I decided i wanted to go back into business and left my job........imagne i quit a good paying job. i left a job that was amazing to go into business in an uncertain economy.

I do not know why i left that job honestly it was a mistake but funny thing about mistakes, usually they teach you a lesson. I was jobless from Jan 2014 to March 2015, just at home doing nothing. i chauffered my brother from school daily, that was my side job, it was what my day/life was about, i finally landed a job in March 2015, it was an okay job, not as great as the first, no job will be like that job to be honest. i stayed there for 3 months only it was not a good fit and both i and my employer wanted to let go of each other. 

unemployed again i started applying for jobs, by July 2015 i had landed another job, this job was good i liked it it wasnt very low key and not demanding, i was there till Feb 2016 when i then started my current job, My current job is good, my employers are amazing people and i am happy here, i dont see myself job hunting again, i think this job is one of those you are in for years and never think of moving until maybe an unexpected event happens in your life

im trully grateful that im now permanently employed and enjoying my work.

to all those unemployed, a job will come, those in school jus know patience is key when job hunting, i personally believe if a job is yours its yours nothing or noone can change that.

Battling with scleroderma and morphea

So you know sometimes you come across a dry and dark skin patch on your body and think Vaseline will take it away....mine dont go away and they grow and expand and become something medically termed as morphea.

What is morphea?

Morphea (mor-FEE-uh) is a rare skin condition that causes painless, discolored patches on your skin. Typically, the skin changes appear on the abdomen, chest or back. But they might also appear on your face, arms or legs. Morphea tends to affect only the outermost layers of your skin.


What is the disease scleroderma?

Scleroderma, also known as systemic sclerosis, is a chronic systemic autoimmune disease characterised by hardening (sclero) of the skin (derma). In the more severe form, it also affects internal organs.

Is Scleroderma life threatening?

Diffuse Scleroderma. The severity of diffuse scleroderma varies widely, and it is very difficult to predict its course. It generally follows one of two paths: If it is acute or rapidly progressing, it may be a life-threatening condition that affects internal organs.

Is Scleroderma hereditary?

A. Scleroderma is not considered a hereditary disease. However, some families are more affected by autoimmune disorders than others. Although scleroderma is not directly inherited, some scientists feel there is a slight predisposition to it in families with a history of rheumatic diseases.

Scleroderma is caused by genetic and environmental factors. Mutations in HLA genes seem to play a crucial role in the pathogenesis of some cases (but not all), likewise silica, aromatic and chlorinated solvents, ketones, trichloroethylene, welding fumes and white spirits exposure seems to contribute to the condition in a small proportion of affected persons.
