What Helped You Get Through The Day?

I’ve been unwell for most of the week but I have enjoyed spending quality time with my Love, Jesus Christ❤️ Just being in His presence. Just listening- you could hear a pin drop! Pulling up a chair & sharing a coffee with Him, pouring out both my happy events & my concerns “all because I do not carry,everything to God in prayer.” “What a Friend WE have in Jesus”. I was communicating with My Love, indeed My Best Friend. However…, the enemy didn’t like that and somewhere, I let my guard, my armour, slip & I began to think “no one has even contacted me to see if I’m ok…” The spirit of lies trying to make a stronghold in my life & attach itself to my mind & so, my joyous mood teetered on the brink of collapse. But GOD! My Defence, My Shield; came immediately to my rescue & protected me.

Here I am, dining with the most Sovereign King Jesus & I lose my focus? At that moment & I can only describe this as a ‘God-touch’; I received this gift through a wattapps sent not only to encourage me but others too. Though not suffering with mental health issues, I felt alone in this pain but Jesus is reassuring me that I’m never alone and He has placed help all around me. Please know that whatever the illness or condition, this message was sent to me for you too. It was sent with these encouraging words “for all those who feel alone, let us be the change”;

From Jo Barker, Lambeth HQ

How beautiful it is when we see God at work. We know He is working but when we witness it so boldly, it draws us even more nearer to Him. He has sent help in time of trouble, He places helpers to lift our spirits; thank to those who do. ‘We’ is much better than ‘I’. Please think of the sick among us, especially those with illnesses which are not visible. Those whom you may not have seen for a while. This is what ‘we‘ are called to do. This is what we are called to be; to be the hands and feet of Jesus.

My Love, My Jesus, wants me to remember His words; He wants you to remember this too “and lo I am with you always, even until the end of the age.” Matthew 28:20 KJV ?

About Samantha Alexander

I am a born again Christian and I attend The Refuge Church of The Living God, St. Mary's, Clissold Park, North London. I come from an extremely large Christian family, being one of 8 children,'sibling' to many foster children & I'm married to a gorgeous serving Officer. We share two wonderful, at times a handful?, extremely talented & sporty children. We are blessed by the laughter & joy they bring us. My role in the Met is within the Specialist Crime Directorate and I have been a Forensic Practitioner for the past 15years. I have overcome much adversity with my health & had it not been for Gods hand upon me, my faith & good support from my family & really beautiful colleagues, I would have given up long ago.
God has positioned me here for such a time as this & He has now opened this wonderful door to London Christian Police Family.
I love to laugh & encourage people around me & my joy definitely springs up when we can smile through our storms. May God ever bless you, Samantha?
