What’s Your 2010 Story?
How many can say 2010 was one of the best years of their life? And how many would say it was one of the worst years? Well, whatever your year was like, I believe we all have much to be grateful to God for.
Regardless of how your year has been, God has indeed been good to us in 2010 and together as a community, we want to give Him thanks. What has God done for you in 2010? In what ways has He either blessed you, come through for you, or kept you through difficult situations? Let’s talk.
Psalms 145
1 I will exalt you, my God the King; I will praise your name for ever and ever.
2 Every day I will praise you and extol your name for ever and ever.
3 Great is the LORD and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom.
4 One generation commends your works to another; they tell of your mighty acts.
5 They speak of the glorious splendor of your majesty — and I will meditate on your wonderful works.
6 They tell of the power of your awesome works — and I will proclaim your great deeds.
7 They celebrate your abundant goodness and joyfully sing of your righteousness.
8 The LORD is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and rich in love.
9 The LORD is good to all; he has compassion on all he has made.

2010 for me was my worst year ever. The begining was fair but come mid year, stuf started geting from bad to worse. First, there was illness in my family that not only drained me financially but also emotionaly. Next came personal problems that have robbed me off my happiness, were it not for some little strength, i would be totaly depressed. Sometimes i think am better of dead but i cant stand the idea of commiting suicide. Not once have i been overwhelmed by a pain so deep and asked God to safely take me away,a prayer i make with no dedication at all. As i make this comment, i just got up to pray which i havent managed to because i cant stop crying. So many things have happened and am worried that this year might be no different, just hoping that it wont be worse. Events of this year have left me in deep pain that is seemingly difficult to get rid of. ANON.

Just watched the sermon today on Citizen TV. Cant seem to find the bible in pdf format…..where exactly is it? I purpose to start strong this year. It will be a great achievement for me to have read the entire bible in one year n ofcourse locate the secrets of life in God’s word. I think if i can just do this….everything else will fall into place.

@Lizbeth, depression is a form of spiritual warfare. You need to fight it every day (Ephesians 6:11-17). I struggled with it for decades, and felt hopelessly doomed to a life of bleak, quiet desperation and misery. But I’m hear today to tell you that with salvation came healing.
The Bible will give you all the ammunition you need to fight back and regain your joy. Don’t believe the enemy’s lies, read your Bible out loud and pray every day.

i never miss the thanks giving service, but i never say anything just listen to how god has been goodto others and has just shut me out. In 2010, i was shot off standing up and telling everyone to SHUT UP! I sat there teary:
I am a the fourth born of 5 kids, the top three do not see eye to eye, feel nothing for the other no phone call to check on the other…NOBODY CARES NO LOVE! This is now 3 years… i talk to all them, my dad will call me that so and so sent me a bad message or hang up on me, shouted me down…My dad is treated as if he is the one they gave birth to. It is not easy, i have cried so many times, shared with my friends but the gap is toooooo big. I am a happy person , very jovial and i am tired of covering up my sorrow in my smile and jokes.
I have been on and off with the guy above-God, and i feel left out as i isten to all this blessings and good things he is doing, i know he has not left me out cause i am alive, he has seen me through 2010 which was not too smooth.
I went to the prayer tent on 02.01.2010 and guess what i told Charity, that i want to think about rededicating my life …What is wrong with me? I have done it so many times i know God will take me n but sasa ninamchezea…Pray pray pray for me.
I have taken the word for 02.10.2010 – I will give my plans to the heavenly cockpit and let God take control. I dont want to sit on 25.12.2011 at the thanks giving sunday and not have something to say because i know he is going to do it for me. I am going to do Mizizi which i have postponded forever, I am sure that is a start!
God Bless you

Just like the rest I thought the year was all struggles as usual, but when I did Mizizi it felt like a new year within 2010. It was a real rejuvenation. Teri dont postpone it anymore because everyone leaves with a totally new experience and confidence. Even those who are not yet saved are usually redirected towards that path and it eventually happens. God is real and He is with us. We do not have to look far as He is just here.
