There is so much to learn!!!!!!!!

Just You!

You woke me up this morning, Lord, and I realized You are all I want.  Nothing matters but You.

The enemy of my soul would love to shut me up, shut me down and bury me.  He never learned his lesson.  I have your resurrection power in me, so I'll rise again!

Thank You, Jesus!

Today, I just want You!

Saturday's Sublime

Work, work, work all week is fine.
But Saturday's here and freedom's mine!
I love to work, I won't repine.

But Saturday's sublime!!

Be Still and Listen

It's hard to be still and listen. So often all I hear are the noises around me. The air-conditioner. My stomach growling. It's amazing how noisy my body is.  But You know my heart, Lord.  My greatest desire is that You be my greatest desire!

How would my life be different if you were?  You want me to be an insider.  You want me to have a fullness that is the complete opposite of loneliness; a confidence in Whose I am, and who I am in You; a holy boldness.  You want me to be so loved that I am love.  Love conquers fear, covers sin and never fails!  Love bestows beauty and grace. Love envelopes and indwells.  Love never stops giving because it has no end.  Love sees the treasure in another.

You want me to raise the dead.  There are so many levels of understanding.  Literally, I want to pray for babies and children and see them made  alive.  I want those things that You have created in me to not be aborted; to not be brought forth through pain and sorrow, but birthed in joy!

What is the opposite of lethargy, stress, and depletion?  Energy, enthusiasm and abundance.  These are You desires for me and for Your family!

Thank You Father that You are creating in me a perfect reflection of Your Son, Jesus.

This or That?

This or That?

Pressure, stress, anxiety;
Feelings of inadequacy assault my soul at every turn;
Waking every day in dread.

"Be still my soul, the Lord is on your side."

"Capture, bless, be found in Me;
You can do all things through Christ, stand firm, stand firm.
Don't let fear inside your head!"

"Be still my soul, the Lord is on your side."

Proverbs 12:25:  "Anxiety in the heart of man causes depression, but a good word makes it glad."
