Life Lessons...

I feel like I am in a whirlwind!! So many changes in my life and in our church but I am confident of this one thing...God will never leave or forsake me...He never leaves me alone. He is the Shepard that keeps me in line, the Farmer that harvests his spirit in me and the Vine that prunes my branches and produces fruit and much fruit in me! I wouldn't have it any other way I absolutely love living blindly for God....I know that sounds crazy but I believe that I need to make only one decision ever!! That is to follow Christ as he leads me. I obey and he leads...How much easier could it be??

This is my inspiration:
Hebrews 11:8-12 (New International Version)

8By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going. 9By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. 10For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.

11By faith Abraham, even though he was past age—and Sarah herself was barren—was enabled to become a father because he[a]considered him faithful who had made the promise. 12And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.

The promise and its fulfillment!!! AMAZING!!

So excited!!!

In 6 days I will starting school again!!! YAY!! I will be doing my Master's degree through Libery University. I am so thrilled!
I was not sure whether I should or not but God opened the doors so I went for it!

There may be times when it seems that you cannot move forward, but at least you do not have to go backward. We may not know how to forge ahead, but we can stand firmly on what we know of God. Lord, help me to stand strong in Your power until You deliver me.

Amen!!

Labor Day!

It's Labor Day!!
It's a day to spend with family! I love it!
I am so grateful to have family to spend time with.
It's so important to stay connected to family because they are a part of you and your history.
Family is a network of love and constant community.
Family loves you no matter what.
The family of God should be more like that too, constant community and love sometimes we caught caught up in spirituality and forget to love. We need more LOVE!

Simple Cry

"Faith is no irresponsible shot in the dark. It is responsible trust in God who knows the desires of your heart, the dreams you are given and the goals you have set. He will guide your paths right."

We walk by faith and not by sight..... So true!
So God has pretty much been telling me to do something for a while now and I have been so scared, but then I finally listened....took the step and now I feel such a freedom...a burden lifted off of my shoulders.

It's amazing how the peace of God works in your favor...so truly...Faith is a responsible trust in the all knowing God!!

I can not imagine where my life would be without his guidance. I love God so much its insane. I can't live a day with him!!

This is my honest heart cry, Lord for you I'd give my life
No one else can touch that area that you own in my heart.
No one else could fulfill the desires of my heart and
make me feel the way that you do.
I want nothing but you guiding me and no one but you holding me!
I need you closer than my next breathe, this is my plea.
I love you more than life itself and I'm so blessed to have you by my side,
To fight my battles and call those things that are not as though they were.
I know one day I will stand before you and worship without end...I can only imagine.
Sometimes all I can do to express my gratitude is speak in song...
That's how I worship! Freely, truly, Unending!
