The Afters - Light Up The Sky - Music Video (Official)

-

One thing that God is showing me more and more is He is a LOVING God and HE is here with me - with us!! In the past years I have had some dark days when I felt just the opposite: in the recent few years God has been peeling back those layers of lies that I allowed to lay over my heart and mind. So much like Eve... doubting God's intention to be her everything and give her more than she imagined - in His Way and Time which is beautifully perfect...

In the last few days I heard a message that pointed out something A.M.A.Z.I.N.G. He takes us into the desert to build up our discouraged hearts... so we can be strong in Spirit.. and like John the Baptist ... every single one of our actions will point to Jesus. I can not even tell you how many truth lessons have been pointing to His Greatness, His Love, and His presense and His desire for me to totally depend on Him, Trust Him... Love Him completely lately. As I see this truth, this purpose... more and more, my stubborn independence, self defenses, excuses and selfishness is being disarmed by His quiet whisper of kindness, to trust Him. I want to abandon myself to Him as a Bride abandons her all to her Groom, moving with a deep passion to be with her Man.... all arguments cease because of her knowing He is the One. He is her all... Even that illustration is something God painted in my head today - through my prayer time with Him this morning and reading a few blogs that left this powerful impression.

This song... reminds us... He is with us... and that HOPE... God is with Us... Lights up the Darkness! I hope you enjoy this song... listen to it a few times... and let His love wrap you up tight and set you free from fear and doubt! He loves us... oh that we may grasp that more and more.... Ephesians 3:14-21

New Year's Eve

Man it's been a long while since I have blogged.  I have been in survival mode, fighting through, keep'n my gaze high as I can, sloughing the mud off and out of my eyes, and trusting that there was some reason for this trench.  Things have been shifting in me in the last few weeks.... I am starting to dream again.  I am starting to gaze through the grey and see sunshine and possibilities in the clouds!  Yet, I believe it's more than mere possibilities, I believe its the edges of the reality of who and what I am. I have learned a lot.  God has given me mooch-o much, that I can't hoard - hoarding kills life.  So, I want to share all HE has given me and proclaim that HE DOES give life abundantly.  He has created us to live... to glorify and honor our Maker. That is what I intend to do, starting now. Since you are trekking with me, you have seen my journey, my "a-ha" moments and dismal days.  I have fought many years to "find" my purpose and call

TAGGED

What are you reading? Melanie at monday through sunday tagged me for this meme. The Rules: 1. Pick up the nearest book (of at least 123 pages). 2. Open the book to page 123. 3. Find the fifth sentence. 4. Post the next three sentences. 5. Tag five people. The book I am reading right now is:.....Mere Christianity, by C.S. Lewis. A wonderful classic! "That is not the point in which faith comes in. But supposing a man's reason once decides that the weight of the evidence is for it. I can tell that man what is going to happen to him in the next few weeks. There will come a moment when there is bad news, or he is in trouble, or is living among a lot of other people who do not believe it, and all at once his emotions will rise up and carry out a sort of blitz on his belief." I don't know that many to tag!!

The Heart....

My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; Keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them And health to all their body. Watch over your heart with all diligence, For from it flow the springs of life. Put away from you a deceitful mouth And put devious speech far from you. Let your eyes look directly ahead And let your gaze be fixed straight in front of you. Watch the path of your feet And all your ways will be established. Do not turn to the right nor to the left; Turn your foot from evil. Once when i was cleaning house, i was talking to the Lord as i went from room to room, dusting and vacuuming. I asked Him a question, "Lord, what is the most important thing to you?"...now, God doesn't usually speak audibly to me but, His Word says His sheep know His voice...and i am definitely one of His Sheep. As i continued cleaning, not really expecting to hear an ans
