He place my feet upon a Rock and put a new song in my Heart

Ecclesiates 10:2-"A wise man's heart directs him toward the right, but the foolish mans heart directs him towards the left."

Ever since I can remember I have always enjoyed writing. I never was good at articulating my thoughts verbally, but could through writing. It has become a way for me to express my feelings, thoughts, what God is doing in my life. It's like a release for me, and also very healing. It is also a way for me to journal, all what God is doing in my life. To share the valley times, the mountain top times..to share how He answers prayers.

I recently came through a very desert time in my life. During that time, I couldn't even find the energy to journal...but I think there was a reason for that, I think God just wanted me to draw close to HIM. During that time, God removed every idol in my life. Ashley had moved away, I was not in a church..just visiting from week to week, my family was distant. My job was gone..there was no where to run, no where to hide. It was during these months that God did some amazing healing in my heart.

For many years I had been holding on to bitterness, unforgiveness, my heart had become hard, and self protective..Oh, I could put on the smile, and act if everything was just fine, but it was not. I had lost my countenance. But through a biblestudy, called.."Healing Hearts, God did some major hear surgery. It was as if He was taken a scapel and digging, scrapping, away all the poison. It was a painful time..a time of looking in the mirror, and the reflection that I saw was not pretty. But through this process..I have been set free. I was able to let go of bitterness, I was able to forgive..and through all of that, God gave me a new heart. I am experiencing more joy in my life, than I have ever known..I am experincing a close, intimate relationship with Him. I am experiencing a close intimate relationship with my husband, and my daughter. He.."Has place my feet upon a Rock, and put a new song in my heart!"

As I woke up this morning..the sun was rising, the air is crisp..I can sense Fall around the corner. I love Fall..the crispness, the changes in the trees and leaves..the colors. This morning I have an interview with the school district. I'm getting ready to wake up Ashley so that we can work out. I love my daughter..God is doing great things!

Today I give Him thanks for changes, for desert times..for mountain top times, for His Word, for His mercies that are new every morning.

Isaiha 11:2-"The Spirit of the Lord will rest on Him the Spirit of wisdom and understanding, the Spirit of counsel and strength, The Spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.'Romans 11:3-"O the depths of the riches both of the wisdom and knowledge of God! Wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable are His judgements and unfathanable His ways.

Lord, today I thank You for Your Word. I thank You for Your mercies and Your faithfullness. I lift up this day..and pray blessings upon every member of my family. I also ask that You bless this lady..who is upset for me, for speaking Your Truth..bless her family, bless her health, bless her work..bless her..reveal Yourself to her..Lord I pray for the salvation of my family..Bring Your Light.."Light of the World You stepped down into darkness..open our eyes let us see.." I Love YOU Lord..with all my heart! Lv, your daughter of the KING!
