How He makes our messes into Miracles

Right now I'm doing a biblestudey from Priscilla Shirer, studying the book of Jonah. I have really enjoyed it! Some of the things I want to share, have been coming from this biblestudy. So I'm just going to share some statements from her study.

"God can make the impossible possible"
"Sometimes your greatest message is the mess of your life."
"God can redeem the parts of your life you thought were wasted."
"When we are obedient to God and His anointing is on it, we can expect huge things."
"The Holy spirit must mark us so that others know we serve a different God."
"God loves to put us in the challenge because that's where He gets to be who He is."
"When God places an abnormal calling on your life, it is because He has abnormal results He wants to produce through us.

As I have been reflecting on some of these truths, I can sure see how it all has worked in my life. He has taken many messes in my life, and turned them into miracles. My pregnancy as a single mom, being hospitalized for 14 days in my pregnancy, and how God spoke to me in those days.

He walked with me through my cervical cancer.

He has walked with me in some very difficult years teenage years with my daughter, and she is such a miracle!

Out of a very messy marriage, He has healed, restored, and gave me a new heart for my husband.

As I look back, He has totally redeemed so much waste in my life, and brought much beauty out of the ashes.

As I look back on the tapestry of my life, I stand amazed at His many miracles, and I am so blessed by His un-conditional love, forgiveness, and mercies that are new every morning, and His faithfulness.! I am excited to see what He has planned for this next season ahead.

I love you Lord...

So Blessed to be a Daughter of the King!

Daily Walk with God

Dear Lord,

Today I come to you and ask for a fresh filling of Your Holy Spirit. Lord that you would search my heart, and reveal anything that is not from You. Forgive me Father when my life does not always represent you well. I confess to You my sin, of sometimes wanting to fit into this world, and as a result, I at times give in to old habits. Lord give me the strength to walk away from old temptations, actually not old, because they tend to rear their ugly heads daily, and although for the moment it looks harmless and fun, if I give in..then comes the conviction, of not walking in Your ways, and I blow my testimony big time.

I love You so much Lord, and all that You have walked me through. You have forgiven me much. You have loved me much. I am amazed that You never give up on me. Help me to Love and forgive as You do.

Lord, You know my temptations, and my weaknesses, and without You, and the strength of Your spirit, in my flesh it is easy to fail. Whatever it takes, Keep my on my knees, as I walk this battle. Strengthen me by Your Word, through prayer.

Today I pray for my friends & family, for their salvation. For all our Grandchildren, for their salvation. For our daughter, that You would continue to walk with her, and draw her close to You. For our marriage, that we would continue to pray together daily, to love each other unconditionally, to forgive easily, to pray contiually for our family, and to always put You first place.

Thank you God, for always providing, always protecting, for Your mercies that are new every morning. For all the opportunities that You give us, always may our light shine. When I mess up, to be able to keep short accounts with You. To stay accountible to other believers. Today I need Your strength, and the willingness to keep on keeping on. AS the world gets darker, may Your light shine brighter.

I love You,
Blessed to be a Daughter of the KING!

Tough to let go

No matter how old your kids are, you never stop worrying. Today is a tough day, as I'm having to once again surrender my daughter to HIM. I see some of the choices that she is making, and it breaks my heart to watch. All I can do is offer my advice when asked, pray, and be there for her. Oh Lord, I pray that you would intervene in this one area. I pray for your will. Protect her heart, protect her. Draw her close to You..and if she has to suffer some life consequences, I pray that they won't be too harsh. Be with her Lord, and help me too be able to trust You. You have brought her through so much..and I thank you for that..so I will trust and surrender.
