The season of receiving …

Today while in praise and worship I clearly heard those words from the Lord. After months of trail(more to come) and just enduring the winter season; living in the valley trying to find light. I am coming out! I am coming out! thank the Lord!

I feel so much joy and peace. Much like the peace and joy I felt in the valley. I am happy that God has not forsaken me. I knew he had me this whole time.
This has not been easy and I’m sure there will be a time of trail but trail really has shown itself to make me strong!

I have not been prefect but God has called me out. I know he has heard my cries and prayers and he is giving me the desires of my heart. His word is coming to past! I don’t deserve not one bit but he still extends his hand of grace in mercy.

Lord I pray that I’m not a doubtful servant and that I remain in the will of God to glorify your name.

Thank you God for all that is to come. I worship your name.

I am 24 years old and I feel almost like a child again. This new place that I’m in is more than I have ever imagined. I am going to ride this moment with joy. I’ve always believed that a shift would take place in my life. I believe in the possibility of what others may think of impossible…… And because of that, I think everything is falling into place. Not the way that I planned but how my father in heaven has. He has brought me such joy and peace….. Most importantly unconditional love. And now I am open to love and loving others… And to be in love. I promise to never hold myself back from love or giving it…. Always and forever

The moment when something “clicks” is often referred to as a light bulb moment. We often look at the positive side of what births out of the click like creative ideas, great descions or even a profound revelation. I for one have experience that clicking sound on numerous occasions and often felt great joy and success…..

However, today that click didn’t come with my usual bright smile or bubbly feeling. I felt dry, bare, and almost alone. My light bulb revealed to me a side of me that I thought I left behind……

Self will would be impossible without the belief of hope or believing that something would happen. Without hope what would we have? Where would we be?

Hope often is overlooked and at times mistaken for dreams or goals, but it’s not. Hope is the belief that something will and come to past.

I am spending the day with my family! I am at cousin’s 23rd birthday party and next I will be @ my uncle’s 43rd party!

I’m am grateful for special moments like these where I can be with my family, relax and laugh. God has placed these special people in my life and I’m sooooo proud to be apart of such a talented bunch of peeps that love God and love to give to others. My family has always been known to give to others, almost to the point of being taken advantage of BUT we love to love…

Today is a great day

James 3:5&6 reads: the tongue is a small part of the body, but make great boast. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. 6 The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole person, sets the whole course of his life on fire, and itself set on fire by Hell.

It is very important to be mindful when it come to speaking to others. I will take this further by saying our non verbal actions are just as important as what we spew out verbally. We should keep in mind what Christ would do or what advice or direction would he give to the disciples. Are we truly mocking the actions of Christ? I have to question myself on my daily habits….Am I properly carrying the cross daily? Am I speaking kind words and encouraging others?

I am sure there are several ways that I can share the love of Christ by simply SPEAKING kind words to others instead of ignoring people or allowing fear to rule my mouth. This year I WILL be more open to strangers and kind.

This is gonna be a great day.
