When Season's Change....
I have been trying to find the words to post after July 5th but everytime I try I get a little sick to my stomach and have to save it for another day. These two videos I posted reminded me of several things:
1) Stephen Curtis Chapman - I must do everything I do for the Glory of God - even when no one sees remembering that God sees
2) Clinging to Grass - When our world turns upside down and I do not understand why or how I can ever move on I must hold to the hand of my Lord - remembering everything that comes in my life is filtered through His fingers of love and I must hold to the hope found in Him and keep my faith without wavering.
On July 5th when I stepped outside for a morning walk little did I know that this was to be the last time I would see my brother alive - and that was only a glimpse as he passed by on his way to work. On Wednesday July 6th he never woke up and we discovered him that evening.
Do everything to the Glory of God - remembering we are not promised the next breath and the same goes for our loved ones. I have so many things "I wish" I had done - or said. Without the comfort of my Lord - clinging to Him is the only thing that keeps me going through this time of grief. My God is with me and teaching me everyday and I know doors will be opened for me to share. My faith is being tested and my hearts desire is to come through stronger!
Until then....I press on....

Sleepless in Possom Kingdom - PART 2
OK - 7:20 am and I have just returned from my walk...
I FORGOT - how walking in the morning is so mind - clearing
I FORGOT - how carrying my memory verse card and praying and meditating on those words to God is so powerful
I FORGOT - how as I talk to God thru these words I find clarity and direction in my day
I FORGOT - how everything changes when I am obedient
I FORGOT - what this tasted like
My prayer tonight will be "Lord, wake me in your timing to meet with you again!"
Remind me Lord.....don't let me be like the animal I saw yesterday on my walk to the pool - stubborn old goat with horns ready to attack - or - too busy eating pleasures of the moment - escaping safety of his domain and protection of his shepherd - trying to satisfy his needs his own way.....

But rather remind me of the energy of the bunny hopping across in front of me this morning - resting in the protection of his Maker
Verse Number 3 is Ps 16:11 "You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever"
The word "joy" in Hebrew means "to spin around (under the influence of any violent emotion)"
My verse for today!
Praising Him for His Blessings today!
