Good Morning Father!

Several of the past mornings I awoke with a prayerful heart. . .thinking of my family and what the future holds for each of them. . . for my friends that have been on my mind and are dealing with issues. . .I am so thankful that I can talk to my Heavenly Father about each of them and know He is listening and He cares and loves them. Below is one of my favorite songs by Phil Wickham. . .

YOU'RE BEAUTIFUL

I see Your face in every sunrise

The colors of the morning are inside Your eyes

The world awakens in the light of the day

I look up to the sky and say

You're beautiful



I see Your power in the moonlit night

Where planets are in motion and galaxies are bright

We are amazed in the light of the stars

It's all proclaiming who You are

You're beautiful, You're beautiful



I see You there hanging on a tree

You bled and then You died and then You rose again for me

Now You are sitting on Your heavenly throne

Soon we will be coming home

You're beautiful, You're beautiful


When we arrive at eternity's shore

Where death is just a memory and tears are no more

We'll enter in as the wedding bells ring

Your bride will come together and we'll sing

You're beautiful
I see Your face,

You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful

I see Your face,

You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful

I see Your face,

I see Your face

I see Your face,

You're beautiful, You're beautiful, You're beautiful

Thoughts from the day. . .

Been contemplating coversations & thoughts from the day. . .


To me being OPEN to what God wants for me is something I have always been ready for, except for the past year or so. . . .I have fought it tooth and nail. . .He has been so patient with me and loved me through this rebelious time I have been in. Thankfully HE is more gracious than I and much more ready to forgive me and draw me back to Him than I am to others. . .working through that. . .He also knows my weakenesses.

God has placed YOU, my friend, in my life to show me that being HIS is not an option. He chose me, not me HIM. I am His child and I want to be where HE wants me. . .seriously that does not matter where, because where He has planned is so much better than where I fight to be on my own.

Even the thought of loosing this precious man He has made for me has been a very sobering train of thought and one I do not want to have to find out what it is like.

Don't let fear play a part in your life be open and ready for HIS plan. Let God show you what it is that He wants to bless you with.

Let His peace flow over you this weekend and rest in Him.

"For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of love and of hope and a sound mind!" II Tim 1:7 my fav verse!

Can I Get a "Do-Over"?

Over the past two years I had several major and a few minor things happen in my life. Some to me and some to others that affected me greatly. I sit here now looking at the date of my last post and I am shocked at the amount of time that has passed. 


These past two weeks have been just as bad, but have served as a wake-up call.


Decided to change this to an account of my journey back. . .

Still Small Voice, "This is not who you are!"
me, "Did I hear something?"
Still Small Voice, "This is not who you are!"

me, "What?"
Still Small Voice, "This is not who you are!"

me, "Did You say what I think You said?"
Still Small Voice, "This is not who you are!"

me, "Yes, I know that." and still proceeded to NOT heed the warnings.

Two weeks and alot of heart/gut wrenching pain later. . .

Still Small Voice, "That is not who you are!"

me, "I feel like it is who I am. HELP ME!! PLEASE!"
Still Small Voice, "Sit with Me child & listen & learn. I Love you!"
me, "I am so sorry. Will you help me out of this pit?"

I have been led to start reading two books,

So Long, Insecurities
&
Get Out of That Pit
both by Beth Moore

This will be my dialogue of how God brings me out of this PIT.
