Relationship With The King
I don’t understand how people can be non- responsive in the presence of the Lord.
As for me, there are so many times that I just want to fall down, cry, scream, shout, yell, sing, run, dance, preach and sometimes even laugh for the joy inexpressible.
There is nothing better for me than being in the atmosphere of the Lord. He is everywhere. He is present at all times.
I am there in the midst of a powerful worship service and I can feel Him reading my heart like no other. He is whispering things to me. Good things. Favorable things. Continue reading
More Than A Thorn
What if you asked everyday , “Dear Lord, remove this from me! I can’t have this anymore as a thorn in my life!” Thorns hurt! For three times the Apostle Paul asked and received his answer. Maybe you are in that same situation… Asking God repeatedly to take something away so that you can be free and the next day arrives and still that plague is present.
“Even though I have received such wonderful revelations from God. So to keep me from becoming proud, I was given a thorn in my flesh, a messenger from Satan to torment me and keep me from becoming proud. Three different times I begged the Lord to take it away. Each time he said, “My grace is all you need. My power works best in weakness.” So now I am glad to boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ can work through me. That’s why I take pleasure in my weaknesses, and in the insults, hardships, persecutions, and troubles that I suffer for Christ. For when I am weak, then I am strong.”
2 Corinthians 12:7-10 NLT Continue reading
The Broken One
The Broken One
We are still enjoying the remains of our summer. Blue skies, breezy weather, shining sun with it’s rays lighting up the sand and keeping warm our skin. Everything looks lovely. The tides from last week brought in a whole array of shells!!! Different sizes, shapes and bold colors. They are each unique. There are even some broken ones washed up from the shore. If you go far enough you’ll pull up some of the most amazing shells! We can make a collection of them for display.
She scoops down to get a different shell after shell that catches the eyes. Water is about ankle deep and not strong at all. Just enough to push the shells a bit so they glisten under the shallow water. This one stands out… It is white and blue… Perfectly striped all the way to the end but it’s broken!!! She tosses it back in the water. Oddly enough she feels an inner conviction and thought, “God wouldn’t throw me away if I was broken!” So she stoops back down digging into the water and sand for that broken one! Oh how lovely! She showed it to me and told me the story. I said, “but with all the shells you have here this broken one is the most beautiful one of them all! Look!” I tilt it a bit so you see the broken side and its that cobalt blue that some other steady beach goers had mentioned. The part where it was broke had a beautiful blue color and not like the others. Continue reading
