BE CAREFUL WHO YOU JUDGE!
Pressing on with life requires frank tenacity that is LEARNED NOT something you're born with. To press on through years of chronic illness and pain has been exhausting but telling.
I was judged by some of my family because i wasn't living my life according to THEIR IDEAS, therefore, it was concluded that I'm not doing anything of value. Well, id say that God loves it when we press into Him, seeking Him with outstretched hand pleases the Lord. And He's the One I wont let go of, ever. And pleasing Him alone will be what I'm judged for( for rewards). And I happen to believe by faith that He's smiling down at me
DON'T JUDGE A SITUATION UNLESS YOU HAVE WALKED IN THAT PERSONS SHOES!!!!
( pardon the a word) but its so fitting!

THAT THIS WOULD BE OUR HOUR
OH Lord, hear my plea, please oh Lord, come and rescue me! For You Oh Lord are a shield around me...You are glory; the One who holds my head above water, for I am Your daughter!
I cry to You from the holy mountain and You will be to me as a living fountain, living water !
Father, show me Your heart; never let us be apart, fill my soul with words that give me life! Im ready to come to you as your bride.
I lay down to sleep and You stand watching over me...Alas, Lord, rescue so that all can see! Your great and marvelous power
That this would be our hour..,,
AT EASE
"Lord, please surround us with Yourself. Help us feel your presence, like a warm ocean breeze...
I sit in peace by the edge of the sea.
In my dream....
Waves break against the rocks with thunderous praise,
Oh Lord let us praise Your mighty name,
Sea spray that sprinkles my face....
Oh my Lord, I praise you for this grace~
And this amazing place....
Im so at peace, my soul at ease.

Fighting for the Kingdom
Jesus did not exaggerate when He used the term, “violence” to describe the progress of the Kingdom in this world. The citizens of the Kingdom are engaged in a turf war of cosmic proportions. So if we want to seek the Kingdom, we’d better get ready to rumble.
Jesus said that it is necessary for us to “force” our way into the Kingdom of God (Lk. 16:16). And the reason for this is that resistance to Kingdom progress is so constant and, yes, so violent

BEAUTY FROM ASHES
He will bring me beauty for ashes, and strength to my bones. Laughter and joy to call my very own; He is my lover and my laughter, keeper of my soul , I bow to Him in wonder and give Him all control. His eyes fix on to mine and I cannot look away, I want to stay forever under His eternal gaze and I am lost for words to say; except I love You Lord with all of my soul, You are my strong defense and lifter of my head, my strong tower I can run to for refuge and help in time of need, you are the chosen Seed.

DUST AND ASH
Lord, i feel forsaken and abandoned to my core...,,
Please help because I've reached my limit and I can't take much more.
Im searching and searching for you, to see or hear your voice like living waters ,
Lord, im parched and my soul so parched
This feels like a death march and ive so little strength.
I have no emotional energy when I awake , please stop his yelling, stop his finger pointed in my face.
There is no forgiveness, there is no grace, oh Lord, if i could but see your holy face.
He wont even look at me
And my son ignores my pleas , it drops me to my knees
Please help me Lord, for youre the one and only way who can set me free.
I pray for your mercy, I pray for your grace, but theres nothing
That i can see through my poor faith, and Lord,plesse be present
Help me not to break,
It just ALWAYS ACHES LORD!'
Im your little lamb O God
There is no mercy,! isthere, snd there is no grace.....!
Dust and Ash, dust and ash.'

Gifts that turn out for good
Michelle Secord Have you ever received a gift you did not like...only to see the gift's true value later on?
When I was in 7th grade, my mom gave me a particular Christmas present. It was a present that I felt, at the time, I had no need for…I did NOT like it!
In my immaturity and ungratefulness, I did not like the bible journal she had bought me that year.
Never mind that my mother had bought me other gifts, I just focused on the one gift I didn’t want.
Isn’t that how we ALL are with God at times?
He allows us marvelous gifts EACH & EVERY DAY…gifts we didn’t earn or deserve: His unconditional love & forgiveness, family, friends, health, jobs, homes, appliances to make our lives easier, churches, food, nature, laughter, music, cars, vacations, FUN, electronics, phones, everything good…yet we become angry, resentful, and distant when He gives us (or allows) something we didn’t want or ask for.
The “gifts” I received from God that I didn’t ask for were grief and being sick. Yes, they are gifts…and some of the most treasured gifts I have ever received.
I certainly didn’t think so at the time of receiving them…just like that bible journal from my mom…but NOTHING has shaped and formed me spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and physically as much as these very unwanted gifts.
The process of healing from grief and gaining my health back has been more meaningful because I know what it feels like to be brokenhearted and to totally not have my health. I haven’t yet arrived, but the journey I have walked with God is meaningful.
Today, think about a “gift in disguise” you didn’t want…something you resent God for. Ask Him to show you the gifts He has for you through your personal life storm.
Sometimes, the gifts you don’t want will often have great value…later on.
Sometimes, you will not know the worth and value of a gift until you get to heaven…but sometimes, they may end up being exactly what you need at a future date in life.
The bible journal my mom gave me back in the 7th grade became the journal I used after I got saved when I was 18. I also used that very special journal to read to my son (the part that had Bible pictures in it)…and he gave his life to the Lord because of that journal when he was 5. I also used that originally unwanted journal to write in after my sister died when I couldn’t form words to speak…and that special journal was the basis for my grief book that was published.
Never discount any gift God can offer you…even the ones you don’t want.
All gifts from God have great value.
