Believing God....

This week I started a Beth Moore study with Maria.. it has started fantastic ... I have watched the video twice.. considering actually watching it a third time because it is truly is worth watching. The first time I watched I did not receive as much as the second time. That second time so many things spoke to me...
Like the one thing she stated is how the Lord desires to bless but with blessing we must be obedient. And believe in Him...
Are we worthy of his blessing? Can He trust us with it?
We have a 5 statements-
God is who he says he is
God can do what he says he can do
I am who God says I am
I can do all things through Christ
God's Word is alive and active in me.
She gave this one story.. where she is walking her dog and a head she sees to ducks sitting in this small puddle. She looks up and just over this small mound is a gorgeous pond and she thinks, " now why are those ducks sitting in that small puddle when there is this gorgeous pond just a few feet away" She says she knows our heavenly father is saying the same thing... " umm hello you are sitting in a puddle.. look up there is a beautiful pond awaiting. HELLO you are sitting in a puddle" ( of course this does not justice to her facial expressions and southern accent but you get the point.)
We spend so much time Not Believing the Word which is why we struggle on living the WORD.. if you dont BELIEVE IT then how can you possibly live it in your life. You spend  time battling the tanglible here and now against the that was then philosophy. Part of us truly living for CHRIST is BELIEVING.. I am so excited to see what the Lord will do in my life these next few weeks as I seek HIS WORD, to truly BELIEVING GOD and making my reality and my theology be one in my life.
In Christ

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
