The power of prayer!

My heart is lighter. I do not feel so alone. I am reminded that He does care for us, every little detail in our lives...things that seem so insignificant...He has helped me with these last few weeks....find a way out of the darkness in my heart!

Praising my dear heavenly Father, for helping me along these last few weeks. Helping me thru a very dreary winter..and although the sky is full of grey and clouds and wet...I am hopeful, yes so very hopeful for the coming sun and spring! Praising Him for sending prayer warriors my way, women full of wisdom, patience, and kindness, that have reached out....thank you, Father, for looking after me this way!

Wow!

It's been a whole month since I have bothered with this thing. But tonight I felt compelled to share verses that have been workin on my heart and soul... so here it goes.
From Deut. 30:19b-20a
...so choose life in order that you may live, you and your descendants,
(How? How do we choose life?) by loving the Lord your God, by obeying His voice, and by holding fast to Him... Deut. 30:19b-20a

I want to choose life! May my children see me choosing life! May my sweet hubby see me choose life! May all those around see me choose life... embrace the amazing life my Lord has given me! Even when that life seems gray and drab. Even when that life is filled to the rim with pain and difficulties!
May God give me the courage to CHOSE LIFE instead of choosing to give up!
I can be such a chicken about this. Choosing life will not be easy. It means letting go of the old ways. It means stepping way out of my comfort zones! Please dear Lord, give me the energy and guts to do this....everyday!

Hmmm....

Today my heart feels full of so many things. I am so glad to be here, but it will be a struggle to get through the day. It is worth the struggle...it is worth it...but oh it is such a struggle! God, please help me honor you for the rest of today, help me honor you as I struggle. Give me the strength to love those around me, even thru the struggle. I know you promise to lift me up like an Eagle...

They that wait on the Lord, shall renew their strength...they shall mount up with wings like Eagles...

They shall run and not tire...they shall walk and not become weary, for the Lord is their strength...

They will soar, though they grow weary and tire and young ones stumble on...

God help me hang onto your truth, your promises, your love.

My first one

I am not sure what this will be like. I am not sure why I am doing this. So I will leave it at that for today!
