Praise God for the rain
for this day
for this true life
for the trials
for the mountaintops
for the valleys
for the blessings
for all that is pure and good
for his good perfect and pleasing will
for his passion in my heart
for his unconditional love
for his character
faithfullness
love
compassion
purity
perfection
life..
Praise Him for all things, praise Him that i can actually praise Him
what a time of life we are all in, the world will keep going with or without us, but we all have a choice to sit on the fence, (which belongs to Satan), or we can follow what is pure and good, and know that we are fully pleasing fully acceptable, there are no strings attatched, we can rest in His love.
life isnt fair but who cares when God is here
questions we must all, ask ourselves, moment by moment are
what are we living for
do we have joy
is Christ our treasure
are our eyes on Him
where are we resting, who are we relying on
do we trust
do we have faith
where is our freedom
where is our hope
"The world and its desires will pass away, but the man who does the will of God will live forever."
The more i go through valleys, and face trials and hardships the more i can see what God is doing through them, by His mercy i am drawn closer to Him, and can find joy, true joy. I will not say it is easy, by any means but who said it was suppose to be. Paul did say,that when we are weak then we are strong, we get strenght from the Lord. Gosh , God is so good. i truly and nothing and going nowhere without Him. please pray about the next year for Kai (the second love of my life) :-) and I, for where the Lord wants us and where we can bear the most fruit for Him, and mostly pray we wont lose focus, and forget who we are running this race for, who we are fighting the good fight for., actually pray for open doors, open hearts, bold character,and true fear of the Lord.
