randomness...
nobody was born brave but we can become brave.
right believing leads to right living.
contentment is an attitude that should not be ruffled by circumstances.

this spoke to me today!
rest in me, my child. give your mind a break from planning and trying to anticipate what will happen. PRAY CONTINUALLY, asking my spirit to take charge of the details of this day. remember that you are on a journey WITH me. when you try to peer into the future and plan for every possibility , you ignore your constant companion who sustains you moment by moment. as you gaze anxiously into the distance, you don't even feel the strong grip of my hand holding yours. how foolish you are, my child!
**when my world is shaking, heaven stands!
when my heart is breaking,i never leave your hands!
remembrance of me is a daily discipline. never lose sight of my presence with you. this will keep you resting in me ALL day EVERY day!!!
1 thessalonians 5:17
psalm 62:5

LOVE BIRDS.
ive been with chris for 17 years....WHAT!! no did i just say 17 years....
WOW!! any way, as i sit and think about US i cant help but be so humbled by the fact that we have made it this far. we've been so close to the edge of hopelessness , to giving up. my love for him today is so much more then my love for him of yesteryears. maybe its maturity or maybe its learning to give the love instead of expecting it . i cant help but be overwhelmed with gratefulness to our savior Jesus Christ for redeeming us from the pit . i did'nt think i could love but im finding out daily that if i look to my father in heaven to teach me and mold me he will show me how to love, truely LOVE! so on this month of our anniversary i ask God to continue to show me how to love, truely love!!!
side note: chris and i have never celebrated an anniversary, odd i know.
we are learning , we are learning!
celebrate love!!!

proverbs4v23
above all else, guard your heart, for it is the wellspring of life.
proverbs 4v23
our heart-our feeling of love and desire- dictates to a great extent how we live because we always find time to do what we enjoy.Solomon tells us to guard our hearts above all else, making sure we concentrate on those desires that keep us on the right path.make sure your affections push you in the right direction. put boundaries on your desires: don't go after everything you see. keep your eyes fixed on the goal and don't get
sidetracked to sin.
i had never been taught this scripture when i was a young girl, it would have saved me a lot of heart ache. i will teach my daughter this and will pray fervently on her behalf.

i know why the caged bird sings
Caged Bird
A free bird leaps
on the back of the wind
and floats downstream
till the current ends
and dips his wing
in the orange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.
The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn-bright lawn
and he names the sky his own.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.

Courage
i just finished the beth moore bible study on esther. i had never read the story . i had heard bits and pieces but never had it touch my heart as it did these last 9 weeks. the book never speaks Gods name but he is ALL over it. he uses a young orphan jewish girl to save her people from death. she rises to the call with courage and faith and allows God to use her for his Glorious deliverance of his people. she was born "for such a time as this"esther4v14. as i got more into the study mordecai( the faithful man who raised her) begin to interest me. i had never known his part in the story. he too was a huge part in carrying out Gods plan. he stayed true to his calling and knew with great faithfulness God would use his beloved esther to save his people. he fasted, weeped and wailed on behalf of her and his people. sometimes i feel like mordecai , with such a burden to see my people set free! free from the bondage of sin that has been yoked on us since the fall in the garden of eden. JESUS was sent to us just for that . i like mordecai sit at the gate wailing!!

just a thought-
God does'nt need to punish people for sin. sin is it's own punishment,devouring you from the inside. it's not his purpose to punish it;it's HIS joy to cure it!!!
