Precious Moments - Remember

I have to tell you all a funny story.. Well, I think it’s pretty darn funny and cute!!

My 3 year old son has long hair…

He knows when mama says “shower time” that that means his hair is getting washed/combed.

Well, this past Monday was shower time!!

He cried, and cried, and cried…

I told him all that was not necessary because he was getting his hair washed…

He still proceeded to cry, even while in the shower.

After we were all done, and he had his pj’s on…

He stood in between my legs, wrapped his little arms around my neck
and in the most pitiful voice ever said,

“I LOVE YOU MOMMY”!!

I chuckled within and responded, “Mommy loves you too”!!

At that moment, I didn’t let go of him…

I simple enjoyed that moment with his little arms wrapped around me,
and his sweet little voice echoing in my head.

The world stood still for what felt like forever, and I THANKED HIM for that precious moment J

Today’s assignment: Think of a precious moment you had with someone that is/was special to you…

                           After that thought make sure you thank HIM for those special memories!!

May God Bless You All J

Your Heart Is Delicate

Proverbs 4:23

Watch over your heart with all diligence,
For from it flow the springs of life.

The heart can sometimes be a touchy subject..

We all at one time or another have had someone treat us poorly,

but what we do with that afterwards is on us.

If we, dwell in the sorrow that the individual has brought us then our heart seems to ache…

If we, give it all to HIM then our heart seems to still be dancing… And dancing!!

Treat your heart just like you would treat a newborn…

Don’t let anything harmful impact it or destroy it…

“For from it flow the springs of LIFE!!”

Prioritizes

Luke 10:41-42

⁴¹ But the Lord answered and said to her,

“Martha, Martha,

you are worried and bothered about so many things;

⁴² but only one thing is necessary,

for Mary has chosen the good part,

which shall not be taken away from her.”

Where are you at?

What means the world to you?

What will you break your neck for?

I have been one of those people that has to make sure everything is in place…

On top of that, I am a people pleaser.

I want to make everyone happy…

But, sometimes that just isn’t important.

We sometimes forget who is the most important…

Take a wild guess on who I’m referring to!!

HA.. You guessed it.. HIM!!

Let’s practice on putting HIM 1^st, and remembering HIS great power/presence!!

FYI

When you receive new information on something, where does that lead you?

Does it lead you to search for more information to support what you just read or found out?

Or does it leave you just stuck on that one thing?

With a question, there is typically always an answer that follows…

And with that answer, is another question, and then another answer…

So…

Why would one think, “this is it”…

Why would one think that HE is limited…

Why would one think that HE would limit us, HIS children...

Why would HE do that to us?

Guess what?

HE wouldn’t do that… HE doesn’t do that!!

HE wants us (HIS children) to be knowledgeable on everything HE created!!

HE is most powerful, and HE handles all…

HE keeps an open heart/mind when it comes to us,

so why should we not do the same when it comes to HIS information.

This is a special message.. For Your Information!!

The Gitf of Faith

Faith is not provided to us from any book..

Faith is a gift that was provided to us when we were created, before we were even conceived..

When a newborn is born it is placed on the mother’s chest, and they have the natural instinct to pull/suck.

Where does this natural instinct come from?

How does a infant know to do this?

Why do they continue to pull/suck when there is nothing coming?

Because they have been given the gift of faith.. It’s faith that gets them through.. It’s faith that gives them hope!!

They have faith that if they keep on trying then something will manifest.

The universe is HIS chest.. Let that marinate!!

Fight To Build Your Strength

Psalm 144:1

Praise the LORD, who is my rock.

He trains my hands for war

and gives my fingers skill for battle.

1 John 4:4

But you belong to God, my dear children.

You have already won a victory over those people,

because the Spirit who lives in you is greater

than the spirit who lives in the world.

When we pray to ask HIM to provide us with the strength to get through..

Do we really know what we are praying for?

We are praying for HIM to place us into another fight.

HE places us in specific trials to strengthen us.. We have to build our muscles..

HE doesn’t just give us the power/strength, and we haven’t put in any work..

Even though the battle is already won.. We still have to fight, and show HIM we are strong warriors.

If we can’t handle these practice battles HE is throwing at us, then how are we going to hold up in the

REAL BATTLE!!

Will you fight for yourself today?

Lonely... Seek HIM

Psalm 68: 5-6

⁵ A father of the fatherless and a judge for the widows,
Is God in His holy habitation.
⁶ God makes a home for the lonely;
He leads out the prisoners into prosperity,
Only the rebellious dwell in a parched land.

When we find ourselves lost or left for dead by the outside world..

We tend to feel alone, and maybe at times scared.

Wait, Stop, Hold the press….

Who is the most important being.. Who is the one that stated HE is our everything..

Who can fill HIS presence.. Who can fill HIS shoes..

Who else can provide everything you need.. Who else knows your true future?

I don’t know of anybody or anything that can compare to HIS fullness..

Never have the fear of feeling lonely, for HE is always there!!

May God Bless You All J
