Our job is to be a revealer of the unseen God

Philippians 4:4-7 Rejoice in the Lord ALWAYS and again I say REJOICE!!! Paul wrote from prison.


Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.


When u really want something it's very easy to hear God say YES because you want it so bad. In that action you have then given into the flesh and made yourself a god. That's a consequence of the flesh.


If u want to continue walking in your maturity go to God in prayer and petition with thanksgiving, present your request unto God.

Prayer puts you outside of yourself and going before God showing that you don't have the answers.


Be honest with God!!! He knows everything about you and can handle your being honest about your requests.


The prayer and petition has nothing to do with getting the "thing" it's about BEING in HIS will!!!


Make sure your feelings line up with the Word of God.


Hebrews 4:12 the Word of God is living and active. Sharper than any double edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.


2 Corinthians 10:4-5 we take captive EVERY THOUGHT captive to make it obedient to Christ.


Philippians 4:8-9 whatever is true, noble, right, pure, lovely and admirable - whatever you have learned or received or heard from me (Paul), or seen in me (Paul) - put it into practice.

Our prayer is to become like Paul, not like the ones Paul is writing to.

We are the revealer of the unseen God!!!

A Little Snow Day Organizing...

Image
It's funny how I don't wake up with a list to "do" these things...they just happen out of the ordinary. Laura over at Org Junkie is hosting 52 weeks of organizing. When she started with the first week I said no way...I can't possibly participate in that this year...well - the people that linked up on week #3 got me enticed to 'organize' and organize I did. When my mom died I got a few of her gadgets...and I have my own gadgets already so I really was running out of "room" for all these gadgets. (the Waffle Maker, George Foreman, Crock Pot, Bread Maker, Toaster, Food Saver, and Blender...yikes - that's alot of gadgets...I have more but they are stored away:) The goal was to get all of these gadgets except the crock pot and toaster stored away. While I didn't get pics of these out and about on my counter...they all now have their own home and my counter is BEAUTIFUL. First, I started with the pantry, in hopes of getting some of the can

The Run…It’s Done!!!

Image
I was emotional leading up to the event and I really thought it was going to be an emotional day for me but it really wasn’t and that was a great relief! I’m trying to stop my mind thinking that healing needs to look like this or that (that I needed to be all emotional for the healing/past of this event to take place). I feel that God had me run for a reason...I’m still trying to process what that reason is. (Maybe there’ll be a “Run for Raped & Sexually Abused Victims”) Nevertheless, I know that God had me run “For such a time as THIS”!!! Maybe you would continue to pray for me that God would reveal anything He wants to from this, that I’ll hear his voice just as clearly as I did when He told me to “Choose to Run”. The run itself was difficult but good. I marveled at the symbolism of the run compared to my true life event – there were 13 miles to symbolize my 13 years before being raped and .10 miles to run to the police station /the end...13.1 never felt SO good!!! (Freedom!!!)
