Shhhhhh

  Women, one of God’s most precious creations. We are complicated. We are loved. We are complex. We are women. We want to connect yet we let no one in. We are judged yet we judge. Perhaps we are our own worst critics. We want more, but we cant have more. We strive to succeed and be what we want yet it is never enough. We want to connect with other women yet we shut them out. We strive for Unity yet Satan is always in the way. “Be still and know that I am with you” say it again and again. I yell God where are you and He says nothing or does He? He whispers ever so softly shhhhh my child just listen, you will know someday. Shhhh my child just Be still and know that I am with you!  God, this is not what I want, this is not what I want to be doing. God why aren't you here and listening? Why aren't you telling me the words I need to hear? Why aren't you giving me the words to say? I am quiet God and I am listening. What is it you so want me to hear? He whispers shh Be still and...

Grace

We just read a chapter in a book on Grace. I love God’s grace and always talk about it and what not. I love how this book took some things and put them in a perspective way better than I ever can. Oh wait it is a book after all and he is an author also all of which I am not. Then I heard this song for the first time. It is the most beautiful song. Hillsong United “Like and Avalanche” all I have to say is this…….                       Beautiful God,            I find myself here on my knees again, caught up in grace like an avalanche. Nothing compares to this love, love, love burning in my heart!!! Check out the song. It has a strong message and is amazing at that!

I Can!

Another beautiful morning here in Western Washington! God is gracing us with his everlasting presence. The sunset is beautiful and the weather is mild. What more can we ask for? Well, okay, really don’t answer that!! My last couple of days has surely brought thoughts to my head and the one thought that sticks over and over again is, I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. As I say that over and over it keeps coming up in daily life. It was in a movie I watched the other day and today on Facebook it was on someone's status. So I recite it a lot right now. There are more but as for now I have to get some kiddos off to school. Thoughts to ponder today: You can do all things through Him who strengthens you! Go about your day and when you feel as if you can’t, YOU CAN!!!
