Spending Time With My Father

Let's Pray:

2011-11-08T12:34:00.001-05:00

Father I thank you for waking us this morning and for the gentle rest we received last night. I thank you for being the awesome father, nurturer, and provider that you are. Lord on this day my heart is heavy as I look at the negative things going on around me and the increase of violence occurring in every city and state. Yet, I know that you said in your word these things would happen and

With elegance and grace he's weaved his way into facets of me Awakening feelings I never knew existedEntry into my heart this man has been givenWith the ability to view areas not seen by the natural eyeOr touch by a loving handThis man The one I didn't believe existYet, prayed for endlessly Has shined a light where darkness dwell and emptiness called homeA corner where dreams of true love had

In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried to my God: and he did hear my voice out of his temple, and to his ears. 2 Samuel 22:7 Often times I think we spend more time magnifying the problems in our lives than we do looking to Jesus for the solution. The enemy is crafty, he knows how to make circumstances appear larger than life. If given the opportunity he'll help you focus on the

Are We There Yet?

I'm not there yet. You know that place where when insulted, hurt and, wounded by someone I'm able to shake the dirt off my feet and move on. I'm striving to get there, it's my goal to mirror Christ, pray for my enemies, and smile in the face of the one whose sole purpose is to hurt me. I want to be so in-tune with the father that I can brush off insults, leaving them lost and forgotten like

What In Hell Do You Want... That was the question posed to the congregation this Sunday. The minister started off by saying how lightly we tend to take the word. Often used to emphasise a point. We've heard it time and time again, it's cold as...hot as...I m hungry as..tired as..mad as and, the dreaded go to... one could go on and on but in actuality, hell is where Satan and his fallen angles

And those who know Your name will put their trust in You;For You, LORD, have not forsaken those who seek You.(psalm 9:10) I've been at this place before. A place where I've put my trust in someone praying for the best but expecting the worse. What does one do with that? As my plan is to pace myself remembering past mistakes, haunts, sorrows and trying desperately not to let history of doom

He is the potter I am the clay Slowly, and carefully he continues to strip away molding as he discards of useless pieces, Old haunts and negativity has been brought to surface rearranging my thoughts, responses and actions He challenges me to walk on waters unseen going further and deeper than I've ever gone before Realizing I m no swimmer He leads me into deeper waters without the comfort of an

Treated as less than all the while hanging as more thanCan you imagine what He endured for us? Picture Him hanging there,. Nails in his hands, nails in his feet, thorns wrapped around his head as the sweat of His brow drenched his body with blood. Can you imagine the pain, the agony,and the prayer. He didn't ask the Father to kill them. He didn't ask Him to mask or take away his pain

They nailed him to the cross, Pierced him in His side Laughed at His agony Made a joke of His pain Ridiculed and spit on He hung there On that cross And He Jesus Said.... Father, forgive them for they no not what they do. It brings tears to my eyes when I think about the sacrifice of love He endured for us. A love that can't be compared to any other. A love that allowed HiM to to see

3rd John 1:2Beloved, I pray that you may prosper in every way and [that your body] may keep well even as [I know] your soul keep well and prosper.(amp version) Many friends on FB left well wishes for the coming New Year. I believe my New Years status stated something like, ' Take the time to spend with those you love because tomorrows not promised..If you have no time for me while I'm living

John 13:34-35 34 “A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.” The scripture reads so clearly...Love one another...How often have you hear a Christian sister or brother say, 'I love you with the love of the Lord.' Without thinking I believe some don't

So this is the mode He has me in. It's funny the things God uses in us to get out of us what he wants. Sharmond is constantly on my mind. I miss her more and more as the days progress. When things are happening in my life or a simple thought enters my mind I want to pick up the phone and call her if only to hear her voice and seek her opinion. God I miss her... I believe the journey He has

Sharmond was a woman character, her love of family, friends and life, was a gift from God and His gift to us. As I think about those who've passed on and in our sorrow we search for clarity or just a glimpse of understanding. Some of us question why this person was taken away and why prayers of healing or extended life wasn't answered or wasn't answered in the restoring fashion we'd prayed

I'm trying to wrap my mind around the fact that my friend is gone. The thought of only seeing her in pictures and /or old video is one I find hard to bear. It's amazing when you think about how often we take the relationships we have with others for granted. She called me a few days before her passing because she couldn't find Oprah's new network on her Canadian station. We'll I wasn't much
