Somewhere In Between

Greetings to my dear sisters-in-Christ,

Today, in fact it started at the beginning of this month actually, I am somewhere in between where I want to be and where God has planned and purposed me to be. It most definitely has me challenging myself on holding onto that which is to be most treasured. Matthew 6: 20, 21. So many changes and yet God reminds me that He is changeless. There are two situations that have come into my life that I want to be able to fix and know that in my own strength this is not possible. And even if I did fix it would it be what the Lord willed for that life and situation.


Our pastor has stated that our church will be having 10 days of fasting and prayer to begin the first of September.


In September of every year I take a spiritual journey.

I asked of the Lord if this is something I should do. His response came from reading His word, John 4:34, "Jesus saith unto them, My meat(food) is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.

I do realize that these are my random thoughts and most definitely makes very clear to you, my dear sisters-in-Christ, that I am somewhere in between.

Glorious Abba, how marvelous and wonderful are Your Ways, how magnificent are Your thoughts. Lord I bring before Your Precious Throne of Grace this day my prayer. Heavenly Father in the midst of the turmoil and pain and anxiousness and darkness and dimness may Your TRUTH be heard from Heaven. May Your leading be evident, may Your blessings be apparent. May each dear sister-in-Christ rise above her situation and be victorious in her life. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Until next week,

In My Corner

Greetings,

My Jesus room has been set up - In one corner I have my wooden cross, framed "Legend of the Dogwood Tree", and 2 Chronicles 16:9 scripture placed over my rocker, where I sit and read and pray. In the other corner is where my computer is. Situated between two windows; the window on my right hand side faces mountain, (mauka) and over my garage roof the mountain protrudes; not quite as magnificent as the Rockies but beautiful for me. On my left side is the ocean (makai). Now I do need to lean forward somewhat to see the ocean because of a house directly blocking my view (just in case you may think that this scenario is perfect). So here I am in my corner and asking our most Sovereign and Glorious and Magnificent Father in Heaven what to say this morning. Phil. 3:13, 14. Yes Lord.

Abba Father, thank You for placing me here in this corner, thank You for allowing my eyes to see the mountain top and the ocean depth but also allowing barriers which cause me to have to reach forth. Lord God I pray for each dear sister-in-Christ this day that she would focus her attention on the invisible. May she forget the things which are behind and reach forth unto those things which are before. Abba Father, come into the corners of our lives and fill them with Your Presence, Your Peace, Your Provision and Your Power. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Until next week,

I'm Back

Greetings dear and most precious Sisters-in-Christ,

What a long time to go without being able to visit with all of you. Because of communication problems and changing our internet providers and moving, I have been without internet until today. But guess what I am back. GOD has so richly blessed us with this new house and with wonderful friends to help us move our STUFF from one place to another. I was so thankful as well as DH being so grateful for all the help and support. When we first decided to move I could not really put into words my feelings on why the hesitation in moving - So, in my wondering it was hidden deep but I kept seeking and my feelings were of losing the memories of the place where we had been for 7 years. Our children had visited us, 5 of our grandchildren had visited, my parents and 1 brother and his family had visited, DH's father, brother and sister's had visited. All the memories of family and conversations and experiences. I didn't want to leave them behind. As I walked down the hallway or sat at the dinner table or walked around the yard I could hear the laughter, I could hear the conversations. I remembered the hugs and joyous times. So, I sought the Lord-and HIS reply, "dear daughter, since the beginning I have wanted to give you so much more than what you have asked for. Yes, these blessings are from me, you received them with thankfulness but now you must once again Trust and Know that I am Your LORD who desires to give You more and more."

Heavenly Father, most Glorious and Gracious and Gentle are You, our most Sovereign LORD. I pray for each dear sister-in-Christ that her yesterday be a memory, that her today be blessed and that her tomorrow be filled with expectancy of Hope and Joy and Peace. Lord as each dear sister-in-Christ lives her day, may Your Words found in Psalm 31:3 and 33:21 be upon her lips and in her heart and on her mind. Lord come abide in the lives and may You give more and more and more. In Jesus Name, Amen.

Until next week,
