The Advocate

Beloved–

And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Advocate, who will never leave you. He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth . . . But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.  (from the book of John)

During my first 18 months as a believer the Lord guided me to a group of believers that studied the Bible verse-by-verse and in context.  And yet, it took me another 5 years before I began to faithfully read the Word on a daily basis.  Chaos had to reign supreme in my life before I first heard the Holy Spirit speak to me very clearly.  I continue to seek the Holy Spirit’s leading so that I don’t do anything, say anything, feel anything or think anything that doesn’t come directly from the Lord.  I pray for you to desire to be guided by the God who is . . . Father, Son and Holy Spirit! 

Luv Ya!

PTLGA!

Beloved–

You made all the delicate, inner parts of my body and knit me together in my mother’s womb.  Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!  Your workmanship is marvelous—how well I know it. (from Psalms)

I confess my sin of not completely trusting the Lord in the medical journey with my husband.  He had his annual medical checkup.  The doctor said that his laboratory results were outside the normal parameters. Over the next eight months more and assorted tests were scheduled including 3 invasive procedures.  The doctors have now pronounced him “good-to-go.”  I’m praising my Lord God Almighty for his blessing, grace, mercy and forgiveness.  Please know that an unwillingness to be conformed to the Lord’s will caused me much suffering of my own making.  Choose HIS way!

Luv Ya!

Listen carefully

Beloved–

Victory in Christ: In the same way the Spirit also helps our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as we should, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groanings too deep for words; and He who searches the hearts knows what the mind of the Spirit is, because He intercedes for the saints according to the will of God.  (from Romans)

I was being berated and bullied by a dear friend; I was overcome with grief,  I just couldn’t understand what or why.  Then, I heard the Spirit speak to me “is this the person you have always known?”  No, no, I cried and at once calm reigned, I had recognized my attacker and he lost his power.  I pray for you to daily experience the presence of the God who is  . . . Father,  Son and Holy Spirit!

Luv Ya!

He Knows

Beloved–

For the word of the Lord holds true, and we can trust everything he does . . . He made their hearts, so he understands everything they do.  (from Psalms)

Reading and re-reading the Bible with faith I can learn God’s perfect will for me to follow.  I also learned that trying to stay on his path using my own wisdom, leads to the bushes of chaos because I didn’t focus on my leader.  I pray for you to focus on the God who is . . . Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

Luv Ya!
