Beloved–

 “I am leaving you with a gift—peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give is a gift the world cannot give. So don’t be troubled or afraid.  I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world. (from the book of John)

A life plagued with chaos frequently drives a person into the arms of Jesus Christ. 

I was going down for the third time when I heard the message of the Good News and Christ’s love for me.  God sent his  Son to earth to bring the promised message of life eternal. By faith, believing that Jesus Christ is the son of God, that his shed blood on the cross is sufficient to pay my sin debt and that his death, burial and resurrection is the guarantee of Life eternal.  

The chaos continued but solutions were readily available when I focused on the planner rather than the attacker.  I pray for you to run into the arms of your Savior who loves you beyond measure. 

Luv Ya!

Beloved–

So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you.  Let there be tears for what you have done. Let there be sorrow and deep grief. Let there be sadness instead of laughter, and gloom instead of joy . . . Be still, and know that I am God!  I will be honored by every nation.  I will be honored throughout the world. (from Psalms & James)

God is in control so let go.   My attitude of humility and confession has changed.  I’m aware of the presence of the Holy Spirit. Sometimes it is just a sense that there is someone in the room and other times there is a real conversation.  Mostly I just need to be quiet.  Try it.

Luv Ya!

Beloved–

Wash me clean from my guilt.  Purify me from my sin.  For I recognize my rebellion;  it haunts me day and night. (from Psalms)

Coming face-to-face with the fact that I am a sinner and to realize the fact that my same sinful nature caused my Savior unspeakable pain brought me to despair.  Yet, he forgave me, he covered me with his righteousness, making me presentable in the sight of my heavenly Father.  I pray for you to desire to be covered in his righteousness.

Luv Ya!

Beloved–

For I was born a sinner —-   yes, from the moment my mother conceived me.  But you desire honesty from the womb teaching me wisdom even there. (from Psalms)

I was born a “dishwater blonde.”  All of my children were born with blonde hair that turned to light brown. Yet I have a grandchild that has red hair.  It all depends on which physical traits are stronger.  The strongest character trait that we ALL  inherited from grandpa Adam is our sinful nature . . .the first impulse is to walk through the puddle instead of walking around it.  Praise God that he loved me so much that he willingly sacrificed His only Son to override my sinful nature.  I pray for you to desire the wisdom of the Holy Spirit that is available for you.

Luv Ya!
