FEELING UNWORTHY


Some days I feel so unworthy! 

I look at myself today and examine my attitude and wonder why He puts up with me! Such love and acceptance can only come from Love Himself. The essence of Love. For several days I inwardly complained about situations I found myself in. These are necessary activities that I was getting weary of. Therefore, I would hold myself back from doing good. Outwardly you would have never known it, but He knew. Have you ever found yourself in that state? 

Yesterday I had the opportunity to have lunch with a dear friend. She kept saying over and over again how blessed we are, how favored we are, and how God is always providing for us. Every word out of her mouth convicted me. I agreed I am blessed and favored and spoiled by a God who loves me. 

Fast forward to today: The sermon at church continued to convict me. It was about going the extra mile, without complaining, but giving more of myself than what was expected. OUCH! God was at it again. My heart began to soften against the conviction and I accepted what the Holy Spirit was bringing to my attention. The choice is mine. I am a child of the King, I need to act like it.

DO YOU KNOW A SECRET?

God's Word is filled with secret things He has given us to explore. His Word is not a mystery, only it is hidden from those who refuse to seek its meaning. Take time today to seek His Truths. Philippians 4:10-13 says "Think on these things ... what is true, worthy of reverence, honorable, seemly, just, pure lovely and loveable, kind and winsome, gracious, virtue and excellence, worthy of praise. We must fix our mind on these things - they all describe our Jesus. Phil. 4:9 instructs us to practice what we see and hear and to model our lives after that. Then the God of Peace will be with us. (We will have an untroubled, undisturbed well-being) Phil. 4:11 - Oh, to learn to be content in whatever state I am in! Wonderful in concept but much harder to live. To be satisfied and not disturbed or disquieted, no matter where I am. Have you learned the secret? To think on these things? Also, in every situation that comes, that our strength lies in Christ who gives us the power

Watch Out For Sharks!!

W atch out for sharks! As I was watching the news, they were reporting about the sharks in Florida swimming very close to the shallow water of the shores. It was amazing looking down on them, seeing them swimming and stalking. A nd G od said we need to watch out for sharks! This is how the enemy is moving today. He is swimming in the shallow waters, boldly getting closer and closer seeking whom he may devour. T hen as  I was observing the video looking down on these sharks, God reminded me that we should be seeing the enemy for who he is. We can see what others cannot, we see through the eyes of the Spirit. We can be aware of the enemy and his plan to attack if we see through and in the Spirit. But we must be above the enemy, in the Spirit realm. C hoosing to play  in the shallow water is dangerous. Do not in anyway give place to the enemy by playing in his shallow waters. Be observant, be diligent, be aware because the sharks are circling ready to devour. Don't test the wate

My first book Destiny's Journey is a story of hope. A biography that reads like a novel. It will take you along in my journey from despair to peace and comfort. It shows how one life can be affected and transformed when it is turned over to a loving Father. I would love to hear your comments and input. The second book Speak, Lord, for your servant is listenin g  is a devotional that will give you simple nuggets of truth to apply to your life and your day to day living. These developed in my quiet times with the Lord as He spoke a word or a phrase to my heart and then as I questioned Him He would expand on that word. He is a loving God.
