Be AWARE of Thorns and Thistles

My friends and well wishers, Yes, one more day that the Lord has blessed us to be here. He continues to reveal the importance of seed time and harvest. It is the twelfth day of the eleventh month in year 2010. We have planted seeds, here and there and everywhere. We have nurtured those seeds, watered them, ensured they're safety as best we could. We have also received seed for the harvest of our life and spirit. We have nurtured that seed, watered it and determined that it would bear righteous seed. But, somehow, one way or the other...thorns were found growing among our seeds. What are we going to do with the thorns? At least Be AWARE of the Thorns and Thistles They can be painful...in Pauls case, (I Cor. 12:7-10)he tried to get rid of his thorns, but the master had "Allowed the thorns" to keep Paul humble and relying on God. His Grace is sufficient. So, in my spirit, I can understand and appreciate the fact that at times, God allows the thorns in our lives and gives us grace to sustain us. And like Paul, when we are in relationship with God, we will know wheather or not those thorns are for our good or for our demise.

In general, we must Be AWARE of the thorns and thistles...they can, as indicated in Hebrews 6:7-8, cause you to be rejected and even destroyed. Thorns may come, but just stay close to God so that He can reveal to you the purpose of the Thorns. Some may stay and some may be destroyed. No matter what, as you plant, seed and harvest...Be AWARE of the Thorns and Thistles.

Time to Emerge--come out into view

My sister-friends (and others), welcome to Springtime. It is the twenty-second day of the third month in the year R&R(ReCover&ReStore). Today, the spirit of God reminded me that many beautiful things will Emerge , have emerged , from the fire. The end result of the fire will be an amazing truth that cannot be denied. The fiery trials...there are many, but to each his own. My fiery trial is not for you and yours is not for me. God has chosen us all for a unique and divine purpose. He must get a return on the investment He made in us. He invested so much love, talent, power, anointing in us...and His purpose for our lives must be, WILL be fulfilled. Through many dangers and Snares, through mountains high and valleys low, through increase and lack, God is determined that the best of me, the best of you will emerge . Our best self will come out of all of this "stuff of life". This journey is not without purpose. The fire has come, has gone and will come again....

Day TWO

Greetings my friends, today is the second day of the first month in the year of Fullness and Glory. So many incredible things happening, so many memories still fresh in our minds. Looking ahead with hope and looking back with appreciation and gratitude because "I survived", some things that happened in 2008 should have broken me, but, as Lady Brown shared,they just bent me a little. My quesiton is always.....What Glory shall come of this? and God says....when the Glory comes the trial will seem so small.....it can even stand in comparison.....so, today .....please be reminded,......Glory is coming, and then another trial, but this is the only way we can move and grow and complete our purpose....FROM GLORY TO GLORY....hang in there my sisters, You wil be so impressed when you see the finished product. Share your Journey with us...and help someone.....What is your Testimony for His Glory? What was your great trial of 2008.....Cause we have left all the mess behind as we cross...

So Blessed

My mind is just in a place of thanksgiving and gratitude. It is the eleventh day of the fifth month in the year R&R(ReCover&ReStore). Without question, I am blessed. My sister, my friend, take some time to day and just give thanks because you are blessed. Inhale, exhale, you are So blessed . Look around through eyes that can see, you are So blessed . Put one foot on the floor and walk, you are So blessed . Look at your children, your husband, wife, life and loves. You are So blessed . So blessed , that you can't allow anything or anyone to make you doubt that. So blessed , that you can walk on water, just like peter did. So blessed that you have endured the fiery furnace(s) like the three Hebrew men. So blessed you have seen the glory like Isaiah. So blessed you have felt his grace and mercy like Mary Magdeline. So blessed you have given birth to his seed, like Mary. So blessed , despite all the mess, don't you dare stress, God will take care of the rest....
