Hope Discovered

Greetings to you, we are truly blessed to be here. On this sixth day of the fourth month in the year R&R(ReCover&ReStore). I continue my discovery during my recovery. I recognize my space and my place. I walk in faith since I have discovered Hope. I discovered that Hope creates the will to live, to stand, to go on. I discovered that hope will not make me ashamed during my tribulation. I discovered that Hope is one of the three virtues that abide beside faith and charity. I discovered that Hope gives courage, tenacity and strength to endure...just as Jesus did when He went to the Cross, despising the shame for the Joy that was set before him. I discovered that Hope lifts you up out of the pit of despair and gives you the power to run when your feet have failed you. I discovered that Hope is like the dew in the morning, simply resting upon my brow. I discovered Hope, is the unction to function. Hope is the Strive to keep you alive.
Without hope where would we be? I discovered it here, in this place on my journey. When it seemed like nothing was going according to the vision I saw, when the dreams turned into nightmares; when the joy in the morning turned into weeping in midnight hour. Hope... where are you? I need you, I long for you. Is there more than just this? At one point, I did loose it, my hope. I discovered it though, I had left it at the last fire, it was being consumed by my guilt and my tears...but then, I rose, like a woman out of sleep, or one in a coma. I discovered that if I could just grab onto a glimmer of hope, a slither of hope and phantom of hope even, I would be able to rise. I discovered that if in this life...in these people, in the things I can see, if they were the only things I had hope in...I would be so miserable. So, I have discovered that I must build my hope on nothing less than Jesus' blood and righteousness. No name, no frame, my hope is beyond this temporal madness. Therefore, I can stand, I can endure, I can go on. As we were reminded last week...Why are you worried, disquieted, uneasy...Don't you have hope in God? Yes, You Do have hope in God!!!!

Hello Love...

Page 8, Part 2, Chapter 2016 embracing M.E. (My Eve-Olution).  Sitting here reflecting on you.  In awe and appreciation of your power in every area of life.  Recognizing that you have enabled me, (in a good way) with a level of strength beyond my human ability.  Because of you, I am confident that all things will work out for my good.  You have guided and provided, opened and closed, lifted and brought down, wounded and healed, mortified and made alive.  You are amazing.  I just wanted to acknowledge you once again as the source of my strength and the strength of my life.  No one else gets the credit for who I am, no one else would tolerate me, with my flaws and short-comings like you have or like you can, no one else is worthy of all of me except you who has given me all of you.  So, I say with all the passion and tenacity that you have instilled in me hello Love, hello!  Thank you for the of the most abundant life!

Looking back over Turned pages....

As I turn to page 25, chapter 2012, I have taken a moment, just a moment to turn back and review some of the previous chapters.  I look back and am reminded of the miracles I have experienced.  I am reminded of the miracle that I am.  As I look back, just a few chapters, I see an amazing story of a woman kept, a soul saved, a heart committed to the lover there of.  As I look back, I see that on several occasions, I did not understand what was going on at the time of the actual writing, but now, I can see that everything is working together for good.  I read over places where the challenges seemed overwhelming and changes did not make sense, but as I read further, I saw the benefit of each and every trial.  I look back and review the pages of this book, the author is brilliant, the pieces did not seem to fit, but He brought them all together.  Just like a puzzle, I can now see every piece fitly joined together.  I did not notice then...

EXPEMPLIFY EXCELLENCE

Greetings my friends, A great day to be here my sister-friends....it is the seventeenth day of the second month in the year of FULLNESS AND GLORY. I am so blessed to be learning my ABC's along with you. "this is not for wimps". Today, we share E....EXEMPLIFY EXCELLENCE. In this world of "just getting by attitudes", we certainly experience so many mediocre results. I am always encouraged when I realize that being in the image and likeness of God...I should never fail to put forth the efforts that will EXEMPLIFY EXCELLENCE. If I am created in the image of an all-wise, perfect God, who has numbered the hairs on my head...and If He has empowered me with HIM....to fulfill a purpose here on earth. Everything I do, should reflect the perfection and excellence of my creator. I cannot and will not settle for "Just so", I must, we must strive to EXEMPLIFY EXCELLENCE in every area, in every situation, in our talking and walking in our driving and striving...
