It is never over with God

Long story short. My husband passed away when my daughter was only eleven. They were very close and she was acting out a lot by age 14.

I got to a point where I didn’t know what to do.

I prayed to God and He said, “Don’t discipline her. Just love Her.”

I was more that a little surprised and replied, “God but have you seen her behavior. This girl needs discipline.

Again He said, “Don’t discipline her. Just love her.”

So I listened to Him.

It was not easy, but I stopped trying to change her behavior and focused on being kind to her.

That gave room for God to get a hold of her.

He lead and guided her in ways I could not. It was not long before she gave her life to Jesus and started making positive changes.

Long story short, the kid who at one time in middle school spent weeks in the discipline office, spent the last year as Student Body President of her school. She was chosen by the Senior class to be the speaker at graduation, and is going on to collage to study law in hopes of being a Lawyer.

When God asks you to trust him, when you know it is God, then do it.

Do what He asks even if it is hard or doesn’t make sense.

He knows what He is doing!!!

God’s will be done

Whatever the future holds, whether is is neatly packed and tied with a bow, or messy and the roads are long and hard, whatever you have for me Lord, I am all in., because you first loved me, and that is enough!

Great prayer

Disturb us Lord, when we are too well pleased with ourselves.

When our dreams have come true because we have dreamed too little.

When we arrived safely, because we sailed too closed to the shore.

May this be your prayer of your life

– Sir Francis Drake

I woke up to this…

So I wake up with this song playing in my head, which in itself is not unusual as God often wakes me up with a song, and each time He does it means something.

The song is by Jason Gray, titled, “With every act of love” and has the lyrics (which are the ones I heard).

God put a million,

million doors in the world

For His love to walk through

One of those doors is you

Immediately I thought about England. How He has yet to open the door.

Then I thought of how we used to be a host family for Japanese students.

I always thought it was wonderful how we would meet people though the program that we would never have met otherwise. It was a wonderful experience, both for my family and for the student as well (as I gathered from their goodbye letters).

I know that God has called me to England for the same reason.

There are people I need to meet, and who need to meet me, so that I can be Gods hands and feet.

If anyone speaks, they should do so as one who speaks the very words of God.If anyone serves, they should do so with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen.- 1 Peter 4:11

The “open door” for England has not opened, and yet I know that God will open it soon, as He did not lead me all this way for nothing.

Please join me in praying for me to receive an open door to England, and for the “ministry” that He has called me to will begin to take shape before me.

Please pray also the God will give me the courage and strength to walk through the door, once opened.

I covet all your prayers and will pray for you as well.
