What the fulfillment of Gods promise depends on

The fulfillment of God’s promise depends entirely on trusting God and his way, and then simply embracing him and what he does. God’s promise arrives as pure gift. That’s the only way everyone can be sure to get in on it. – Romans 4:16 (Message)

A Prayer of Surrender

Father God

I realize that I haven’t done everything right, i realize that I have wasted time trying to do it my own way.

All you have ever wanted from me is my trust, and yet I struggle.

I think about the people that have let me down, and I have projected those fears on you.

As a result I have a hard time believing that You forever have the best of intentions for me. 

That I can trust You fully and completely to lead and guide me.

But when I think of how loving, kind, and merciful that you have been to me, I cannot help but want to be one who walks closely with you, fully trusting you to lead me where You want me to be.

So change my heart God,  make me into the fiercely loyal child that you want me to be.

Remind me that this life is not my own.

Help me to daily follow your lead, as I daily choose to lay it all down at the foot of the Cross.

I make a choice to trust you fully for my future,

And the future of those I love.

I lay all of my fears, worries, struggles, and doubts down.

And I say with all my heart

You lead, Ill follow.

In Jesus Name I pray.

Amen!

 

 

Why today will change everything and how you can help

Signs
I have done it.

I have not done it well, but I have waited on God, I have wanted His will for my life and acted on it to the best of my ability.

It is now down to the wire. I am supposed to move by August 1st, and while He provided the funds to travel, no door has opened for England so by tomorrow will have a choice to make.

Today I am specifically going to spend the day with God, seeking His face.

I am getting on a bus and heading to a place where it will be just me and God.

As I was starting to write this blog someone posted on Facebook, “PROVISION has already been PROVIDED because of your, PASSION to PURSUE His PURPOSE and His PLAN.”

I am claiming that word. I believing God that He already provided, I just need to see His full provision in the natural.

Will you please join me in praying that I am able to get a job in England or somehow get in with a visa.

I have no motive other than to do what God has called me to do. I am willing to go anywhere or do anything that He leads me to do.

He has lead me to believe for the seemingly impossible.

Maybe because someone needs to see that He is the God who makes all things possible!!

So I ask again,fellow Children of God, please join me in praying God perfect will for my life, and the lives of my children.

As you pray for me I will be also praying for you. God knows who you are and what you need.

May the miracles needed in all our lives reach others for the one who gave His life for us!!

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!!!

I trust in Jesus
