Do not be anxious (Philippians 4:6)

Scripture of the Day: Philippians 4:6

 Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God.

 Well, yesterday was another miraculous day! For the past couple of months, I have been scheduled to have surgery for some large, complex, ovarian cysts. Surgery was to be Thursday. But...with the healing that happened in the hospital in August my awesome husband was pretty sure God healed me of everything so he wanted me to have an ultrasound before surgery to make sure the cysts were still there. Long story short, the cysts are still there, but both have shrunk and surgery is no longer needed! I have an ultrasound again in 2 months to check their size, but am feeling positive that things will be fine!

 Can anyone join me in praising the Lord??! 

 This morning I was praying for a verse that summed this up and rather than find one on healing, the verse above came right to mind.  Friend, don't worry about anything. Your health, your wealth, or your current situation. Always be thankful for what you do have and present with all your heart, your requests to God. He hears you...and he can work miracles!

 In closing, I will offer you some lyrics to one of my son's favorite songs: "My God is so big, so strong and so mighty, there's nothing my God cannot do!"

I love you Lord (Psalm 100:2)

Scripture of the Day: Psalm 100:2  Worship the LORD with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. Starting last fall, my husband began singing the song "I Love you Lord," to our kiddo before he went to bed, as a lullaby of sorts. The lyrics are simple: I love you Lord, and I lift my voice to worship you, oh my soul rejoice! Take joy, my King, in what you hear, may it be a sweet, sweet, sound in your ear. It has since become a very popular song in our house! We sing it before nap time, bed time, and I hum it when sometimes when our little guy is upset or over tired. I love singing it slow and asking him to sing with me – at this point he knows most of the words and there is really nothing sweeter than hearing that little voice sing “I yuv you yord,”  (no “r’s” yet you see)! The song has also worked it's way into my personal worship of the Lord. The words are meant for Him to hear and I think he loves to hear them sung! I find that singing that j...

What is Your Lie?

By now, you should know I like songs. I like Christian songs because their words don't put any "yuck" in my head and I don't have to worry about what little ears are taking in when they are on! Some touch me deep and here are the lyrics to part of a new favorite: Reckless Love by Cory Asbury There's no shadow you won't light up, Mountain you won't climb up Coming after me... There's no wall you won't kick down, Lie you won't tear down, Coming after me... Friends. Focus on that last point: There's no lie God won't tear down. What is your lie? What lie, or even lies, do you believe about yourself? What lies run over and over in your head until they don't feel like lies anymore? What hurts have you told yourself you deserve? What unkindness have you accepted as your due? What actions have you justified for others? What fault have you accepted that really isn't yours? What forgiveness have you felt unworthy of? I'm...

From the mouth's of babes

I'm writing this more for prosperity's sake and because I need to try and wrap my head around a conversation I just had with my seven year old. Mandisa's song "Bleed the Same" was playing in the car...my kiddo asks me what she is actually saying because he hears "We all be the same." I explained how it meant that regardless of skin color, or lots of other things really, we all bleed the same. On the inside, we are all the same. And then the zinger. He says, "We all look the same inside. Except our hearts." "Oh really?" Says I. "Yes," says he "because of sin. I'm talking on a spiritual level." AAAHHHHH!!! Our hearts all look different because of sin in the my mind of my baby. And I bet you that in the eyes of God, who can see the heart in a different light and who judges it's motivations, our hearts all DO look different. When I think of a heart full of sin, I think of black and decay instead o...
