My Delight Is In The Lord!

In you, Lord, do I give my thanks. I refuse to follow the footsteps of those who will not listen to you. If they should scorn your ways, I will defend you with all my might.

My thoughts and delights are on you Lord! I want to drink from your living water. When the fiery trials and temptations come, I shall not wither. I will stand firm on your promises, Oh Lord. I will keep on producing your spiritual fruit and love.

How about you? What delight has the Lord given you lately?

Bless Helpers And Prayer Warriors This Day!

God's protection for me has been marvelous. Yesterday I had to go to the Dr. and get some medicine; I knew it was a sinus infection; my face truly was hurting. So I am so thankful that's all it is. Brothers and sisters in Christ often share and encourage each other in God's love. Tiny clusters of believers form, heling up needs in prayer. It makes me feel God is healing the downtrodden. These are the helpers and prayer warriors. Are you one?

I'm thankful God helps me shed my pride and take the step to get help from my Dr. I'll be up and at 'em real soon. Just need the rest and His love to surround me and give me comfort. Be blessed this day.

Much Love,
Carol

Lots of Posts!!!

I apologize profusely that I do not blog every day. I guess FB took over for me. I do think about you every single day and pray that if you read them still, please know I pray for you and love your comments! God is sooooooo wonderful and I fully rely on Him to run all our lives. Let me hear from you. II Tim. 2:15 - I love that scripture! How about you?

Stay Close To God

He will see you through. Rely fully on Him. Call upon Him in prayer, snuggle up to Him and ask for His help with ANY problem you have! That's why He is there. His promises in the Bible are marvelous to read when you don't know what to do. But, this will be short and sweet, stay close to Him and He will carry you through!!!!! Happy Friday!

A Plate Of Cookies

My hubby has been counting carbs so he doesn't get the plate of cookies any more! I always enjoyed making homemade cookies. Now everything leads to diebetic issues. I know I can't eat sugar; it hypes me. I always felt like it was me expressing my love and concern for others through my giving cookies or banana bread. I felt like I was showing my love for the Lord!

Jesus demonstrated giving through his healing, his teaching, and the ultimate gift of his life. Love was the motivator of all He did. We, too, can love others by giving of our help to them. In Luke 6:38 we give, God will give back to us. Our giving doesn't have to be in large quantities. God blesses the small things that we do for others. Giving is like a boomerang; whatever we give usually comes back, just like the plate of cookies I would give!

Thank the Lord, our generous Provider has given us what we need. Help us, Lord to give back to you by giving to others, no matter how small the gift may be.

A day without giving is a day without love.

What Do You Do When You Want To Do Nothing?

I will be the first to say: I still do nothing. Sometimes women carry a heavy load and they're up to the level that we need a rest!

Our daughter asked me what I did yesterday and I said ZERO, nothing! She said she felt that way and is it wrong? Because I said if we don't take care of us, we would have nothing.

So, enjoy your DOING NOTHING DAY and forgive yourself. Just enjoy!!! I really believe God will bless you for taking care of yourselt instead of being a bother to self or people you are around.

ENJOY, try it! It's God's blessings for letter you have rest, joy, peace and a great day! Have you ever done NOTHING? Share what you do or can you let yourself do it?

Our Heavenly Father

Now that my birthday is over, I can concentrate on my beloved blog!

My eyes were opened to how truly wonderful our Heavenly Father is. Since that time, my relationship with Him has never been the same. In Him, I have found all that I have ever needed and now I know the real meaning of peace and happiness. Whatever it is you may be facing, Jesus loves you with a love like no other.

If you will draw close to Him by reading His words, speaking them, and believing them with your heart, then His promises and truths will begin to grow strong within you.

God is forgiving and merciful and we should give Him love and thankfulness for being our Father!
