--------------NEW BEGINNINGS------------

This is the first day of the rest of my life. As the snow melts away and leads to new beginnings, new life, and new seasons, my life is in the same process. I choose to embrace the future and see where it will lead me. I am going to walk into my future blindly, trusting God to lead me all the way.

I'M BELIEVING GOD

I was alone in my hot tub on Saturday night and had opportunity to think about the next day, which was Mother's Day. I probably shouldn't have went there, down memory lane, but I did. I had really been missing Mom and Aunt Connie lately and so of course, I began to talk to God and then to cry and whine to Him. I was feeling pretty sad and although I know that is part of it, I want to just go on without the pain and tears. I was (for once it seems) trying to work my way through it with God when I sensed another presence and it wasn't godly. I began to speak the word of God and command this presence to go in the name of Jesus, I put up my shield and shouted out my statements of faith on my fingers just as I had learned to do in our bible study 1) God is who He says He is, 2) God can do what He says He can do, 3) I am who God says I am, 4) I can do all things through Christ, 5) Gods word is alive and active in me, and then say I'M BELIEVING GOD!!!
It was amazing to me as I thought about it later, how empowered I felt as I used the weapon that God had given me, before, I would have kept on with all the crying and stuff, but instead God supernaturally touched me, strengthed me and helped me to draw upon the Holy Ghost and put the devil to flight. It was encouraging to me, usually I am wishing the next day that I hadn't given in to the enemies attack, I know better, but in the midst of it, it is hard to think, and then when you haven't applied or reacted the way you know you should have, you feel like you are back at square one all over again. That is not what God desires or intends and that isn't what I desire either. I am BELIEVING GOD as I know all the other 28 women are who have joined this bible study. We are hungry for God, we desire to be all that God says we are and we desire to know Him even more intimately than we do now. It is such a blessing to have a strong woman of God lead the study. I love the Lord and I do believe and have faith in Him, but God help me with my unbelief, I unfortunately have that also. May God bless you and keep you and may you too get a revelation of believing God if you haven't already.
