--------------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.

GOD IS MOVING - PRAISE THE LORD

I have been blessed this week while fasting and seeking God. To see God move the way He wants to is amazing. It is sad to know that we hinder what He wants to do much of the time, but encouraging knowing that as a body we are once again putting down the flesh and letting God have His way. Wednesday night prayer was awesome, God really touched lives and it was amazing to see, then tonight at the Church of Praise was awesome. The word came forth in power and although the enemy had other plans, God had made provisions for His Will to be done and had prayer going on throughout the service which I believe broke the hard hearted, broke a rebellious spirit and allowed God to have His way! Glory to God!!! I know tonight there were many who made the decision to run after the Lord, and to do what they know to do by the Law. I am grateful to God I was able to witness the miraculous this week. When we are weak, the Lord is strong. I am blessed to see all that God is doing in my brothers and sisters and it gives me such Hope for others as well. As we turn to Him, fellowship intimately with Him, and dwell in His presence, we are going to see whole households saved, healings, deliverance, the broken heart mended, and purity and humbleness reign once again, not only in the house of God, but everywhere we are willing to share the goodness of the Lord. Joy unspeakable, that’s what I am talking about. Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God and all it takes is faith the size of a mustard seed. Dare to dream, dare to trust, dare to believe and have faith in the all mighty.
We are going to be gone for the next week or so and even though we are going on VACATION, I find myself only half hearted because I don't want to miss a prayer meeting or a church service, although I know that please the Lord in itself after past actions. There again, Glory to God for His UNCONDITIONAL LOVE and Faithfulness, mercy and grace. See you Soon and God Bless You! Pray that we would have a wonderful time of fellowship and that God would be the center of it, seeds planted and then watered along the way.

Joy - Joy - Joy - Joy - Joy - Joy - Joy - Joy - Joy

John 15:9-17

9 "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. 13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. 14 You are my friends if you do what I command. 15 I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. 16 You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit-fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name. 17 This is my command: Love each other.
NIV

Do you see as I do the importance of love and by responding with Love to the Lord and to others, God blesses us in mighty ways. He is looking for a people to follow -
God is so good! Tonight He so totally filled me with His joy. It is amazing to me how God will bless you when you are just about loving Him and worshipping Him. It was glorious and I must say the praise and worship as well as the word today from both pastors was incredible. The anointing tonight was so very strong and I entered into His presence with no thoughts outside of HIM, He was the focus of the service and I know that I was not alone in my response to Him or my adoration of Him. He was faithful to a hungry people. Tonight I once again surrendered to My Lord with all I have within me and all that I am. I emptied myself out to Him until there was nothing left of me except the desire for Him to once again reign in my life, directing my path. Thank you Lord for never leaving me or forsaking me, for loving me when I was unlovable and for restoring to me the Love I had for you and making it once again the priority. I thank you Lord for restoration of friends and the blessing of new friends, Lord you are doing exceedingly and abundantly more than I could ask or think of in this area, I am blessed and excited to be with those who love you as I do and who want to be your hands, feet, eyes and ears, compassion and love in this world we live in at present. You are awesome God and I am so totally in Love with you, yes Lord, in love with you in a way that I haven't been for a long time, truth be known, it feels more intense, more real than it ever did in the past, once again proving how wonderful you are. Thank you Lord for loving us, for giving your life up for us so that we can dwell with you forever, for all eternity!!! With a full and overflowing heart I am going to go to bed with the peace and rest of God ministering to me and praying that I will have dreams and visions of you and if not tonight, one day soon I pray that I would receive a visitation from You!
