Just Write

Some days, I can feel the words in me swirling like a small tornado. On other days, words are hard to find.

But. Today.

There is no rhythm or reason to the words in my spirit. They swirl with their own life, waiting to be introduced to the world. There is no one story in particular only words that are bursting to be written.

Today, I will write.

From a place that has stained my heart with tears...

From a place that has brought unexplained joy to my soul...

From all that has moved me into a grace that can only be from Jesus himself.

Never mind if the tale of my words jumps from one universe to another, if they intertwine as unmatched threads having no connection whatsoever.

Just write.

Write those things that others can bury within and have them for a rainy day.

Write those things which others can glean nuggets of wisdom on days when wisdom seems to be hidden.

Write those things so that everyone is reminded of how loved and important we are and that we have a purpose.

Write those things that once brought you pain but now give you joy beyond your wildest imagination.

Write portions of your life in truth and transparency, knowing your words will be an anchor of hope to many—or just one.

This year has been indescribable. Since 2020, I've taken a hard inventory of myself and the life I desire for the Kingdom of God. My heart posture has been molded and remolded...….daily.

But the rocks of wisdom I have gained have been etched deep within my soul.

My validation does not come from the things of this world but from Jesus alone.

The rejection that has slammed my heart no longer holds me hostage.

Extend grace as often as possible, just as Jesus does for me.

Compassion is a portion of the heart's lifeline.

Share. It.

Jesus has shown me more compassion than I would ever deserve.

Stay humble in all things at all times. Pride is destructive and has no mercy.

Use Godly wisdom with the things of this world, and never take my eyes off Jesus.

Stay focused!

Turning the other cheek over and over again hurts like the dickens, but the rewards of forgiveness outweigh any false value or narrative in revenge-seeking.

The power of prayer and its effects can never be measured. Prayer seals me, delivers me, protects me, provides for me, and, most importantly, connects me to the One I belong to.

He gives me beauty for my ashes.

He sings over me

I am His daughter.

Loved without measure

I do not know what is around the bend for me or this upside-down world we are living in. But I do know Jesus has it and me. Trust him and stay focused!!

And keep writing!

James 3:13

Who is wise and understanding among you? Let them show it by their good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom.

Her Son.....Our Saviour

This is a post I wrote 4 years ago  (4/8/12) on  "Shakin' the Foundation" blog site. I share it every Easter. I pray it ministers to your hearts.  **************************************************************************** As Easter approaches, I have been thinking alot about Jesus' time here on earth. We have all heard of his birth,his teachings,his signs,wonders and miracles. For the most part, we have been taught his life story from those who had the honor of walking daily with him, from those who witnessed every aspect of his life here. However today I am seeing his life through a mother's eyes....... Mary's eyes.....  As a mom myself, I can feel her joy when she looked into the eyes of her precious son. The miracle that she had been chosen to give birth to. That sweet precious baby boy that sometimes would fall down while playing, the one that cried out to her to pick him up..... Can you imagine looking into those beautiful eyes knowing wh...

Getting My Hinds Feet

Several months ago I received a word from my daddy God telling me He was giving me hinds feet! I became so excited and thrilled not realizing what I was to go through to receive these promised hinds feet. In my mind, I saw it happening all at once.... No more would I struggle to get to the places I was called to go.... I would go leaping and bounding across all the boulders in my path.... There would no longer be traps and snares in my path.... I was climbing my mountain with my new hinds feet!!! But wait....... I now face more trials..... Heavier loads..... More stress..... More obstacles..... Loneliness that is unexplainable..... I look down and I do not see "hinds feet". I see crippled, hurting feet. ~sigh~ I do not understand.... I can't comprehend this journey.... I was promised hinds feet and I now appear to be stumbling my way over these now larger boulders in my path. I want my promised "hinds feet".........

Am I Ready Lord ??

I can speak of my past....... I feel safe in my present.......... But I am nervous for my future...... Excited and nervous wrapped into one. Am I ready Lord?? God's word tells us, He did not give us a spirit of fear, but of love and sound mind. So why am I so nervous?  Maybe I am scared of myself..... ~Sheesh~ Scared I will maybe make the same choices again..... ~Yuck~ Scared the "old" me will resurface and the emotional baggage of my past will consume the me of today..... ~Lord No~ Fearful if I truly allow someone in, I will be rejected.... ~tears~ Or the choices I make will be just that, MY choices and not God's will for my life. ~Sweet Jesus~  My door of isolation has opened, I take my first few steps breathing in the new season that is upon me...... It is a sweet excitement..... Very sweet!  But as refreshing as it is, part of me wants to run back to the sheltered place I hav...
