My Plans Towards You

Today on Jewels of Jesus, I am talking about the purpose we all have in life. So often I struggle with worry, doubt and many other things. Read more here....

We All Have a Purpose....

Today I wrote a post at Jewels of Jesus. I have recently joined the group of young ladies striving to be an encouragement to others. Today we are looking at having a purpose. Join us there!

Tears streamed down the little girl's face. She just didn't

understand why mommy and daddy weren't coming home....read more

The Brink of a New Year!

 A new year is upon us!

And I wonder where 2013 has gone....

2013 brought many changes, trials, blessings, times of crying and of laughter.

Looking back I have seen the hand of God in more than one situation and I am blessed....

But still in my humanness, standing on the brink of 2014; I will admit that I am somewhat scared...maybe confused or afraid of the possible changes that may come.

Change is hard, I will be the first to admit. But change can often make us stronger. Maybe it painfully breaks us first, and then molds us into a new being...or just provides stability to what we already are.

But however we feel does not change the obvious of an unknown future...

With that I am glad of the promise that I can cling to:

I don't know about tomorrow...

BUT I KNOW WHO HOLDS TOMORROW 

&

I KNOW WHO HOLDS MY HAND!

"Are not two sparrows sold for a farthing? and one of them shall not fall on the ground without your Father. But the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows." (Matt 10:29-31 KJV)

"So do not worry or be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will have worries and anxieties of its own. Sufficient for each day is its own trouble." (Matt 6:34 AMP)

And though I struggle with worrying about the unknown, I remind myself of the God that I serve. He knows tomorrow and He is there to walk me through! And for that, I am truly thankful. I can't imagine how life would be without a loving God by my side.

With that I leave a final verse:

"Casting all your care upon him, for he careth for you" (1 Peter 5:7 KJV)

This World Is Not My Home! (Video Post)

This world is not my home! 

Reminded this morning of the need to "be holy, for I am holy" (Lev 11:44-45). We are in this world, but not of this world. We are citizens of a heavenly place and we anticipate that which awaits. I can't wait to go home...

but until then...

and what a day that will be!

May the Lord bless you with a wonderful day!

Does Anybody Hear Her?

This song by Casting Crowns has spoke to my heart a lot this week. Do I really stop and listen to what people are saying to me or am I too busy to care? May you be blessed!

Just As I Am

Just as I am, without one plea, 

But that Thy blood was shed for me, 

And that Thou bidst me come to Thee, 

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, and waiting not 

To rid my soul of one dark blot,

 To Thee whose blood can cleanse each spot, 

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, though tossed about 

With many a conflict, many a doubt, 

Fightings and fears within, without, 

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, poor, wretched, blind; 

Sight, riches, healing of the mind,

Yea, all I need in Thee to find, 

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, Thou wilt receive,

Wilt welcome, pardon, cleanse, relieve;

Because Thy promise I believe,

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, Thy love unknown 

Hath broken every barrier down;

Now, to be Thine, yea, Thine alone, 

O Lamb of God, I come, I come.

Just as I am, of that free love 

The breadth, length, depth, and height to prove, 

Here for a season, then above, 

O Lamb of God, I come, I come!
