Giving Thanks for YOU
12:19 PMFrom My Front Porch to Yours |
There is something very intimate about
handwritten mail. One of my favorite
surprises is when I check the mail and there is a note, card, invitation,
something of detail and importance awaiting my eyes and heart to receive. Snail mail from individuals seem to be slowly
becoming a distant art of the past. I
received a letter an actual handwritten letter from a young man now, who just a
few months ago was a student in our youth ministry. His letter was the HIGHLIGHT of my day. I was Ecstatic to hear how well he was doing
at basic. Now that we are in the days of
social media, email, texting, and face time these pieces of art seem to be
fading. Writing a letter, a piece of
your heart, a piece of art is what I long to send everyone who is has taken
time to read my blog. Since I am unable
to know who all has read and do not have your address, I decided to send you a
handwritten card, a piece of art from my heart to yours.
Handwritten Grattitude |
THANK YOU FOR READING! |
I can never begin to explain how the
simple act of writing has been life changing for me. Other than my sweet husband I am not sure
anyone fully understands what writing in the last two weeks has done for my
spirit. My spirit was failing, weakening
in desperation for fulfillment and purpose.
I had been in an ark, floating on an ocean of tears for several
months. I am REDEEMED! I chose thirty-one
days of redemption in order to DIG, PULL, and CLIMB out of a pit of
discouragement.
Standing in Agreement for Healing |
John 12:24 Death brings promises of LIFE |
I am so humbled,
honored, and grateful for all of your kind words. Some of you have asked if you may share my
link to the blog and YES of course you may share. If my weaknesses will give HIM a chance to be
made PERFECT and bring healing to another, then the answer is YES! I will
continue to write and fulfill HIS purposes for my life. Even if what I purposed in my heart years ago
for my life doesn’t come to pass, no longer matters. I will not be discouraged because my life
looks different from my plans. I will
REJOICE for my life is HIS and HIS life is BEAUTIFUL and He is living through
us!
This is HIS story that I am living and by
HIS grace I am set free. I am only a
vessel, mouthpiece to share HIS story of GOOD news. So thank you readers from near and far. You are and will always be close to my heart.
1 Corinthians 1:4-9
The
Message (MSG)
4-6 Every
time I think of you—and I think of you often!—I thank God for your lives of
free and open access to God, given by Jesus. There’s no end to what has
happened in you—it’s beyond speech, beyond knowledge. The evidence of Christ
has been clearly verified in your lives. 7-9 Just think—you don’t need a thing, you’ve got it all! All
God’s gifts are right in front of you as you wait expectantly for our Master
Jesus to arrive on the scene for the Finale. And not only that, but God himself
is right alongside to keep you steady and on track until things are all wrapped
up by Jesus. God, who got you started in this spiritual adventure, shares with
us the life of his Son and our Master Jesus. He will never give up on you.
Never forget that.
