There is Freedom…

where the spirit of the lord isFear.  Loneliness.  Pain.  Regret

All emotions that lurk around the dark corners of our minds…

In my life I have opened those doors all too many times, only to find more sadness, emptiness and sorrow!

I have learned that it is true.

” But He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness…”

2 Corinthians 12: 9

In weakness we find God…

Amazing…

My days are full of voices and decisions. The world is loud; constantly pulling and tugging;  But the only true voice that brings peace, hope, and understanding is the voice of our God..  So in my weakness; depression, fear or regret there is goodness!

I can stop the pulling… the tugging.. the loudness

And

just live for today…

My weakness turns into strength when I know I can’t do life alone.  I need God.  My strength is in God’s voice. His unconditional love that sets me free from bondage and regret;; and His quiet whispers to love others as we love ourselves, to live in harmony;

 to live in love…

    His unconditional love and goodness being poured into my heart… setting me free from the whispers of failure, pride or self-condemnation…

To know that we are here for a purpose.. that our lives matter and that the maker of heaven and earth is deeply involved in our lives..

That is a beautiful thing…

Dear Heavenly Father, Your goodness in my weakness is such a blessing, and I thank you for your gentle and loving touch.  When my thoughts go grim, and my hope begins to fade, what a Joy to know that that is my moment to seek Your beauty.. To stop whatever it is I am doing, and enter Your courts with thanksgiving and praise. My life is in your hands.  May Your strength flow through my veins and encourage my heart as I pray to be a source of encouragement and light to others that may struggle with the same emotions… How I pray for Your love to set them free..

Your love and beauty amaze me…

In Jesus Name,

Psalm 121: 1-3 ” I lift up my eyes to the hills; where does my help come from? My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.  He will not let your foot slip; He who watches over you will not slumber…”

Romans 8: 28   “And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.. ”

Isaiah 61: 3b ” To bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of gladness instead of mourning and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair…”

Live in Love,
