The Holy Spirit Spoke to ME!

First of all, I pray that you all had a wonderful thanksgiving.  Mine was filled with family, fun, laughter, and of course food!  During the past week, I was blessed to witness my youngest have her 7th birthday (thanksgiving child) and also my cousin’s (brother) 39th birthday.  The tree is up at the house, the elf is running around making my kids laugh and Christmas shopping has begun.

Last night as i was laying down, I had a sudden panic attack about the upcoming week and the uncertainty of what the future holds.  It was something that kept me up for a good hour.  I tried to think about the Lord and that he has everything under control but I was still thinking about everything.  Suddenly, as if a light switch was just turned on, I felt this calm run thru my body and i suddenly got excited.  My mind was filled with the thought that the Lord will show himself this week.

This morning, I noticed a lot more hits on the site today.  I had a wonderful morning meeting at work. I am getting the ball rolling on various projects and now I come across a saying that just fills my spirit with joy.


My worries stem from what i am currently doing.   I love what i am doing but at the same time, I always have these thoughts in the back of my mind if what i am doing is right, worth it, or even really beneficial to my family.  There are opportunities out there that i can take that would have my family in a much better position but every time I entertain even the thought of changing where i am, the Lord places an event that I can only experience here.

It all comes down to this…I love what I am doing but i am making sacrifices to stay here.  I can go somewhere else and be more stable (in the earthly sense) but will i still have the opportunity to say “I LOVE WHAT I AM DOING”?

I am excited to see what the Lord presents this week.  Thats one thing about our father…there is never a dull moment.  God bless you and all you cherish.

Daily Devotional for Feb 3, 2016

I have been coming across some excellent quotes from my morning devotionals.The first one comes from Joyce Meyers – Hearing from God Each Morning
“Don’t make serious decisions without waiting to make sure true peace abides within you.”
There was a time when I was working out and 3 miles into my run, I had a “vision” on what my future should be like. I let my mind and imagination take me to places that were exciting. I was so excited and could not wait for all this this to come to fruition. By the next day as I was getting ready for my day, I start to really evaluate all that I was thinking yesterday. It was only then that I realized that everything I was “excited” for would have had a negative affect on all the wonderful things I have already done in my life (personal and professional). I learned a valuable lesson that day. Take your time and examine your heart and mind to its deepest part to know if what you are thinking/feeling is coming from the lord. Talk to Him…ask HIM…
The Second quote comes from podcast on Jan 7 from Rick Warren.
Worry, lust, revenge is a misuse of your imagination
We cannot imagine how great he is, how much he loves you, cannot imagine what heaven is like. Think about things that are pure, love and admirable.
This really complements the first quote. The Lord wants us to use our imagination…we just have to use it in the right way.
Have a good day…God Bless and may the Lord use us all to create change in this world.
