God is good all the time…..
“But let him who boasts boast about this: that he understands and knows me, that I am the Lord, who exercises kindness, justice and righteousness on earth, for in these I delight.” – Jeremiah 9:24
I have spent this season….
Investing….
Investing in my children….
Investing in my relationship with the Lord….
Investing in those who have invested in me….
Giving back where I can….
Investing in new relationships….
Just trying to be the best version of me….
The version God designed for me to be….
His design….
Not my wishes for His design….
Not my hopes for my future….
His design….
His plan….
His future for me….
I give it all to him….
Some cannot understand….
Some are critical in their thoughts….
I don’t listen to the enemy….
When he uses those to discourage me….
I am following God….
God and His calling on my life….
He has put it heavy on my heart to “Reach more people”….
About His mercy….
His grace….
His goodness….
His faithfulness in my life….
Reach more people…..
I don’t know what that means….
Or how to do it….
But He is guiding me….
One step at a time….
One day at a time….
He has me working very hard in preparation….
Preparation for His calling….
His calling for my future….
My future that will glorify Him….
And honor her…..
Preparing for what He has in store….
All I know is that I am going to be serving Him in a greater capacity than ever….
Reaching more people…
I have such amazing peace….
I am not concerned with those who don’t understand…..
I am not living to please them….
I am living to serve Him….
To glorify Him…
In every thought…
In every word….
In every deed….
Every intention….
With all that I am….
To advance His Kingdom….
I am doing exactly what I am supposed to be doing….
He has called me to raise my 5 world changers….
To reach more people…
That is my calling….
Reach more people….
We were at cross country practice….
I was running with my youngest….
He is eight years old….
The others went ahead….
At their own pace….
We had taken a few months off…
It was a little harder than usual….
We came to an incline….
He slowed of a moment….
Other than the pants of heavy breathing…
It had been quiet….
It had been silent….
He slowed for a moment….
The silence was broken by his words….
“The joy of the Lord is my strength” ….
“I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me”….
Louder….
His pace picking back up a little….
“The joy of the Lord is my strength” ….
“I can do all things through Christ which strengthens me”….
We crest the hill stronger than we started….
I was right where I belong….
At that moment….
Right where I belong….
Raising world changers….
World changers that will reach more people….
That will make a difference for Him…
I gave a testimony to a room of believers on Sunday….
It was a testimony of His goodness….
A testimony of His faithfulness….
In my life….
In 2023….
The year my Healed Wife went to be with the Lord….
Yes….
A testimony of gratitude….
A testimony of love….
A testimony of joy….
A testimony of peace….
A testimony of faithfulness….
I was reaching more people….
I kept it short….
Time was limited….
The testimony is hours long….
To cover it all….
Hours….
Simply…..
My Healed Wife is with Jesus…
My children and I have grown our relationship with the Lord….
And with each other….
This family is a three braided chord….
It cannot be broken….
The children….
Me….
And the Lord….
A three braided chord….
Our relationship with Him has gone deep….
Intimate…
Something I don’t ever want to end….
I just want to be closer….
I hunger for more….
To know Him deeper….
To understand His love….
Greater than I already do….
This is what happened in 2023….
I would never change it….
What the enemy meant for evil….
The Lord used for good….
The enemy lost in 2023….
In my life….
And my children’s lives….
He lost….
We were victorious in the Lord….
I have never had such amazing expectations….
I know….
If I keep giving it to Him….
EVERY detail….
Giving it to Him….
I have a future….
I have hope….
He will prosper me….
In His Kingdom….
He will redefine prosperity….
To a definition I could have never comprehended….
Until I began to understand….
Understand His love for me….
His love for my children….
His love for you…..
His perfect love….
That is for anyone….
Anyone who will receive it….
Freely….
Freely He gives….
We did nothing to earn it….
We do not deserve it….
He died so we can have it….
All we have to do is receive….
In faith….
It is by His grace….
By His grace we are saved….
By his grace we are forgiven….
What is grace….
Not getting what we deserve….
Grace is Him taking on our sins…
So that we may be forgiven….
Grace is being washed clean….
By the blood of Jesus….
Grace is Him remembering our sins no more….
Grace is not getting what we deserve for our sins….
Grace is freely given….
We just have to receive by faith….
He did all the work….
We just have to accept it….
We all have eternal life….
The decision is where do we want to spend it…..
There is not a big checklist….
We don’t have to be perfect….
We cannot be perfect….
He is giving freely….
All we have to do is receive the gift….
The gift of love….
To walk in eternal love forever….
The gift of grace….
This has been a beautiful horrible experience….
I have been a peaceful wreck….
The beautiful and the peaceful….
Supplied by the love of Jesus….
It was a horrible year and I am a wreck without Jesus….
He has been so faithful….
I have embraced His love….
I seek to understand Him more every day….
…. All the time God is good
