| July 4th 2009 Freedom!!! Believe me, I am not perfect, but I am not under the law. I
am under grace. Eph.1:7 & 8 "In Him we have redemption through
His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the
riches of God's grace that he lavished on us with all wisdom and
understanding." I got to share this with several of my bluegrass
friends at the Father's Day Bluegrass Festival in Grass Valley
recently, (which is always held every year on that week-end! So
much fun, jammin' and music!!) And I pray that God will water
the imperishable seed that was planted in them. I want
them to know that most of all He loves...He loves like no
one does. My husband and I were talking about that the
other day and we both said the same thing, "I need to love
people better". I don't know about you but it can be a
challenge sometimes! (I am sure someone is saying
that about me!)
God says that over and over, that you can have all the gifts
in the world but if you don't have love, you don't have
anything! I Corinthians13:1 Love never fails!

| January 12, 2009 In my goals for this year, I believe the Lord is
asking me to really work on my character. He has been faithful to show me
things in myself He would like me to change, with His help. That's putting
it mildly! I strive to have Jesus as my example and that is the highest
standard, not comparing myself to others. He is a kind and loving
Father and is very patient with me. We are like letters that people read
when they see us (IICorin.3:2) I am careful to not fall into
self-condemnation for that is self-centered-ness and not God. When He says
He forgives you, it is done! (I John 1:9) My goal today is to be a
beautiful letter, so that when people "read" me they will see that I am
written not of ink, but with the Spirit of the living God. Be encouraged
because whom God loves He disciplines. (Hebrews 12:6-8) P. S. By
the way, the Aglow Meeting was wonderful! Many women and a 3 men were
blessed by the Lord. |
| December 6, 2008 Hi Everyone!
I am so excited to see what the Lord is going to do at the Women's
Aglow Meeting this Thursday, December 11. No one will be more surprised
and thrilled than me! My husband Randy will be there with me, playing the
mandolin. There has been an anointing on his playing since he first picked
it up many years ago, so I hope you can make it!
Joy to you during this Christmas season! I hope that you will stop and
remember as I frequently have to, and pray this scripture, "Seek ye first
the Kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things will be
added unto You! "Matthew 6:33
Also, I read years ago that Ann Graham Lotz asked Jesus what He wanted
for a present every year: something on the inside of us. For instance, one
year I heard the Lord say, "This year let your light shine" Another year
He said "I want you to ask me for more of My Love for others". Get it? So
I challenge you to ask God this year! |
